Mark 2:26-28
New Catholic Bible
26 He entered the house of God when Abiathar[a] was high priest and ate the sacred bread that only the priests were permitted to eat, and he shared it with his companions.” 27 Then he said to them, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.[b] 28 That is why the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”
