Mark 3:1-6

International Standard Version

Jesus Heals a Man with a Paralyzed Hand^(A)

3 Jesus^[a] went into the synagogue again, and a man with a paralyzed hand was there. ² The people^[b] watched Jesus^[c] closely to see whether he would heal him on the Sabbath,^[d] intending to accuse him of doing something wrong. ³ He told the man with the paralyzed hand, “Come forward.”^{[e] 4} Then he asked them, “Is it lawful to do good or to do evil on Sabbath days,^[f] to save a life or to destroy it?” But they remained silent.

⁵ Jesus^[g] looked around at them in anger, deeply hurt because of their hard hearts. Then he told the man, “Hold out your hand.” The man^[h] held it out, and his hand was restored to health. ⁶ Immediately the Pharisees and Herodians^[i] went out and began to plot how to kill him.
