Matthew 12:11-21

11 "Which of you is there," He replied, "who, if he has but a single sheep and it falls into a hole on the Sabbath, will not lay hold of it and lift it out?
12 Is not a man, however, far superior to a sheep? Therefore it is right to do good on the Sabbath."
13 Then He said to the man, "Stretch out your arm." And he stretched it out, and it was restored quite sound like the other.
14 But the Pharisees after leaving the synagogue consulted together against Him, how they might destroy Him.
15 Aware of this, Jesus departed elsewhere; and a great number of people followed Him, all of whom He cured.
16 But He gave them strict injunctions not to blaze abroad His doings,
17 that those words of the Prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled,
18 "This is My servant whom I have chosen, My dearly loved One in whom My soul takes pleasure. I will put My spirit upon Him, and He will announce justice to the nations.
19 He will not wrangle or raise His voice, nor will His voice be heard in the broadways.
20 A crushed reed He will not utterly break, nor will He quench the still smouldering wick, until He has led on Justice to victory.
21 And on His name shall the nations rest their hopes."
