Mark 5:32-40 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

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.”

37. Jesus let only Peter, James, and John the brother of James go with him.

38. They went to the synagogue leader’s house, where Jesus saw many people crying loudly. There was a lot of confusion.

39. He entered the house and said, “Why are you people crying and making so much noise? This child is not dead. She is only sleeping.”

40. But everyone laughed at him. Jesus told the people to leave the house. Then he went into the room where the child was. He brought the child’s father and mother and his three followers into the room with him.
