Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)
6 And it came about in another Sabbath also that he entered into the synagogue and taught. And there was there a man whose right hand was withered. 7 And the scribes and Pharisees watched Jesus to see if he would heal on the Sabbath day, to find an accusation against him. 8 But he knew their thoughts, and said to the man that had the withered hand, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose and stepped forth. 9 Then Jesus said to them, I will ask you a question: whether it is lawful on the Sabbath days to do good, or to do evil; to save life, or to destroy it? 10 And he looked around at them all and said to the man, Stretch forth your hand. And he did so, and his hand was restored and made as whole as the other.
11 And they were filled full of madness, and conferred with each other, what they might do to Jesus.
