^9 (A)Departing from there, He went into their synagogue. ¹⁰ And a man was there whose hand was withered. And they questioned ^[a]Jesus, asking, “^(B)Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”—so that they might bring charges against Him. ¹¹ But He said to them, “^(C)What man ^[b]is there among you who ^[c]has a sheep, and if it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will he not take hold of it and lift it out? ^12 (D)How much more valuable then is a person than a sheep! So then, it is lawful to do ^[d]good on the Sabbath.” ¹³ Then He *said to the man, “Stretch out your hand!” ^(E)He stretched it out, and it was restored to ^[e]normal, like the other. ¹⁴ But the Pharisees went out and ^[f](F)conspired against Him, as to how they might destroy Him.

Jesus Heals on the Sabbath

3 ^(A)He ^(B)entered a synagogue again; and a man was there whose hand was withered. ² And ^(C)they were watching Him ^[a]closely to see if He would heal him on the Sabbath, ^(D)so that they might accuse Him. ³ He *said to the man with the withered hand, “^[b]Get up and come forward!” ⁴ And He *said to them, “Is it lawful to do good on the Sabbath or to do harm, to save a life or to kill?” But they kept silent. ⁵ After ^(E)looking around at them with anger, grieved at their hardness of heart, He *said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” And he stretched it out, and his hand was restored. ⁶ The Pharisees went out and immediately began ^[c]conspiring with the ^(F)Herodians against Him, as to how they might put Him to death.

^6 (A)On another Sabbath He entered ^(B)the synagogue and taught; and a man was there ^[a]whose right hand was withered. ⁷ Now the scribes and the Pharisees ^(C)were watching Him ^[b]closely to see if He healed on the Sabbath, so that they might find a reason to accuse Him. ⁸ But He ^(D)knew ^[c]what they were thinking, and He said to the man with the withered hand, “Get up and ^[d]come forward!” And he got up and ^[e]came forward. ⁹ And Jesus said to them, “I ask you whether it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath or to do harm, to save a life or to destroy it?” ¹⁰ And after ^(E)looking around at them all, He said to him, “Stretch out your hand!” And he did so; and his hand was restored. ¹¹ But they themselves were filled with senseless rage, and began discussing together what they might do to Jesus.
