Mattityahu 9:20-29 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

20. And hinei! An isha (woman) hemorrhaging twelve years approached him from behind and touched the garment of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach's tzitzit.

21. For she was saying to herself, If only I might touch his garment, I will receive refuah (healing).

22. Turning and seeing her, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said, Chazak, bat (daughter) of me! Your emunah has brought you refuah. And the isha was healed from that hour.

23. And having come into the bais (house) of the nichbad (dignitary), and having seen the flute players and the unruly crowd,

24. Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was saying, Go away! For the yaldah is not among the mesim--she sleeps! And they were making leitzonus (mockery, fun) of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.

25. But when the crowd had been put outside, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach went in and took the yaldah by the hand and the yaldah was made to stand up alive.

26. And this report went out into all that region.

27. And as Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach went on from there, two ivrim (blind men) followed him, shouting loudly, Chaneinu, Ben Dovid!

28. And when Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach [Ben Dovid] entered the bais (house), the ivrim (blind men) approached him, and he says to them, Do you have emunah that I am able to do this? They say to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, Ken, Adoneinu.

29. Then Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach touched their eyes, saying, According to your emunah, let it be done for you.
