8 The gardener responded, ‘Lord, give it one more year, and I will dig around it and give it fertilizer.
9 Maybe it will produce fruit next year; if not, then you can cut it down.’"
10 Jesus was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath.
11 A woman was there who had been disabled by a spirit for eighteen years. She was bent over and couldn’t stand up straight.
12 When he saw her, Jesus called her to him and said, "Woman, you are set free from your sickness."
13 He placed his hands on her and she straightened up at once and praised God.
14 The synagogue leader, incensed that Jesus had healed on the Sabbath, responded, "There are six days during which work is permitted. Come and be healed on those days, not on the Sabbath day."
