Luke 5:20-24

20And seeing their faith, he said, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.

21And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason [in their minds], saying, Who is this who speaks blasphemies? Who is able to forgive sins but 1God alone?

22But Jesus, knowing their reasonings, answering said to them, Why reason ye in your hearts?

23which is easier, to say, Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say, Rise up and walk?

24But that ye may know that the Son of man has power on earth to forgive sins, he said to the paralysed man, I say to thee, Arise, and take up thy little couch and go to thine house.
