The Sabbath

12 And the Lord said to Moses, 13 “You are to speak to the people of Israel and say, ‘Above all you shall keep my Sabbaths, for this is a sign between me and you throughout your generations, that you may know that I, the Lord, sanctify you. 14 You shall keep the Sabbath, because it is holy for you. Everyone who profanes it shall be put to death. (A)Whoever does any work on it, that soul shall be cut off from among his people. 15 (B)Six days shall work be done, but (C)the seventh day is a Sabbath of solemn rest, holy to the Lord. (D)Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day shall be put to death. 16 Therefore the people of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, observing the Sabbath throughout their generations, as a covenant forever. 17 (E)It is a sign forever between me and the people of Israel that (F)in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and (G)on the seventh day he rested and was refreshed.’”
