“9:18. As he was speaking these things unto them, behold a certain ruler

came up, and adored him, saying: Lord, my daughter is even now dead;

but come, lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.

“9:19. And Jesus rising up followed him, with his disciples.

9:20. And behold a woman who was troubled with an issue of blood twelve

years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment.

9:21. For she said within herself: If I shall touch only his garment, I

shall be healed.

9:22. But Jesus turning and seeing her, said: Be of good heart,

daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole

from that hour.

9:23. And when Jesus was come into the house of the ruler, and saw the

minstrels and the multitude making a rout,

9:24. He said: Give place, for the girl is not dead, but sleepeth. And

they laughed him to scorn.

9:25. And when the multitude was put forth, he went in, and took her by

the hand. And the maid arose.

9:26. And the fame hereof went abroad into all that country.”
