25 A woman among them had a sickness for twelve years. She was bleeding all the time.

26 Many doctors tried to heal her. She spent all the money she had to pay them. She was not better, but was getting worse.

27 When she heard of Jesus, she came among the people behind him. Then she reached out and touched his clothes.

28 She said to herself, If only I touch his clothes, I will be well.

29 The bleeding stopped right away. She could feel that she was healed of her trouble.

30 Jesus knew right away that power to heal went out from him. He turned around among the people and said, Who touched my clothes?

31 But his disciples said to him, You see all these people pushing around you. Why do you ask, "Who touched me?"

32 He looked around to see who had done it.

33 The woman was afraid and trembled. She knew what had happened to her. She kneeled down in front of Jesus and told him the truth about herself.

34 He said to her, Daughter, you were healed because you believed. Go and do not be troubled. You are healed.
