* 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 )? * But that ye may know (5762 ) that the Son of man hath (5719 ) power upon earth to forgive (5721 ) sins , (he said (5627 ) unto the sick of the palsy (5772 ),) I say (5719 ) unto thee , Arise (5669 ), and take up (5660 ) thy couch , and go (5737 ) into thine house . * And immediately he rose up (5631 ) before them , and took up (5660 ) that whereon he lay (5711 ), and departed (5627 ) to his own house , glorifying (5723 ) God . * And they were (5627 ) all amazed , and they glorified (5707 ) God , and were filled (5681 ) with fear , saying (5723 ), We have seen (5627 ) strange things to day .
