New International Reader's Version

Luke 6:6-10 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

6. On another Sabbath day, Jesus went into the synagogue and was teaching. A man whose right hand was weak and twisted was there.

7. The Pharisees and the teachers of the law were trying to find fault with Jesus. So they watched him closely. They wanted to see if he would heal on the Sabbath.

8. But Jesus knew what they were thinking. He spoke to the man who had the weak and twisted hand. "Get up and stand in front of everyone," he said. So the man got up and stood there.

9. Then Jesus said to them, "What does the Law say we should do on the Sabbath day? Should we do good? Or should we do evil? Should we save life? Or should we destroy it?"

10. He looked around at all of them. Then he said to the man, "Stretch out your hand." He did, and his hand was as good as new.
