1 A few days later, Jesus came back to Capernaum. The news spread that he was back home.
2 A large crowd gathered to hear him speak. The house was so full that there was no place to stand, not even outside the door. While Jesus was teaching,
3 some people brought a paralyzed man to see him. He was being carried by four of them.
4 But they could not get the man inside to Jesus because the house was so full of people. So they went to the roof above Jesus and made a hole in it. Then they lowered the mat with the paralyzed man on it.
