Matthew 9:21-27 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

21. She thought, "I only need to touch his clothes. Then I will be healed."

22. Jesus turned and saw her. "Dear woman, don't give up hope," he said. "Your faith has healed you." The woman was healed at that very moment.

23. When Jesus entered the ruler's house, he saw the flute players there. And he saw the noisy crowd.

24. He said, "Go away. The girl is not dead. She is sleeping." But they laughed at him.

25. After the crowd had been sent outside, Jesus went in. He took the girl by the hand, and she got up.

26. News about what Jesus had done spread all over that area.

27. As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed him. They called out, "Have mercy on us, Son of David!"
