And the scribes and Pharisees were watching Him, whether He would heal on the sabbath: that they might find how to accuse Him.

And, behold, a man having a withered hand; and they questioned Him, saying, "Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath?" that they might accuse Him.

And He saith to them, "Is it lawful on the sabbath to do good, or to do harm, to save a life, or to kill?" But they were silent.

And, behold, some of the scribes said among themselves, "This Man is blaspheming! "

"Why doth this Man speak thus? He blasphemeth! Who can forgive sins but One, God?"

And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, "Who is This that is speaking blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God only?"

And the Pharisees, seeing it, said to His disciples, Why is your Teacher eating with the tax-collectors and sinners?"

And the scribes of the Pharisees, seeing that He was eating with the sinners and tax-collectors, said to His disciples, "Why doth He eat with the tax-collectors and sinners?"

And the Pharisees and their scribes were murmuring against the disciples, saying, "Why are ye eating and drinking with the tax-collectors and sinners?"

"Why do Thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they do not wash their hands, when they eat bread!"

And the Pharisees and the scribes ask Him, "Why do not Thy disciples walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat with defiled hands?"

And the high priests and the whole Sanhedrin were seeking false witness against Jesus, that they might put Him to death; and they did not find any, though many false witnesses came forward. But afterward two false witnesses, coming forward, said, "This Man, said, 'I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.'"

And the high priests and all the Sanhedrin were seeking for testimony against Jesus, in order to put Him to death; and they were not finding it. For many were bearing false testimony against Him, and their testimonies were not agreed. And certain ones, standing up, were bearing false testimony against Him, saying,read more.
"We heard Him say, 'I will destroy this temple made with hands, and in three days I will build another made without hands.'" And not even so did their testimony agree.

Some of the Pharisees, therefore, said, "This Man is not from God, because He does not keep the sabbath." Others said, "How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?" And there was a division among them.
