You saw the oppression of our ancestors in Egypt
and heard their cry at the Red Sea.

At that time I saw people in Judah treading wine presses on the Sabbath. They were also bringing in stores of grain and loading them on donkeys, along with wine, grapes, and figs. All kinds of goods were being brought to Jerusalem on the Sabbath day. So I warned them against selling food on that day.

In those days I also saw Jews who had married women from Ashdod, Ammon, and Moab.
