Exodus 31:16-18

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁶ Let the children of Israel keep the sabbath, and celebrate it in their generations. It is an everlasting covenant

¹⁷ Between me and the children of Israel, and a perpetual sign. For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and in the seventh he ceased from work.

¹⁸ And the Lord, when he had ended these words in mount Sinai, gave to Moses two stone tables of testimony, written with the finger of God.
