Matthew 9:1-3

GOD’S WORD Translation

Jesus Forgives Sins^(A)

9 Jesus got into a boat, crossed the sea, and came to his own city. ² Some people brought him a paralyzed man on a stretcher.

When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the man, “Cheer up, friend! Your sins are forgiven.”

³ Then some of the experts in Moses’ Teachings thought, “He’s dishonoring God.”
