¹⁸ While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came ^[a]a ruler, and ^[b]worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live. ¹⁹ And Jesus arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples. ²⁰ And behold, a woman, who had an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the border of his garment: ²¹ for she said within herself, If I do but touch his garment, I shall be ^[c]made whole. ²² But Jesus turning and seeing her said, Daughter, be of good cheer; thy faith hath ^[d]made thee whole. And the woman was ^[e]made whole from that hour. ²³ And when Jesus came into the ruler’s house, and saw the flute-players, and the crowd making a tumult, ²⁴ he said, Give place: for the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn. ²⁵ But when the crowd was put forth, he entered in, and took her by the hand; and the damsel arose. ²⁶ And ^[f]the fame hereof went forth into all that land.
