Mark 2:7-9

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁷ Why doth this man speak thus? he blasphemeth. Who can forgive sins, but God only?

⁸ Which Jesus presently knowing in his spirit, that they so thought within themselves, saith to them: Why think you these things in your hearts?

⁹ Which is easier, to say to the sick of the palsy: Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say: Arise, take up thy bed, and walk?
