18 ^tWhile he was saying these things to them, behold, a ruler came in and ^uknelt before him, saying, “My daughter has just died, but come and lay your hand on her, and she will live.” 19 And Jesus rose and followed him, with his disciples. 20 And behold, a woman ^vwho had suffered from a discharge of blood for twelve years came up behind him and touched ^wthe fringe of his garment, 21 for she said to herself, “If I only touch his garment, I will be made well.” 22 Jesus turned, and seeing her he said, ^x“Take heart, daughter; your faith has made you well.” ^yAnd instantly¹ the woman was made well. 23 And when Jesus came to the ruler’s house and saw ^zthe flute players and the crowd making a commotion, 24 he said, “Go away, for ^athe girl is not dead but ^bsleeping.” And they laughed at him. 25 But ^cwhen the crowd had been put outside, he went in and ^dtook her by the hand, and the girl arose. 26 And the report of this went through all that district.
