NASB — Mark 2 — KJV

The Paralytic Healed

1 When He had come° back° to Capernaum° several days° afterward°, it was heard° that He was at home°. 2 And amany° were gathered° together°, so° that there was no° longer° room°, not even° near° the door°; and He was speaking° the word° to them. 3 aAnd they *came°, bringing° to Him a bparalytic°, carried° by four° men°. 4 Being unable°° to Iget° to Him because° of the crowd°, they aremoved° the roof° IIabove° Him; and when they had dug° an opening, they let° down° the pallet° on which° the bparalytic° was lying°. 5 And Jesus° seeing° their faith° *said° to the paralytic°, ISon°, ayour sins° are forgiven°.” 6 But some° of the scribes° were sitting° there° and reasoning° in their hearts°, 7 “Why° does this° man° speak° that way°? He is blaspheming°; awho° can° forgive° sins° Ibut God° alone°?” 8 Immediately° Jesus°, aware° Iin His spirit° that they were reasoning° that way° within° themselves°, *said° to them, “Why° are you reasoning° about these° things° in your hearts°? 9 Which° is easier°, to say° to the aparalytic°, ‘Your sins° are forgiven°’; or° to say°, ‘Get° up, and pick° up your pallet° and walk°’? 10 But so° that you may know° that the Son° of Man° has° authority° on earth° to forgive° sins°—He *said° to the paralytic°, 11 “I say° to you, get° up, pick° up your pallet° and go° home°.” 12 And he got° up and immediately° picked° up the pallet° and went° out in the sight° of everyone°, so° that they were all° amazed° and awere glorifying° God°, saying°, “bWe have never° seen° anything like° this°.”

Christ healeth one sick of the palsy:

1 ¶ Andº againº he enteredºª intoº Capernaumº afterº [some] days;º andº it was noisedºª thatº he wasºª inº the house.º 2 Andº straightwayº manyº were gathered together,ºª insomuch thatº there was¹ª no¹ room to receiveºª² [them], no, not so much¹ as² aboutº the² door:º andº he preachedºª the² wordº unto them.º 3 Andº they comeºª untoº him,º bringingºª one sick of the palsy,º which was borneºª ofº four.º 4 Andº when they couldºª notº come nighºª unto himº forº the² press,º they uncoveredºª the² roofº whereº he was:ºª andº when they had broken [it] up,ºª they let downºª the² bedº whereinºº the² sick of the palsyº lay.ºª 5 Whenº Jesusº sawºª theirº faith,º he saidºª unto the² sick of the palsy,º Son,º thyº sinsº be forgivenºª thee.º 6 Butº there wereºª certainº of the² scribesº sittingºª there,º andº reasoningºª inº their¹² hearts,º 7 Whyº doth¹ª thisº [man] thusº speakºª blasphemies?º whoº canºª forgiveºª sinsº butº Godº only?º 8 Andº immediatelyº when Jesusº perceivedºª in his¹² spiritº thatº they soº reasonedºª withinº themselves,º he saidºª unto them,º Whyº reason² ye¹ª these thingsº inº yourº hearts?º 9 Whetherº is² it¹ª easierº to sayºª to the² sick of the palsy,º [Thy] sinsº be forgivenºª thee;º orº to say,ºª Arise,ºª andº take upºª thyº bed,º andº walk?ºª 10 Butº thatº ye may knowºª thatº the² Sonº of manº hathºª powerº onº earthº to forgiveºª sins,º (he saithºª to the² sick of the palsy,)º 11 I sayºª unto thee,º Arise,ºª andº take upºª thyº bed,º andº go thy wayºª intoº thineº house.º 12 Andº immediatelyº he arose,ºª took upºª the² bed,º andº went forthºª beforeº them all;º insomuch thatº they were¹ª allº amazed,ºª andº glorifiedºª God,º saying,ºª¹ We¹ª never¹² sawºª it on this fashion.º 13 Andº he went forthºª againº byº the² sea side;º andº allº the² multitudeº resortedºª untoº him,º andº he taughtºª them.º
