* And when they had brought (5631 ) their ships to land , they forsook (5631 ) all , and followed (5656 ) him . * And it came to pass (5633 ), when he was (5750 ) in a certain city , behold (5628 ) a man full of leprosy : who seeing (5631 ) Jesus fell (5631 ) on his face , and besought (5681 ) him , saying (5723 ), Lord , if thou wilt (5725 ), thou canst (5736 ) make me clean (5658 ). * And he put forth (5660 ) his hand , and touched (5662 ) him , saying (5631 ), I will (5719 ): be thou clean (5682 ). And immediately the leprosy departed (5627 ) from him . * And he charged (5656 ) him to tell (5629 ) no man : but go (5631 ), and shew (5657 ) thyself to the priest , and offer (5628 ) for thy cleansing , according as Moses commanded (5656 ), for a testimony unto them . * But so much the more went there a fame abroad (5711 ) of him : and great multitudes came together (5711 ) to hear (5721 ), and to be healed (5745 ) by him of their infirmities . * And he withdrew (5713 ) (5723 ) himself into the wilderness , and prayed (5740 ). * And it came to pass (5633 ) on a certain day , as he was (5713 ) teaching (5723 ), that there were (5713 ) Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by (5740 ), which were (5713 ) come (5756 ) out of every town of Galilee , and Judaea , and Jerusalem : and the power of the Lord was (5713 ) present to heal (5738 ) them . * And , behold (5628 ), men brought (5723 ) in a bed a man which was (5713 ) taken with a palsy (5772 ): and they sought (5707 ) means to bring him in (5629 ), and to lay (5629 ) him before him . * And when they could not find (5631 ) by what way they might bring him in (5632 ) because of the multitude , they went (5631 ) upon the housetop , and let him down (5656 ) through the tiling with his couch into the midst before Jesus . * And when he saw (5631 ) their faith , he said (5627 ) unto him , Man , thy sins are forgiven (5769 ) thee . * And the scribes and the Pharisees began (5662 ) to reason (5738 ), saying (5723 ), Who is (5748 ) this which speaketh (5719 ) blasphemies ? Who can (5736 ) forgive (5721 ) sins , but God alone ? * But when Jesus perceived (5631 ) their thoughts , he answering (5679 ) said (5627 ) unto them , What reason ye (5736 ) in your hearts ? * Whether is (5748 ) easier , to say (5629 ), Thy sins be forgiven (5769 ) thee ; or to say (5629 ), Rise up (5669 ) and walk (5720 )?
