Matthew:9:2-8
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And behold ,
they brought to him a man sick with the palsy ,
lying on a bed :
and Jesus ,
seeing their faith ,
said to the sick of the palsy ,
Son ,
be of good cheer ;
thy sins are forgiven thee .
*
And behold ,
certain of the scribes said within themselves ,
This man blasphemeth .
*
And Jesus ,
knowing their thoughts ,
said ,
Why think ye evil in your hearts ?
*
For which is easier ,
to say ,
Thy sins are forgiven thee ;
or to say ,
Arise ,
and walk ?
*
But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins , (
then saith he to the sick with the palsy ,)
Arise ,
take up thy bed ,
and go to thy house .
*
And he arose ,
and departed to his house .
*
But when the multitude saw it ,
they marveled ,
and glorified God ,
who had given such power to men .
