Luke 5:23-25 Which is easier, to say 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say 'Get up and start walking'?

Williams⁽ⁱ⁾ ²³ Which is easier, to say 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say 'Get up and start walking'? ²⁴ But to show you that the Son of Man has authority to forgive sins on earth" -- turning to the man who was paralyzed, He said to him, "Get up, pick up your pallet, and go home." ²⁵ Then at once he got up before them all, picked up the pallet on which he had been lying, and went off home, giving praise to God.
