A Ruler’s Daughter and a Sick Woman

18

While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came a ruler, and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.

19

And Jesus arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples.

20

And behold, a woman, who had an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the border of his garment:

21

for she said within herself, If I do but touch his garment, I shall be made whole.

22

But Jesus turning and seeing her said, Daughter, be of good cheer; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.

23

And when Jesus came into the ruler’s house, and saw the flute-players, and the crowd making a tumult,

24

he said, Give place: for the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn.

25

But when the crowd was put forth, he entered in, and took her by the hand; and the damsel arose.

26

And the fame hereof went forth into all that land.
