Luke 6:9

Contemporary English Version 1995

Then Jesus asked, “On the Sabbath should we do good deeds or evil deeds? Should we save someone's life or destroy it?”

See the chapter Copy

Jesus turned and asked the Pharisees and the teachers of the Law of Moses, “Is it right to heal on the Sabbath?”

Then he asked, “On the Sabbath should we do good deeds or evil deeds? Should we save someone's life or destroy it?” But no one said a word.

Then they all went on to another village.

Jesus knew what they were thinking, so he told the man to stand up where everyone could see him. And the man stood up.

After he had looked around at everyone, he told the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He did, and his bad hand became completely well.
