In the King James Version: vail

Derivation: from G2572 (καλύπτω);

2 Corinthians 3:13 We are not like Moses, who would put a veil over his face to keep the Israelites from gazing at the end of what was fading away.
2 Corinthians 3:14 But their minds were closed. For to this day the same veil remains at the reading of the old covenant. It has not been lifted, because only in Christ can it be removed.
2 Corinthians 3:15 And even to this day when Moses is read, a veil covers their hearts.
2 Corinthians 3:16 But whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.
