2 Corinthians 3:13-15

Expanded Bible

¹³We are not like Moses, who put a ·covering [veil] over his face so the ·Israelites [^Lchildren of Israel] would not see it [Ex. 34:29–35]. The glory was ·disappearing [fading; or made ineffective], and Moses did not want them to see it end. ¹⁴But their minds were ·closed [stubborn; hardened], and even today that same ·covering [veil] ·hides the meaning [^Lremains] when they read the old ·agreement [covenant]. That covering is ·taken away [^Lnot lifted, because it is removed] only through Christ. ¹⁵Even today, when they read ·the law of Moses [^LMoses], there is a ·covering over [^Lveil laying upon] their ·minds [hearts].

New International Version

¹³We are not like Moses, who would put a veil over his face^(A) to prevent the Israelites from seeing the end of what was passing away. ¹⁴But their minds were made dull,^(B) for to this day the same veil remains when the old covenant^(C) is read.^(D) It has not been removed, because only in Christ is it taken away. ¹⁵Even to this day when Moses is read, a veil covers their hearts.
