Mark 5:21-43
English Standard Version Anglicised
Jesus Heals a Woman and Jairus's Daughter
21 And when Jesus had crossed again in the boat to the other side, a great crowd gathered about him, and he was beside the sea. 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 round 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.

Isaiah 5:1-7
English Standard Version Anglicised
The Vineyard of the Lord Destroyed
5 Let me sing for my beloved
my love song concerning his vineyard:
My beloved had (A)a vineyard
on a very fertile hill.
2 He dug it and cleared it of stones,
and planted it with (B)choice vines;
he built a watchtower in the midst of it,
and hewed out a wine vat in it;
and (C)he looked for it to yield grapes,
but it yielded wild grapes.
3 And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem
and men of Judah,
judge between me and my vineyard.
4 (D)What more was there to do for my vineyard,
that I have not done in it?
(E)When I looked for it to yield grapes,
why did it yield wild grapes?
5 And now I will tell you
what I will do to my vineyard.
I will remove (F)its hedge,
and it shall be devoured;[a]
(G)I will break down its wall,
and it shall be trampled down.
6 I will make it a waste;
it shall not be pruned or hoed,
and (H)briers and thorns shall grow up;
(I)I will also command the clouds
that they rain no rain upon it.
7 (J)For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts
is the house of Israel,
and the men of Judah
are his pleasant planting;
and he looked for justice,
but behold, bloodshed;[b]
for righteousness,
but behold, an outcry![c]
