Luke 13:10-17

New American Standard Bible

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.
