Luke 6:1-19

11NowG1161 it happenedG1096 that He was passingG1279 throughG1223 some grainfieldsG4702 on a SabbathG4521; and His disciplesG3101 2were pickingG5089 the headsG4719 of grainG4719, rubbingG5597 them in their handsG5495, and eatingG2068 the grain. 2But someG5100 of the PhariseesG5330 saidG3004, “WhyG5101 do you doG4160 whatG3739 3is not lawfulG1832 on the SabbathG4521?” 3And JesusG2424 answeringG611 them saidG3004, “Have you not evenG3761 readG314 4whatG3739 DavidG1160 didG4160 whenG3698 he was hungryG3983, he and thoseG3588 who were with him, 4howG5613 he enteredG1525 the houseG3624 of GodG2316, and tookG2983 and ateG2068 the 5consecratedG4286 breadG740 whichG3739 6is not lawfulG1832 for any to eatG2068 exceptG1508 the priestsG2409 aloneG3441, and gaveG1325 it to his companionsG3588G3326?” 5And He was sayingG3004 to them, “The SonG5207 of ManG444 is LordG2962 of the SabbathG4521.”

67On anotherG2087 SabbathG4521 He enteredG1525 8the synagogueG4864 and was teachingG1321; and there was a manG444 thereG1563 9whoseG2532G846 rightG1188 handG5495 was witheredG3584. 7The scribesG1122 and the PhariseesG5330 10were watchingG3906 Him closelyG3906 to see ifG1487 He healedG2323 on the SabbathG4521, soG2443 that they might findG2147 reason to accuseG2723 Him. 8But He 11knewG3609 12whatG1261 they were thinkingG1261, and He saidG3004 to the manG435 with the witheredG3584 handG5495, “GetG1453 up and 13comeG2476 forwardG1519G3319!” And he gotG450 up and 14cameG2476 forward. 9And JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “I askG1905 you, is it lawfulG1832 to doG15 goodG15 orG2228 to doG2554 harmG2554 on the SabbathG4521, to saveG4982 a lifeG5590 orG2228 to destroyG622 it?” 10After 15lookingG4017 aroundG4017 at them allG3956, He saidG3004 to him, “StretchG1614 out your handG5495!” And he didG4160 so; and his handG5495 was restoredG600. 11But they themselvesG846 were filledG4092 with 16rageG454, and discussedG1255 togetherG4314G240 whatG5101G302 they might doG4160 to JesusG2424.

12It was 17at thisG3778 timeG2250 that He wentG1831 offG1831 to 18the mountainG3735 to 19prayG4336, and He spentG1273 the wholeG1273 nightG1273 in prayerG4335 to GodG2316. 13And whenG3753 dayG2250 cameG1096, 20He calledG4377 His disciplesG3101 to Him and choseG1586 twelveG1427 of them, whomG3739 He alsoG2532 namedG3687 as 21apostlesG652: 14SimonG4613, whomG3739 He alsoG2532 namedG3687 PeterG4074, and AndrewG406 his brotherG80; and 22JamesG2385 and JohnG2491; and PhilipG5376 and BartholomewG918; 15and 23MatthewG3102 and ThomasG2381; JamesG2385 the son of AlphaeusG256, and SimonG4613 who was calledG2564 the ZealotG2208; 16JudasG2455 the son of JamesG2385, and JudasG2455 IscariotG2469, whoG3739 becameG1096 a traitorG4273.

17Jesus 24cameG2597 downG2597 with them and stoodG2476 on a levelG3977 placeG5117; and there was 25a largeG4183 crowdG3793 of His disciplesG3101, and a greatG4183 throngG4128 of peopleG2992 from allG3956 JudeaG2453 and JerusalemG2419 and the coastalG3882 regionG3882 of 26TyreG5184 and SidonG4605, 18whoG3739 had comeG2064 to hearG191 Him and to be healedG2390 of their diseasesG3554; and thoseG3588 who were troubledG1776 with uncleanG169 spiritsG4151 were being curedG2323. 19And allG3956 the 27peopleG3793 were tryingG2212 to 28touchG681 Him, for 29powerG1411 was comingG1831 from Him and healingG2390 them allG3956.
