Matins Gospel
Stand in the fear of God and listen to the Holy Gospel.
A reading from the Gospel according to our teacher Saint Matthew the Evangelist.
May His Blessings be with us all.
Matthew 9 : 1 - 8
Chapter 9
| 1 | So He got into a boat, crossed over, and came to His own city.
|
| 2 | Then behold, they brought to Him a paralytic lying on a bed. When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, "Son, be of good cheer; your sins are forgiven you."
|
| 3 | And at once some of the scribes said within themselves, "This Man blasphemes!"
|
| 4 | But Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, "Why do you think evil in your hearts?
|
| 5 | For which is easier, to say, "Your sins are forgiven you,' or to say, "Arise and walk'?
|
| 6 | But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins"--then He said to the paralytic, "Arise, take up your bed, and go to your house."
|
| 7 | And he arose and departed to his house.
|
| 8 | Now when the multitudes saw it, they marveled and glorified God, who had given such power to men.
|
And Glory be to God forever.
