Mark 3:1-6

Moffatt(i) 1 Again he entered the synagogue. Now a man was there whose hand was withered, 2 and they watched to see if he would heal him on the sabbath, so as to get a charge against him. 3 He said to the man with the withered hand, "Rise and come forward;" 4 then he asked them, "Is it right to help or to hurt on the sabbath, to save life or to kill?" They were silent. 5 Then glancing round him in anger and vexation at their obstinacy he told the man, "Stretch out your hand." He stretched it out and his hand was quite restored. 6 On this the Pharisees withdrew and at once joined the Herodians in a plot against him, to destroy him.
