The palsied man let down through the roof

Saint Mark - Chapter 2

The palsied man. J-J Tissot

[1] Et iterum intravit Capharnaum post dies,
And again he entered into Capharnaum after some days.

[2] et auditum est quod in domo esset, et convenerunt multi, ita ut non caperet neque ad januam, et loquebatur eis verbum.
And it was heard that he was in the house, and many came together, so that there was no room; no, not even at the door; and he spoke to them the word.

[3] Et venerunt ad eum ferentes paralyticum, qui a quatuor portabatur.
And they came to him, bringing one sick of the palsy, who was carried by four.

[4] Et cum non possent offerre eum illi prae turba, nudaverunt tectum ubi erat : et patefacientes submiserunt grabatum in quo paralyticus jacebat.
And when they could not offer him unto him for the multitude, they uncovered the roof where he was; and opening it, they let down the bed wherein the man sick of the palsy lay.

[5] Cum autem vidisset Jesus fidem illorum, ait paralytico : Fili, dimittuntur tibi peccata tua.
And when Jesus had seen their faith, he saith to the sick of the palsy: Son, thy sins are forgiven thee.

[6] Erant autem illic quidam de scribis sedentes, et cogitantes in cordibus suis :
And there were some of the scribes sitting there, and thinking in their hearts:

[7] Quid hic sic loquitur? blasphemat. Quis potest dimittere peccata, nisi solus Deus?
Why doth this man speak thus? he blasphemeth. Who can forgive sins, but God only?

[8] Quo statim cognito Jesus spiritu suo, quia sic cogitarent intra se, dicit illis : Quid ista cogitatis in cordibus vestris?
Which Jesus presently knowing in his spirit, that they so thought within themselves, saith to them: Why think you these things in your hearts?

[9] Quid est facilius dicere paralytico : Dimittuntur tibi peccata tua : an dicere : Surge, tolle grabatum tuum, et ambula?
Which is easier, to say to the sick of the palsy: Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say: Arise, take up thy bed, and walk?

[10] Ut autem sciatis quia Filius hominis habet potestatem in terra dimittendi peccata ( ait paralytico),
But that you may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy,)

[11] tibi dico : Surge, tolle grabatum tuum, et vade in domum tuam.
I say to thee: Arise, take up thy bed, and go into thy house.

[12] Et statim surrexit ille : et, sublato grabato, abiit coram omnibus, ita ut mirarentur omnes, et honorificent Deum, dicentes : Quia numquam sic vidimus.
And immediately he arose; and taking up his bed, went his way in the sight of all; so that all wondered and glorified God, saying: We never saw the like.

Totus tuus ego sum 

Et omnia mea tua sunt;

Tecum semper tutus sum:
Ad Jesum per Mariam
