Mark 5:22-43 And one of the Presidents of the Synagogue, whose name was Jaeirus, came and, as soon as he saw Jesus, threw himself at his feet with repeated entreaties.

Twentieth_Century⁽ⁱ⁾ ²² And one of the Presidents of the Synagogue, whose name was Jaeirus, came and, as soon as he saw Jesus, threw himself at his feet with repeated entreaties. ²³ "My little daughter," he said, "is at the point of death; I beg you to come and place your hands on her, that her life may be spared." ²⁴ So Jesus went with him. A great number of People followed Jesus, and kept pressing round him. ²⁵ Meanwhile a woman who for twelve years had suffered from hemorrhage, ²⁶ And undergone much at the hands of many doctors, (spending all she had without obtaining any relief, but, on the contrary, growing worse), ²⁷ Heard about Jesus, came behind in the crowd, and touched his cloak. ²⁸ "If I can only touch his clothes," she said, "I shall get well!" ²⁹ At once the mischief was stopped, and she felt in herself that she was cured of her complaint. ³⁰ Jesus at once became aware of the power that had gone out from him, and, turning round in the crowd, he said: "Who touched my clothes?" ³¹ "You see the people pressing round you," exclaimed his disciples, "and yet you say 'Who touched me?'" ³² But Jesus looked about to see who had done it. ³³ Then the woman, in fear and trembling, knowing what had happened to her, came and threw herself down before him, and told him the whole truth. ³⁴ "Daughter," he said, "your faith has delivered you. Go, and peace be with you; be free from your complaint." ³⁵ Before he had finished speaking, some people from the house of the President of the Synagogue came and said: "Your daughter is dead! Why should you trouble the Teacher further?" ³⁶ But Jesus, overhearing what they were saying, said to the President of the Synagogue: "Do not be afraid; only have faith." ³⁷ And he allowed no one to accompany him, except Peter, James, and John, the brother of James. ³⁸ Presently they reached the President's house, where Jesus saw a scene of confusion--people weeping and wailing incessantly. ³⁹ "Why this confusion and weeping?" he said on entering. "The little child is not dead; she is asleep." ⁴⁰ They began to laugh at him; but he sent them all out, and then, with the child's father and mother and his companions, went into the room where she was lying. ⁴¹ Taking her hand, Jesus said to her: "Taleitha, koum!"--which means 'little girl, I am speaking to you--Rise!' ⁴² The little girl stood up at once, and began to walk about; for she was twelve years old. And, as soon as they saw it, they were overwhelmed with amazement; ⁴³ But Jesus repeatedly cautioned them not to let any one know of it, and told them to give her something to eat.
