Matthew 12:9-14
Legacy Standard Bible
Jesus Heals a Man on the Sabbath
9 (A)And departing from there, He went into their synagogue. 10 And behold, a man was there whose hand was withered. And they questioned [a]Jesus, saying, “(B)Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”—so that they might accuse Him. 11 And He said to them, “(C)What man [b]is there among you who has a sheep, and if it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will not take hold of it and lift it out? 12 (D)How much more valuable then is a man than a sheep! So then, it is lawful to do [c]good on the Sabbath.” 13 Then He *said to the man, “Stretch out your hand!” (E)He stretched it out, and it was restored to [d]normal, like the other. 14 But going out, the Pharisees (F)took counsel together against Him, as to how they might destroy Him.

International Standard Version
Jesus Heals a Man with a Paralyzed Hand(A)
9 Moving on from there, Jesus[a] went into their synagogue. 10 Suddenly, a man with a paralyzed hand appeared. The people[b] asked Jesus[c] if it was lawful to heal on Sabbath days,[d] intending to accuse him of doing something wrong.
11 But he asked them, “Is there a man among you who, if he had one sheep and it fell into a ditch on the Sabbath, wouldn’t take hold of it and pull it out? 12 How much more is a human being worth than a sheep! So it is lawful to do good on Sabbath days.”[e]
13 Then he told the man, “Hold out your hand.” He held it out and it became normal, as healthy as his other hand. 14 The Pharisees, however, went out and plotted against Jesus[f] to kill him.
