Matthew 12:9–14

A Man with a Withered Hand

9 qHe went on from there and entered their synagogue. 10 And a man was there with a withered hand. And they asked him, r“Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”—so that they might accuse him. 11 He said to them, “Which one of you who shas a sheep, if it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will not take hold of it and tlift it out? 12 Of uhow much more value is a man vthan a sheep! So it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.” 13 Then he said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” And the man stretched it out, and it was restored, healthy like the other. 14 But the Pharisees went out and conspired against him, whow to destroy him.


Luke 6:6–11

A Man with a Withered Hand

6 jOn another Sabbath, he entered the synagogue and was teaching, and a man was there whose right hand was withered. 7 And the scribes and the Pharisees kwatched him, to see whether he would heal on the Sabbath, so that they might find a reason to accuse him. 8 But he 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, lis it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do harm, to save life or to destroy it?” 10 And after 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 were filled with mfury and discussed with one another what they might do to Jesus.
