Matthew 12:3-5

New American Standard Bible 1995

³ But He said to them, “Have you not read what David did when he became hungry, he and his companions, ⁴ how he entered the house of God, and ^(A)they ate the ^[a]consecrated bread, which was not lawful for him to eat nor for those with him, but for the priests alone? ⁵ Or have you not read in the Law, that on the Sabbath the priests in the temple ^[b]break the Sabbath and are innocent?
