Luke 8:40-56 — Jesus Raises a Dead Girl and Heals a Sick Woman

Luke.8.40-56

⁴⁰Now when Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed him, for they were all expecting him. ⁴¹And behold, a man named Jairus came, and he was a synagogue leader. And falling at Jesus' feet, he begged him to come to his house, ⁴²because he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was dying. Now as he went, the crowds were pressing against him. ⁴³And a woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years, who could not be healed by anyone , ⁴⁴came up behind him and touched the fringe of his cloak, and immediately her flow of blood stopped. ⁴⁵And Jesus said, “Who touched me?” When everyone denied it, Peter said , “Master, the crowds are surrounding you and pressing against you .” ⁴⁶But Jesus said, “Someone touched me, for I know that power has gone out from me.” ⁴⁷Then the woman, seeing that she had not escaped notice, came trembling and fell down before him. She declared in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately. ⁴⁸And he said to her, “Daughter, your faith has saved you; go in peace.” ⁴⁹While he was still speaking, someone came from the house of the synagogue leader, saying, “Your daughter is dead; do not bother the Teacher anymore.” ⁵⁰But Jesus, hearing this, answered him, “Stop fearing; only believe, and she will be saved.” ⁵¹When he came to the house, he did not allow anyone to enter with him, except Peter and John and James, and the father of the child and the mother. ⁵²Now all were weeping and mourning for her, but he said, “Do not weep, for she did not die, but is sleeping.” ⁵³And they laughed at him, knowing that she had died. ⁵⁴But taking her by the hand , he called out, saying, “Child, get up.” ⁵⁵And her spirit returned, and she got up immediately, and he directed that something be given to her to eat. ⁵⁶And her parents were astonished, but he ordered them to tell no one what had happened.
