Old Testament

New Testament

Luke 6:4-9 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

4. How he entered into the house of God, and took the bread of the Presence, and ate it, and gave it to those who were with him, though it is not lawful for anyone to eat it, except the priests alone?"

5. And he said to them, "For the Son of man is Lord, even of the Sabbath."

6. And it happened that, on another Sabbath, he entered into the synagogue, and he taught. And there was a man there, and his right hand was withered.

7. And the scribes and Pharisees observed whether he would heal on the Sabbath, so that they might thereby find an accusation against him.

8. Yet truly, he knew their thoughts, and so he said to the man who had the withered hand, "Rise up and stand in the middle." And rising up, he stood still.

9. Then Jesus said to them: "I ask you if it is lawful on the Sabbaths to do good, or to do evil? To give health to a life, or to destroy it?"
