7Why doeth this man thus speake blasphemies? Who can forgiue sinnes but God onely? 8And immediatly, when Iesus perceiued in his Spirit, that they so reasoned within themselues, he said vnto them, Why reason ye these things in your hearts? 9Whether is it easier to say to the sicke of the palsie, Thy sinnes be forgiuen thee: or to say, Arise, and take vp thy bed and walke? 10But that yee may know that the Sonne of man hath power on earth to forgiue sinnes, (Hee saith to the sicke of the palsie,) 11I say vnto thee, Arise, & take vp thy bed, & goe thy way into thine house.
