Luke 5:22-32

22 And as Jesus knew the thoughts of them, he answered, and said to them [he answering said to them], What think ye evil things in your hearts?
23 What is lighter to say, Sins be forgiven to thee, or to say, Rise up, and walk?
24 But that ye know, that man's Son hath power in earth to forgive sins, he said to the sick man in palsy, I say to thee, rise up, take thy bed, and go into thine house.
25 And at once [And anon] he rose up before them, and took the bed in which he lay, and went into his house, and magnified God [magnifying God].
26 And great wonder took all, and they magnified God; and they were full-filled with great dread, and said [+and were filled with great dread, saying], For we have seen marvelous things to day.
27 And after these things Jesus went out, and saw a publican, Levi by name, sitting at the tollbooth. And he said to him, Follow thou me;
28 and when he had left all things, he rose up, and followed him.
29 And Levi made to him a great feast in his house; and there was a great company of publicans, and of others that were with them, sitting at the meat.
30 And the Pharisees and the scribes of them grumbled, and said to his disciples [And Pharisees and the scribes of them grutched, saying to his disciples], Why eat ye and drink with publicans and sinful men?
31 And Jesus answered, and said to them, They that be whole have no need to a physician, but they that be sick; [And Jesus answering saith to them, They that be whole have not need to a leech, but they that have evil;]
32 for I came not to call just men, but sinful men to penance.
