Discovery BoxDeuteronomy 5:14 
Context5:14 but the seventh day is the Sabbath 1 of the Lord your God. On that day you must not do any work, you, your son, your daughter, your male slave, your female slave, your ox, your donkey, any other animal, or the foreigner who lives with you, 2 so that your male and female slaves, like yourself, may have rest.
Deuteronomy 18:16
Context18:16 This accords with what happened at Horeb in the day of the assembly. You asked the Lord your God: “Please do not make us hear the voice of the Lord our 3 God any more or see this great fire any more lest we die.”
1 tn There is some degree of paronomasia (wordplay) here: “the seventh (הַשְּׁבִיעִי, hashÿvi’i) day is the Sabbath (שַׁבָּת, shabbat).” Otherwise, the words have nothing in common, since “Sabbath” is derived from the verb שָׁבַת (shavat, “to cease”).
2 tn Heb “in your gates”; NRSV, CEV “in your towns”; TEV “in your country.”
3 tn The Hebrew text uses the collective singular in this verse: “my God…lest I die.”
