19 Como não acharam por onde pudessem levá-lo para dentro, por causa da multidão, subiram ao telhado, e pelas telhas o baixaram com o leito para o meio [do povo] , diante de Jesus.
20 Ele viu a fé deles, e disse-lhe: Homem, teus pecados são perdoados.
21 E os escribas e os fariseus começaram a questionar, dizendo: Quem é este que fala blasfêmias? Quem pode perdoar pecados, senão só Deus?
