Matthew 9

1  And he entered into a boat, and crossed over, and came into his own city.

2  And behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, be of good cheer; thy sins are forgiven.

3  And behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth.

4  And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?

5  For which is easier, to say, Thy sins are forgiven; or to say, Arise, and walk?

6  But that ye may know that the Son of man hath authority on earth to forgive sins (then saith he to the sick of the palsy), Arise, and take up thy bed, and go up unto thy house.

7  And he arose, and departed to his house.

8  But when the multitudes saw it, they were afraid, and glorified God, who had given such authority unto men.

9  And as Jesus passed by from thence, he saw a man, called Matthew, sitting at the place of toll: and he saith unto him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him.

10  And it came to pass, as he sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with Jesus and his disciples.
