6 ⁶ On another Sabbath he had gone to synagogue and was teaching. There happened to be a man in the congregation whose right arm was withered; 6 ⁷ and the lawyers and the Pharisees were on the watch to see whether Jesus would cure him on the Sabbath, so that they could find a charge to bring against him. 6 ⁸ But he knew what was in their minds and said to the man with the withered arm, 'Get up and stand out here.' So he got up and stood there. 6 ⁹ Then Jesus said to them, 'I put the question to you: is it permitted to do good or to do evil on the Sabbath, to save life or to destroy it?' 6 ¹⁰ He looked round at them all and then said to the man, 'Stretch out your arm.' He did so, and his arm was restored. 6 ¹¹ But they were beside themselves with anger, and began to discuss among themselves what they could do to Jesus.
