Mark 5:21-43
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.
