Luke 8:41-56

Thomson(i) 41 And behold there came a man named Jairus, who was a ruler of the synagogue, who prostrating himself at the feet of Jesus, besought him to go to his house; 42 because he had a daughter, an only child, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. And as he was going, the people crowded him; 43 and a woman, who had been twelve years afflicted with an issue of blood, and who had spent all her living on physicians, none of whom could cure her, 44 came behind and touched the tuft of his mantle; and instantly her issue of blood was staunched. 45 Thereupon Jesus said, Who touched me? And when all denied, Peter and they who were with him, said; Master, the crowds are thronging and pressing thee, and dost thou say, Who touched me? 46 But Jesus said, Some one hath touched me, for I perceived a power going forth from me. 47 And when the woman saw that she had not escaped notice, she came trembling, and prostrating herself before him, told him in the presence of all the people, for what cause she had touched him, and how she was cured instantly. 48 Whereupon he said to her, Daughter, take courage; thy faith hath cured thee. Go in peace. 49 And while he was yet speaking, there cometh one from the ruler of the synagogue's house, and saith to him, Thy daughter is dead. Trouble not the teacher. 50 Upon hearing this, Jesus, addressed him, saying, Be not afraid. Only believe; and she will recover. 51 And when he entered the house, he permitted none to go .in, but Peter and James and John, and the father and the mother of the child. 52 Now all were weeping and lamenting her. But he said, Weep not. She is not dead; but asleep. 53 Upon which they derided him, knowing that she was dead. 54 And when he had put them all out, and taken her by the hand, he called, saying, Maiden, arise. 55 Whereupon her breath returned, and she arose immediately. And he ordered some food to be given her. 56 And her parents were astonished. And he charged them to tell no one what was done.
