OET (OET-LV) To_you I_am_saying, be_raising, take_up the pallet of_you, and be_going to the home of_you.
In this section, some people brought a paralyzed man to Jesus. They hoped that Jesus would heal him. First, Jesus told the man that his sins were forgiven. Then Jesus proved that God had given him authority to both heal and forgive sins by healing the paralyzed man.
When Jesus said, “your sins,” he was referring to the sins that the man had done in his life. He was not implying that the man had offended him personally. The Jews thought that only God could forgive all of the sins that a person had done. They were offended that Jesus also claimed to have that authority.
You should translate this section before you decide on a heading for it.
Here are some other possible headings for this section:
Jesus showed that he has authority to forgive people’s sins
Jesus healed a paralyzed man
There are parallel passages for this section in Matthew 9:1–8 and Luke 5:17–26.
In this section the teachers of the law reacted to Jesus’ statement that the sins of the paralytic were forgiven. They thought that Jesus was an ordinary person who could not be the Messiah.
“I tell you, get up, pick up your mat, and go home.”
“Listen(sing) to me. Stand up, pick up your(sing) mat, and go to your house.”
“I am healing you. Stand(sing) to your feet, pick up your(sing) mat, and return to your home.”
rise to his feet, pick up his mat, and walk home.
I tell you: The pronoun you is singular and refers to the paralytic. The phrase I tell you emphasizes that Jesus was now speaking to the paralyzed man.

2:1-12 This controversy story is also a miracle story, which links it to the previous collection (1:21-45).
