Luke 13:10-17
1599 Geneva Bible
10 ¶ [a]And he taught in one of the Synagogues on the Sabbath day.
11 And behold, there was a woman which had a [b]spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could not lift up herself in any wise.
12 When Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said to her, Woman, thou art [c]loosed from thy disease.
13 And he laid his hands on her, and immediately she was made straight again, and glorified God.
14 [d]And the [e]ruler of the Synagogue answered with indignation, because that Jesus healed on the Sabbath day, and said unto the people, There are six days in which men ought to work: in them therefore come and be healed, and not on the Sabbath day.
15 Then answered him the Lord, and said, Hypocrite, doth not each one of you on the Sabbath day loose his ox or his ass from the stall, and lead him away to the water?
16 And ought not this daughter of Abraham, whom Satan had bound, lo, eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath day?
17 And when he said these things, all his adversaries were ashamed: but all the people rejoiced at all the excellent things that were done by him.
