Luke:5:17-26




nsb@Luke:5:17 @ One day when he was teaching, Pharisees and doctors of the Law were in the crowd. People came from every village of Galilee, Judea and Jerusalem. God’s power was with him to heal.

nsb@Luke:5:18 @ Men brought a man on a bed. He was paralyzed. They tried to bring him in and lay him before Jesus.

nsb@Luke:5:19 @ They could not find a way to bring him in because of the crowd. So they went up to the housetop and let the man and the bed down through the tiles to Jesus.

nsb@Luke:5:20 @ Seeing their faith, Jesus said: »Man your sins are forgiven you.«

nsb@Luke:5:21 @ The scribes and the Pharisees reasoned saying: »Who is this that speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone?«

nsb@Luke:5:22 @ Jesus perceived their reasoning and said to them: »Why do you reason in your hearts?

nsb@Luke:5:23 @ »Which is easier to say your sins are forgiven or arise and walk?

nsb@Luke:5:24 @ »So you may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins,« he said to the man who was paralyzed, »I say to you, arise, take up your bed and go to your house.«

nsb@Luke:5:25 @ Immediately he rose up before them, took his bed and departed to his house, glorifying God.

nsb@Luke:5:26 @ Everyone was amazed and they glorified God. They were filled with fear. They said: »We have seen strange things today.«
