Jesus Heals a Paralytic
9 And getting into a boat, Jesus crossed over the sea and came to (A)His own city.
2 (B)And behold, they brought to Him a (C)paralytic lying on a bed. Seeing their faith, Jesus said to the paralytic, “(D)Take courage, [a]son; (E)your sins are forgiven.” 3 And behold, some of the scribes said [b]to themselves, “This man (F)blasphemes.” 4 And Jesus (G)knowing their thoughts said, “Why are you thinking evil in your hearts? 5 For which is easier, to say, ‘(H)Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’? 6 But so that you may know that (I)the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”—then He *said to the (J)paralytic, “Get up, pick up your bed and go home.” 7 And he got up and [c]went home. 8 But when the crowds saw this, they were afraid, and (K)glorified God, who had given such authority to men.
