And beholde certeyne of ye scribes sayd in the selves this ma blasphemeth.
4
And whe Iesus sawe their thoughtes he sayd: wherfore thinke ye evill in youre hertes?
5
Whether ys esyer to saye thy synnes be forgeven ye or to saye: arise and walke?
6
That ye maye knowe that ye sonne of ma hath power to forgeve sinnes in erth then sayd he vnto ye sicke of ye palsye: arise take vp thy beed and go home to thine housse.
8

And as Iesus passed forth fro thence he sawe a ma syt a receyuinge of custome named Mathew and sayd to him: folowe me.
10
And he arose and folowed him. And it came to passe as he sat at meate in the housse: beholde many publicans and synners came and sate downe also with Iesus and hys disciples.
11
When the Pharises sawe that they sayd to hys disciples: why eateth youre master wt publicans and synners?
12
When Iesus herde that he sayde vnto them: The whole neade not the phisicion but they that are sicke.
13
Goo and learne what that meaneth: I have pleasure in mercy and not in offerynge. For I am not come to call the rightewes but the synners to repentaunce.
