At that time, there came to Jesus a man named Jairus, who was a
ruler of the synagogue; and falling at Jesus' feet he besought him to
come to his house, for he had an only daughter, about twelve years of
age, and she was dying. As he went, the people pressed round him. And
a woman who had had a flow of blood for twelve years and had spent
all her living upon physicians and could not be healed by anyone,
came up behind him, and touched the fringe of his garment; and
immediately her flow of blood ceased. And Jesus said, "Who was it that
touched me?" When all denied it, Peter said, "Master, the multitudes
surround you and press upon you!" But Jesus said, "Some one touched me;
for I perceive that power has gone forth from me." And when the woman
saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling, and falling down
before him declared in the presence of all the people why she had
touched him, and how she had been immediately healed. And he said to her,
"Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace." While he was still
speaking, a man from the ruler's house came and said, "Your daughter is
dead; do not trouble the Teacher any more." But Jesus on hearing this
answered him, "Do not fear; only believe, and she shall be well." And when
he came to the house, he permitted no one to enter with him, except
Peter and John and James, and the father and mother of the child. And
all were weeping and bewailing her; but he said, "Do not weep; for
she is not dead but sleeping." And they laughed at him, knowing that
she was dead. But taking her by the hand he called, saying, "Child,
arise." And her spirit returned, and she got up at once; and he directed
that something should be given her to eat. And her parents were
amazed; but he charged them to tell no one what had happened.
