Matthew 12:8-23 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

8. For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day.

9. And when he was departed from there, he went into their synagogue:

10. And, behold, there was a man who had his hand withered. And they asked him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath days? that they might accuse him.

11. And he said unto them,

12. How much then is a man better than a sheep? Therefore it is lawful to do well on the sabbath days.

13. Then he said to the man,

14. Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council against him, how they might destroy him.

15. But when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from there: and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all;

16. And charged them that they should not make him known:

17. That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying,

18. Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall show justice to the Gentiles.

19. He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice in the streets.

20. A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he sends forth justice unto victory.

21. And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.

22. Then was brought unto him one possessed with a demon, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, so that the blind and dumb both spoke and saw.

23. And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David?
