Luke 5:21-26

21And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, “Who is this who speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

22But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, He answered and said to them, “Why are you reasoning in your hearts?

23Which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Rise up and walk’?

24But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins”—He said to the man who was paralyzed, “I say to you, arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.”

25Immediately he rose up before them, took up what he had been lying on, and departed to his own house, glorifying God.

26And they were all amazed, and they glorified God and were filled with fear, saying, “We have seen strange things today!”
