Mark 2:23-28

23 And it came to pass that as he went through the planted fields again on the sabbath day, his disciples began, as they walked, to pluck the ears of grain.
24 And the Pharisees said unto him, Behold, why do they on the sabbath day that which is not lawful?
25 And he said unto them, Have ye never read what David did when he had need and was hungry, he and those that were with him?
26 How he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest and ate the showbread, which is not lawful to eat but for the priests, and gave also to those who were with him?
27 And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath;
28 therefore the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath.
