Luke 13:15-17

New Testament for Everyone

¹⁵ “You bunch of hypocrites!” replied Jesus. “You would all be quite happy to untie an ox or a donkey from its stall on the sabbath day and lead it out for a drink! ¹⁶ And isn’t it right that this daughter of Abraham, tied up by the satan for these eighteen years, should be untied from her chains on the sabbath day?”

¹⁷ At that, all the people who had been opposing him were ashamed. The whole crowd was overjoyed at all the splendid things he was doing.
