'Stopping' in the Bible

The steward searched, beginning with the eldest and ending with the youngest, and the cup was found in Benjamin’s sack.

‘Why have we fasted,’ they say, ‘and You do not see it?Why have we humbled ourselves and You do not notice?’Hear this [O Israel], on the day of your fast [when you should be grieving for your sins] you find something you desire [to do],And you force your hired servants to work [instead of stopping all work, as the law teaches].
