Mark 5:22-43
One of the synagogue leaders, named Jairus, came, and when he saw Jesus, he fell at his feetand begged him earnestly,“ My little daughter is dying. Come and lay your hands on her so that she can get well and live.”So Jesus went with him, and a large crowd was following and pressing against him.Now a woman suffering from bleeding for twelve yearshad endured much under many doctors. She had spent everything she had and was not helped at all. On the contrary, she became worse.Having heard about Jesus, she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his clothing.For she said,“ If I just touch his clothes, I’ll be made well.”Instantly her flow of blood ceased, and she sensed in her body that she was healed of her affliction.Immediately Jesus realized that power had gone out from him. He turned around in the crowd and said,“ Who touched my clothes?”His disciples said to him,“ You see the crowd pressing against you, and yet you say,‘ Who touched me?’”But he was looking around to see who had done this.The woman, with fear and trembling, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell down before him, and told him the whole truth.“ Daughter,” he said to her,“ your faith has saved you. Go in peace and be healed from your affliction.”While he was still speaking, people came from the synagogue leader’s house and said,“ Your daughter is dead. Why bother the teacher anymore?”When Jesus overheard what was said, he told the synagogue leader,“ Don’t be afraid. Only believe.”He did not let anyone accompany him except Peter, James, and John, James’s brother.They came to the leader’s house, and he saw a commotion— people weeping and wailing loudly.He went in and said to them,“ Why are you making a commotion and weeping? The child is not dead but asleep.”They laughed at him, but he put them all outside. He took the child’s father, mother, and those who were with him, and entered the place where the child was.Then he took the child by the hand and said to her,“ Talitha koum”( which is translated,“ Little girl, I say to you, get up”).Immediately the girl got up and began to walk.( She was twelve years old.) At this they were utterly astounded.Then he gave them strict orders that no one should know about this and told them to give her something to eat.
