43. In the crowd was a woman who had been bleeding for twelve years. She had spent everything she had on doctors, but none of them could make her well.
44. As soon as she came up behind Jesus and barely touched his clothes, her bleeding stopped.
45. “Who touched me?” Jesus asked.While everyone was denying it, Peter said, “Master, people are crowding all around and pushing you from every side.”
46. But Jesus answered, “Someone touched me, because I felt power going out from me.”
47. The woman knew that she could not hide, so she came trembling and knelt down in front of Jesus. She told everyone why she had touched him and that she had been healed straight away.
48. Jesus said to the woman, “You are now well because of your faith. May God give you peace!”
49. While Jesus was speaking, someone came from Jairus' home and said, “Your daughter has died! Why bother the teacher any more?”
50. When Jesus heard this, he told Jairus, “Don't worry! Have faith, and your daughter will get well.”
51. Jesus went into the house, but he did not let anyone else go with him, except Peter, John, James, and the girl's father and mother.
52. Everyone was crying and weeping for the girl. But Jesus said, “The child isn't dead. She is just asleep.”
