Exodus 23:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 But the seventh year thou shalt let it rest and lie still, that the poor of thy people may eat, and what they leave, the beasts of the field shall eat. In like manner thou shalt do with thy vineyard, and with thine olive trees.
12 (A)Six days thou shalt do thy work, and in the seventh day thou shalt rest, that thine ox, and thine ass may rest, and the son of thy maid, and the stranger may be refreshed.
13 And ye shall take heed to all things that I have said unto you: and ye shall make [a]no mention of the name of other gods, neither shall it be heard out of thy mouth.
