The verse 24 is found in chapter 17 of Jeremiah. Sabbath observance becomes a concrete test of covenant faithfulness.

So ihr mich hören werdet, spricht der HERR, daß ihr keine Last traget des Sabbattages durch dieser Stadt Tore ein, sondern ihn heiliget, daß ihr keine Arbeit an demselben Tage tut:
Será empero, si vosotros me obedeciereis, dice Jehová, no metiendo carga por las puertas de esta ciudad en el día del sábado, sino que santificaréis el día del sábado, no haciendo en él ninguna obra;
Si me escuchan de veras —declara Jehová— y no introducen cargas por las puertas de esta ciudad en el día de reposo, sino que santifican el día de reposo sin hacer en él ningún trabajo,
Si vous m'écoutez, dit l'Eternel, Si vous n'introduisez point de fardeau Par les portes de cette ville le jour du sabbat, Si vous sanctifiez le jour du sabbat, Et ne faites aucun ouvrage ce jour-là,
Ed avverrà, se pur mi ascoltate, dice il Signore, per non fare entrare alcun carico per le porte di questa città nel giorno del sabato, e per santificare il giorno del sabato, per non fare in esso alcun lavoro;
Mas se vós diligentemente me ouvirdes, diz o SENHOR, não introduzindo cargas pelas portas desta cidade no dia de sábado, e santificardes o dia de sábado, não fazendo nele obra alguma,
「你們若留意聽從我,在安息日不挑甚麼擔子進入這城的各門,只以安息日為聖日,在那日不做任何工作,這是耶和華說的,
