ગુજરાતીમાથ્થી ૧૨:૪
તેણે ઈશ્વરના ઘરમાં પેસીને અર્પણ કરેલી રોટલી, જે તેને તથા તેના સાથીઓને ખાવી ઉચિત ન હતી, પણ એકલા યાજકોને ઉચિત હતી, તે તેણે ખાધી.
हिन्दीमत्ती १२:४
वह कैसे परमेश्वर के घर में गया, और भेंट की रोटियाँ खाई, जिन्हें खाना न तो उसे और न उसके साथियों को, पर केवल याजकों को उचित था?

In context

3But he said to them, “Haven’t you read what David did when he was hungry, and those who were with him:

4how he entered into God’s house and ate the show bread, which was not lawful for him to eat, nor for those who were with him, but only for the priests?

5Or have you not read in the law that on the Sabbath day the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath and are guiltless?

6But I tell you that one greater than the temple is here.
