Luke 6:1-4

1 One sabbath while Jesus was going through the grainfields, his disciples plucked some heads of grain, rubbed them in their hands, and ate them.

2 But some of the Pharisees said, "Why are you doing what is not lawful on the sabbath?"

3 Jesus answered, "Have you not read what David did when he and his companions were hungry?

4 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 gave some to his companions?"
