21 This is what the Lord says: “(A)Take care for yourselves, and (B)do not carry any [a]load on the Sabbath day or bring anything in through the gates of Jerusalem. 22 You shall not bring a load out of your houses on the Sabbath day (C)nor do any work, but keep the Sabbath day holy, just as I (D)commanded your [b]forefathers. 23 Yet they (E)did not listen or incline their ears, but (F)stiffened their necks so as not to listen or accept discipline.
24 “But it will come about, if you (G)give your attention to Me,” declares the Lord, “to (H)bring no load in through the gates of this city on the Sabbath day, (I)but to keep the Sabbath day holy by doing no work on it, 25 (J)then there will come in through the gates of this city kings and officials (K)sitting on the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, they and their officials, the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and this (L)city will be inhabited forever. 26 They will come in from the (M)cities of Judah and from the areas surrounding Jerusalem, from the land of Benjamin, from the (N)lowland, from the hill country, and from the (O)Negev, bringing burnt offerings, sacrifices, grain offerings, and frankincense, and bringing sacrifices of thanksgiving to the house of the Lord. 27 But (P)if you do not listen to Me, to keep the Sabbath day holy by not carrying a load and coming in through the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day, then (Q)I will set fire to its gates, and it will (R)devour the palaces of Jerusalem and (S)not go out.”’”

21 This is what the Lord says: Be careful not to carry a load on the Sabbath(A) day or bring it through the gates of Jerusalem. 22 Do not bring a load out of your houses or do any work on the Sabbath, but keep the Sabbath day holy, as I commanded your ancestors.(B) 23 Yet they did not listen or pay attention;(C) they were stiff-necked(D) and would not listen or respond to discipline.(E) 24 But if you are careful to obey me, declares the Lord, and bring no load through the gates of this city on the Sabbath, but keep the Sabbath day holy(F) by not doing any work on it, 25 then kings who sit on David’s throne(G) will come through the gates of this city with their officials. They and their officials will come riding in chariots and on horses, accompanied by the men of Judah and those living in Jerusalem, and this city will be inhabited forever.(H) 26 People will come from the towns of Judah and the villages around Jerusalem, from the territory of Benjamin and the western foothills, from the hill country and the Negev,(I) bringing burnt offerings and sacrifices, grain offerings and incense, and bringing thank offerings to the house of the Lord. 27 But if you do not obey(J) me to keep the Sabbath(K) day holy by not carrying any load as you come through the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day, then I will kindle an unquenchable fire(L) in the gates of Jerusalem that will consume her fortresses.’”(M)
