Exegesis

A second negative clause uses vekhol {וְכָל־ | wə-ḵāl} ‘and any’ with melakhah {מְלָאכָה | mə-lāʾḵāh} ‘work’ and lo {לֹא | lōʾ} ‘not’ before the Qal imperfect taasu {תַעֲשׂ֑וּ | ta‘ăśû} ‘you shall do’, reinforcing the ban.

In contextJeremiah 17:22

And you shall not bring out any burden from your houses on the Sabbath day, and you shall not do any work, but you shall sanctify the Sabbath day as I commanded your fathers.
