The Raising Of Jairus' Daughter.
The Woman With And Issue Of Blood
59. Mark 5:22-43
22 And, behold, there cometh one of the rulers of the
synagogue, Jairus by name; and when he saw him, he fell at
his feet, 23 And besought him greatly, saying, My little
daughter lieth at the point of death: I pray thee, come and lay
thy hands on her, that she may be healed; and she shall live.
24 And Jesus went with him; and much people followed him,
and thronged him. 25 And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve
years, 26 And had suffered many things of many physicians,
and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but
rather grew worse, 27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in
the press behind, and touched his garment. 28 For she said,
If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole. 29 And
straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she
felt in her body that she was healed of that plague. 30 And
Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone
out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who
touched my clothes? 31 And his disciples said unto him,
Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou,
Who touched me? 32 And he looked round about to see her
that had done this thing. 33 But the woman fearing and
trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell
down before him, and told him all the truth. 34 And he said
unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in
peace, and be whole of thy plague. 35 While he yet spake, there came from the ruler of the
synagogue's house certain which said, Thy daughter is dead:
why troublest thou the Master any further? 36 As soon as
Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler
of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe. 37 And he
suffered no man to follow him, save Peter, and James, and
John the brother of James. 38 And he cometh to the house of
the ruler of the synagogue, and seeth the tumult, and them
that wept and wailed greatly. 39 And when he was come in,
he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? the
damsel is not dead, but sleepeth. 40 And they laughed him to
scorn. But when he had put them all out, he taketh the father
and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him,
and entereth in where the damsel was lying. 41 And he took
the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi;
which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise. 4 2
And straightway the damsel arose, and walked; for she was
of the age of twelve years. And they were astonished with a
great astonishment. 43 And he charged them straitly that no
man should know it; and commanded that something should
be given her to eat.
