Matthew 9:5


← Matthew 9:4 [words of Jesus] Matthew 9:5 (KJV) [words of Jesus] Matthew 9:6 [words of Jesus] →
And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?
For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk?
But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house.
