20 They did not want to hear the command: “If anything, even an animal, touches the mountain, it must be put to death with stones.”[a] 21 What they saw was so terrible that Moses said, “I am shaking with fear.”[b]
22 But you have come to Mount Zion,[c] to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem. You have come to thousands of angels gathered together with joy.
