A Man with a Withered Hand Healed

3 And he entered into the synagogue again, and a man who had a withered hand was there. ² And they were watching him closely to see if he would heal him on the Sabbath, in order that they could accuse him. ³ And he said to the man who had the withered hand, “Come into the middle.” ⁴ And he said to them, “Is it permitted on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?” But they were silent. ⁵ And looking around at them with anger, grieved at the hardness of their hearts, he said to the man, “Stretch out your^[a] hand.” And he stretched it^[b] out, and his hand was restored. ⁶ And the Pharisees went out immediately with the Herodians and began to conspire^[c] against him with regard to how they could destroy him.
