Luke 14:1-6
World English Bible
14 When he went into the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees on a Sabbath to eat bread, they were watching him. 2 Behold, a certain man who had dropsy was in front of him. 3 Jesus, answering, spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”
4 But they were silent.
He took him, and healed him, and let him go. 5 He answered them, “Which of you, if your son[a] or an ox fell into a well, wouldn’t immediately pull him out on a Sabbath day?”
6 They couldn’t answer him regarding these things.

Jesus Heals a Man on the Sabbath
14 One Sabbath, Jesus[a] went to the house of a leader of the Pharisees to eat a meal. The guests[b] were watching Jesus[c] closely. 2 A man whose body was swollen with fluid suddenly appeared in front of him. 3 So Jesus asked the Pharisees and experts in the Law, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath or not?” 4 But they kept silent. So he took hold of the man,[d] healed him, and sent him away. 5 Then he asked them, “If your son[e] or ox falls into a well on the Sabbath day, you would pull him out immediately, wouldn’t you?” 6 And they couldn’t argue with him about this.
