Just complementing Jeff's answer with one written in sed:

sed -n '7,13 { /expression/ p; }' <file

This would print every line between lines 7 and 13 (inclusively) that matches the regular expression expression. The default output is turned off with -n so only the lines explicitly printed with the p command will be outputted.

A direct translation of the above sed script into awk:

awk 'NR == 7, NR == 13 { if (/expression/) print }' <file

The condition NR == 7, NR == 13 should be read as "from any input record for which NR is 13, to any input record for which NR is 17", where "input record" by default is a line and NR is the number of records (lines) read so far.
