Matthew 12:1-9

1AtG1722 thatG1565 timeG2540 JesusG2424 wentG4198 on the sabbathG4521 throughG1223 the grain fieldsG4702; andG1161 hisG846 disciplesG3101 were hungryG3983, andG2532 beganG756 to pluckG5089 the heads of grainG4719, andG2532 to eatG2068.

2ButG1161 when the PhariseesG5330 sawG1492 it, they saidG2036 to himG846, BeholdG2400, thyG4675 disciplesG3101 doG4160 that whichG3739 it isG1832 notG3756 lawfulG1832 to doG4160 onG1722 the sabbathG4521.

3ButG1161 he saidG2036 to themG846, Have yeG314 notG3756 readG314 whatG5101 DavidG1138 didG4160, whenG3753 heG846 was hungryG3983, andG2532 theyG3326 that were with himG846;

4HowG4459 he entered intoG1525G1519 the houseG3624 of GodG2316, andG2532 ateG5315 the showbreadG740G4286, whichG3739 it wasG2258 notG3756 lawfulG1832 for himG846 to eatG5315, neither forG3761 them whoG3326 were with himG846, butG1508 onlyG3441 for the priestsG2409?

5OrG2228 have yeG314 notG3756 readG314 inG1722 the lawG3551, thatG3754 on the sabbathG4521 the priestsG2409 inG1722 the templeG2411 profaneG953 the sabbathG4521, andG2532 areG1526 blamelessG338?

6ButG1161 I sayG3004 to youG5213, ThatG3754 in this placeG5602 isG2076 one greater thanG3187 the templeG2411.

7ButG1161 ifG1487 ye had knownG1097 whatG5101 this meanethG2076, I will haveG2309 mercyG1656, andG2532 notG3756 sacrificeG2378, ye wouldG302 notG3756 have condemnedG2613 the guiltlessG338.

8ForG1063 the SonG5207 of manG444 isG2076 LordG2962 evenG2532 of the sabbathG4521.

9AndG2532 when he had departedG3327 from thereG1564, he wentG2064 intoG1519 theirG846 synagogueG4864:
