Mark 3:1-12

A Man with a Withered Hand

1 aAgain bhe entered the synagogue, and a man was there with a withered hand. 2And cthey watched Jesus,
Greek him
to see whether he would heal him on the Sabbath, so that they might accuse him.
3And he said to the man with the withered hand, Come here.” 4And he said to them, e“Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do harm, to save life or to kill?” But they were silent. 5And he flooked around at them with anger, grieved at gtheir hardness of heart, and said to the man, Stretch out your hand.” hHe stretched it out, and his hand was restored. 6 iThe Pharisees went out and immediately jheld counsel with kthe Herodians against him, how to destroy him.

A Great Crowd Follows Jesus

7 lJesus withdrew with his disciples to the sea, and ma great crowd followed, from Galilee and Judea 8and Jerusalem and nIdumea and from beyond the Jordan and from around oTyre and Sidon. When the great crowd heard all that he was doing, they came to him. 9And he told his disciples to phave a boat ready for him because of the crowd, lest they qcrush him, 10for rhe had healed many, so that all who had sdiseases pressed around him tto touch him. 11 uAnd whenever the unclean spirits saw him, they vfell down before him and cried out, “You are wthe Son of God.” 12And xhe strictly ordered them not to make him known.
