Etheridge(i)
2 But when the Pharishee saw them, they say to him, Look, thy disciples do something which is not lawful to be done on the sabbath.
3 But he said to them, Have you not read what David did when he hungered, and they who were with him?
4 how he went to the house of Aloha, and the bread of the table of the Lord did he eat, - that which was not lawful for him to eat, nor for them who were with him, but for the priests only?
5 Or have you not read in the law that the priests in the temple profane the sabbath in it, and are without blame?
6 But I say to you, that (one) greater than the temple is here.
7 Moreover, if you knew what that (meaneth), " I desire mercy and not a sacrifice," you would not have condemned them who are not faulty.
8 For the Lord of the sabbath is the Son of man.
