Hebrews 12:19-24
19and to the 1blast of a trumpet and the 2sound of words which sound was such that those who heard 3begged that no further word be spoken to them. 20For they could not bear the command, “4If even a beast touches the mountain, it will be stoned.” 21And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, “5I am full of fear and trembling.” 22But 6you have come to Mount Zion and to 7the city of 8the living God, 9the heavenly Jerusalem, and to 10myriads of 11angels, 23to the general assembly and 12church of the firstborn who 13are enrolled in heaven, and to God, 14the Judge of all, and to the 15spirits of the righteous made perfect, 24and to Jesus, the 16mediator of a new covenant, and to the 17sprinkled blood, which speaks better than 18the blood of Abel.
