13:10 | Now he was teaching in their synagogue on the Sabbaths. |
13:11 | And behold, there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity for eighteen years. And she was bent over; and she was unable to look upwards at all. |
13:12 | And when Jesus saw her, he called her to himself, and he said to her, “Woman, you are released from your infirmity.” |
13:13 | And he laid his hands upon her, and immediately she was straightened, and she glorified God. |
13:14 | Then, as a result, the ruler of the synagogue became angry that Jesus had cured on the Sabbath, and he said to the crowd: “There are six days on which you ought to work. Therefore, come and be cured on those, and not on the day of the Sabbath.” |
13:15 | Then the Lord said to him in response: “You hypocrites! Does not each one of you, on the Sabbath, release his ox or donkey from the stall, and lead it to water? |
13:16 | So then, should not this daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has bound for lo these eighteen years, be released from this restraint on the day of the Sabbath?” |
13:17 | And as he was saying these things, all his adversaries were ashamed. And all the people rejoiced in everything that was being done gloriously by him. |
