Luke 13:10-17
"And he was teaching in one of the synago-
gues on the sabbath.
And, behold, there was a woman which had
a spirit of
infirmity
eighteen
years,
and was
bowed
together,
and could
in no wise
lift up
herself.
And when Jesus saw her, he called her to
him, and said unto her, Woman, thou art
loosed from thine infirmity.
And he laid his hands on her: and immed-
iately she was made straight, and glorified
God.
And the ruler of the synagogue answered
with indignation, because that Jesus had
healed on the sabbath day, and said unto
the people, There are six days in which men
ought to work: in them therefore come and
be healed, and not on the sabbath day.
The Lord then answered him, and said,
Thou hypocrite, doth not each one of you
on the sabbath loose his ox or his ass from
the stall, and lead him away to watering?
And ought not this woman, being a
daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath
bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed
from this bond on the sabbath day?
And when he had said these things, all his
adversaries were ashamed: and all the
people rejoiced for all the glorious things
that were done by him."
Luke 13:10-17
