20 Just then a woman who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak. |
21 She said to herself, "If I only touch his cloak, I will be healed." |
22 Jesus turned and saw her. "Take heart, daughter," he said, "your faith has healed you." And the woman was healed from that moment. |
23 When Jesus entered the ruler's house and saw the flute players and the noisy crowd, |
24 he said, "Go away. The girl is not dead but asleep." But they laughed at him. |
25 After the crowd had been put outside, he went in and took the girl by the hand, and she got up. |
26 News of this spread through all that region. |
