1 Samuel 21:4-6

4And the priest answered David, and said, There is no common breadH3899 under my handH3027, but there is holy breadH3899; if only the young men have kept themselves from women. 5And DavidH1732 answered the priestH3548, and saidH559 unto him, Of a truth womenH802 have been keptH8104 from us about these three days; when I came out, the vessels of the youngH5288 menH5288 were holyH6944, though it was but a common journey; how much more then to-day shall their vessels be holyH6944? 6So the priestH3548 gave him holyH6944 bread; for there wasH1961 no bread there but the showbread, that wasH1961 taken from before Jehovah, to put hot bread in the dayH3117 when it wasH1961 taken away.
