- The scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, "Who is this man who speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone?"
- But Jesus, aware of their reasonings, answered and said to them, "Why are you reasoning in your hearts?
- "Which is easier, to say, 'Your sins have been forgiven you,' or to say, 'Get up and walk'?
- "But, so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins,"--He said to the paralytic--"I say to you, get up, and pick up your stretcher and go home."
- Immediately he got up before them, and picked up what he had been lying on, and went home glorifying God.
