In controversy; in doubts about lawful and unlawful, in pretences of right and wrong in all contests. They shall stand in judgment; if the controversy be brought to them, they shall hear and consider. Shall judge it; shall determine, end the controversy, and reconcile parties. According to my judgments; not as they favour and affect, or disaffect and hate, but according to what God hath by his laws in that behalf directed. They shall keep; priests first, and people with them. Mine assemblies; public congregations for worshipping of God. Shall hallow my sabbaths; with holy care observe the sabbaths, as days of holy work, to be spent in secret, family, and public worship of God, as he requires.
