Luke 8:47-49

47 When[a] the woman saw that she could not escape notice,[b] she came trembling and fell down before him. In[c] the presence of all the people, she explained why[d] she had touched him and how she had been immediately healed. 48 Then[e] he said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well.[f] Go in peace.”
49 While he was still speaking, someone from the synagogue leader’s[g] house came and said, “Your daughter is dead; do not trouble the teacher any longer.”
