1Another time Jesus went into the synagogue, and a man with a shriveled hand was there.

2So they watched Him closely, whether He would heal him on the Sabbath, so that they might accuse Him.

2Some of them were looking for a reason to accuse Jesus, so they watched him closely to see if he would heal him on the Sabbath.

3And He said to the man who had the withered hand, “Step forward.”

3Jesus said to the man with the shriveled hand, "Stand up in front of everyone."

4Then 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.

4Then Jesus asked them, "Which is lawful on the Sabbath: to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?" But they remained silent.

8When they heard about all he was doing, many people came to him from Judea, Jerusalem, Idumea, and the regions across the Jordan and around Tyre and Sidon.

9So He told His disciples that a small boat should be kept ready for Him because of the multitude, lest they should crush Him.

9Because of the crowd he told his disciples to have a small boat ready for him, to keep the people from crowding him.

20Then the multitude came together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread.

21But when His own people heard about this, they went out to lay hold of Him, for they said, “He is out of His mind.”

27No one can enter a strong man’s house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man. And then he will plunder his house.

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

28Truly I tell you, people can be forgiven all their sins and every slander they utter,

29but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation” —

29but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven; they are guilty of an eternal sin."

35Whoever does God's will is my brother and sister and mother."
