Jesus Heals a Woman and Jairus’ Daughter

^21 (A)And when Jesus had crossed over again in ^(B)the boat to the other side, a large crowd gathered around Him; and so He ^[a]stayed ^(C)by the seashore. ^22 (D)And one of ^(E)the synagogue ^[b]officials named Jairus *came up, and on seeing Him, *fell at His feet ²³ and *pleaded with Him earnestly, saying, “My little daughter is at the point of death; please come, that by coming, ^(F)You may lay Your hands on her, so that she will ^[c]be saved and live.” ²⁴ And He went off with him; and a large crowd was following Him and pressing in on Him.

²⁵ And a woman—who had a hemorrhage for twelve years ²⁶ and had endured much at the hands of many physicians, and had spent all that she had and was not helped at all, but rather had grown worse— ²⁷ after hearing about Jesus, she came up in the crowd behind Him and touched His garment. ²⁸ For she was saying, “If I just touch His garments, I will ^[d]be saved from this.” ²⁹ And immediately the flow of her blood was dried up; and she knew within her body that she had been healed of her ^(G)affliction. ³⁰ And immediately Jesus, perceiving in Himself that ^(H)the power proceeding from Him had gone forth, turned around in the crowd and was saying, “Who touched My garments?” ³¹ And His disciples were saying to Him, “You see the crowd pressing in on You, and You say, ‘Who touched Me?’” ³² And He was looking around to see the woman who had done this. ³³ But the woman fearing and trembling, aware of what had happened to her, came and fell down before Him and told Him the whole truth. ³⁴ And He said to her, “Daughter, ^(I)your faith has ^[e]saved you; ^(J)go in peace and be healed of your ^(K)affliction.”

³⁵ While He was still speaking, they *came from the house of the ^(L)synagogue official, saying, “Your daughter has died; why trouble the Teacher anymore?” ³⁶ But Jesus, overhearing what had been spoken, *said to the ^(M)synagogue official, “^(N)Do not be afraid, only ^[f]believe.” ³⁷ And He allowed no one to accompany Him, except ^(O)Peter and James and John the brother of James. ³⁸ And they *came to the house of the ^(P)synagogue official; and He *saw a commotion, and people loudly crying and wailing. ³⁹ And entering in, He *said to them, “Why are you making a commotion and crying? The child has not died, but is asleep.” ⁴⁰ And they began laughing at Him. But putting them all out, He *took along the child’s father and mother and His own companions, and *entered the room where the child was. ⁴¹ And taking the child by the hand, He *said to her, “Talitha kum!” (which translated means, “Little girl, ^(Q)I say to you, arise!”). ⁴² And immediately the little girl stood up and began to walk, for she was twelve years old. And immediately they were completely astounded. ⁴³ And He ^(R)gave them strict orders that no one should know about this, and He said that some food should be given to her to eat.
