Isaiah 53:4-6
English Standard Version
4 (A)Surely he has borne our griefs
and carried our sorrows;
yet we esteemed him stricken,
(B)smitten by God, and afflicted.
5 (C)But he was pierced for our transgressions;
he was crushed for our iniquities;
upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace,
(D)and with his wounds we are healed.
6 (E)All we like sheep have gone astray;
we have turned—every one—to his own way;
(F)and the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.
Matthew 9:2-8
English Standard Version
2 (A)And behold, some people brought to him a paralytic, lying on a bed. And when Jesus (B)saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, (C)“Take heart, my son; (D)your sins are forgiven.” 3 And behold, some of the scribes said to themselves, (E)“This man is blaspheming.” 4 But Jesus, (F)knowing[a] their thoughts, said, “Why do you think evil in your hearts? 5 For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Rise and walk’? 6 But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”—he then said to the paralytic—“Rise, pick up your bed and go home.” 7 And he rose and went home. 8 When the crowds saw it, (G)they were afraid, and (H)they glorified God, who had (I)given such authority to men.
