V-PAI-3S 7 Now if the ministry of death, which was engraved in letters on stone, came with such glory that the Israelites could not gaze at the face of Moses because of its fleeting glory,Εἰ If COND δὲ now CONJ ἡ the T-NSF διακονία ministry N-NSF τοῦ <the> T-GSM θανάτου of death N-GSM ἐν in PREP γράμμασιν letters N-DPN ἐντετυπωμένη engraved V-RPP-NSF λίθοις stones N-DPM ἐγενήθη was produced V-2AOI-3S ἐν in PREP δόξῃ, glory, N-DSF ὥστε so as for CONJ μὴ not PRT-N δύνασθαι to be able V-PNN ἀτενίσαι to look intently V-AAN τοὺς the T-APM υἱοὺς sons N-APM Ἰσραὴλ of Israel N-GSM-L εἰς into PREP τὸ the T-ASN πρόσωπον face N-ASN Μωϋσέως of Moses N-GSM-P διὰ on account of PREP τὴν the T-ASF δόξαν glory N-ASF τοῦ of the T-GSN προσώπου face N-GSN αὐτοῦ of him P-GSM τὴν which T-ASF καταργουμένην, is fading, V-PPP-ASF 8 will not the ministry of the Spirit be even more glorious?πῶς how PRT-I οὐχὶ surely PRT-N μᾶλλον more ADV ἡ the T-NSF διακονία ministry N-NSF τοῦ of the T-GSN πνεύματος Spirit N-GSN ἔσται will be V-FDI-3S ἐν in PREP δόξῃ; glory?
