Matthew 9:2-9

21And they broughtG4374 to Him a 2paralyticG3885 lyingG906 on a bedG2825. SeeingG3708 their faithG4102, JesusG2424 saidG3004 to the paralyticG3885, “3TakeG2293 courageG2293, 4sonG5043; 5your sinsG266 are forgivenG863.” 3And someG5100 of the scribesG1122 saidG3004 6to themselvesG1438, “ThisG3778 fellow 7blasphemesG987.” 4And JesusG2424 8knowingG3609 their thoughtsG1761 saidG3004, “WhyG2444 are you thinkingG1760 evilG4190 in your heartsG2588? 5WhichG5101 is easierG2123, to sayG3004, ‘9Your sinsG266 are forgivenG863,’ orG2228 to sayG3004, ‘GetG1453 up, and walkG4043’? 6But soG2443 that you may knowG3609 that 10the SonG5207 of ManG444 hasG2192 authorityG1849 on earthG1093 to forgiveG863 sinsG266”--thenG5119 He saidG3004 to the 11paralyticG3885, “GetG1453 up, pickG142 up your bedG2825 and goG5217 homeG3624.” 7And he gotG1453 up and 12wentG565 homeG3624. 8But when the crowdsG3793 sawG3708 this, they were 13awestruckG5399, and 14glorifiedG1392 GodG2316, who had givenG1325 suchG5108 authorityG1849 to menG444.

915As JesusG2424 wentG3855 on from thereG1564, He sawG3708 a manG444 calledG3004 16MatthewG3102, sittingG2521 in the taxG5058 collector’sG5058 boothG5058; and He saidG3004 to him, “17FollowG190 Me!” And he gotG450 up and followedG190 Him.
