3 Jesus answering them, said, Have ye not read so much as this, what David did, when he himself was an hungered, and they who were with him;
4 How he went into the house of God, and did take and eat the shewbread, and gave also to them who were with him, which it is not lawful to eat, but for the priests alone?
5 And he said unto them, That the Son of Man is Lord also of the Sabbath.
6 And it came to pass also on another Sabbath, that he entered into the synagogue, and taught. And there was a man whose right hand was withered;
7 And the scribes and Pharisees watched him, whether he would heal on the Sabbath day; that they might find an accusation against him.
8 But he knew their thoughts, and said to the man who had the withered hand, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose and stood forth.
9 Then said Jesus unto them, I will ask you one thing; Is it lawful on the Sabbath days to do good, or to do evil? To save life, or to destroy?
10 And looking round about upon them all, he said unto the man, Stretch forth thy hand. And he did so; and his hand was restored whole as the other.
11 And they were filled with madness; and communed one with another what they might do to Jesus.
12 And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.
13 And when it was day, he called his disciples; and of them he chose twelve, whom also he named apostles.
