[2] And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; sins be forgiven [3] And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth. [4] And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, think evil in hearts? [5] For whether easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven or to say, Arise, and walk? [6] But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up bed, and go unto house.
