Mark 2:3-5

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

³ Then some people^[a] came, bringing to him a paralysed man, carried by four of them. ⁴ And when they could not bring him to Jesus because of the crowd, they removed the roof above him; and after having dug through it, they let down the mat on which the paralytic lay. ⁵ When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, ‘Son, your sins are forgiven.’
