Contemporary English Version

Laws for the Sabbath

35 Moses called together the people of Israel and told them that the Lord had said:

^2 (A) You have six days in which to do your work. But the seventh day must be dedicated to me, your Lord, as a day of rest. Whoever works on the Sabbath will be put to death. ³ Don't even build a cooking fire at home on the Sabbath.
