2 Corinthians 3
New Creation Bible for Muslims
1Are we beginning again to commend ourselves? or need we, as do some, epistles of commendation to you or from you? 2Ye are our epistle, written in our hearts, known and read of all men; 3being made manifest that ye are an epistle of Al-Masih, ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living Elokim; not in tables of stone, but in tables that are hearts of flesh.

4And such confidence have we through al-Masih toward Elokim: 5not that we are sufficient of ourselves, to account anything as from ourselves; but our sufficiency is from Elokim; 6who also made us sufficient as ministers of a new covenant; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.

7But if the ministration of death, written, and engraven on stones, came with glory, so that the children of Israel could not look stedfastly upon the face of Musa for the glory of his face; which glory was passing away: 8how shall not rather the ministration of the spirit be with glory? 9For if the ministration of condemnation hath glory, much rather doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory. 10For verily that which hath been made glorious hath not been made glorious in this respect, by reason of the glory that surpasseth. 11For if that which passeth away was with glory, much more that which remaineth is in glory.

12Having therefore such a hope, we use great boldness of speech, 13and are not as Musa, who put a veil upon his face, that the children of Israel should not look stedfastly on the end of that which was passing away: 14but their minds were hardened: for until this very day at the reading of the old covenant the same veil remaineth, it not being revealed to them that it is done away in Al-Masih. 15But unto this day, whensoever Musa is read, a veil lieth upon their heart. 16But whensoever it shall turn to HaAdon, the veil is taken away. 17Now HaAdon is the Spirit: and where the Spirit of HaAdon is, there is liberty. 18But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of HaAdon, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from HaAdon the Spirit.
