2 Corinthians 3:18

English Standard Version

18 And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord,[1] are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another.[2] For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit. (Ps 84:7; Joh 17:24; Ro 8:29; 1Co 13:12; 1Co 15:49; 2Co 4:4; 2Co 4:6; 1Ti 1:11) 

New International Version

18 And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate[1] the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit. 

New International Reader’s Version

18 None of our faces are covered with a veil. All of us can see the Lord’s glory and think deeply about it. So we are being changed to become more like him so that we have more and more glory. And this glory comes from the Lord, who is the Holy Spirit. 

King James Version

18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.
