Mark 2:23-28

Common English Bible CEB

23 Jesus went through the wheat fields on the Sabbath. As the disciples made their way, they were picking the heads of wheat.

24 The Pharisees said to Jesus, "Look! Why are they breaking the Sabbath law?"

25 He said to them, "Haven't you ever read what David did when he was in need, when he and those with him were hungry?

26 During the time when Abiathar was high priest, David went into God's house and ate the bread of the presence, which only the priests were allowed to eat. He also gave bread to those who were with him."

27 Then he said, "The Sabbath was created for humans; humans weren't created for the Sabbath.

28 This is why the Human One is Lord even over the Sabbath."

New International Version NIV

23 One Sabbath Jesus was going through the grainfields, and as his disciples walked along, they began to pick some heads of grain.

24 The Pharisees said to him, “Look, why are they doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?”

25 He answered, “Have you never read what David did when he and his companions were hungry and in need?

26 In the days of Abiathar the high priest, he entered the house of God and ate the consecrated bread, which is lawful only for priests to eat. And he also gave some to his companions.”

27 Then he said to them, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.

28 So the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”
