2 Corinthians 3:7-11
Christian Standard Bible
New Covenant Ministry
7 Now if the ministry that brought death, chiseled in letters on stones, came with glory,(A) so that the Israelites were not able to gaze steadily at Moses’s face because of its glory, which was set aside, 8 how will the ministry of the Spirit not be more glorious? 9 For if the ministry that brought condemnation had glory, the ministry that brings righteousness overflows with even more glory. 10 In fact, what had been glorious is not glorious now by comparison because of the glory that surpasses it. 11 For if what was set aside(B) was glorious, what endures will be even more glorious.

2 Corinthians 3:7-11
New American Standard Bible
7 But if the (A)ministry of death, engraved (B)in letters on stones, came [a]with glory (C)so that the sons of Israel could not look intently at the face of Moses because of the glory of his face, fading as it was, 8 how will the ministry of the Spirit fail to be even more with glory? 9 For if (D)the ministry of condemnation has glory, much more does the (E)ministry of righteousness excel in glory. 10 For indeed what had glory in this case has no glory, because of the glory that surpasses it. 11 For if that which fades away was [b]with glory, much more that which remains is in glory.
