Matthew 12:8-12

8For the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”

9Now when He had departed from there, He went into their synagogue.

10And behold, there was a man who had a withered hand. And they asked Him, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”—that they might accuse Him.

11Then He said to them, “What man is there among you who has one sheep, and if it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will not lay hold of it and lift it out?

12Of how much more value then is a man than a sheep? Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.”
