Luke 5:16-18

New Century Version

¹⁶ but Jesus often slipped away to be alone so he could pray.

Jesus Heals a Paralyzed Man

¹⁷ One day as Jesus was teaching the people, the Pharisees and teachers of the law from every town in Galilee and Judea and from Jerusalem were there. The Lord was giving Jesus the power to heal people. ¹⁸ Just then, some men were carrying on a mat a man who was paralyzed. They tried to bring him in and put him down before Jesus.
