Contrast of Sinai and Zion
18 (A)For you have not come to (B)a mountain that can be touched and to a blazing fire, and to darkness and gloom and whirlwind, 19 and to the (C)blast of a trumpet and the (D)sound of words which was such that those who heard (E)begged that no further word be spoken to them. 20 For they could not bear what was being commanded, “(F)If even a beast touches the mountain, it will be stoned.” 21 And so terrible was what appeared, that Moses said, “(G)I am full of fear and trembling.”

Evangelical Heritage Version
You Have Come to Mount Zion
18 You have not come to a mountain that can be touched[a] and to burning fire, to darkness, to gloom, to a raging storm, 19 to the sound of a trumpet, and to a voice that spoke. Those who heard the voice asked that not one more word be added, 20 because they could not endure what was commanded: “If even an animal touches the mountain, it must be stoned.”[b] 21 The sight was so terrifying that even Moses said, “I am trembling with fear.”[c]
