Luke 8:41-56

411And there came a man named Jairus, and he was an 23official of the synagogue; and he fell at Jesus’ feet, and began to implore Him to come to his house; 42for he had an 4only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was dying. But as He went, the crowds were pressing against Him.

43And a woman who had a hemorrhage for twelve years, and could not be healed by anyone, 44came up behind Him and touched the fringe of His 5cloak, and immediately her hemorrhage stopped. 45And Jesus said, “Who is the one who touched Me?” And while they were all denying it, Peter said, “6Master, the 7people are crowding and pressing in on You.” 46But Jesus said, “Someone did touch Me, for I was aware that 8power had gone out of Me.” 47When the woman saw that she had not escaped notice, she came trembling and fell down before Him, and declared in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched Him, and how she had been immediately healed. 48And He said to her, “Daughter, 9your faith has 10made you well; 11go in peace.”

49While He was still speaking, someone came from the house of 12the synagogue official, saying, “Your daughter has died; do not trouble the Teacher anymore.” 50But when Jesus heard this, He answered him, “13Do not be afraid any longer; only believe, and she will be 14made well.” 51When He came to the house, He did not allow anyone to enter with Him, except Peter and John and James, and the girl’s father and mother. 52Now they were all weeping and 15lamenting for her; but He said, “Stop weeping, for she has not died, but 16is asleep.” 53And they began laughing at Him, knowing that she had died. 54He, however, took her by the hand and called, saying, “Child, arise!” 55And her spirit returned, and she got up immediately; and He gave orders for something to be given her to eat. 56Her parents were amazed; but He 17instructed them to tell no one what had happened.
