2 Corinthians 3:14-16
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
14 But[a] their minds were hardened[b], for until this very day the same[c] veil remains on the reading of the old covenant— it not being unveiled because[d] it passes-away[e] in Christ. 15 Indeed[f], until today whenever Moses is being read, a veil lies on their heart. 16 But whenever it[g] turns to the Lord, the veil is taken-away.
