And it came to passe, that when Iesus was returned, the people gladly receiued him: for they were all waiting for him.

And behold, there came a man named Iairus, and hee was a ruler of the Synagogue, and hee fell downe at Iesus feete, and besought him that hee would come into his house:

For hee had one onely daughter about twelue yeeres of age, and she lay a dying. (But as hee went the people thronged him.

And a woman hauing an issue of blood twelue yeres, which had spent all her liuing vpon Phisitions, neither could be healed of any,

Came behinde him, and touched the border of his garment: and immediatly her issue of blood stanched.

And Iesus saide, Who touched mee? When all denied, Peter and they that were with him, said, Master, the multitude throng thee, and preasse thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?

And Iesus saide, Some body hath touched mee: for I perceiue that vertue is gone out of me.

And when the woman saw that she was not hid, shee came trembling, and falling downe before him, shee declared vnto him before all the people, for what cause shee had touched him, and how she was healed immediatly.

And he said vnto her, Daughter, be of good comfort, thy faith hath made thee whole, goe in peace.)

While hee yet spake, there commeth one from the ruler of the Synagogues house, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead, trouble not the Master.

But when Iesus heard it, he answered him, saying, Feare not, beleeue onely, and she shalbe made whole.

And when hee came into the house, hee suffered no man to goe in, saue Peter, and Iames, and Iohn, and the father and the mother of the mayden.

And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weepe not, she is not dead, but sleepeth.

And they laughed him to scorne, knowing that she was dead.

And hee put them all out, and tooke her by the hand, and called, saying, Mayd, arise.

And her spirit came againe, and shee arose straightway: and hee commanded to giue her meat.

And her parents were astonished: but hee charged them that they should tell no man what was done.
