Luke 6:1-5

1Jesus was going through the grain fields on a Sabbath, and his disciples picked some heads of wheat, rubbed them in their hands, and ate them.

2But some of the Pharisees said, “Why are you doing what is against the law on the Sabbath?”

3Jesus answered them, “Haven’t you read what David did when he and his companions were hungry –

4how he entered the house of God, took and ate the sacred bread, which is not lawful for any to eat but the priests alone, and gave it to his companions?”

5Then he said to them, “The Son of Man is lord of the Sabbath.”
