Luke 8:40-56
New American Standard Bible
Miracles of Healing
40 (A)And as Jesus was returning, the [a]people welcomed Him, for they had all been waiting for Him. 41 (B)And a man named Jairus came, and he was an [b](C)official of the synagogue; and he fell at Jesus’ feet, and began urging Him to come to his house; 42 for he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was dying. But as He went, the crowds were pressing against Him.
43 And a woman who had suffered a chronic flow of blood for twelve years, and could not be healed by anyone, 44 came up behind Him and touched the fringe of His [c]cloak, and immediately her bleeding stopped. 45 And Jesus said, “Who is the one who touched Me?” And while they were all denying it, Peter said, “(D)Master, the [d]people are crowding and pressing in on You.” 46 But Jesus said, “Someone did touch Me, for I was aware that (E)power had left Me.” 47 Now when the woman saw that she had not escaped notice, she came trembling and fell down before Him, and admitted in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched Him, and how she had been immediately healed. 48 And He said to her, “Daughter, (F)your faith has [e]made you well; (G)go in peace.”
49 While He was still speaking, someone *came from the house of (H)the synagogue official, saying, “Your daughter has died; do not trouble the Teacher anymore.” 50 But when Jesus heard this, He responded to him, “(I)Do not be afraid any longer; only believe, and she will be [f]made well.” 51 When He came to the house, He did not allow anyone to enter with Him except Peter, John, and James, and the girl’s father and mother. 52 Now they were all weeping and (J)mourning for her; but He said, “Stop weeping, for she has not died, but (K)is asleep.” 53 And they began laughing at Him, knowing that she had died. 54 He, however, took her by the hand and spoke [g]forcefully, saying, “Child, arise!” 55 And her spirit returned, and she got up immediately; and He ordered that something be given her to eat. 56 Her parents were amazed; but He (L)instructed them to tell no one what had happened.

Disciples’ Literal New Testament
Jairus, a Synagogue Official, Comes To Jesus About His Dying Daughter
40 And during Jesus’ returning, the crowd welcomed Him, for they were all expecting Him. 41 And behold— a man came, for whom the name was Jairus. And this one was an official[a] of the synagogue. And having fallen at[b] the feet of Jesus, he was begging Him to enter into his house, 42 because there was an only-born daughter to him, about twelve years old, and she was dying.
On The Way, a Woman Touches The Garment of Jesus And Is Healed
Now during His going, the crowds were thronging[c] Him. 43 And a woman being in a flow of blood for twelve years— who, having expended her whole living on physicians, was not able to be cured by anyone— 44 having approached from behind, touched the tassel of His garment. And at once her flow of blood stopped. 45 And Jesus said, “Who is the one having touched Me?” And while all were denying it, Peter said, “Master, the crowds are enclosing You and pressing-against You”. 46 But Jesus said, “Someone touched Me, for I recognized[d] power[e] having gone forth from Me”. 47 And the woman, having seen that she did not escape-notice, came trembling. And having fallen before Him, she declared in the presence of all the people for what reason she touched Him, and how she was healed at-once. 48 And the One said to her, “Daughter, your faith has restored[f] you. Go in peace”.
The Daughter Dies Before Jesus Arrives. He Raises Her From The Dead
49 While He is still speaking, someone comes from [the house of] the synagogue-official, saying that “Your daughter is dead. Be troubling the Teacher no longer”. 50 But Jesus, having heard, responded to him, “Do not be fearing. Only believe, and she will be restored”. 51 And having come to the house, He did not permit anyone to go in with Him except Peter and John and James, and the father of the child, and the mother. 52 Now they[g] were all weeping and beating-their-breasts for her. But the One said, “Do not be weeping, for she did not die, but she is sleeping”. 53 And they were laughing-scornfully at Him, knowing that she died. 54 But He, having taken hold of her hand, called, saying, “Child, arise!” 55 And her spirit returned, and she stood up at-once. And He directed that something should be given to her to eat. 56 And her parents were astonished. And the One ordered them to tell no one the thing having taken place.
