Amplified Bible

Mark 5:19-33 Amplified Bible (AMP)

19. But Jesus refused to permit him, but said to him, Go home to your own [family and relatives and friends] and bring back word to them of how much the Lord has done for you, and [how He has] had sympathy for you and mercy on you.

20. And he departed and began to publicly proclaim in Decapolis [the region of the ten cities] how much Jesus had done for him, and all the people were astonished and marveled. [Matt. 4:25.]

21. And when Jesus had recrossed in the boat to the other side, a great throng gathered about Him, and He was at the lakeshore.

22. Then one of the rulers of the synagogue came up, Jairus by name; and seeing Him, he prostrated himself at His feet

23. And begged Him earnestly, saying, My little daughter is at the point of death. Come and lay Your hands on her, so that she may be healed and live.

24. And Jesus went with him; and a great crowd kept following Him and pressed Him from all sides [so as almost to suffocate Him].

25. And there was a woman who had had a flow of blood for twelve years,

26. And who had endured much suffering under [the hands of] many physicians and had spent all that she had, and was no better but instead grew worse.

27. She had heard the reports concerning Jesus, and she came up behind Him in the throng and touched His garment,

28. For she kept saying, If I only touch His garments, I shall be restored to health.

29. And immediately her flow of blood was dried up at the source, and [suddenly] she felt in her body that she was healed of her [distressing] ailment.

30. And Jesus, recognizing in Himself that the power proceeding from Him had gone forth, turned around immediately in the crowd and said, Who touched My clothes?

31. And the disciples kept saying to Him, You see the crowd pressing hard around You from all sides, and You ask, Who touched Me?

32. Still He kept looking around to see her who had done it.

33. But the woman, knowing what had been done for her, though alarmed and frightened and trembling, fell down before Him and told Him the whole truth.
