    • Tanach, Jeremiah 17:22, with translation of the Jewish Publication Society:
      וְלֹא-תוֹצִיאוּ מַשָּׂא מִבָּתֵּיכֶם בְּיוֹם הַשַּׁבָּת וְכָל-מְלָאכָה לֹא תַעֲשׂוּ וְקִדַּשְׁתֶּם אֶת-יוֹם הַשַּׁבָּת כַּאֲשֶׁר צִוִּיתִי אֶת-אֲבוֹתֵיכֶם
      neither carry forth a burden out of your houses on the sabbath day, neither do ye any work; but hallow ye the sabbath day, as I commanded your fathers
