Mark 2:1-12

RHE

NIV

1 And again he entered into Capharnaum after some days.
1 A few days later, when Jesus again entered Capernaum, the people heard that he had come home.
2 And it was heard that he was in the house. And many came together, so that there was no room: no, not even at the door. And he spoke to them the word.
2 They gathered in such large numbers that there was no room left, not even outside the door, and he preached the word to them.
3 And they came to him, bringing one sick of the palsy, who was carried by four.
3 Some men came, bringing to him a paralyzed man, carried by four of them.
4 And when they could not offer him unto him for the multitude, they uncovered the roof where he was: and opening it, they let down the bed wherein the man sick of the palsy lay.
4 Since they could not get him to Jesus because of the crowd, they made an opening in the roof above Jesus by digging through it and then lowered the mat the man was lying on.
5 And when Jesus had seen their faith, he saith to the sick of the palsy: Son, thy sins are forgiven thee.
5 When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralyzed man, “Son, your sins are forgiven.”
6 And there were some of the scribes sitting there and thinking in their hearts:
6 Now some teachers of the law were sitting there, thinking to themselves,
7 Why doth this man speak thus? He blasphemeth. Who can forgive sins, but God only?
7 “Why does this fellow talk like that? He’s blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone?”
8 Which Jesus presently knowing in his spirit that they so thought within themselves, saith to them: Why think you these things in your hearts?
8 Immediately Jesus knew in his spirit that this was what they were thinking in their hearts, and he said to them, “Why are you thinking these things?
9 Which is easier, to say to the sick of the palsy: Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say: Arise, take up thy bed and walk?
9 Which is easier: to say to this paralyzed man, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up, take your mat and walk’?
10 But that you may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins (he saith to the sick of the palsy):
10 But I want you to know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins.” So he said to the man,
11 I say to thee: Arise. Take up thy bed and go into thy house.
11 “I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home.”
12 And immediately he arose and, taking up his bed, went his way in the sight of all: so that all wondered and glorified God, saying: We never saw the like.
12 He got up, took his mat and walked out in full view of them all. This amazed everyone and they praised God, saying, “We have never seen anything like this!”
