Hebrews 12:18-29

18For ye are not comeG4334 unto a mount that might be touchedG5584, and that burnedG2545 with fireG4442, and unto blackness, and darknessG2217, and tempest, 19and the soundG5456 of a trumpetG4536, and the voiceG5456 of wordsG3056; which voiceG5456 they that heardG191 entreated that no wordG3056 more should be spoken unto them; 20for they could not endure that which was enjoined, If even a beastG2342 touchG2345 the mountainG3735, it shall be stoned; 21and so fearfulG5398 wasG1510 the appearance, that MosesG3475 saidG3004, I exceedingly fear and quake: 22but ye are comeG4334 unto mountG3735 ZionG4622, and unto the cityG4172 of the livingG2198 GodG2316, the heavenlyG2032 JerusalemG2419, and to innumerable hosts of angelsG32, 23to the general assemblyG1577 and churchG1577 of the firstbornG4416 who are enrolled in heavenG3772, and to GodG2316 the JudgeG2923 of all, and to the spiritsG4151 of justG1342 men madeG5048 perfectG5048, 24and to JesusG2424 the mediatorG3316 of a newG3501 covenantG1242, and to the bloodG129 of sprinkling that speaketh better than that of AbelG6. 25SeeG991 that ye refuseG3868 not him that speaketh. For if they escapedG1628 not when they refused him that warnedG5537 them on earthG1093, muchG4183 moreG3123 shall not we escapeG1628 who turnG654 awayG654 from him that warneth from heavenG3772: 26whose voiceG5456 then shook the earthG1093: but nowG1161 he hath promisedG1861, sayingG3004, Yet onceG530 moreG2089 will I make to tremble not the earthG1093 onlyG3440, but alsoG2532 the heavenG3772. 27And this word, Yet onceG530 moreG2089, signifieth the removing of those things that are shakenG4531, as of things that have been madeG4160, that those things which are not shakenG4531 may remainG3306. 28Wherefore, receiving a kingdomG932 that cannot be shaken, let us have graceG5485, whereby we may offer service well-pleasing to GodG2316 with reverenceG2124 and awe: 29for our GodG2316 is a consuming fireG4442.
