4 The god(A) of this age(B) has blinded(C) the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ,(D) who is the image of God.(E) 5 For what we preach is not ourselves,(F) but Jesus Christ as Lord,(G) and ourselves as your servants(H) for Jesus’ sake. 6 For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,”[a](I) made his light shine in our hearts(J) to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ.(K)

2 Corinthians 3:14-18
New International Version
14 But their minds were made dull,(A) for to this day the same veil remains when the old covenant(B) is read.(C) It has not been removed, because only in Christ is it taken away. 15 Even to this day when Moses is read, a veil covers their hearts. 16 But whenever anyone turns to the Lord,(D) the veil is taken away.(E) 17 Now the Lord is the Spirit,(F) and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.(G) 18 And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate[a](H) the Lord’s glory,(I) are being transformed into his image(J) with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.

2 Corinthians 3:14-18
King James Version
14 But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ.
15 But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart.
16 Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away.
17 Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

10 The Lord has brought over you a deep sleep:(A)
He has sealed your eyes(B) (the prophets);(C)
he has covered your heads (the seers).(D)
11 For you this whole vision(E) is nothing but words sealed(F) in a scroll. And if you give the scroll to someone who can read, and say, “Read this, please,” they will answer, “I can’t; it is sealed.” 12 Or if you give the scroll to someone who cannot read, and say, “Read this, please,” they will answer, “I don’t know how to read.”
