Deuteronomy 5:12-14
1599 Geneva Bible
12 Keep the Sabbath day to sanctify it, as the Lord thy God hath commanded thee.
13 Six days [a]thou shalt labor, and shalt do all thy work:
14 But the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God: thou shalt not do any work therein, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy maid, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, neither any of thy cattle, nor the stranger that is within thy gates: that thy manservant and thy maid may rest as well as thou.
