Jesus uses a question to challenge the scribes. He does not mean one action is harder for him than the other. He is reminding the scribes that they believe when God heals a person's body it means he has forgiven them of their sins. AT: "For you know it is just as easy to say, 'Your sins are forgiven,' as it is to say, 'Get up and walk'." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])
Jesus uses this question to make the scribes think about what might prove whether or not he could really forgive sins. AT: "I just said 'Your sins are forgiven.' Perhaps it is harder to say "Get up and walk," because the proof of whether or not I can heal the man will be shown by whether or not he gets up and walks" or "You may think that it is easier to say "Your sins are forgiven" than it is to say 'Get up and walk." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])

The quotes can be translated as indirect quotes.
