A Woman with a Disabling Spirit

¹⁰ Now ^(A)he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath. ¹¹ And behold, there was a woman who had had ^(B)a disabling spirit for eighteen years. She was bent over and could not fully straighten herself. ¹² When Jesus saw her, he called her over and said to her, “Woman, you are freed from your disability.” ¹³ And he ^(C)laid his hands on her, and immediately she was made straight, and she ^(D)glorified God. ¹⁴ But ^(E)the ruler of the synagogue, indignant because Jesus ^(F)had healed on the Sabbath, said to the people, ^(G)“There are six days in which work ought to be done. Come on those days and be healed, and not on the Sabbath day.” ¹⁵ Then the Lord answered him, “You hypocrites! ^(H)Does not each of you on the Sabbath untie his ox or his donkey from the manger and lead it away to water it? ¹⁶ And ought not this woman, ^(I)a daughter of Abraham whom ^(J)Satan bound for eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath day?” ¹⁷ As he said these things, ^(K)all his adversaries were put to shame, and ^(L)all the people rejoiced at all the glorious things that were done by him.
