1And having entered again into Capernaum after some days, it was heard that he was in a house.2And they were assembled in such numbers that there was no longer room, not even toward the door, and he was speaking the word to them.3And they came bringing to him a paralytic carried by four men.4And not being able to bring the man to him through the crowd, they unroofed the roof where he was, and having dug through they let down the bed where the paralytic was reclining.5And having seen, Jesus the faith of them says to the paralytic, Child, your sins are released.6There were then some of the scribes there sitting and discussing in the hearts of them.7Why does this one speak thus? He blasphemes. Who is able to release sins except one, God?8And straight having come to know in his spirit that they thus discuss in themselves, Jesus says to them, Why do you discuss these things in your hearts?9Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, Your sins are released, or to say, Arise and take up your bed and walk?10But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to release sins—he says to the paralytic—11To you I say, Arise, take up your bed and go toward your house.12And he arose, and immediately took up the bed and went out before all, so that all were amazed and glorified God, saying, "We never saw anything like this."
