22 Instead, you have come to Mount Zion, to the city of the living God (the heavenly Jerusalem), to myriads of angels, a festive gathering,(A) 23 to the assembly of the firstborn whose names have been written[a] in heaven, to a Judge, who is God of all, to the spirits of righteous people made perfect,(B) 24 and to Jesus, the mediator(C) of a new covenant,(D) and to the sprinkled blood, which says better things than the blood of Abel.(E)

Hebrews 12:22-24
New Living Translation
22 No, you have come to Mount Zion, to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to countless thousands of angels in a joyful gathering. 23 You have come to the assembly of God’s firstborn children, whose names are written in heaven. You have come to God himself, who is the judge over all things. You have come to the spirits of the righteous ones in heaven who have now been made perfect. 24 You have come to Jesus, the one who mediates the new covenant between God and people, and to the sprinkled blood, which speaks of forgiveness instead of crying out for vengeance like the blood of Abel.
