Matthew 9:14-24

14 Next, Yochanan's talmidim came to him and asked, "Why is it that we and the P'rushim fast frequently, but your talmidim don't fast at all?"
15 Yeshua said to them, "Can wedding guests mourn while the bridegroom is still with them? But the time will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them; then they will fast.
16 No one patches an old coat with a piece of unshrunk cloth, because the patch tears away from the coat and leaves a worse hole.
17 Nor do people put new wine in old wineskins; if they do, the skins burst, the wine spills and the wineskins are ruined. No, they pour new wine into freshly prepared wineskins, and in this way both are preserved."
18 While he was talking, an official came in, kneeled down in front of him and said, "My daughter has just died. But if you come and lay your hand on her, she will live."
19 Yeshua, with his talmidim, got up and followed him.
20 A woman who had had a hemorrhage for twelve years approached him from behind and touched the tzitzit on his robe.
21 For she said to herself, "If I can only touch his robe, I will be healed."
22 Yeshua turned, saw her and said, "Courage, daughter! Your trust has healed you." And she was instantly healed.
23 When Yeshua arrived at the official's house and saw the flute-players, and the crowd in an uproar,
24 he said, "Everybody out! The girl isn't dead, she's only sleeping!" And they jeered at him.
