1 It happened on the Sabbath Day when he went into the house of a certain ruler among Pharisees to take a meal, that they were watching him.

2 And lo! there was in front of him a man who had dropsy.

3 So Jesus questioned the lawyers and the Pharisees, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath Day or not?"

4 They kept silent. Then Jesus took him and healed him and let him go.
