²⁴ And Jehovah said unto him, Go, get thee down; and thou shalt come up, thou, and Aaron with thee: but let not the priests and the people break through to come up unto Jehovah, lest he break forth upon them.

¹² And thou shalt set bounds unto the people round about, saying, Take heed to yourselves, that ye go not up into the mount, or touch the border of it: whosoever toucheth the mount shall be surely put to death:

¹⁸ For ye are not come unto `a mount' that might be touched, and that burned with fire, and unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,

¹⁹ and the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which `voice' they that heard entreated that no word more should be spoken unto them;

²⁰ for they could not endure that which was enjoined, If even a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned;

²¹ and so fearful was the appearance, `that' Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:

²² but ye are come unto mount Zion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable hosts of angels,

²³ to the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,

²⁴ and to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaketh better than `that of' Abel.

²⁵ See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not when they refused him that warned `them' on earth, much more `shall not' we `escape' who turn away from him that `warneth' from heaven:

¹⁹ Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holy place by the blood of Jesus,

²⁰ by the way which he dedicated for us, a new and living way, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;

²¹ and `having' a great priest over the house of God;

²² let us draw near with a true heart in fulness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience: and having our body washed with pure water,

¹⁶ Let us therefore draw near with boldness unto the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace to help `us' in time of need.

²² But the scriptures shut up all things under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.

¹⁹ What then is the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise hath been made; `and it was' ordained through angels by the hand of a mediator.

¹⁰ For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one who continueth not in all things that are written in the book of the law, to do them.

¹¹ Now that no man is justified by the law before God, is evident: for, The righteous shall live by faith;

⁷ But if the ministration of death, written, `and' engraven on stones, came with glory, so that the children of Israel could not look stedfastly upon the face of Moses for the glory of his face; which `glory' was passing away:

⁸ how shall not rather the ministration of the spirit be with glory?

⁹ For if the ministration of condemnation hath glory, much rather doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory.

¹⁵ for the law worketh wrath; but where there is no law, neither is there transgression.

¹⁷ For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

¹⁶ The law and the prophets `were' until John: from that time the gospel of the kingdom of God is preached, and every man entereth violently into it.

²⁴ Strive to enter in by the narrow door: for many, I say unto you, shall seek to enter in, and shall not be able.

¹² And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and men of violence take it by force.

⁹ Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel.

¹ And he said unto Moses, Come up unto Jehovah, thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; and worship ye afar off:

²¹ And Jehovah said unto Moses, Go down, charge the people, lest they break through unto Jehovah to gaze, and many of them perish.

²² And let the priests also, that come near to Jehovah, sanctify themselves, lest Jehovah break forth upon them.

²⁹ for our God is a consuming fire.
