Jesus Heals a Man’s Hand^(A)

⁶ On another Sabbath day Jesus went into the synagogue and was teaching, and a man with a ·crippled [paralyzed; shriveled; ^Twithered] right hand was there. ⁷ The ·teachers of the law [scribes] and the Pharisees were watching closely to see if Jesus would heal on the Sabbath day so they could ·accuse [make a charge against] him. ⁸ But he knew what they were thinking, and he said to the man with the ·crippled [paralyzed; shriveled; ^Twithered] hand, “Stand up here in ·the middle [front] of everyone.” The man got up and stood there. ⁹ Then Jesus said to them, “I ask you, which is lawful on the Sabbath day: to do good or to do ·evil [harm], to save a life or to destroy it?” ¹⁰ Jesus looked around at all of them and said to the man, “·Hold [Stretch] out your hand.” The man ·held [stretched] out his hand, and it was ·healed [restored].

¹¹ But the Pharisees and the ·teachers of the law [scribes] were very angry and discussed with each other what they could do to Jesus.
