Now the man out of whom the devils were departed besought him that he might be with him. But Jesus sent him away, saying:
39
Return to thy house and tell how great things God hath done to thee. And he went through the whole city, publishing how great things Jesus had done to him.
40
And it came to pass that when Jesus was returned, the multitude received him: for they were all waiting for him.
41
And behold there came a man whose name was Jairus: and he was a ruler of the synagogue. And he fell down at the feet of Jesus, beseeching him that he would come into his house:
42
For he had an only daughter, almost twelve years old, and she was dying. And it happened as he went that he was thronged by the multitudes.
43
And there was a certain woman having an issue of blood twelve years, who had bestowed all her substance on physicians and could not be healed by any.
44
She came behind him and touched the hem of his garment: and immediately the issue of her blood stopped.
45
And Jesus said: Who is it that touched me? And all denying, Peter and they that were with him said: Master, the multitudes throng and press thee; and dost thou say, who touched me?
46
And Jesus said: Somebody hath touched me; for I know that virtue is gone out from me.
47
And the woman seeing that she was not hid, came trembling and fell down before his feet and declared before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and how she was immediately healed.
48
But he said to her: Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole. Go thy way in peace.
