Healing on the Sabbath

10 Now Jesus was (A)teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath. 11 And [a]there was a woman who for eighteen years had had (B)a [b]sickness caused by a spirit; and she was bent over double, and could not straighten up at all. 12 When Jesus saw her, He called her over and said to her, “Woman, you are freed from your sickness.” 13 And He (C)laid His hands on her; and immediately she stood up straight again, and began (D)glorifying God. 14 But (E)the synagogue leader, indignant because Jesus (F)had healed on the Sabbath, began saying to the crowd in response, “(G)There are six days during which work should be done; so come during them and get healed, and not on the Sabbath day.” 15 But (H)the Lord answered him and said, “You hypocrites, (I)does each of you on the Sabbath not untie his ox or donkey from the stall and lead it away to water it? 16 And this woman, (J)a daughter of Abraham as she is, whom (K)Satan has bound for [c]eighteen long years, should she not have been released from this restraint on the Sabbath day?” 17 And as He said this, all His opponents were being [d]humiliated; and (L)the entire crowd was rejoicing over all the glorious things being done by Him.

Jesus Heals a Woman On The Sabbath. The Synagogue Official Objects

10 Now He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath, 11 and behold— there was a woman having a spirit of [a] infirmity eighteen years. And she was bending-over, and not being able to bend-up completely. 12 And having seen her, Jesus called to her and said to her, “Woman, you have been released from your infirmity”. 13 And He laid His hands on her. And at-once she was made-straight. And she was glorifying God. 14 But having responded, the synagogue official— being indignant because Jesus cured on the Sabbath— was saying to the crowd that “There are six days on which one ought-to work. So be cured while coming on them, and not on the day of the Sabbath”. 15 But the Lord responded to him and said, “Hypocrites! Does not each of you on the Sabbath release his ox or donkey from the manger[b], and having led it away, water it? 16 But this one, being a daughter of Abraham whom Satan bound for behold, ten and eight years— ought she not to have been released from this bond on the day of the Sabbath?” 17 And while He was saying these things, all the ones being opposed to Him were being put-to-shame.
