23 One Sabbath day as Jesus was walking through the grain fields, his disciples started picking heads of grain as they walked along.24 The Pharisees asked Jesus, “Look, why are they doing what is not permitted on the Sabbath?”

25 “Haven't you ever read what David did when he and his men were hungry and in need?” Jesus asked them.26 “He went into God's house when Abiathar was high priest, and ate the consecrated bread which no one except the priests are permitted to eat, and gave it to his men too.”

27 “The Sabbath was made for your benefit, not for you to benefit the Sabbath,” he told them.28 “So the Son of man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”
