Mark 2:7 WBT

⁵  When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the sick with the palsy, Son, thy sins are forgiven thee.

⁶  But there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts,

⁷  Why doth this [man] thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only?

⁸  And immediately, when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he said to them, Why reason ye these things in your hearts?

⁹  Which is easier, to say to the sick with the palsy, [Thy] sins are forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk?
