*
And again He entered Capernaum after some days ,
and it was heard that He was in the house .
*
Immediately many gathered together ,
so that there was no longer room to receive them ,
not even near the door .
And He preached the word to them .
*
Then they came to Him ,
bringing a paralytic who was carried by four men .
*
And when they could not come near Him because of the crowd ,
they uncovered the roof where He was .
So when they had broken through ,
they let down the bed on which the paralytic was lying .
*
When Jesus saw their faith ,
He said to the paralytic , "
Son ,
your sins are forgiven you ."
*
And some of the scribes were sitting there and reasoning in their hearts ,
* "
Why does this Man speak blasphemies like this ?
Who can forgive sins but God alone ?"
*
But immediately ,
when Jesus perceived in His spirit that they reasoned thus within themselves ,
He said to them , "
Why do you reason about these things in your hearts ?
*
Which is easier ,
to say to the paralytic , "
Your sins are forgiven you ,'
or to say , "
Arise ,
take up your bed and walk '?
*
But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins "--
He said to the paralytic ,
* "
I say to you ,
arise ,
take up your bed ,
and go to your house ."
*
Immediately he arose ,
took up the bed ,
and went out in the presence of them all ,
so that all were amazed and glorified God ,
saying , "
We never saw anything like this !"
