7 The ahal (tent) of Meeting, the arawan (ark) of the idawath (testimony), the kaparath (mercy) seat that is on it, all the kalay (furniture) of the ahal (tent),

8 The shalachan (table) and its kalay (vessels), the tahawar (pure) lampstand with all its kalay (vessels), the mazabach (altar) of qatarath (incense),

11 The mashachah (anointing) shaman (oil), and the qatarath (incense) of sam (sweet) spices for the qadash (set apart / make holy) place: according to all that I have tzawah (commanded) you they shall ishah (make).”

12 Yahawah () amar (spoke) to Mashah (Moses), amar (spoke),

13 “Dabar (word / matter) also to the banay (children) of Yashar-Al (Israel), amar (spoke), ‘Most ak (certainly) you shall shamar (keep/guard) my shabath (shabath / rest): for it is a awath (sign / mark / miracle) between me and you throughout your dawar (generation / age / period); that you may yadai (know) that I am Yahawah () who qadash (set apart / make holy) you.

14 You shall shamar (keep/guard) the shabath (shabath / rest) therefore; for it is qadash (set apart / make holy) to you. Everyone who chalal (profanes) it shall mawath (death) be put to mawath (death); for whoever ishah (make) any malaakah (work) therein, that napash (soul) shall be karath (cut) off from qarab (among / near) his im (nation / people).

15 Shash (six) yamayam (days) shall malaakah (work) be ishah (make), but on the shabayaiy (seventh) day is a shabath (shabath / rest) of solemn shabathawan (rest), qadash (set apart / make holy) to Yahawah (). Whoever ishah (make) any malaakah (work) on the shabath (shabath / rest) yawam (day) shall mawath (death) be put to mawath (death).

16 Therefore the banay (my son) of Yashar-Al (Israel) shall shamar (keep/guard) the shabath (shabath / rest), to ishah (make) the shabath (shabath / rest) throughout their dawar (generation / age / period), for a iwalam (eternity) barayath (covenant).

17 It is a awath (sign / mark / miracle) between me and the banay (children) of Yashar-Al (Israel) iwalam (forever); for in shash (six) yamayam (days) Yahawah () ishah (make) shamayam (Shamayam / Heavens) and aratz (Earth/land), and on the shabayaiy (seventh) yawam (day) he shabath (shabath / rest), and was napash (soul).’”
