In context
5 And when Jesus had seen their faith, he saith to the sick of the palsy: Son, thy sins are forgiven thee.
6 And there were some of the scribes sitting there and thinking in their hearts:
7 Why doth this man speak thus? He blasphemeth. Who can forgive sins, but God only?
8 Which Jesus presently knowing in his spirit that they so thought within themselves, saith to them: Why think you these things in your hearts?
9 Which is easier, to say to the sick of the palsy: Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say: Arise, take up thy bed and walk?
10 But that you may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins (he saith to the sick of the palsy):
11 I say to thee: Arise. Take up thy bed and go into thy house.
