15. Formal Translation In those days I saw people in Judah treading grapes in winepresses on the Sabbath. They brought in heaps, loaded them onto donkeys, and carried wine, grapes, figs, and every kind of burden into Jerusalem on the Sabbath day, and I warned them on the day of their selling food. |
15. Dynamic Translation During that time I observed people in Judah working the winepresses on the Sabbath, bringing in piles and loading donkeys, and carrying wine, grapes, figs, and all kinds of loads into Jerusalem on that day. So I warned them not to sell food on that day. |
