Matthew 9:2-8
2 aAnd they brought to Him a bparalytic lying on a bed. Seeing their faith, Jesus said to the paralytic, c“Take courage, ▼▼ Lit child
son; eyour sins are forgiven.” 3And some of the scribes said ▼▼ Lit among
to themselves, “This fellow gblasphemes.” 4And Jesus hknowing their thoughts said, “Why are you thinking evil in your hearts? 5“Which is easier, to say, ‘ iYour sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up, and walk’? 6“But so that you may know that jthe Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”— then He said to the kparalytic, “Get up, pick up your bed and go home.” 7And he got up and ▼▼ Or departed
went home. 8But when the crowds saw this, they were ▼▼ Lit afraid
awestruck, and nglorified God, who had given such authority to men.
