| 3. Formal Translation Six days work may be done, but on the seventh day is a Sabbath of complete rest, a holy convocation. You shall not do any work; it is a Sabbath to the LORD {Yahweh, Covenant Sanctifier} in all your dwellings. |
| 3. Dynamic Translation You have six days in which to do your work, but the seventh day is a complete rest—a special day for gathering as a sacred assembly. Do not do any work then; it is a Sabbath for the LORD {Yahweh, Rest Giver} wherever you live. |
