1 One Sabbath [On the second Sabbath after the first] Jesus was passing through the grainfields, and His disciples (pupils) began to pick the heads of grain, rub them in their hands, and eat them.

2 But some of the Pharisees asked, “Why are you⁺ doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?

3 Jesus (YHWH saves) replied, “Have you⁺ not read what David (beloved) did when he and his companions were hungry?

4 He entered the house of God {Theou}, took the consecrated bread (the Bread of the Presence) and gave it to his companions, and ate what is lawful only for the priests to eat.

5 Then Jesus declared, “The Son of Man is Lord {Kyrios} of the Sabbath.

6 On another Sabbath Jesus entered the synagogue and was teaching {didaskein}, and a man was there whose right hand was withered.

7 Looking for a reason to accuse Jesus, the scribes and Pharisees were watching Him closely to see if He would heal on the Sabbath.

8 But Jesus knew their thoughts and said to the man with the withered hand, “Get up and stand among us. So he got up and stood there.

9 Then Jesus (YHWH saves) said to them, “I ask you⁺, which is lawful on the Sabbath: to do good or to do evil, to save life {psychēn} or to destroy it?

10 And after looking around at all of them, He said to the man, “Stretch out your hand. He did so, and it was restored.
