Mark 5:21-43
Wycliffe Bible
21 And when Jesus had gone up into the boat again over the sea, much people came together to him, and was about the sea.
22 And one of the princes of [the] synagogues, by name Jairus, came, and saw him, and he fell down at his feet,
23 and prayed him much, and said, My daughter is nigh dead [and prayed him much saying, For my daughter is in the last things]; come thou, put thine hand on her, that she be safe, and live.
24 And he went forth with him, and much people followed him, and thrusted him. [And Jesus went forth with him, and much company of people followed him, and oppressed him.]
25 And a woman that had been in the bloody flux twelve years, [And a woman that was in the flux of blood twelve years,]
26 and had received many things of full many physicians, and had spended all her good, and was nothing amended [and had suffered many things of full many leeches, and spended all her things, and nothing profited], but was rather the worse,
27 when she had heard of Jesus, she came among the people behind, and touched his cloak. [when she had heard of Jesus, she came in the company behind, and touched his cloth.]
28 For she said, That if I [shall] touch yea his cloak [Soothly she said, For if I shall touch yea his cloth], I shall be safe.
29 And at once [And anon] the well of her blood was dried up, and she feeled in her body that she was healed of the sickness [and she feeled in the body that she was healed of the sickness].
30 And at once Jesus knew in himself the virtue that was gone out of him, and he turned to the people, and said [And anon Jesus knowing in himself the virtue that had gone out of him, he, turned to the company, saith], Who touched my clothes?
31 And his disciples said to him, Thou seest the people thrusting thee [Thou seest the company pressing thee], and sayest [thou], Who touched me?
32 And Jesus looked about to see her that had done this thing.
33 And the woman dreaded, and quaked, witting that it was done in her, and came, and felled down before him [Forsooth the woman dreading and trembling, witting that it was done in her, came, and fell down before him], and said to him all the truth.
34 And Jesus said to her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee safe; go in peace, and be thou whole of thy sickness.
35 Yet while he spake, messengers came to the prince of the synagogue, and say [saying], Thy daughter is dead; what travailest thou the master further?
36 But when the word was heard that was said, Jesus said to the prince of the synagogue [Jesus saith to the prince of the synagogue], Do not thou dread, only believe thou.
37 And he took no man to follow him [And he received not any man to follow him], but Peter, and James, and John, the brother of James.
38 And they came into the house of the prince of the synagogue. And he saw noise, and men weeping and wailing much.
39 And he went in, and said to them [And he gone in, saith to them], What be ye troubled, and weep? The damsel is not dead, but sleepeth.
40 And they scorned him. But when all were put out, he taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and they entered [and they enter in], where the damsel lay.
41 And he held the hand of the damsel, and said to her, Talitha, cumi, that is to say [that is interpreted], Damsel, I say to thee, arise.
42 And at once [And anon] the damsel rose, and walked; and she was of twelve years. And they were abashed with a great astonishing.
43 And he commanded to them greatly, that no man should know it. And he commanded to give to her meat [And he commanded to give to her for to eat].

Mark 5:21-43
New Matthew Bible
21 And when Jesus had crossed over again by boat to the other side, crowds of people gathered to him. And he was near to the sea. 22 And there came one of the leaders of the synagogue, whose name was Jairus. And when he saw him, he fell down at his feet, 23 and besought him greatly, saying, My daughter lies at the point of death. Please come and lay your hand on her, so that she can be saved and live.
24 And Jesus went with him, and the crowds followed him and thronged him. 25 And there was a certain woman who had been troubled by a flow of blood for twelve years. 26 She had endured many things from many physicians, and spent all that she had, and was not helped at all, but grew worse and worse. 27 When she heard of Jesus, she penetrated the press behind him and touched his garment. 28 For she thought, If I can but touch his clothes, I shall be healed. 29 And straightaway her flow of blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of the illness.
30 And Jesus immediately felt in himself the power that went out of him, and turned around in the press of people and said, Who touched my clothes? 31 And his disciples said to him, You see the people thronging you, and yet you ask, Who touched me?
32 And he looked round about to see who had done it. 33 The woman feared and trembled (for she knew what was done within her), and she came and fell down before him, and told him the truth of everything. 34 And he said to her, Daughter, your faith has made you whole. Go in peace, and be healed of your affliction.
35 While he was yet speaking, certain people came from the house of the synagogue leader and said, Your daughter is dead; why trouble the Teacher any further? 36 As soon as Jesus heard that word spoken, he said to the leader of the synagogue, Be not afraid; only believe.
37 And he let no one follow him other than Peter, James, and John the brother of James. 38 And he went to the house of the synagogue leader and saw the disturbance, and the people who wept and wailed greatly, 39 and went in and said to them, Why do you make this ado, and weep? The maiden is not dead, but sleeping. 40 And they laughed him to scorn.
Then he put them all out, and took the father and the mother of the maiden and those who were with him, and entered in where the maiden lay. 41 He took the maiden by the hand and said to her, Tabitha, cumi! which translated is, Child, I say to you, arise! 42 And at once the maiden arose, and she walked on her feet, for she was twelve years of age. And they were astonished at it beyond measure. 43 And he charged them strictly that no one should know of it, and said to give her food.

1599 Geneva Bible
21 ¶ And when Jesus was come over again by ship unto the other side, a great multitude gathered together to him, and he was near unto the sea.
22 (A)And [a]behold, there came one of the rulers of the Synagogue, whose name was Jairus: and when he saw him, he fell down at his feet,
23 And besought him instantly, saying, My little daughter lieth at point of death: I pray thee that thou wouldest come and lay thine hands on her, that she may be healed, and live.
24 Then he went with him, and a great multitude followed him and thronged him.
25 ([b]And there was a certain woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years,
26 And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and it availed her nothing, but she became much worse.
27 When she had heard of Jesus, she came in the press behind, and touched his garment.
28 For she said, if I may but touch his clothes, I shall be whole.
29 And straightway the course of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body, that she was healed of that plague.
30 And immediately when Jesus did know in himself the virtue that went out of him, he turned him round about in the press, and said, Who hath touched my clothes?
31 And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude throng thee, and sayest thou, Who did touch me?
32 And he looked round about, to see her that had done that.
33 And the woman feared and trembled: for she knew what was done in her, and she came and fell down before him, and told him the whole truth.
34 And he said to her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole: go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.)
35 While he yet spake, there came from the same ruler of the Synagogue’s house certain which said, Thy daughter is dead: why diseasest thou the master any further?
36 [c]As soon as Jesus heard that word spoken, he said unto the ruler of the Synagogue, Be not afraid: only believe.
37 And he suffered no man to follow him save Peter and James, and John the brother of James.
38 So he came unto the house of the ruler of the Synagogue, and saw the tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly.
39 And he went in, and said unto them, Why make ye this trouble, and weep? the child is not dead, but sleepeth.
40 [d]And they laughed him to scorn: but he put them all out, and took the father, and the mother of the child, and them [e]that were with him, and entered in where the child lay,
41 And took the child by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi, which is by interpretation, Maiden, I say unto thee, arise.
42 And straightway the maiden arose, and walked: for she was of the age of twelve years, and they were astonied out of measure.
43 And he charged them straitly that no man should know of it, and commanded to give her meat.
