to believe in the one whom he has sent.” - For six days work can be done, but the seventh is a Sabbath of rest, a holy assembly. You will do no work on it; it is a Sabbath of the Lord in all of your dwellings.
- I am confident of this: that the one who began a good work in you will bring it to completion on the day of Christ Jesus.
- God blessed the seventh day and he consecrated it, for on it he rested from all the work he had done when he created all things.
- We know that God makes all things work together for good for those who love him and who are called according to his purpose.
- On one occasion, while they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set Barnabas and Saul apart for me to do the work to which I have called them.”

do not forsake the work of your hands. - For the word of the Lord is true,
and he is faithful in everything he does. - Then I came to realize that all toil and skill in work derive from one person’s envy of another. This also is vanity and a chase after the wind.

so you do not know the work of God,
the Creator of all. - You shall observe the Sabbath by keeping it holy, as the Lord, your God, has commanded you. You are to labor on six days, doing all of your work then. The seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord, your God.

Thus your manservant and maidservant can rest as well.

or to the pot that is displeased with the potter.

“What are you doing?
Your work makes no sense.” - All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for refutation, for correction, and for training in uprightness, so that the man of God may be proficient and equipped for good work of every kind.
- Remember the Sabbath and keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath in honor of the Lord your God. You shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male slave, nor your female slave, nor your animals, nor the foreigner who dwells with you. The Lord made the heavens and the earth and the seas and that which is in them in six days, but he rested the seventh day. Thus, the Lord blessed the Sabbath and declared it to be sacred.
- Do not work for food that perishes
but for the food that endures for eternal life,
which the Son of Man will give you.

that God the Father has set his seal. - Does God give you the Spirit and work mighty deeds among you because you have kept the Law or because you believed what you have heard?

but idle conversation only leads to poverty. - And God is able to enrich you with an abundance of every grace, so that, with all of your needs provided for, you may be able to produce a surplus of good works.

- He is a rock, his deeds are perfect,
and all of his ways are just.
He is a God of truth who does no wrong;
he is just and upright. - To him who in all things is able
through the power
that is at work within us
to accomplish abundantly far more
than all we can ask or imagine,
to him be glory in the Church
and in Christ Jesus
through all generations,
forever and ever. Amen.
