⁹ Which is the simpler, to say to a man who is ill, You have forgiveness for your sins, or, Get up, take up your bed, and go?

⁵ For which is the simpler, to say, You have forgiveness for your sins; or to say, Get up and go?

²² But Jesus, who had knowledge of their thoughts, said to them, Why are you reasoning in your hearts?

²³ Which is the simpler: to say, You have forgiveness for your sins; or to say, Get up and go?

²⁴ But so that you may see that on earth the Son of man has authority for the forgiveness of sins, (he said to the man who was ill,) I say to you, Get up, and take up your bed, and go into your house.

²⁵ And straight away he got up before them, and took up his bed and went away to his house giving praise to God.
