Luke 8:40-48

40When Jesus came back, a crowd welcomed him. Everyone was expecting him.

41A man named Jairus, a synagogue leader, arrived and quickly bowed down in front of Jesus. He begged Jesus to come to his home.

42His only daughter, who was about twelve years old, was dying. As Jesus went, the people were crowding around him.

43A woman who had been suffering from chronic bleeding for twelve years was in the crowd. No one could cure her.

44She came up behind Jesus, touched the edge of his clothes, and her bleeding stopped at once.

45Jesus asked, “Who touched me?” After everyone denied touching him, Peter said, “Teacher, the people are crowding you and pressing against you.”

46Jesus said, “Someone touched me. I know power has gone out of me.”

47The woman saw that she couldn’t hide. Trembling, she quickly bowed in front of him. There, in front of all the people, she told why she touched him and how she was cured at once.

48Jesus told her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace!”
