2 And lo! thei brouyten to hym a man sike in palesie, liggynge in a bed. And Jhesus saw the feith of hem, and seide to the man sike in palesye, Sone, haue thou trist; thi synnes ben foryouun to thee.

3 And lo! summe of the scribis seiden withynne hem silf, This blasfemeth.

4 And whanne Jhesus hadde seyn her thouytis, he seide, Wherto thenken ye yuele thingis in youre hertis?

5 What is liytere to seye, Thi synnes ben foryouun to thee, ethir to seie, Rise thou, and walke?

6 But that ye wite that mannus sone hath power to foryyue synnes in erthe, thanne he seide to the sijk man in palesie, Rise vp; take thi bed, and go in to thin hous.

7 And he roos, and wente in to his hous.
