Mark 2:3-11 and they come, bearing unto him a paralytic, upborne by four,–

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ and they come, bearing unto him a paralytic, upborne by four,–– ⁴ and, not being able to get near him by reason of the multitude, they uncovered the roof where he was, and, having broken it up, they began letting down the couch whereon the paralytic was lying; ⁵ and, Jesus, seeing their faith, saith unto the paralytic––Child! forgiven are thy sins! ⁶ Now there were certain of the Scribes there, sitting and deliberating in their hearts,–– ⁷ Why doth, this, man thus talk? he is speaking profanely! Who can forgive sins, save one, God? ⁸ And Jesus, straightway, taking note in his spirit, that [thus] they are deliberating within themselves, saith [unto them]––Why, these things, are ye deliberating in your hearts? ⁹ Which is easier––to say unto the paralytic, Forgiven are thy sins, or to say, Rise, [and] take up thy couch, and be walking? ¹⁰ But, that ye may know that the Son of Man hath authority to be forgiving sins upon the earth, he saith to the paralytic: ¹¹ To thee, I say, Rise, take up thy couch, and be going thy way unto thy house.
