2 But some oʼ the Pharisees said, “Why dae ye an unlawfuʼ thing on the Sabbath‐day?”
But whan the Pharisees sawʼt, quoʼ they till him, “See! yer disciples are doin whatʼs no allooʼd on the Sabbath!”
“Hoo isʼt yere disciples mind‐na the biddins oʼ the faithers oʼ auld? For they eat breid wiʼ unweshin hauns.”
And the Pharisees say to him, “See! hoo isʼt they do on the Sabbath what is no allooʼt?”
And they say to him, “Hoo isʼt that Johnʼs disciples fast mickle, and mak prayers; and thae oʼ the Pharisees as weel; but yere ain are eatin and drinkin?”
Sae the Jews persecutit Jesus, and wad fain hae killʼt him, for doin thir things on the Sabbath‐day.
