John 7:21-23
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
21 Jesus responded and said to them, “I did one[a] work, and you all marvel! 22 For this reason[b] Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is from Moses, but it is from the fathers), and you circumcise a man on a Sabbath. 23 If a man receives circumcision on a Sabbath in order that the Law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry[c] at Me because I made an entire man sound[d] on a Sabbath?

- John 7:23 Or, galled, bitterly-angry.

John 7:21-23
New International Version
21 Jesus said to them, “I did one miracle,(A) and you are all amazed. 22 Yet, because Moses gave you circumcision(B) (though actually it did not come from Moses, but from the patriarchs),(C) you circumcise a boy on the Sabbath. 23 Now if a boy can be circumcised on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses may not be broken, why are you angry with me for healing a man’s whole body on the Sabbath?
