Matthew 9:2-6

New American Standard Bible

^2 (A)And they brought to Him a ^(B)paralyzed man lying on a stretcher. And seeing their faith, Jesus said to the man who was paralyzed, “^(C)Take courage, ^[a]son; ^(D)your sins are forgiven.” ³ And some of the scribes said ^[b]to themselves, “This man is ^(E)blaspheming!” ⁴ And Jesus, ^(F)perceiving their thoughts, said, “Why are you thinking evil in your hearts? ⁵ For which is easier, to say, ‘^(G)Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’? ⁶ But so that you may know that ^(H)the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”—then He *said to the ^(I)paralyzed man, “Get up, pick up your stretcher and go home.”
