Hebrews 12:18-22
181For you have not come to 2a mountain that can be touched and to a blazing fire, and to darkness and gloom and whirlwind,
19and to the 3blast of a trumpet and the 4sound of words, which sound was such that those who heard 5begged that no further word be spoken to them.
20For they could not 6cope with the command, “7If even an animal touches the mountain, it shall be stoned.”
21And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, “8I am terrified and trembling.”
22But 9you have come to Mount Zion and to 10the city of 11the living God, 12the heavenly Jerusalem, and to 13myriads of 14angels,
