43 Now a woman who had the hemorrhage for twelve years, and had spent all her wealth for doctors, could not be healed by anybody. 44 She came near him from behind, and touched the edge of his cloak; and immediately her hemorrhage stopped. 45 And Jesus said, Who touched me? And when all of them denied it, Simon Peter and those who were with him said to him, Teacher, the crowds are troubling you and pressing on you, and yet you say, Who has touched me? 46 But he said, Some one has touched me, for I know that power has gone out of me. 47 When the woman saw that she could not deceive him, she came trembling, and fell down and worshipped him; and she said in the presence of all the people for what purpose she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately. 48 Jesus said to her, Have courage, my daughter; your faith has healed you; go in peace. 49 While he was still talking, there came a man from the house of the leader of the synagogue, and said to him, Your daughter has died, do not trouble the teacher. 50 Jesus heard it and said to the father of the girl, Do not be afraid, but only believe, and she will be restored to life. 51 Jesus came into the house, and he did not allow anyone to enter with him, except Simon and James and John, and the father and mother of the girl. 52 And all of them were weeping and mourning over her; but Jesus said, Do not weep, for she is not dead but asleep. 53 And they laughed at him, for they knew that she was dead. 54 Then he put everybody out, and held her by her hand, and called her, and said, Little girl, arise. 55 And her spirit returned, and she got up immediately; and he commanded to give her something to eat. 56 And her parents were amazed; but he warned them, not to tell any man what had happened.
