Nehemiah 13:16-18

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁶ Men of Tyre also dwelt there, who brought fish and all wares and sold to the children of Judah in Jerusalem on the Sabbath.

¹⁷ Then I reproved the rulers of Judah, and said to them, “What evil thing is this that you do, and break the Sabbath Day?

¹⁸ “Did not your fathers do the same, and our God brought all this plague upon us and upon this city? Yet you increase the wrath upon Israel in breaking the Sabbath!”
