New Testament

Luke 8:45-53 Modern English Version (MEV)

45. Jesus said, “Who touched Me?”When everyone denied it, Peter and those who were with Him said, “Master, the crowds are pressing against You, and You say, ‘Who touched Me?’ ”

46. But Jesus said, “Someone touched Me, for I perceive that power has gone out from Me.”

47. When the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling. And falling down before Him, she declared to Him before all the people why she had touched Him and how she was healed immediately.

48. Then He said to her, “Daughter, be of good cheer. Your faith has made you well. Go in peace.”

49. While He was still speaking, someone from the synagogue ruler’s house came, saying to Jairus, “Your daughter is dead. Do not trouble the Teacher.”

50. But when Jesus heard it, He answered him, “Do not fear. Only believe, and she will be made well.”

51. When He came into the house, He permitted no one to go in except Peter, John and James, and the father and mother of the girl.

52. All wept and mourned for her. But He said, “Do not weep. She is not dead but sleeping.”

53. They laughed at Him, knowing that she was dead.
