Lord of the Sabbath

6 ^(A)Now it happened that on a Sabbath He was passing through some grainfields, and His disciples ^(B)were picking and eating the heads of grain, rubbing them in their hands. ² But some of the Pharisees said, “Why do you do what ^(C)is not lawful on the Sabbath?” ³ And Jesus answered and said to them, “Have you never read ^(D)what David did when he was hungry, he and those who were with him, ⁴ how he entered the house of God, and took and ate the ^[a]consecrated bread which ^(E)is not lawful for any to eat except the priests alone, and gave it to his companions?” ⁵ And He was saying to them, “The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.”
