And behauld! they war bringin till him a man doon wiʼ a stroke, lyin on a couch: and Jesus, seein their aefauldness says tae the man, “Bairn, be oʼ gude heart; yere sins are forgien ye!”
But Jesus, seein that mony folk war comin, rinnin thegither, challenged the foul spirit, sayin tillʼt, “Ye dumb and deif spirit! I command ye, come oot oʼ him; and come nae mair intil him!”
And whan the sun was settin aʼ the folk, as mony as had sick anes wiʼ ony kind oʼ illness, brocht them till him, and he laid hauns on them, and healed them.
And the demons too war gaun forth oʼ mony — cryin oot and sayin, “Ye are the Son oʼ God!” And he rebukit them; and allowʼt‐them‐na to speak; for they kent he was the Messiah.
Sae muckle, that they eʼen cairryʼt oot the sick folk till the causey, and pat them doon on beds and couches, that (gin nae mair), the shadow oʼ Peter, as he cam by, micht faʼ on a wheen oʼ them!
