Jesus Heals on the Sabbath

And he entered again into the synagogue; and there was there a man having his hand dried up.

1

Healing on the Sabbath

And He entered the synagogue again, and a man was there who had a withered hand.

2

And they watched him if he would heal him on the sabbath, that they might accuse him.

2

So they watched Him closely, whether He would heal him on the Sabbath, so that they might [a]accuse Him.

3

And he says to the man who had his hand dried up, Rise up [and come] into the midst.

3

And He said to the man who had the withered hand, [b]“Step forward.”

4

And he says to them, Is it lawful on the sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill? But they were silent.

4

Then He said to them, “Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?” But they kept silent.

5

And looking round upon them with anger, distressed at the hardening of their heart, he says to the man, Stretch out thy hand. And he stretched [it] out, and his hand was restored.

5

And when He had looked around at them with anger, being grieved by the hardness of their hearts, He said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” And he stretched it out, and his hand was restored [c]as whole as the other.

6

And the Pharisees going out straightway with the Herodians took counsel against him, how they might destroy him.

6

Then the Pharisees went out and immediately plotted with the Herodians against Him, how they might destroy Him.

7

A Great Multitude Follows Jesus

But Jesus withdrew with His disciples to the sea. And a great multitude from Galilee followed Him, and from Judea

8

and Jerusalem and Idumea and beyond the Jordan; and those from Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, when they heard how many things He was doing, came to Him.

9

And he spoke to his disciples, in order that a little ship should wait upon him on account of the crowd, that they might not press upon him.

9

So He told His disciples that a small boat should be kept ready for Him because of the multitude, lest they should crush Him.

10

For he healed many, so that they beset him that they might touch him, as many as had plagues.

10

For He healed many, so that as many as had afflictions pressed about Him to touch Him.

11

And the unclean spirits, when they beheld him, fell down before him, and cried saying, *Thou* art the Son of God.

22

And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, “He has Beelzebub,” and, “By the ruler of the demons He casts out demons.”

23

And having called them to [him], he said to them in parables, How can Satan cast out Satan?

23

So He called them to Himself and said to them in parables: “How can Satan cast out Satan?

If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.

25

And if a house has become divided against itself, that house cannot subsist.

The Unpardonable Sin

Verily I say unto you, that all sins shall be forgiven to the sons of men, and all the injurious speeches [with] which they may speak injuriously;

28

The Unpardonable Sin

“Assuredly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they may utter;

29

but whosoever shall speak injuriously against the Holy Spirit, to eternity has no forgiveness; but lies under the guilt of an everlasting sin;

29

but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation” —

30

because they said, he has an unclean spirit.

30

because they said, “He has an unclean spirit.”

32

And a multitude was sitting around Him; and they said to Him, “Look, Your mother and Your brothers [h]are outside seeking You.”

33

And he answered them, saying, Who is my mother or my brethren?

But He answered them, saying, “Who is My mother, or My brothers?”

34

And looking around in a circuit at those that were sitting around him, he says, Behold my mother and my brethren:

34

And He looked around in a circle at those who sat about Him, and said, “Here are My mother and My brothers!

35

for whosoever shall do the will of God, *he* is my brother, and sister, and mother.

35

For whoever does the will of God is My brother and My sister and mother.”
