Blessed is the man that taketh1 ⟨image 41⟩heed, that he unhalloweth not the Sabaoth (that is to say) keepeth him self so, that he do no evil. All they which keep them selves that they unhallow not the Sabaoth, I mean, that they fulfil my covenant: them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer.

If thou on the Sabaoth day turn thy feet,1 so that thou do not the thing which pleaseth thy self in my holy day, but givest God the honour, so that thou do not after thine own imagination, neither seek thine own will, nor speak thine own words: then shalt thou have thy pleasure in the Lord, and I will carry thee hie above y• earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the Lords own mouth hath so promised.
