* And when Jesus had crossed again in the boat to the ether side , a great multitude gathered about him ; and he was by the lake . * And there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue , Jairus by name ; and seeing him , he fell at his feet , * and besought him much , saying , My little daughter lieth at the point of death ; I pray thee , come and lay thy hands on her , that she may be saved and live . * And he went with him ; and a great multitude followed him , and pressed upon him . * And a woman , who had had an issue of blood twelve years , * and had undergone much at the hands of many physicians , and spent all that she had , and was not at all benefited , but rather grew worse , * having heard about Jesus , came in the crowd behind , and touched his garment . * For she said , If I touch even his garments , I shall be made well . * And immediately the fountain of her blood was dried up ; and she perceived in her body that she was cured of her plague . * And Jesus immediately perceiving in himself that power had gone out from him , turned round in the crowed , and said , Who touched my garments ? * And his disciples said to him , Thou seest the multitude pressing on thee , and dost thou say , Who touched me ? * And he looked round to see her who had done this . * But the woman , fearing and trembling , knowing what had been done to her , came and fell down before him , and told him all the truth . * And he said to her , Daughter , thy faith hath made thee well ; go in peace , and be recovered from thy plague . * While he was yet speaking , there came from the house I of the ruler of the synagogue some who said , Thy daughter is dead ; why dost thou trouble the Teacher any further ? * And Jesus , overhearing those words , saith to the ruler of the synagogue , Fear not ; only believe . * And he suffered no one to follow him except Peter and James , and John the brother of James . * And they come to the house of the ruler of the synagogue ; and he seeth a tumult , and people weeping and wailing greatly . * And going in , he saith to them , Why do ye make this confusion and weeping ? The child is not dead , but is sleeping . * And they laughed him to scorn . But putting them all out , he taketh the father of the child , and the mother , and those who were with him , and entereth where the child was . * And taking hold of the hand of the child , he saith to her , Talitha , kum ; which is , when interpreted , Damsel , I say to thee , arise ! * And immediately the damsel arose and walked ; for she was twelve years old . And immediately they were greatly astonished . * And he charged them strictly that no one should know it , and bade that something should be given her to eat .
