The Glorious Company

18 For you have not come1 to athe mountain that may be touched and that burned with fire, and to blackness and2 darkness and tempest,  
19 and the sound of a trumpet and the voice of words, so that those who heard it abegged that the word should not be spoken to them anymore.  
20 (For they could not endure what was commanded: a“And if so much as a beast touches the mountain, it shall be stoned1 or shot with an arrow.”  
21 And so terrifying was the sight that Moses said, a“I am exceedingly afraid and trembling.”)  
22 But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, to an innumerable company of angels,
23 to the1 general assembly and church of athe firstborn bwho are registered in heaven, to God cthe Judge of all, to the spirits of just men dmade perfect,  
24 to Jesus athe Mediator of the new covenant, and to bthe blood of sprinkling that speaks better things cthan that of Abel.  

Hear the Heavenly Voice

25 See that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For aif they did not escape who refused Him who spoke on earth, much more shall we not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from heaven,  
26 whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, a“Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also heaven.”
