41. Just then the man in charge of the Jewish meeting place came and knelt down in front of Jesus. His name was Jairus, and he begged Jesus to come to his home
42. because his twelve-year-old child was dying. She was his only daughter.While Jesus was on his way, people were crowding all around him.
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?”
