Everyone who profanes it shall surely be put to death; for whoever does any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people. ###### v15 Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day is a Sabbath of solemn rest, holy to Yahweh. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day shall surely be put to death. ###### v16 Therefore the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant. ###### v17 It is a sign between me and the children of Israel forever; for in six days Yahweh made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.'" ###### v18 When he finished speaking with him on Mount Sinai, he gave Moses the two tablets of the covenant, stone tablets, written with God's finger. *** [[Exod-30|← Exodus 30]] | [[Exodus]] | [[Exod-32|Exodus 32 →]]
