Nehemiah 13:16-19

16There dweltH3427 menH1121 of TyreH6876 also therein, which broughtH935 in fishH1709, and allH3605 manner of ware, and soldH4376 on the sabbathH7676 unto the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063, and in JerusalemH3389.

17Then I contendedH7378 with the noblesH2715 of JudahH3063, and saidH559 unto them, WhatH4100 evilH7451 thingH1697 is this that ye doH6213, and profaneH2490 the sabbathH7676 dayH3117?

18DidH6213 notH3808 your fathersH1 thusH3541, and didH6213 notH3808 our GodH430 bringH935 allH3605 this evilH7451 uponH5921 usH5921, and uponH5921 this cityH5892? yet ye bringH935 moreH3808 wrathH2740 uponH5921 IsraelH3478 by profaningH2490 the sabbathH7676.

19And it cameH935 to passH935 that, when the gatesH8179 of JerusalemH3389 beganH1961 to be darkH6751 beforeH6440 the sabbathH7676, I commandedH559 that the doorsH1817 should be shutH5462, and commandedH559 that they should notH3808 be openedH6605 tillH5704 afterH310 the sabbathH7676: and someH3117 of my servantsH5288 setH5975 I over the gatesH8179, that there should noH3808 burdenH4853 be broughtH935 in on the sabbathH7676 dayH3117.
