Marcos 5:21-43

21 Quando Jesus voltou de barco para a outra margem, uma grande multidão se reuniu ao seu redor, enquanto ele estava à beira do lago. 22 Então, chegou ali um dos líderes da sinagoga, chamado Jairo. Vendo Jesus, prostrou-se aos seus pés 23 e implorou-lhe insistentemente:

— A minha filhinha está morrendo! Vem, por favor, e impõe as mãos nela, para que seja curada e viva.

24 Então, Jesus foi com ele.

Uma grande multidão o seguia e o comprimia. 25 Havia ali uma mulher que padecia de hemorragia por doze anos. 26 Ela havia sofrido muito sob o cuidado de vários médicos e gastara tudo o que possuía, mas, em vez de melhorar, piorava. 27 Quando ouviu falar de Jesus, chegou por trás dele, no meio da multidão, e tocou no seu manto, 28 porque pensava: "Se eu apenas tocar no seu manto, serei curada". 29 Imediatamente, a hemorragia cessou, e ela percebeu no seu corpo que estava curada daquele mal.

30 No mesmo instante, Jesus percebeu que dele havia saído poder, virou-se para a multidão e perguntou:

— Quem tocou no meu manto?

31 Os seus discípulos responderam:

— Vês a multidão aglomerada ao teu redor e ainda perguntas: "Quem tocou em mim?".

32 Jesus, porém, continuou olhando ao redor para ver quem tinha feito aquilo. 33 A mulher, sabendo o que lhe tinha acontecido, aproximou-se, prostrou-se aos seus pés e, tremendo de medo, contou-lhe toda a verdade. 34 Então, ele lhe disse:

— Filha, a sua fé curou*5.34 Ou salvou. você! Vá em paz e fique livre do seu sofrimento.

35 Enquanto Jesus ainda falava, chegaram algumas pessoas da casa de Jairo, o líder da sinagoga, e disseram:

— A tua filha morreu. Por que ainda incomodas o Mestre?

36 Jesus, porém, ignorou essa notícia e disse ao líder da sinagoga:

— Não tenha medo; apenas creia.

37 Então, não deixou ninguém segui-lo, senão Pedro, Tiago e João, irmão de Tiago. 38 Quando chegaram à casa do líder da sinagoga, Jesus viu um alvoroço, com gente chorando e se lamentando em alta voz. 39 Então, entrou e lhes disse:

— Por que todo este alvoroço e lamento? A criança não está morta, mas dorme.

40 Todos começaram a rir dele. Ele, porém, ordenou que saíssem, tomou consigo o pai e a mãe da criança e os discípulos que o acompanhavam, e entrou onde se encontrava a criança. 41 Tomando-a pela mão, disse:

— Talita cum! — que significa: "Menina, eu ordeno a você: Levante-se!".

42 Imediatamente, a menina, que tinha doze anos de idade, levantou-se e começou a andar. Isso os deixou admirados. 43 Ele deu ordens expressas para que não dissessem nada a ninguém e mandou que dessem à menina alguma coisa para comer.

21 And when Jesus was passed over again by ship unto the other side, much people gathered unto him: and he was nigh unto the sea. 22 And, behold, there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name; and when he saw him, he fell at his feet, 23 And besought him greatly, saying, My little daughter lieth at the point of death: I pray thee, come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be healed; and she shall live. 24 And Jesus went with him; and much people followed him, and thronged him. 25 And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years, 26 And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse, 27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment. 28 For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole. 29 And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague. 30 And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes? 31 And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me? 32 And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing. 33 But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth. 34 And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague. 35 While he yet spake, there came from the ruler of the synagogue’s house certain which said, Thy daughter is dead: why troublest thou the Master any further? 36 As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe. 37 And he suffered no man to follow him, save Peter, and James, and John the brother of James. 38 And he cometh to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and seeth the tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly. 39 And when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth. 40 And they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying. 41 And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise. 42 And straightway the damsel arose, and walked; for she was of the age of twelve years. And they were astonished with a great astonishment. 43 And he charged them straitly that no man should know it; and commanded that something should be given her to eat.
