Living_Oracles(i)
41 Meantime, a man named Jairus, came, a ruler of the synagogue, who, throwing himself at the feet of Jesus, besought him to come into his house;
42 for he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, who was dying. As Jesus went along, the people crowded him;
43 and a woman, who had been twelve years afflicted with an issue of blood, and had consumed all her living upon physicians, none of whom could cure her,
44 coming behind, touched the tuft of his mantle; upon which her issue was stopped.
45 Then Jesus said, Who touched me? When every body denied it, Peter, and those with him, answered, Master, the multitude throng and press you, and do you say, Who touched me?
46 Jesus replied, Some person has touched me; for I am sensible that my power was just now exerted.
47 Then the woman perceiving that she was discovered, came trembling, and having thrown herself prostrate, declared to him, before all the people, why she had touched him, and how she had been immediately healed:
48 and he said to her, Daughter, take courage, your faith has cured you, go in peace.
49 While he was yet speaking, one came from the house of the director of the synagogue, who said, your daughter is dead; trouble not the Teacher.
50 Jesus, hearing this, said to Jairus, Fear not; only believe, and she shall be well.
51 Being come to the house, he allowed no person to enter with him, except Peter, and John, and James, and the maid's father and mother.
52 And all wept, and lamented her. But he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but asleep.
53 And they derided him, knowing that she was dead.
54 But he, having made them all retire, took her by the hand, and called, saying, Maiden, arise.
55 And her spirit returned, and she arose immediately, and he commanded to give her food.
56 And her parents were astonished, but he charged them not to mention to any person what had happened.
