Mark 2:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 And anon many gathered together, insomuch, that the [a]places about the door could not receive any more: and he preached the word unto them.
3 And there came unto him, that brought one sick of the palsy, borne of four men.
4 And because they could not come near unto him for the multitude, they uncovered the roof of the house where he was: and when they had broken it open, they [b]let down the [c]bed, wherein the sick of the palsy lay.
