1 Samuel 21:3-5
Lexham English Bible
3 Now then, what do you have at hand?[a] Give me five loaves of bread or whatever is here.”[b] 4 The priest answered David and said, “There is no ordinary bread here at hand;[c] there is only holy bread, but only if the young men have kept themselves from women.” 5 David answered the priest and said to him, “Indeed, women were held back from us as it has been when I’ve gone out before.[d] And the things[e] of the young men are holy when[f] it is an ordinary journey. How much more[g] today[h] will the things[i] be holy?”
