18. As he was saying these things, a ruler came, bowed low before him, and said, “My daughter has just died, but come and lay your hand on her and she will live.”
19. Jesus and his disciples got up and followed him.

21. For she kept saying to herself, “If only I touch his cloak, I will be healed.”
22. But when Jesus turned and saw her he said, “Have courage, daughter! Your faith has made you well.” And the woman was healed from that hour.
23. When Jesus entered the ruler’s house and saw the flute players and the disorderly crowd,
24. he said, “Go away, for the girl is not dead but asleep.” And they began making fun of him.
