Hebrews 12:25-29
English Standard Version
25 See that you do not refuse him who is speaking. For (A)if they did not escape when they refused him who warned them on earth, much less will we escape if we reject him who warns from heaven. 26 At that time (B)his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, (C)“Yet once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens.” 27 This phrase, “Yet once more,” indicates (D)the removal of things that are shaken—that is, things that have been made—in order that the things that cannot be shaken may remain. 28 Therefore let us be grateful for receiving (E)a kingdom that cannot be shaken, and thus (F)let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe, 29 for our (G)God is a consuming fire.

New American Standard Bible
The Unshaken Kingdom
25 (A)See to it that you do not refuse Him who is (B)speaking. For (C)if those did not escape when they (D)refused him who (E)warned them on earth, [a]much less will we escape who turn away from Him who (F)warns us from heaven. 26 And (G)His voice shook the earth then, but now He has promised, saying, “(H)Yet once more I will shake not only the earth, but also the heaven.” 27 This expression, “Yet once more,” denotes (I)the removing of those things which can be shaken, as of created things, so that those things which cannot be shaken may remain. 28 Therefore, since we receive a (J)kingdom which cannot be shaken, let’s [b]show gratitude, by which we may (K)offer to God an acceptable service with reverence and awe; 29 for (L)our God is a consuming fire.
