²⁶ At that time his voice shook the earth,^(A) but now he has promised, “Once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens.”^{[a](B) 27} The words “once more” indicate the removing of what can be shaken^(C)—that is, created things—so that what cannot be shaken may remain.

²⁸ Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken,^(D) let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe,^{(E) 29} for our “God is a consuming fire.”^[b](F)

⁶ “This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘In a little while^(A) I will once more shake the heavens and the earth,^(B) the sea and the dry land. ⁷ I will shake all nations, and what is desired^(C) by all nations will come, and I will fill this house^(D) with glory,^(E)’ says the Lord Almighty.
