18 And lo, men bringing on a couch a man, who was having been palsied; and sought him to bring in, and to place in presence of him.
19 And not finding how they might bring in him, through the crowd, having gone up to the roof, through the tiles they let down him with the little bed into the midst in presence of the Jesus.
20 And seeing the faith of them, he said: O man, have been forgiven to thee the sins of thee.
21 And began to reason the scribes and the Pharisees, saying: Who is this who speaks blasphemies? who is able to forgive sins, if not alone the God?
22 Knowing but the Jesus the reasonings of them, answering said to them: Why do you reason in the hearts of you?
23 Which is easier to say: Have been forgiven to thee the sins of thee? or to to say: Arise and walk?
24 That but you may know, that authority has the son of the man on the earth to forgive sins, (he said to the having been palsied:) To thee I say: Arise, and having taken up the little bed of thee, go into the house of thee.
25 And instantly arising in presence of them, having taken up on which he had been laid, went into the house of himself, glorifying the God.
