18 WHILE he spake these words with them, a certain chief came, drew near, worshipped him, and said, My daughter is now dead; but come, lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live!19 And Jeshu arose, with his disciples, and went after him.20 And, behold, a woman whose blood had flowed twelve years, came behind him, and touched the edge of his vestment.21 For she was saying within herself, If I touch but his garment, I shall be healed.22 But Jeshu turned and seeth her, and said to her, Be comforted, my daughter, thy faith hath saved thee. And the woman was healed from that very hour.23 And Jeshu came to the ruler's house, and saw the minstrels and the crowds which were making a tumult.24 And he said to them, Retire; for the damsel is not dead, but asleep. And they laughed at him.25 And when he had put forth the crowds, he entered, and took her by the hand; and the damsel arose.26 And the rumour of this went forth through all that land.
