Mark:2:1-12
nasb@Mark:2:1 @When He had come back to Capernaum several days afterward, it was heard that He was at home.
nasb@Mark:2:2 @And many were gathered together, so that there was no longer room, not even near the door; and He was speaking the word to them.
nasb@Mark:2:3 @And they came, bringing to Him a paralytic, carried by four men.
nasb@Mark:2:4 @Being unable to get to Him because of the crowd, they removed the roof above Him; and when they had dug an opening, they let down the pallet on which the paralytic was lying.
nasb@Mark:2:5 @And Jesus seeing their faith said to the paralytic, " Son, your sins are forgiven."
nasb@Mark:2:6 @But some of the scribes were sitting there and reasoning in their hearts,
nasb@Mark:2:7" @Why does this man speak that way? He is blaspheming; who can forgive sins but God alone?"
nasb@Mark:2:8 @Immediately Jesus, aware in His spirit that they were reasoning that way within themselves, said to them, "Why are you reasoning about these things in your hearts?
nasb@Mark:2:9" @Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, 'Your sins are forgiven'; or to say, 'Get up, and pick up your pallet and walk'?
nasb@Mark:2:10" @But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins"--He said to the paralytic,
nasb@Mark:2:11" @I say to you, get up, pick up your pallet and go home."
nasb@Mark:2:12 @And he got up and immediately picked up the pallet and went out in the sight of everyone, so that they were all amazed and were glorifying God, saying, " We have never seen anything like this."
