We are not like Moses. He used to cover his face with a veil. That was to keep the people of Israel from seeing the end of what was passing away.

不像摩西将帕子蒙在脸上，叫以色列人不能定睛看到那将废者的结局。

不像摩西将面纱蒙在脸上，使以色列人不能定睛看到那逐渐褪色的荣光的结局。

不像摩西将面纱蒙在脸上，使以色列人不能定睛看到那逐渐褪色的荣光的结局。

不像摩西将帕子蒙在脸上，以免以色列人看见那渐渐消逝的荣光。

不像摩西那样，把帕子蒙在脸上，使以色列人看不见那短暂的荣光的结局。

我们不像摩西那样，他把帕子蒙在脸上，使以色列子民不能注视那渐渐消失的荣光的结局。

不像摩西將帕子蒙在臉上，叫以色列人不能定睛看到那將廢者的結局。

不像摩西將面紗蒙在臉上，使以色列人不能定睛看到那逐漸褪色的榮光的結局。

不像摩西將面紗蒙在臉上，使以色列人不能定睛看到那逐漸褪色的榮光的結局。

不像摩西將帕子蒙在臉上，以免以色列人看見那漸漸消逝的榮光。

不像摩西那樣，把帕子蒙在臉上，使以色列人看不見那短暫的榮光的結局。

不像摩西將帕子蒙在臉上，使以色列人不能定睛看到那漸漸消逝的榮光的結局。

我們不像摩西那樣，他把帕子蒙在臉上，使以色列子民不能注視那漸漸消失的榮光的結局。

非如摩西蒙帕於面、使以色列人不得直視暫存者之終、

非如摩西蒙帕於面、以色列人不得窺暫有者之意、

非如摩西以帕蒙面、使以色列人不得觀及將廢者之終、

非同摩西之以帕蒙面、惟恐義塞子孫逆睹其暫有制度之結局也。

We are not like Moses, who would put a veil over his face to prevent the Israelites from seeing the end of what was passing away.

not like Moses, who would put a veil over his face so that the Israelites might not gaze at the outcome of what was being brought to an end.

We are not like Moses, who put a veil over his face so the people of Israel would not see the glory, even though it was destined to fade away.

We are not like Moses, who used to put a veil over his face to prevent the Israelites from gazing steadily until the end of the glory of what was being set aside,

and we are not like Moses, 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.

unlike Moses, who put a veil over his face so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the end of what was passing away.

and are not as Moses, 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:

We are not like Moses, who used to put a veil over his face so that the Israelites could not stare at the end of what was fading away,

And not as Moses,[ which] put a vail over his face, that the children of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished:

and not like Moses who used to put a veil over his face to keep the Israelites from staring at the result of the glory that was made ineffective.

and not as Moses, who put a veil on his face, that the children of Israel wouldn’t look steadfastly on the end of that which was passing away.

Moses finished speaking to them. Then he covered his face with a veil.But when he would go to speak with the Lord, he would remove the veil. He would keep it off until he came out. Then he would tell the people what the Lord had commanded.They would see that his face was shining. So Moses would cover his face with the veil again. He would keep it on until he went in again to speak with the Lord.

The Law was written in letters on stone. Even though it was a way of serving God, it led to death. But even that way of serving God came with glory. The glory lasted for only a short time. Even so, the people of Israel couldn’t look at Moses’ face very long.

Christ himself is our peace. He has made Jews and Gentiles into one group of people. He has destroyed the hatred that was like a wall between us.Through his body on the cross, Christ set aside the law with all its commands and rules. He planned to create one new people out of Jews and Gentiles. He wanted to make peace between them.

They are only a shadow of the things to come. But what is real is found in Christ.

Before faith in Christ came, we were guarded by the law. We were locked up until this faith was made known.So the law was put in charge of us until Christ came. He came so that we might be made right with God by believing in Christ.

Christ has fulfilled everything the law was meant to do. So now everyone who believes can be right with God.

The law is only a shadow of the good things that are coming. It is not the real things themselves. The same sacrifices have to be offered over and over again. They must be offered year after year. That’s why the law can never make perfect those who come near to worship.If the law could, wouldn’t the sacrifices have stopped being offered? The worshipers would have been made“ clean” once and for all time. They would not have felt guilty for their sins anymore.But those offerings remind people of their sins every year.It isn’t possible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.So when Christ came into the world, he said,“ You didn’t want sacrifices and offerings. Instead, you prepared a body for me.You weren’t pleased with burnt offerings and sin offerings.Then I said,‘ Here I am. It is written about me in the book. I have come to do what you want, my God.’ ”( Psalm 40:6–8)First Christ said,“ You didn’t want sacrifices and offerings. You didn’t want burnt offerings and sin offerings. You weren’t pleased with them.” He said this even though they were offered in keeping with the law.Then he said,“ Here I am. I have come to do what you want.” He did away with the shadow of the good things that were coming. He did it to put in place the good things themselves.
