13 If you hold your foot back from the Sabbath,
    from doing your affairs on my holy day,[a]
if[b] you call the Sabbath a pleasure,
    the holy day of Yahweh honorable,
if[c] you honor him more than[d] doing your ways,
    than finding your affairs[e] and speaking a word,
14 then you shall take your pleasure in[f] Yahweh,
    and I will make you ride upon the heights of the earth,
    and I will feed you the heritage of Jacob your ancestor,[g]

for the mouth of Yahweh has spoken.”
