Matthew 12:9-13

Amplified Bible

⁹ Leaving there, He went into their synagogue.^{(A) 10} A man was there whose hand was withered. And they asked Jesus, “Is it lawful and permissible to heal on the Sabbath?”—they asked this so that they might accuse Him and bring charges into court. ¹¹ But He said to them, “What man is there among you who, if he has only one sheep and it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will not take hold of it and lift it out? ¹² How much more valuable then is a man than a sheep! So it is lawful and permissible to do good on the Sabbath.” ¹³ Then He said to the man, “Reach out your hand!” The man reached out and it was restored, as normal and healthy as the other.
