	NET New English Translation	ESV English Standard Version	NIV New International Version
2	They watched Jesus closely to see if he would heal him on the Sabbath, so that they could accuse him.	And they watched Jesus, to see whether he would heal him on the Sabbath, so that they might accuse him.	Some of them were looking for a reason to accuse Jesus, so they watched him closely to see if he would heal him on the Sabbath.
3	So he said to the man who had the withered hand, \|Stand up among all these people.\|	And he said to the man with the withered hand, “Come here.”	Jesus said to the man with the shriveled hand, “Stand up in front of everyone.”
4	Then he said to them, \|Is it lawful to do good on the Sabbath, or evil, to save a life or destroy it?\| But they were silent.	And he said to them, “Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do harm, to save life or to kill?” But they were silent.	Then Jesus asked them, “Which is lawful on the Sabbath: to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?” But they remained silent.
5	After looking around at them in anger, grieved by the hardness of their hearts, he said to the man, \|Stretch out your hand.\| He stretched it out, and his hand was restored.	And he looked around at them with anger, grieved at their hardness of heart, and said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out, and his hand was restored.	He looked around at them in anger and, deeply distressed at their stubborn hearts, said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out, and his hand was completely restored.
