Matthew 9:2-8

CAB(i) 2 And behold, they were carrying a paralytic to Him lying on a bed. And when Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, "Have courage, child; your sins are forgiven you." 3 And at once some of the scribes said among themselves, "This Man blasphemes!" 4 But Jesus, perceiving their thoughts, said, "Why do you think evil in your hearts? 5 For which is easier, to say, 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, 'Arise and walk'? 6 But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on the earth to forgive sins"--then He said to the paralytic, "Arise, take up your bed, and go to your house." 7 And having arisen, he went off to his house. 8 Now when the crowds saw, they marveled and glorified God, who had given such authority to men.
