2 Corinthians 3:17-18

3:17 Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is present, ³  there is freedom. 3:18 And we all, with unveiled faces reflecting the glory of the Lord, ⁴  are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another, ⁵  which is from ⁶  the Lord, who is the Spirit. ⁷ 

[3:6]  ¹ tn Or “competent.”

[3:6]  ² sn This new covenant is promised in Jer 31:31-34; 32:40.

[3:18]  ⁶ tn Grk “from glory to glory.”

[3:18]  ⁷ tn Grk “just as from.”
