Matthew 9:1-6

New Revised Standard NRS

1 And after getting into a boat he crossed the sea and came to his own town.

2 And just then some people were carrying a paralyzed man lying on a bed. When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, "Take heart, son; your sins are forgiven."

3 Then some of the scribes said to themselves, "This man is blaspheming."

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, "Stand up and walk'?

6 But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins"—he then said to the paralytic—"Stand up, take your bed and go to your home."

3 At this, some of the teachers of the law said to themselves, “This fellow is blaspheming!”
