3 And they come, bringing to him a man sick of the palsy, borne of four.
4 And not being able to bring [the man] to him because of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed on which the sick of the palsy lay.
5 And Jesus seeing their faith says to the sick of the palsy, Child, your sins are forgiven.
6 But there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts,
7 Why does this man thus speak? He blasphemes. Who can forgive sins but one, God?
8 And immediately Jesus, perceiving in his spirit that they so reasoned to themselves, says to them, Why do you{} reason these things in your{} hearts?
9 Which is easier, to say to the sick of the palsy, Your sins are forgiven; or to say, Arise, and take up your bed, and walk?
10 But that you{} may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins--he says to the sick of the palsy:
11 I say to you, Arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.
12 And he arose, and immediately took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion.
