it happened that He was passing through {some} grainfields on a Sabbath;
and His disciples wereR276 picking the heads of grain, rubbing
them in their hands, and eating {the grain.} 6:2ut some of the Pharisees
said, "Why do you do what isR277 not lawful on the Sabbath?"
6:3 And Jesus answering them said, "HaveR278 you not even read
whatR279 David did when he was hungry, he and those who were
with him, 6:4 howR280 he entered the house of God, and took
and ate the consecratedF122 bread which isR281 not
lawful for any to eat except the priests alone, and gave it to his companions?"
6:5 And He was saying to them, "TheR282 Son of Man is Lord of

6:1 On a sabbath, while he was going through the grainfields, his disciples plucked and ate some heads of grain, rubbing them in their hands. 6:2 But some of the Pharisees said, "Why are you doing what is not lawful to do on the sabbath?" 6:3 And Jesus answered, "Have you not read what David did when he was hungry, he and those who were with him: 6:4 how he entered the house of God, and took and ate the bread of the Presence, which it is not lawful for any but the priests to eat, and also gave it to those with him?" 6:5 And he said to them, "The Son of man is lord of the sabbath." | 6:1 One Sabbath day as Jesus was walking through some grainfields, his disciples broke off heads of wheat, rubbed off the husks in their hands, and ate the grains. 6:2 But some Pharisees said, "You shouldn't be doing that! It's against the law to work by harvesting grain on the Sabbath." 6:3 Jesus replied, "Haven't you ever read in the Scriptures what King David did when he and his companions were hungry? 6:4 He went into the house of God, ate the special bread reserved for the priests alone, and then gave some to his friends. That was breaking the law, too." 6:5 And Jesus added, "I, the Son of Man, am master even of the Sabbath." | 6:1 Jesus

do on the Sabbath?" 6:3 Jesus answered them, "Haven't you read what David
did when he and his men were hungry? 6:4 He went into the house of God,
took the bread offered to God, ate it, and gave it also to his men. Yet
it is against our Law for anyone except the priests to eat that bread."R48
6:5 And Jesus concluded, "The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath."
