But if the ^(C1)ministry of death, engraved ^(C2)in letters on stones, came ^(F1)with glory ^(C3)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,

how will the ministry of the Spirit fail to be even more with glory?

For if ^(C1)the ministry of condemnation has glory, much more does the ^(C2)ministry of righteousness excel in glory.

For indeed what had glory in this case has no glory, because of the glory that surpasses it.

For if that which fades away was ^(F1)with glory, much more that which remains is in glory.

^(C1)Therefore, having such a hope, ^(C2)we use great boldness in our speech,

and we are not like Moses, ^(C1)who used to put a veil over his face so that the sons of Israel would not stare at the end of what was fading away.
