12 And they shall rebuild ancient ruins from you;
    you shall erect the foundations of many generations,[a]
and you shall be called[b] the bricklayer of the breach,
    the restorer of paths to live in.
13 If you hold your foot back from the Sabbath,
    from doing your affairs on my holy day,[c]
if[d] you call the Sabbath a pleasure,
    the holy day of Yahweh honorable,
if[e] you honor him more than[f] doing your ways,
    than finding your affairs[g] and speaking a word,
14 then you shall take your pleasure in[h] Yahweh,
    and I will make you ride upon the heights of the earth,
    and I will feed you the heritage of Jacob your ancestor,[i]

for the mouth of Yahweh has spoken.”
