Luke 8:41–48

A Woman is Healed

Matt. 9:18–22; Mark 5:21–34

⁴¹ⁱAnd behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue. And he fell down at Jesus’ feet and begged Him to come to his house, ⁴²for he had an only daughter about twelve years of age, and she ^jwas dying.

But as He went, the multitudes thronged Him. ^43kNow a woman, having a ^lflow of blood for twelve years, who had spent all her livelihood on physicians and could not be healed by any, ⁴⁴came from behind and ^mtouched the border of His garment. And immediately her flow of blood stopped.

⁴⁵And Jesus said, “Who touched Me?”

When all denied it, Peter ⁶and those with him said, “Master, the multitudes throng and press You, ⁷and You say, ‘Who touched Me?’ ”

⁴⁶But Jesus said, “Somebody touched Me, for I perceived ⁿpower going out from Me.” ⁴⁷Now when the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling; and falling down before Him, she declared to Him in the presence of all the people the reason she had touched Him and how she was healed immediately.

⁴⁸And He said to her, “Daughter, ⁸be of good cheer; ^oyour faith has made you well. ^pGo in peace.”
