Deuteronomy 5:12-15

WEB · Bible Passage

Bible Text

[12] "Observe the Sabbath day, to keep it holy, as Yahweh your God commanded you. [13] Six days shall you labor, and do all your work; [14] but the seventh day is a Sabbath to Yahweh your God: [in it] you shall not do any work, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your man-servant, nor your maid-servant, nor your ox, nor your donkey, nor any of your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates; that your man-servant and your maid-servant may rest as well as you. [15] You shall remember that you were a servant in the land of Egypt, and Yahweh your God brought you out of there by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm: therefore Yahweh your God commanded you to keep the Sabbath day.
