Exodus 16:23-29
Legacy Standard Bible
23 And he said to them, “This is what Yahweh has spoken: (A)Tomorrow is a sabbath observance, a holy sabbath to Yahweh. Bake what you will bake and boil what you will boil, and (B)all that is in excess [a]put aside to be kept until morning.” 24 So they [b]put it aside until morning, as Moses had commanded, and (C)it did not become foul nor was there any worm in it. 25 And Moses said, “Eat it today, for today is a sabbath to Yahweh; today you will not find it in the field. 26 (D)Six days you shall gather it, but on the seventh day, the sabbath, there will be [c]none.”
27 Now it happened on the seventh day, that some of the people went out to gather, but they found none. 28 Then Yahweh said to Moses, “(E)How long do you refuse to keep My commandments and My [d]laws? 29 See, Yahweh has given you the sabbath; therefore He gives you bread for two days on the sixth day. Remain every man in his place; let no man go out of his place on the seventh day.”

8 “Remember (A)the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9 (B)Six days you shall labor and do all your work,
10 but the seventh day is a sabbath of Yahweh your God; in it (C)you shall not do any work, you or your son or your daughter, your male or your female slave or your cattle or your sojourner who is within your gates.

Legacy Standard Bible
12 ‘(A)Observe the sabbath day to keep it holy, as Yahweh your God commanded you.
13 Six days you shall labor and do all your work,
14 but (B)the seventh day is a sabbath of Yahweh your God; in it you shall not do any work, you or your son or your daughter or your male slave or your female slave or your ox or your donkey or any of your cattle or your sojourner who is within your gates, so that your male slave and your female slave may rest as well as you.
Isaiah 56:2-6
Legacy Standard Bible
2 How (A)blessed is the man who does this,
And the son of man who (B)takes hold of it,
Who (C)keeps from profaning the sabbath,
And keeps his hand from doing any evil.”
3 Let not the (D)foreigner who has joined himself to Yahweh say,
“Yahweh will surely separate me from His people.”
Nor let the (E)eunuch say, “Behold, I am a dry tree.”
4 For thus says Yahweh,
“To the eunuchs who (F)keep My sabbaths,
And choose what pleases Me,
And (G)hold fast My covenant,
5 To them I will give in My (H)house and within My (I)walls a [a]memorial,
And a name better than that of sons and daughters;
I will give [b]them an everlasting (J)name which (K)will not be cut off.
6 “Also the (L)foreigners who join themselves to Yahweh,
To minister to Him, and to love the name of Yahweh,
To be His [c]slaves, every one who (M)keeps from profaning the sabbath
And takes hold of My covenant,

Keeping the Sabbath
13 “If because of the sabbath, you (A)turn your foot
From doing your own desire on My holy day,
And call the sabbath a (B)delight, the holy day of Yahweh honorable,
And honor it, by not doing your (C)own ways,
By not finding your own desire
And (D)speaking your own word,
