For the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and everything in them in six days; then he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and declared it holy.
It is a sign for ever between me and the Israelites, for in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, but on the seventh day he rested and was refreshed.’
but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. Do not do any work #– #you, your son or daughter, your male or female slave, your ox or donkey, any of your livestock, or the resident foreigner who lives within your city gates, so that your male and female slaves may rest as you do.
