2 Corinthians 3:6

First Nations Version

For it is Creator himself who has chosen and prepared us to tell others the meaning and purpose of his new peace treaty. This new peace treaty does not depend on written words, but in what the Spirit says. For the peace treaty written as law ended in death, but what the Spirit writes on our hearts brings life.
