Luke 5:20-24
New King James Version
20 When He saw their faith, He said to him, “Man, your sins are forgiven you.”
21 (A)And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, “Who is this who speaks blasphemies? (B)Who can forgive sins but God alone?”
22 But when Jesus (C)perceived their thoughts, He answered and said to them, “Why are you reasoning in your hearts? 23 Which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Rise up and walk’? 24 But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins”—He said to the man who was paralyzed, (D)“I say to you, arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.”

Luke 5:20-24
New International Version
20 When Jesus saw their faith, he said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.”(A)
21 The Pharisees and the teachers of the law began thinking to themselves, “Who is this fellow who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”(B)
22 Jesus knew what they were thinking and asked, “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts? 23 Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’? 24 But I want you to know that the Son of Man(C) has authority on earth to forgive sins.” So he said to the paralyzed man, “I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home.”
