Jesus Heals a Woman and Jairus's Daughter

⁴⁰ Now when Jesus returned, the crowd ^(A)welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him. ^41 (B)And there came a man named Jairus, who was ^(C)a ruler of the synagogue. And falling at Jesus' feet, he implored him to come to his house, ⁴² for he had ^(D)an only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying.

As Jesus went, the people ^(E)pressed around him. ⁴³ And there was a woman ^(F)who had had a discharge of blood for twelve years, and though she had spent all her ^(G)living on physicians,^[a] she could not be healed by anyone. ⁴⁴ She came up behind him and touched ^(H)the fringe of his garment, and ^(I)immediately her discharge of blood ceased. ⁴⁵ And Jesus said, “Who was it that touched me?” When all denied it, Peter^[b] said, “Master, the crowds surround you and are pressing in on you!” ⁴⁶ But Jesus said, “Someone touched me, for I perceive that ^(J)power has gone out from me.”
