12 And my sabbaths I also gave to them,+ to become a sign between me and them,+ in order [for them] to know that I am Jehovah who is sanctifying them.*

17 Sanctify+ them by means of the truth; your word+ is truth.+

23 May the very God of peace+ sanctify YOU completely.+ And sound in every respect may the spirit and soul and body of YOU [brothers] be preserved in a blameless manner at the presence* of our Lord Jesus Christ.+
