Hebrews 12:18-29 - A Kingdom That Cannot Be Shaken

¹⁸ For ye have not approached - unto, a searching and scorching fire, and gloom, and mist, and tempest, ¹⁹ And a trumpets peal, - and a sound of things spoken: - from which they who heard excused themselves, lest there should be added to them, a word; ²⁰ For they could not bear, that which was being enjoined, - and, should a beast be touching the mountain, it shall be stoned; ²¹ And, so fearful was that which was showing itself, Moses, said - I am terrified, and do tremble l ²² But ye have approached - unto Zion's mountain, and unto the city of a Living God, a heavenly Jerusalem, - and unto myriads of messengers, ²³ in high festival, - and unto an assembly of firstborn ones, enrolled in the heavens, - and unto God, judge of all, - and unto the spirits of righteous ones made perfect, - ²⁴ And unto the mediator of a new covenant, Jesus, - and unto the blood of sprinkling, more excellently speaking, than, Abel.

²⁵ Beware, lest ye excuse yourselves from him that speaketh; for, if, they escaped not, who excused themselves from him who on earth was warning, how much less, shall, we, who from him that warneth from the heavens, do turn ourselves away: ²⁶ Whose voice shook the earth, then, but, now, hath he promised, saying - Yet once for all, I, will shake - not only the earth, but, also the heaven. ²⁷ But, the saying, Yet once for all, maketh clear the removal of the things which can be shaken, as of things done with, - that they may remain, which cannot be shaken. ²⁸ Wherefore, seeing that, of a kingdom not to be shaken, we are receiving possession, let us have gratitude - whereby we may be rendering divine service well-pleasingly unto God, with reverence and awe; ²⁹ For, even our God, is a consuming fire.
