At that time Jesus went through the corn on the sabbath: and his disciples being hungry, began to pluck the ears, and to eat.

How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the loaves of proposition, which it was not lawful for him to eat, nor for them that were with him, but for the priests only?

But he said to them: What man shall there be among you, that hath one sheep: and if the same fall into a pit on the sabbath day, will he not take hold on it and lift it up?
12 Cawhtaw thlanghqing ve tuu anglakawh izah nu a phu a awm khqoet! Cedawngawh Sabath nyn awh ik-oeih leek sai ve thym hy,” tina hy.
How much better is a man than a sheep? Therefore it is lawful to do a good deed on the sabbath days.

Behold my servant whom I have chosen, my beloved in whom my soul hath been well pleased. I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall shew judgment to the Gentiles.
