* It happened that on a Sabbath he was going through the wheat-fields . His disciples were picking the ears and eating the wheat , rubbing it out with their hands . * And some of the Pharisees asked , "Why are you doing what it is not lawful to do on the Sabbath ?" * "Have you never read ," answered Jesus , "what David did when he and his followers were hungry ? * "How he entered into Gods house and took and ate the Presented Loaves , and gave some to his followers , loaves which none must eat but the priests ? * "THE SON OF MAN ," he told them , "IS LORD EVEN OVER THE SABBATH ." * On another Sabbath he went into a synagogue and was teaching ; and there was there a man whose right hand was withered . * Now the Scribes and Pharisees kept watching to see if he would heal on the Sabbath , so that they might be able to bring on accusations to him . * He was all along aware of their thoughts ; and he said to the man with the withered hand , "Rise , and stand there in the midst ." * So he rose and stood . Then Jesus said to them . "I ask you whether it is lawful on the Sabbath Day to do good or to do harm ? To save a life or to destroy it ?" * Then he looked round about on them in anger , and said to him , "Stretch out your hand !" * He did so ; and his hand was restored . But they were filled with fury , and they began to talk over together what they could do to Jesus .
