Mark 5:25–34

A sick woman touches Jesus' cloak and is healed

25And a woman who had had a flow of blood for twelve years,

26and who had suffered much under many doctors, and had spent all that she had, and had not been helped at all, but rather had grown worse,

27having heard about Jesus, came in the crowd from behind and touched his cloak;

28for she was saying, “If I touch even his garments, I will be made well.”

29And at once the source of her bleeding dried up, and she knew in her body that she was healed of the affliction.

30And at once Jesus, perceiving in himself that power had gone out from him, turned around in the crowd and was saying, “Who touched my garments?”

31And his disciples were saying to him, “You see the crowd pressing in on you, and you say, ‘Who touched me?’”

32And he was looking around to see the woman who had done this.

33But the woman, afraid and trembling, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell down before him and told him the whole truth.

34And he said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be healed of your affliction.”

23and begs him earnestly, saying, “My little daughter is at the point of death; come and lay your hands on her, so that she may be made well and live.”

24And he went away with him. And a large crowd was following him and pressing in on him.

…

35While he was still speaking, people come from the synagogue leader’s house, saying, “Your daughter has died; why trouble the Teacher any further?”

36But Jesus, ignoring the word being spoken, says to the synagogue leader, “Do not be afraid; only believe.”
