22 And {behold} there comes one of the rulers of the synagogue, by name Jairus, and seeing him, falls down at his feet;

23 and he besought him much, saying, My little daughter is at extremity; {I pray} that thou shouldest come and lay thy hands upon her so that she may be healed, and may live.

24 And he went with him, and a large crowd followed him and pressed on him.
