Luke 8:41-56

411And there cameG2064 a manG435 namedG3686 JairusG2383, and he was an 23officialG758 of the synagogueG4864; and he fellG4098 at Jesus’G2424 feetG4228, and began to imploreG3870 Him to comeG1525 to his houseG3624; 42for he hadG1510 an 4onlyG3439 daughterG2364, aboutG5613 twelveG1427 yearsG2094 old, and she was dyingG599. But as He wentG5217, the crowdsG3793 were pressingG4846 againstG4846 Him.

43And a womanG1135 who hadG1722 a hemorrhageG4511G129 for twelveG1427 yearsG2094, and couldG2480 not be healedG2323 by anyoneG3762, 44cameG4334 up behindG3693 Him and touchedG681 the fringeG2899 of His 5cloakG2440, and immediatelyG3916 her hemorrhageG4511G129 stoppedG2476. 45And JesusG2424 saidG3004, “WhoG5101 is the one who touchedG681 Me?” And while they were allG3956 denyingG720 it, PeterG4074 saidG3004, “6MasterG1988, the 7peopleG3793 are crowdingG4912 and pressingG598 in on You.” 46But JesusG2424 saidG3004, “SomeoneG5100 did touchG681 Me, for I was awareG1097 that 8powerG1411 had goneG1831 out of Me.” 47When the womanG1135 sawG3708 that she had not escapedG2990 noticeG2990, she cameG2064 tremblingG5141 and fellG4363 downG4363 beforeG4363 Him, and declaredG518 in the presenceG1799 of allG3956 the peopleG2992 the reasonG156 whyG1223G3739 she had touchedG681 Him, and howG5613 she had been immediatelyG3916 healedG2390. 48And He saidG3004 to her, “DaughterG2364, 9your faithG4102 has 10madeG4982 you wellG4982; 11goG4198 in peaceG1515.”

49While He was stillG2089 speakingG2980, someoneG5100 cameG2064 from the house of 12the synagogueG752 officialG752, sayingG3004, “Your daughterG2364 has diedG2348; do not troubleG4660 the TeacherG1320 anymoreG3371.” 50But when JesusG2424 heardG191 this, He answeredG611 him, “13Do not be afraidG5399 any longer; onlyG3440 believeG4100, and she will be 14madeG4982 wellG4982.” 51When He cameG2064 to the houseG3614, He did not allowG863 anyoneG5100 to enterG1525 with Him, exceptG1508 PeterG4074 and JohnG2491 and JamesG2385, and the girl’sG3816 fatherG3962 and motherG3384. 52NowG1161 they were allG3956 weepingG2799 and 15lamentingG2875 for her; but He saidG3004, “StopG3361 weepingG2799, for she has not diedG599, but 16is asleepG2518.” 53And they began laughingG2606 at Him, knowingG3609 that she had diedG599. 54He, howeverG1161, tookG2902 her by the handG5495 and calledG5455, sayingG3004, “ChildG3816, ariseG1453!” 55And her spiritG4151 returnedG1994, and she gotG450 up immediatelyG3916; and He gaveG1299 ordersG1299 for something to be givenG1325 her to eatG2068. 56Her parentsG1118 were amazedG1839; but He 17instructedG3853 them to tellG3004 noG3367 oneG3367 what had happenedG1096.
