While Jesus was telling them these things ,
an official came up ,
fell down before him ,
and said , “
My daughter has just died .
But come and lay your hand on her ,
and she will live .”
*
So Jesus got up and followed him ,
along with his disciples .
*
Just then a woman who had been suffering from chronic bleeding for twelve years came up behind him and touched the tassel of his garment .
*
For she had been saying to herself , “
If I just touch his robe ,
I will get well .”
*
When Jesus turned and saw her ,
he said ,“
Be courageous ,
daughter !
Your faith has made you well .”
And from that very hour the woman was well .
*
When Jesus came to the official '
s house and saw the flute players and the crowd making a commotion ,
*
he said ,“
Go away !
The girl hasn '
t died but is sleeping .”
They laughed and laughed at him .
*
But when the crowd had been driven outside ,
he went in and took the girl by the hand ,
and she got up .
*
The news of this spread throughout that land .
