Matthew 9:2-8

2 ¹And they brought to Him a ²paralytic lying on a bed. Seeing their faith, Jesus said to the paralytic, "³Take courage, son; ⁴your sins are forgiven."

3 And some of the scribes said to themselves, "This fellow ⁵blasphemes."

4 And Jesus ⁶knowing their thoughts said, "Why are you thinking evil in your hearts?

5 "Which is easier, to say, '⁷Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, 'Get up, and walk '?

6 "But so that you may know that ⁸the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins "-then He said to the ⁹paralytic, "Get up, pick up your bed and go home."

7 And he got up and went home.

8 But when the crowds saw this, they were awestruck, and ¹⁰glorified God, who had given such authority to men.
