12 At that time Jesus went on the sabbath day through the corn; and his disciples were an hungred, and began to pluck the ears of corn and to eat.

But when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto him, Behold, thy disciples do that which is not lawful to do upon the sabbath day.

But he said unto them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was an hungred, and they that were with him;

How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the shewbread, which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him, but only for the priests?

Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless?

But I say unto you, That in this place is one greater than the temple.

But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.

For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day.

Los discípulos recogen espigas en el día de reposo

(Mr. 2.23-28; Lc. 6.1-5)

12 En aquel tiempo iba Jesús por los sembrados en un día de reposo;[a] y sus discípulos tuvieron hambre, y comenzaron a arrancar espigas(A) y a comer. Viéndolo los fariseos, le dijeron: He aquí tus discípulos hacen lo que no es lícito hacer en el día de reposo.[b] Pero él les dijo: ¿No habéis leído lo que hizo David, cuando él y los que con él estaban tuvieron hambre; cómo entró en la casa de Dios, y comió los panes de la proposición,(B) que no les era lícito comer ni a él ni a los que con él estaban, sino solamente a los sacerdotes?(C) ¿O no habéis leído en la ley, cómo en el día de reposo[c] los sacerdotes en el templo profanan el día de reposo,[d] y son sin culpa?(D) Pues os digo que uno mayor que el templo está aquí. Y si supieseis qué significa:(E) Misericordia quiero, y no sacrificio,(F) no condenaríais a los inocentes; porque el Hijo del Hombre es Señor del día de reposo.[e]
