KJV ORIGINAL
Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless?
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
Haven't you read the law? It literally says that priests work in the temple on the Sabbath — technically 'breaking' it — but they're completely innocent because they're doing God's work.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
Sometimes doing what God wants matters more than following the rules perfectly.
