Matthew 12:5-7
American Standard Version
5 Or have ye not read in the law, [a]that on the sabbath day the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are guiltless? 6 But I say unto you, that [b]one greater than the temple is here. 7 But if ye had known what this meaneth, [c]I desire mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.
