Hebrews 12:18-26

Murdock(i) 18 For ye have not come to the fire that burned, and the tangible mount; nor to the darkness and obscurity and tempest; 19 nor to the sound of the trumpet, and the voice of words, which they who heard, entreated that it might no more be spoken to them; 20 for they could not endure what was commanded. And even a beast, if it approached the mountain, was to be stoned. 21 And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I fear and tremble. 22 But ye have come to Mount Zion, and to the city of the living God, the Jerusalem that is in heaven; and to the assemblies of myriads of angels; 23 and to the church of the first-born, who are enrolled in heaven and to God the judge of all; and to the spirits of the just, who are perfected; 24 and to Jesus, the Mediator of the new covenant; and to the sprinkling, of his blood, which speaketh better than that of Abel. 25 Beware, therefore, lest ye refuse to hear him who speaketh with you. For if they escaped not, who refused to hear him who spake with them on the earth, how much more shall we not, if we refuse to hear him who speaketh with us from heaven? 26 Whose voice then shook the earth; but now he hath promised, and said, yet again once more, I will shake not the earth only, but also heaven.
