Verse
Luke - ch 6 v 1 - 20
- And it came to pass on the second sabbath after the first, that he went through corn-fields; and his disciples plucked the ears of corn, and ate, rubbing them in their hands.
- And certain of the Pharisees said to them, Why do ye that which it is not lawful to do on the sabbath-days?
- And Jesus answering them, said, Have ye not read so much as this, what David did, when himself was hungry, and they who were with him;
- How he went into the house of God, and took and ate the show-bread, and gave also to them that were with him, which it is not lawful to eat but for the priests alone?
- And he said to them, That the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
- And it came to pass also on another sabbath, that he entered into the synagogue, and taught: and there was a man whose right hand was withered:
- And the scribes and Pharisees watched him, to see whether he would heal on the sabbath; that they might find an accusation against him.
- But he knew their thoughts, and said to the man who had the withered hand, Rise, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose, and stood forth.
- Then said Jesus to them, I will ask you one thing; Is it lawful on the sabbath-days to do good, or to do evil? to save life, or to destroy it?
- And looking around upon them all, he said to the man, Stretch forth thy hand. And he did so: and his hand was restored whole as the other.
- And they were filled with madness; and communed one with another what they might do to Jesus.
- And it came to pass in those days, that he went out to a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.
- And when it was day, he called to him his disciples: and of them he chose twelve, whom also he named Apostles;
- Simon (whom he also named Peter) and Andrew his brother, James and John, and Philip and Bartholomew,
- Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alpheus, and Simon called Zelotes,
- And Judas the brother of James, and Judas Iscariot, who also was the traitor.
- And he came down with them, and stood in the plain; and the company of his disciples, and a great multitude of people out of all Judea and Jerusalem, and from the sea-coast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases;
- And they that were afflicted with unclean spirits: and they were healed.
- And the whole multitude sought to touch him; for there went virtue out of him, and healed them all.
- And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed are ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.
