Luke 6:9 in Context — Luke 6
7 Les scribes et les pharisiens observaient Jésus, pour voir s’il ferait une guérison le jour du sabbat: c’était afin d’avoir sujet de l’accuser.
8 Mais il connaissait leurs pensées, et il dit à l’homme qui avait la main sèche: Lève-toi, et tiens-toi là au milieu. Il se leva, et se tint debout.
9 Et Jésus leur dit: Je vous demande s’il est permis, le jour du sabbat, de faire du bien ou de faire du mal, de sauver une personne ou de la tuer.
10 Alors, promenant ses regards sur eux tous, il dit à l’homme: Étends ta main. Il le fit, et sa main fut guérie.
11 Ils furent remplis de fureur, et ils se consultèrent pour savoir ce qu’ils feraient à Jésus.
