A Man with Dropsy Healed on the Sabbath

14 One Sabbath, when Jesus went to eat at the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees, the people there were watching him closely. 2 And behold, there in front of him was a man suffering from dropsy. 3 In response Jesus said to the lawyers and Pharisees, “Is it lawful to heal on the [fn]Sabbath?” 4 But they remained silent. So Jesus took hold of the man, healed him, and sent him away. 5 Then he said to them, “Which of you whose [fn]son or ox falls into a pit on the Sabbath will not immediately pull him out?” 6 But they could give [fn]him no answer about these things.
