Exodus 20:8-11

8 "Remember 1the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9 "2Six days you shall labor and do all your work,
10 but the seventh day is a sabbath of the LORD your God; in it 3you shall not do any work, you or your son or your daughter, your male or your female servant * or your cattle or your sojourner who stays with you.
11 "4For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day; therefore * the LORD blessed the sabbath day and made it holy.
