Matthew 9:2-8
2 (A)And they brought to Him a (B)paralytic lying on a bed. Seeing their faith, Jesus said to the paralytic, “(C)Take courage, (a)son; (D)your sins are forgiven.”
3 And some of the scribes said (b)to themselves, “This fellow (E)blasphemes.”
4 And Jesus (F)knowing their thoughts said, “Why are you thinking evil in your hearts?
5 Which is easier, to say, ‘(G)Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up, and walk’?
6 But so that you may know that (H)the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”—then He *said to the (I)paralytic, “Get up, pick up your bed and go home.”
7 And he got up and (c)went home.
8 But when the crowds saw this, they were (d)awestruck, and (J)glorified God, who had given such authority to men.
