Hebrews

Hebrews 12:26–28

²⁶At that time His voice shook the earth, but now He has promised, “Once more I will shake not only the earth, but heaven as well.”^j ²⁷The words “Once more” signify the removal of what can be shaken — that is, created things — so that the unshakable may remain.

²⁸Therefore, since we are receiving an unshakable kingdom, let us be filled with gratitude, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe.
