Luke 6:6-11

A Man with a Withered Hand

6 On another Sabbath, ¹he entered the synagogue ²and was teaching, and a man was there whose right hand was withered.

7 And the scribes and the Pharisees ³watched him, to see whether he would heal on the Sabbath, ⁴so that they might find a reason to accuse him.

8 But ⁵he knew their thoughts, and he said to the man with the withered hand, "Come and stand here." And he rose and stood there.

9 And Jesus said to them, "I ask you, ⁶is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do harm, to save life or to destroy it?"

10 And ⁷after looking around at them all he said to him, "Stretch out your hand." And ⁸he did so, and his hand was restored.

11 But they were filled with ⁹fury and discussed with one another what they might do to Jesus.
