One day He was teaching; and there were some Pharisees and teachers of the law sitting there, who had come from every village of Galilee and Judea and from Jerusalem; and the power of the Lord was present for Him to perform healing. And some men were carrying on a bed a man who was paralyzed; and they were trying to bring him in and to set him down in front of Him. But not finding any way to bring him in because of the crowd, they went up on the roof and let him down through the tiles with his stretcher, into the middle of the crowd, in front of Jesus. Seeing their faith, He said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven you.” (Luke 5:17-20 NASB)
The power of the Lord was present for Him to perform healing. This is a difficult thing to render in English from Greek because of some Greek grammatical constructions that make little sense in English. Greek can use infinitives in much more creative ways than we can. We have to create the sense of what they mean in English without the grammatical constructions. So the meaning isn’t lost in English, it just sounds really weird.
