4And the priest answered David, "I have no common bread at hand, but there is holy bread; if only the young men have kept themselves from women." 5And David answered the priest, "Of a truth women have been kept from us as always when I go on an expedition; the vessels of the young men are holy, even when it is a common journey; how much more today will their vessels be holy?"
