• 10. and a man with a shriveled hand was there. Looking for a reason to accuse Jesus, they asked him, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?"
• 11. He said to them, "If any of you has a sheep and it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will you not take hold of it and lift it out?
• 12. How much more valuable is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath."
• 13. Then he said to the man, "Stretch out your hand." So he stretched it out and it was completely restored, just as sound as the other.
• 14. But the Pharisees went out and plotted how they might kill Jesus.
