2 Corinthians 3:9 in context

  1. 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 Moses for the glory of his face; which glory was passing away:
  2. 8how shall not rather the ministration of the spirit be with glory?
  3. 9For if the ministration of condemnation hath glory, much rather doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory.
  4. 10For verily that which hath been made glorious hath not been made glorious in this respect, by reason of the glory that surpasseth.
  5. 11For if that which passeth away was with glory, much more that which remaineth is in glory.
