Exodus 31:12-14
1599 Geneva Bible
12 ¶ Afterward the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
13 Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, and say, [a]Notwithstanding keep ye my Sabbaths: for it is a sign between me and you in your generations, that ye may know that I the Lord do sanctify you.
14 (A)Ye shall therefore keep the [b]Sabbath: for it is holy unto you: he that defileth it, shall die the death: therefore whosoever worketh therein, the same person shall be even cut off from among his people.
