1 Corinthians 4:6-15
(6) Now these things, brothers, I have in a figure transferred to myself and Apollos for your sakes, that in us you might learn not to think beyond the things which are written, that none of you be puffed up against one another. (7) For who makes you different? And what do you have that you didn’t receive? But if you did receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it? (8) You are already filled. You have already become rich. You have come to reign without us. Yes, and I wish that you did reign, that we also might reign with you. (9) For, I think that God has displayed us, the apostles, last of all, like men sentenced to death. For we are made a spectacle to the world, both to angels and men. (10) We are fools for Christ’s sake, but you are wise in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You have honor, but we have dishonor. (11) Even to this present hour we hunger, thirst, are naked, are beaten, and have no certain dwelling place. (12) We toil, working with our own hands. When people curse us, we bless. Being persecuted, we endure. (13) Being defamed, we entreat. We are made as the filth of the world, the dirt wiped off by all, even until now. (14) I don’t write these things to shame you, but to admonish you as my beloved children. (15) For though you have ten thousand tutors in Christ, you don’t have many fathers. For in Christ Jesus, I became your father through the Good News.
Psalms 145:17-21
(17) Yahweh is righteous in all his ways, and gracious in all his works. (18) Yahweh is near to all those who call on him, to all who call on him in truth. (19) He will fulfill the desire of those who fear him. He also will hear their cry, and will save them. (20) Yahweh preserves all those who love him, but all the wicked he will destroy. (21) My mouth will speak the praise of Yahweh. Let all flesh bless his holy name forever and ever.
Luke 6:1-5
(1) Now on the second Sabbath after the first, he was going through the grain fields. His disciples plucked the heads of grain and ate, rubbing them in their hands. (2) But some of the Pharisees said to them, “Why do you do that which is not lawful to do on the Sabbath day?” (3) Jesus, answering them, said, “Haven’t you read what David did when he was hungry, he, and those who were with him; (4) how he entered into God’s house, and took and ate the show bread, and gave also to those who were with him, which is not lawful to eat except for the priests alone?” (5) He said to them, “The Son of Man is lord of the Sabbath.”
