Mark 5:28 In-Context

26 and had received many things of full many physicians, and had spended all her good, and was nothing amended [and had suffered many things of full many leeches, and spended all her things, and nothing profited], but was rather the worse,
27 when she had heard of Jesus, she came among the people behind, and touched his cloak. [when she had heard of Jesus, she came in the company behind, and touched his cloth.]
28 For she said, That if I [shall] touch yea his cloak [Soothly she said, For if I shall touch yea his cloth], I shall be safe.
29 And at once [And anon] the well of her blood was dried up, and she feeled in her body that she was healed of the sickness [and she feeled in the body that she was healed of the sickness].
30 And at once Jesus knew in himself the virtue that was gone out of him, and he turned to the people, and said [And anon Jesus knowing in himself the virtue that had gone out of him, he, turned to the company, saith], Who touched my clothes?
