AT that time Jesus walked through corn-fields on a sabbath-day; and his disciples were hungry, and began to pluck the ears of corn, and to eat.

AND it came to pass on the sabbath after the second day of the passover, that he was passing through the cornfields; and the disciples plucked the ears of corn, and did eat, rubbing them out in their hands.

for in the law of Moses it is written, "Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox which treadeth out the corn." Doth God take care for oxen?

And he was walking through the cornfields on the sabbath; and his disciples as they went on the road plucked the ears of corn.

and sleep and rise, night and day, and the sown corn should sprout, and grow into length, he knoweth not how:

for the earth, naturally prolific, beareth fruit; first the blade, then the ear, then the full corn in the ear.

For the Scripture saith, "Thou shalt not muzzle the ox while he treadeth out the corn." And again, "The labourer is worthy of his hire."
