9. And having left there, He went into their congregation.
10. And see, there was a man having a withered hand. And they asked Him, saying, “Is it right to heal on the Sabbath?” – so as to accuse Him.
11. And He said to them, “What man is there among you who has one sheep, and if it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, shall not take hold of it and lift it out?
12. “How much more worth is a man than a sheep! So it is right to do good on the Sabbath.”
13. Then He said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” And he stretched it out, and it was restored, as healthy as the other.
14. But the Pharisees went out and took counsel against Him, so as to destroy Him.
15. But יהושע, knowing it, withdrew from there. And large crowds followed Him, and He healed them all,
16. and warned them not to make Him known,
17. in order that what was spoken by Yeshayahu the prophet, might be filled, saying,
18. “See, My Servant whom I have chosen, My Beloved in whom My being did delight. I shall put My Spirit upon Him, and He shall declare right-ruling to the nations.
19. “He shall not strive nor cry out, nor shall anyone hear His voice in the streets.
20. “A crushed reed He shall not break, and smoking flax He shall not quench, till He brings forth right-ruling forever.
21. “And the nations shall trust in His Name.”
22. Then they brought to Him one who was demon-possessed, blind and dumb. And He healed him, so that the blind and dumb man both spoke and saw.
23. And all the crowds were amazed and said, “Is this the Son of Dawiḏ?”
24. But when the Pharisees heard it they said, “This one does not cast out demons except by Be‛elzebul, the ruler of the demons.”
25. And יהושע knew their thoughts, and said to them, “Every reign divided against itself is laid waste, and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand.
26. “And if Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then does his reign stand?
27. “And if I, by Be‛elzebul, do cast out demons, by whom do your sons cast them out? Because of this they shall be your judges.
