Mark 2:3
& And they *came, bringing to Him a paralytic, carried by four men.
Mark 2:4
& Being unable to get to Him because of the crowd, they removed the roof above Him; and when they had dug an opening, they let down the pallet on which the paralytic was lying.
Mark 2:5
& And Jesus seeing their faith *said to the paralytic, "(Lit {child}) Son, your sins are forgiven."
Mark 2:6
& But some of the scribes were sitting there and reasoning in their hearts,
Mark 2:7
& "Why does this man speak that way? He is blaspheming; who can forgive sins but God alone?"
Mark 2:8
& Immediately Jesus, aware in His spirit that they were reasoning that way within themselves, *said to them, "Why are you reasoning about these things in your hearts?
Mark 2:9
& ~"Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, `Your sins are forgiven'; or to say, `Get up, and pick up your pallet and walk'?
Mark 2:10

Mark 2:11
& "I say to you, get up, pick up your pallet and go home."
