Marcos 2

3 And there came to him men that brought a man sick in the palsy, which was borne of four. [And there came to him men bringing or bearing a sick man in palsy, the which was borne of four men.]

4 And when they might not bring him to Jesus for the people, they uncovered the roof where he was, and opened it, and they let down the bed in which the sick man in palsy lay.

5 And when Jesus had seen the faith of them, he said to the sick man in palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven to thee.

6 But there were some of the scribes sitting, and thinking in their hearts,

7 What speaketh he thus? He blasphemeth; who may forgive sins, but God alone?

8 And [anon] when Jesus had known this by the Holy Ghost, that they thought so within themselves, he saith to them, What think ye these things in your hearts?

9 What is lighter to say to the sick man in palsy, Sins be forgiven to thee, or to say, Rise, take thy bed, and walk?

10 But that ye know that man’s Son hath power in earth to forgive sins, he said to the sick man in palsy,

11 I say to thee, rise up, take thy bed, and go into thine house.

12 And anon he rose up, and when he had taken the bed, he went before all men, so that all men wondered, and honoured God, and said, For we saw never so.
