Hebrews 12:25-27
1599 Geneva Bible
25 [a]See that ye despise not him that speaketh: for if they escaped not which refused him, that spake on earth: much more shall we not escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven.
26 [b]Whose voice then shook the earth, and now hath declared, saying, (A)Yet [c]once more will I shake, not the earth only, but also heaven.
27 And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things which are shaken, as of things which are made with hands, that the things which are not shaken, may remain.
