5:21  And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this that speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone?

5:22  But Jesus perceiving their reasonings, answered and said unto them1, Why reason ye in your hearts?

5:23  Which is easier, to say, Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say1, Arise and walk?

5:24  But that ye may know that the Son of man hath authority on earth to forgive sins (he said unto him that was palsied)1, I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy couch, and go unto thy house.

5:25  And immediately he rose up before them, and took up that whereon he lay1, and departed to his house, glorifying God.

5:26  And amazement took hold on all, and they glorified God1; and they were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things to-day2.

5:27  And after these things1 he went forth, and beheld a publican2, named Levi, sitting at the place of toll, and said unto him, Follow me3.

5:28  And he forsook all, and rose up and followed him1.

5:29  And Levi1 made him a great feast in his house: and there was a great multitude of publicans and of others2 that were sitting at meat with them.

5:30  And the Pharisees and their scribes murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with the publicans and sinners?

5:31  And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are in health have no need of a physician; but they that are sick1.

5:32  I am not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance1.

5:33  And they said unto him, The disciples of John fast often, and make supplications; likewise also the [disciples] of the Pharisees; but thine eat and drink.

5:34  And Jesus said unto them, Can ye make the sons of the bride-chamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them1?

5:35  But the days will come1; and when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, then will they fast in those days.

5:36  And he spake also a parable unto them: No man rendeth a piece from a new garment and putteth it upon an old garment1; else he will rend the new, and also the piece from the new will not agree with the old.

5:37  And no man putteth new wine into old wine-skins1; else the new wine will burst the skins, and itself will be spilled, and the skins will perish.

5:39  And no man having drunk old [wine] desireth new; for he saith, The old is good1.
