Da das die Pharisäer sahen, sprachen sie zu ihm: Siehe, deine Jünger tun, was sich nicht ziemt am Sabbat zu tun.
Y viéndolo los Fariseos, le dijeron: He aquí tus discípulos hacen lo que no es lícito hacer es sábado.
Al verlo, los fariseos le dijeron: «Mira, tus discípulos hacen lo que no está permitido hacer en día de reposo».
Les pharisiens, voyant cela, lui dirent: Voici, tes disciples font ce qu'il n'est pas permis de faire pendant le sabbat.
E i Farisei, veduto ciò, gli dissero: Ecco, i tuoi discepoli fan quello che non è lecito di fare in giorno di sabato.
E os fariseus, vendo isto, disseram-lhe: Eis que os teus discípulos fazem o que não é lícito fazer num sábado.
法利賽人看見,對耶穌說:「看哪,你的門徒在安息日做不合法的事了。」
