Mk 2:1: And again he entered into Capernaum after some days; and it was noised that he was in the house.

Mk 2:2: And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive them, no, not so much as about the door: and he preached the word unto them.

Mk 2:3: And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four.

Mk 2:4: And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.

Mk 2:5: When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee.

Mk 2:6: But there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts,

Mk 2:7: Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only?

Mk 2:8: And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he said unto them, Why reason ye these things in your hearts?

Mk 2:9: Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk?

Mk 2:10: But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy,)

Mk 2:11: I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine house.

Mk 2:12: And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion.
