23 Which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Rise up and walk’?
24 But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins”—He said to the man who was paralyzed, a“I say to you, arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.”
25 Immediately he rose up before them, took up what he had been lying on, and departed to his own house, aglorifying God.
26 And they were all amazed, and they aglorified God and were filled with fear, saying, “We have seen strange things today!”
Matthew the Tax Collector
27 aAfter these things He went out and saw a tax collector named Levi, sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, b“Follow Me.”
28 So he left all, rose up, and afollowed Him.
29 aThen Levi gave Him a great feast in his own house. And bthere were a great number of tax collectors and others who sat down with them.
