Worship and praise on the Seventh–Day Sabbath

(Exodus 20.8-11)

8  Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.  (Ex. 16.23-30; 31.12-14)

9  Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work:

10  but the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God:  in it thou shalt not do any work, (Ex. 23.12; 31.15; 34.21; 35.2; Lev. 23.3) thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:

11  for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and ALL that in them is, and rested the seventh day:  wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.  (Gen. 2.1-3; Ex. 31.17)
