Hebrews 12:18-29

18For ye have not come to [the mount] that might be touched and was all on fire, and to obscurity, and darkness, and tempest, 19and trumpet's sound, and voice of words; which they that heard, excusing themselves, declined [the] word being addressed to them any more: 20(for they were not able to bear what was enjoined: And if a beast should touch the mountain, it shall be stoned; 21and, so fearful was the sight, Moses said, I am exceedingly afraid and full of trembling;) 22but ye have come to mount Zion; and to [the] city of [the] living 1God, heavenly Jerusalem; and to myriads of angels, 23the universal gathering; and to [the] assembly of the firstborn [who are] registered in heaven; and to 2God, judge of all; and to [the] spirits of just [men] made perfect; 24and to Jesus, mediator of a new covenant; and to [the] blood of sprinkling, speaking better than Abel. 25See that ye refuse not him that speaks. For if those did not escape who had refused him who uttered the oracles on earth, much more we who turn away from him [who does so] from heaven: 26whose voice then shook the earth; but now he has promised, saying, Yet once will I shake not only the earth, but also the heaven. 27But this Yet once, signifies the removing of what is shaken, as being made, that what is not shaken may remain. 28Wherefore let us, receiving a kingdom not to be shaken, have grace, by which let us serve 3God acceptably with reverence and fear. 29For also our 4God [is] a consuming fire.
