καὶ ηὐλόγησεν [ὁ θεὸς τὴν] ἡμέραν τὴν ἑβδόμην καὶ ἡγίασεν αὐτήν, ὅτι ἐν αὐτῇ κατέπαυσεν ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν ἔργων αὐτοῦ ὧν ἤρξατο ὁ θεὸς ποιῆσαι.
God's rest becomes a blessing and a consecration: ηὐλόγησεν ("blessed") and ἡγίασεν ("hallowed", from ἅγιος, "holy" — sets apart as distinct/sacred) mark the seventh day as categorically different from the six days of making. The last bracketed restoration in the chapter closes here, at τὴν; from this point Codex A is undamaged.
