27. The woman heard about Jesus, so she followed him with the other people and touched his coat.
28. She thought, “If I can just touch his clothes, that will be enough to heal me.”
29. As soon as she touched his coat, her bleeding stopped. She felt that her body was healed from all the suffering.
30. Jesus immediately felt power go out from him, so he stopped and turned around. “Who touched my clothes?” he asked.
31. The followers said to Jesus, “There are so many people pushing against you. But you ask, ‘Who touched me?’”
32. But Jesus continued looking for the one who touched him.
33. The woman knew that she was healed, so she came and bowed at Jesus’ feet. She was shaking with fear. She told Jesus the whole story.
34. He said to her, “Dear woman, you are made well because you believed. Go in peace. You will not suffer anymore.”
35. While Jesus was still there speaking, some men came from the house of Jairus, the synagogue leader. They said, “Your daughter is dead. There is no need to bother the Teacher.”
36. But Jesus did not care what the men said. He said to the synagogue leader, “Don’t be afraid; just believe.”
