1 And Jeshu again entered the congregation: and a certain man was there whose hand was withered;

2 and they watched him whether he would cure him on the shabath, that they might accuse him.

3 And he said to him, the man with the withered hand, Stand up in the midst.

4 He said also to them, Is it lawful on the shabath to do good, or (that) which (is) evil? to save life, or to destroy it? But they were silent.

5 And he beheld them with indignation, while it grieved him on account of the hardness of their hearts. And he said to the man, Stretch out thy hand. And he stretched (it); and his hand straightened.
