22 But ye have come to mount Sion, and to the city of the living God, heavenly Jerusalem, and to myriads of angels, 23 To the assembly of people, and church of the firstborn, transcribed in the heavens, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of the just perfected, 24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, speaking better things than Abel. 25 See that ye refuse not him speaking. For if they escaped not, having refused him giving an intimation of the divine will on earth, much more we, who having turned back from him from the heavens: 26 Whose voice then shook the earth: and now he has proclaimed, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also the heaven. 27 And the Yet once more, makes manifest the transferring the things shaken, as of things made, that the things not being shaken might remain. 28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom unmoved; we should have grace by which we might serve God acceptably, with reverence and circumspection: 29 For also our God is a consuming fire.
