18 While he was saying this, a synagogue
leader came and knelt before him and said, “My daughter has just died.
But come and put your hand on her, and she will live.” 19 Jesus got up
and went with him, and so did his disciples.
20 Just then a woman who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years
came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak. 21 She said to
herself, “If I only touch his cloak, I will be healed.”
22 Jesus turned and saw her. “Take heart, daughter,” he said, “your
faith has healed you.” And the woman was healed at that moment.

21 When Jesus had again crossed over by boat
to the other side of the lake, a large crowd gathered around him while
he was by the lake. 22 Then one of the synagogue leaders, named Jairus,
came, and when he saw Jesus, he fell at his feet. 23 He pleaded
earnestly with him, “My little daughter is dying. Please come and put
your hands on her so that she will be healed and live.” 24 So Jesus went
with him.
A large crowd followed and pressed around him. 25 And a woman was there
who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years. 26 She had suffered a
great deal under the care of many doctors and had spent all she had, yet
instead of getting better she grew worse. 27 When she heard about Jesus,
she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak, 28 because
she thought, “If I just touch his clothes, I will be healed.” 29
Immediately her bleeding stopped and she felt in her body that she was
freed from her suffering.
30 At once Jesus realized that power had gone out from him. He turned
around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my clothes?”
31 “You see the people crowding against you,” his disciples answered,
“and yet you can ask, ‘Who touched me?’ ”
32 But Jesus kept looking around to see who had done it. 33 Then the
woman, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell at his feet and,
trembling with fear, told him the whole truth. 34 He said to her,
“Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your
suffering.”

40 Now when Jesus returned, a crowd welcomed
him, for they were all expecting him. 41 Then a man named Jairus, a
synagogue leader, came and fell at Jesus’ feet, pleading with him to
come to his house 42 because his only daughter, a girl of about twelve,
was dying.
As Jesus was on his way, the crowds almost crushed him. 43 And a woman
was there who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years,
[a] but no one could heal her. 44 She came up
behind him and touched the edge of his cloak, and immediately her bleeding
stopped.
45 “Who touched me?” Jesus asked.
When they all denied it, Peter said, “Master, the people are crowding
and pressing against you.”
46 But Jesus said, “Someone touched me; I know that power has gone out
from me.”
47 Then the woman, seeing that she could not go unnoticed, came
trembling and fell at his feet. In the presence of all the people, she
told why she had touched him and how she had been instantly healed. 48
Then he said to her, “Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace.”
a. Many manuscripts: years, and she had spent all she
had on doctors.

23 When Jesus entered the synagogue leader’s house and saw the noisy
crowd and people playing pipes, 24 he said, “Go away. The girl is not
dead but asleep.” But they laughed at him. 25 After the crowd had been
put outside, he went in and took the girl by the hand, and she got up.
26 News of this spread through all that region. |
35 While Jesus was still speaking, some people came from the house of
Jairus, the synagogue leader. “Your daughter is dead,” they said. “Why
bother the teacher anymore?”
36 Overhearing[c]
what they said, Jesus told him, “Don’t be afraid; just believe.”
37 He did not let anyone follow him except Peter, James and John the
brother of James. 38 When they came to the home of the synagogue leader,
Jesus saw a commotion, with people crying and wailing loudly. 39 He went
in and said to them, “Why all this commotion and wailing? The child is
not dead but asleep.” 40 But they laughed at him.
After he put them all out, he took the child’s father and mother and the
disciples who were with him, and went in where the child was. 41 He took
her by the hand and said to her, “Talitha koum!” (which means “Little
girl, I say to you, get up!”). 42 Immediately the girl stood up and
began to walk around (she was twelve years old). At this they were
completely astonished. 43 He gave strict orders not to let anyone know
about this, and told them to give her something to eat.

49 While Jesus was still speaking, someone came from the house of
Jairus, the synagogue leader. “Your daughter is dead,” he said. “Don’t
bother the teacher anymore.”
50 Hearing this, Jesus said to Jairus, “Don’t be afraid; just believe,
and she will be healed.”
51 When he arrived at the house of Jairus, he did not let anyone go in
with him except Peter, John and James, and the child’s father and
mother. 52 Meanwhile, all the people were wailing and mourning for her.
“Stop wailing,” Jesus said. “She is not dead but asleep.”
53 They laughed at him, knowing that she was dead. 54 But he took her by
the hand and said, “My child, get up!” 55 Her spirit returned, and at
once she stood up. Then Jesus told them to give her something to eat. 56
Her parents were astonished, but he ordered them not to tell anyone what
had happened. |
