mankind

"man" or "people" or "the needs of people." This word refers to both men and women. (See: rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-gendernotations)

not mankind for the Sabbath

The words "was made" are understood from the previous phrase. They can be repeated here. Alternate translation: "mankind was not made for the Sabbath" or "God did not make mankind for the Sabbath" (See: rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-ellipsis)
