A Dead Girl and a Sick Woman
While he told these
things to them, behold, a ruler came and worshiped him, saying, "My
daughter has just died, but come and lay your hand on her, and she will
live."
Jesus got up and
followed him, as did his disciples. Behold, a woman who had an issue
of blood for twelve years came behind him, and touched the tassels of his
garment; for she said
within herself, "If I just touch his garment, I will be made
well."
But Jesus, turning
around and seeing her, said, "Daughter, cheer up!
Your faith has made you well." And the woman was made well
from that hour.
When Jesus came into
the ruler's house, and saw the flute players, and the crowd in noisy
disorder, he said to
them, "Make room, because the girl isn't dead, but
sleeping."
They were ridiculing him. But when the crowd was put out,
he entered in, took her by the hand, and the girl arose. The report of this went out into
all that land.
