^41 (A)And there came a man named Jairus, who was ^(B)a ruler of the synagogue. And falling at Jesus' feet, he implored him to come to his house,

^22 (A)Then came one of ^(B)the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name, and seeing him, he fell at his feet ²³ and implored him earnestly, saying, “My little daughter is at the point of death. Come and ^(C)lay your hands on her, so that she may be made well and live.” ²⁴ And he went with him.

And a great crowd followed him and ^(D)thronged about him. ²⁵ And there was a woman ^(E)who had had a discharge of blood for twelve years, ²⁶ and who had suffered much under many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was no better but rather grew worse. ²⁷ She had heard the reports about Jesus and came up behind him in the crowd and touched his garment. ²⁸ For she said, “If I touch even his garments, I will be made well.” ^29 (F)And immediately the flow of blood dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of her ^(G)disease. ³⁰ And Jesus, perceiving in himself that ^(H)power had gone out from him, immediately turned about in the crowd and said, “Who touched my garments?” ³¹ And his disciples said to him, “You see the crowd pressing around you, and yet you say, ‘Who touched me?’” ³² And he looked around to see who had done it. ³³ But the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came in fear and trembling and fell down before him and told him the whole truth. ³⁴ And he said to her, “Daughter, ^(I)your faith has made you well; ^(J)go in peace, and be healed of your ^(K)disease.”

³⁵ While he was still speaking, there came from ^(L)the ruler's house some who said, “Your daughter is dead. Why ^(M)trouble ^(N)the Teacher any further?” ³⁶ But overhearing^[a] what they said, Jesus said to ^(O)the ruler of the synagogue, “Do not fear, only believe.” ³⁷ And he allowed no one to follow him except ^(P)Peter and James and ^(Q)John the brother of James. ³⁸ They came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and Jesus^[b] saw a commotion, people weeping and wailing loudly. ³⁹ And when he had entered, he said to them, ^(R)“Why are you making a commotion and weeping? The child is not dead but ^(S)sleeping.” ⁴⁰ And they laughed at him. But he ^(T)put them all outside and took the child's father and mother and those who were with him and went in where the child was. ^41 (U)Taking her by the hand he said to her, “Talitha cumi,” which means, “Little girl, I say to you, ^(V)arise.” ⁴² And immediately the girl got up and began walking (for she was twelve years of age), and they were immediately overcome with amazement. ⁴³ And ^(W)he strictly charged them that no one should know this, and told them to give her something to eat.

¹⁷ And they all seized Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him in front of the tribunal. But Gallio paid no attention to any of this.

^8 (A)Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord, together ^(B)with his entire household. And many of the Corinthians hearing Paul believed and were baptized.

¹⁵ After ^(A)the reading from ^(B)the Law and the Prophets, ^(C)the rulers of the synagogue sent a message to them, saying, “Brothers, if you have any ^(D)word of encouragement for the people, say it.”

¹⁴ But ^(A)the ruler of the synagogue, indignant because Jesus ^(B)had healed on the Sabbath, said to the people, ^(C)“There are six days in which work ought to be done. Come on those days and be healed, and not on the Sabbath day.”

⁴⁹ While he was still speaking, someone from ^(A)the ruler's house came and said, “Your daughter is dead; ^(B)do not trouble ^(C)the Teacher any more.”

⁸ And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders ^(A)fell down before the Lamb, ^(B)each holding a harp, and ^(C)golden bowls full of incense, ^(D)which are the prayers of the saints.

³⁸ Since Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, hearing that Peter was there, sent two men to him, urging him, ^(A)“Please come to us without delay.”
