The Holy Gospel According to Mark   3: 1-6

3:1 And again, he entered into the synagogue. And there was a man there who had a withered hand.
3:2 And they observed him, to see if he would cure on the Sabbaths, so that they might accuse him.
3:3 And he said to the man who had the withered hand, “Stand up in the middle.”
3:4 And he said to them: “Is it lawful to do good on the Sabbaths, or to do evil, to give health to a life, or to destroy?” But they remained silent.
3:5 And looking around at them with anger, being very saddened over the blindness of their hearts, he said to the man, “Extend your hand.” And he extended it, and his hand was restored to him.
3:6 Then the Pharisees, going out, immediately took counsel with the Herodians against him, as to how they might destroy him.
