Luke 5:18 in Context — Luke 5

16 Mas él se apartaba á los desiertos, y oraba.

17 Y aconteció un día, que él estaba enseñando, y los Fariseos y doctores de la ley estaban sentados, los cuales habían venido de todas las aldeas de Galilea, y de Judea y Jerusalem: y la virtud del Señor estaba [allí] para sanarlos.

18 Y he aquí unos hombres, que traían sobre un lecho un hombre que estaba paralítico; y buscaban meterle, y ponerle delante de él.

19 Y no hallando por donde meterle á causa de la multitud, subieron encima de la casa, y por el tejado le bajaron con el lecho en medio, delante de Jesús;

20 El cual, viendo la fe de ellos, le dice: Hombre, tus pecados te son perdonados.
