18 And, behold, brought in a bed, a girl taken with a palsy: and they sought means to bring her in, and to lay her before him.
19 And when they could not find by what way they might bring her in because of the multitude, they went upon the housetop, and let her down through the tiling with her bed into the midst before Jesus.
20 And when he saw their faith, he said, thy sins are forgiven thee.
21 And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this which speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone?
22 But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answering said unto them, What reason ye in your hearts?
23 Whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Rise up and walk?
24 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power upon earth to forgive sins, (he said unto the sick of the palsy,) I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy couch, and go into thine house.
25 But she did not and could not rise, for she was still ill stricken, and Jesus turned himself and left the dwelling.
