ASV_Strongs⁽ⁱ⁾

1 G1722 At G1565 that G2540 season G2424 Jesus G4198 went on G4521 the sabbath day G1223 through G4702 the grainfields; G1161 and G846 his G3101 disciples G3983 were hungry G2532 and G756 began G5089 to pluck G4719 ears G2532 and G2068 to eat.

2 G5330 But the Pharisees, G1161 when G1492 they saw G2036 it, said G846 unto him, G2400 Behold, G4675 thy G3101 disciples G4160 do G3739 that which G1832 it is G3756 not G1832 lawful G4160 to do G1722 upon G4521 the sabbath.

3 G1161 But G3588 he G2036 said G846 unto them, G314 Have ye G3756 not G314 read G5101 what G1138 David G4160 did, G3753 when G846 he G3983 was hungry, G2532 and G3588 they that were G3326 with G846 him;

4 G4459 how G1525 he entered G1519 into G3624 the house G2316 of God, G2532 and G5315 ate G740 the G740 showbread, G3739 which G2258 it was G3756 not G1832 lawful G846 for him G5315 to eat, G3761 neither G3588 for them that were G3326 with G846 him, G1487 but G3441 only G3361 for G2409 the priests?

5 G2228 Or G314 have ye G3756 not G314 read G1722 in G3551 the law, G3754 that G4521 on the sabbath day G2409 the priests G1722 in G2411 the temple G953 profane G4521 the sabbath, G2532 and G1526 are G338 guiltless?

6 G1161 But G3004 I say G5213 unto you, G3754 that G3187 one greater than G2411 the temple G2076 is G5602 here.

7 G1161 But G1487 if G1097 ye had known G5101 what G2076 this meaneth, G2309 I desire G1656 mercy, G2532 and G3756 not G2378 sacrifice, G2613 ye G302 would G3756 not G2613 have condemned G338 the guiltless.

8 G1063 For G5207 the Son G444 of man G2076 is G2962 lord G2532 of G4521 the sabbath.

9 G2532 And G3327 he departed G1564 thence, G2064 and went G1519 into G846 their G4864 synagogue:

10 G2532 and G2400 behold, G2258 a G444 man G2192 having a G3584 withered G5495 hand. G2532 And G1905 they asked G846 him, G1487 saying, G1832 Is it lawful G2323 to heal G4521 on the sabbath day? G2443 that G2723 they might accuse G846 him.

11 G1161 And G3588 he G2036 said G846 unto them, G5101 What G444 man G2071 shall there be G1537 of G5216 you, G3739 that G2192 shall have G1520 one G4263 sheep, G2532 and G1437 if G5124 this G1706 fall G1519 into G999 a pit G4521 on the sabbath day, G2902 will he G3780 not G2902 lay hold on G846 it, G2532 and G1453 lift G1453 it out?

12 G4214 How much G3767 then G1308 is G444 a man G1308 of more value G4263 than a sheep! G5620 Wherefore G1832 it is lawful G4160 to do G2573 good G4521 on the sabbath day.

13 G5119 Then G3004 saith he G444 to the man, G1614 Stretch forth G4675 thy G5495 hand. G2532 And G1614 he stretched G1614 it forth; G2532 and G600 it was restored G5199 whole, G5613 as G243 the other.

14 G1161 But G5330 the Pharisees G1831 went out, G2983 and took G4824 counsel G2596 against G846 him, G3704 how G622 they might destroy G846 him.
