Miracles of Healing

18 (A)While He was saying these things to them, [a]a synagogue [b]official came and [c](B)bowed down before Him, and said, “My daughter has just died; but come and lay Your hand on her, and she will live.” 19 Jesus got up and began to follow him, and so did His disciples.

20 And a woman who had been suffering from a hemorrhage for twelve years, came up behind Him and touched (C)the [d]fringe of His [e]cloak; 21 for she was saying [f]to herself, “If I only (D)touch His garment, I will [g]get well.” 22 But Jesus turning and seeing her said, “Daughter, (E)take courage; (F)your faith has [h]made you well.” [i]At once the woman was [j]made well.

23 When Jesus came into the [k]official’s house, and saw (G)the flute-players and the crowd in noisy disorder, 24 He said, “Leave; for the girl (H)has not died, but is asleep.” And they began laughing at Him. 25 But (I)when the crowd had been sent out, He entered and (J)took her by the hand, and the girl [l]got up. 26 (K)This news spread throughout all that land.
