Matthew 9:18-26

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

A Girl Restored to Life and a Woman Healed

¹⁸ While he was saying these things to them, suddenly a leader came in and knelt before him, saying, “My daughter has just died, but come and lay your hand on her, and she will live.”^{(A) 19} And Jesus got up and followed him, with his disciples. ²⁰ Then suddenly a woman who had been suffering from a flow of blood for twelve years came up behind him and touched the fringe of his cloak,^{(B) 21} for she was saying to herself, “If I only touch his cloak, I will be made well.”^{(C) 22} Jesus turned, and seeing her he said, “Take heart, daughter; your faith has made you well.” And the woman was made well from that moment.^{(D) 23} When Jesus came to the leader’s house and saw the flute players and the crowd making a commotion,^{(E) 24} he said, “Go away, for the girl is not dead but sleeping.” And they laughed at him.^{(F) 25} But when the crowd had been put outside, he went in and took her by the hand, and the girl got up. ²⁶ And the report of this spread through all of that district.
