Dey Give Jesus Heat Bout Da Rest Day

12 Had one time, was da Jewish Rest Day, an Jesus an his guys wen walk thru da fields wea dey grow da wheat. His guys was real hungry. Dey wen pick litto bit wheat fo eat. ² But had Pharisee guys ova dea dat wen see um do dat, an dey tell Jesus, “Eh, how come! Dese guys, you teaching dem, but still yet dey stay doing da kine stuff dey not suppose to do on da Rest Day!”

³ Jesus tell um, “Wot! You guys neva read inside da Bible wat David wen do, da time wen him an his guys was hungry? ⁴ He go inside Godʼs spesho house, an eat da bread dass spesho fo God. But no can do dat kine, cuz Godʼs Rules say dat ony da priest guys can eat um. But David, he eat um, an he give um to his guys too cuz dey hungry, an dass okay. ⁵ Wot! You guys neva read inside da Bible how da priest guys inside da temple gotta do tings on da Rest Day dat go agains da Godʼs Rules? But wen dey do um, dey no broke Godʼs Rules. ⁶ I tell you strait, get one guy ova hea mo importan den dat temple. Dass me! ⁷ Da Bible say, ‘I like my peopo make good to each odda an give each odda chance. Dat mo betta den jus make sacrifice inside da temple.’ If you guys wen know wat dis mean, den you guys no say dey wen broke Godʼs Rules, cuz dey neva. ⁸ I da Guy Dass Fo Real. I da one, da boss fo da Rest Day.”

²² Dey bring one guy dat get one bad kine spirit dat take ova him. Da guy no can see o talk, cuz da spirit no let um. An Jesus make da spirit let go da guy, an make da guy come good, so he can talk an see. ²³ Da peopo, blow dea minds, an dey say, “Eh, dis da guy from King David ohana dat da Bible wen talk bout befo time, o wat?”

²⁴ Da Pharisee guys hear dat, an dey say, “Nah! Was Beelzebul, da Devil. He da leada guy fo da bad kine spirits, you know, an he da one wen give dis guy da power fo make da spirit let go da guy, az why!”

²⁵ Jesus wen know wat dey tinking. He tell um, “Da country dat beef each odda, dey ony bus up dea own self. Da town o da ohana dat beef each odda, no can stay strong. ²⁶ If da Devil make his own guys let go da peopo, den he going agains himself. How he goin stay one strong king? ²⁷ If dea boss Beelzebul give me power fo make da bad kine spirits let go da peopo, who give yoa guys dat kine power? Den wat? Yoa own guys goin show dat you guys stay wrong! ²⁸ But if I make da bad kine spirits let go da peopo cuz I get power from Godʼs Spirit, dat show dat God stay King, an he taking ova, ova hea now.

But whoeva talk agains Godʼs Good an Spesho Spirit, God no goin let um go an hemo dea shame fo dat, now o foeva.
