18 And lo! men bearing, upon a couch, one who was paralyzed, and they were seeking to bring him in, and lay him before him.
19 And, not finding by what means they might bring him in, because of the multitude, going up on the house-top, through the tiling, let they him down, with the little-couch, into the midst before Jesus.
20 And, beholding their faith, he said—O man! thy sins are forgiven thee.
21 And the Scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying—Who is this that speaketh profanities? Who can forgive, sins, save, God alone?
22 And Jesus, taking note of their reasonings, answering, said unto them—Why are ye reasoning in your hearts?
23 Which is easier, To say—Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say—Arise and be walking?
24 But, that ye may know that, the Son of Man, hath, authority, upon the earth to forgive sins—he said to the paralyzed man—To thee, I say, Arise, and, taking up thy couch, be going thy way unto thy house.
