Hebrews 12:18-21
Lexham English Bible
18 For you have not come to something that can be touched, and to a burning fire, and to darkness, and to gloom, and to a whirlwind, 19 and to the noise of a trumpet, and to the sound of words which those who heard begged that not another word be spoken to them. 20 For they could not endure what was commanded: “If even an animal touches the mountain, it must be stoned.”[a] 21 And the spectacle was so terrifying that Moses said, “I am terrified and trembling.”[b]
