A Girl Restored to Life and a Woman Healed

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

Jesus Heals Two Blind Men

27 (L)And as Jesus passed on from there, two blind men followed him, crying aloud, “Have mercy on us, (M)Son of David.” 28 When he entered the house, the blind men came to him, and Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” They said to him, “Yes, Lord.” 29 (N)Then he touched their eyes, saying, (O)“According to your faith be it done to you.” 30 And their eyes were opened. And Jesus sternly warned them, (P)“See that no one knows about it.” 31 (Q)But they went away and spread his fame through all that district.

Jesus Heals a Man Unable to Speak

32 As they were going away, behold, a (R)demon-oppressed man who was mute (S)was brought to him. 33 And when the demon had been cast out, the mute man spoke. And the crowds (T)marvelled, saying, “Never was anything like this seen in Israel.” 34 But the Pharisees said, “He casts out demons by the prince of demons.”

Jesus Raises a Dead Girl and Heals a Sick Woman(A)

18 While he was saying this, a synagogue leader came and knelt before him(B) and said, “My daughter has just died. But come and put your hand on her,(C) and she will live.” 19 Jesus got up and went with him, and so did his disciples.

20 Just then a woman who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak.(D) 21 She said to herself, “If I only touch his cloak, I will be healed.”

22 Jesus turned and saw her. “Take heart,(E) daughter,” he said, “your faith has healed you.”(F) And the woman was healed at that moment.(G)

23 When Jesus entered the synagogue leader’s house and saw the noisy crowd and people playing pipes,(H) 24 he said, “Go away. The girl is not dead(I) but asleep.”(J) But they laughed at him. 25 After the crowd had been put outside, he went in and took the girl by the hand, and she got up.(K) 26 News of this spread through all that region.(L)

Jesus Heals the Blind and the Mute

27 As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed him, calling out, “Have mercy on us, Son of David!”(M)

28 When he had gone indoors, the blind men came to him, and he asked them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?”

“Yes, Lord,” they replied.(N)

29 Then he touched their eyes and said, “According to your faith let it be done to you”;(O) 30 and their sight was restored. Jesus warned them sternly, “See that no one knows about this.”(P) 31 But they went out and spread the news about him all over that region.(Q)

32 While they were going out, a man who was demon-possessed(R) and could not talk(S) was brought to Jesus. 33 And when the demon was driven out, the man who had been mute spoke. The crowd was amazed and said, “Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel.”(T)

34 But the Pharisees said, “It is by the prince of demons that he drives out demons.”(U)
