Mt 9:19: And Jesus arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples.

Mt 9:20: And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment:

Mt 9:21: For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole.

Mt 9:22: But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.

Mt 9:23: And when Jesus came into the ruler's house, and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise,

Mt 9:24: He said unto them, Give place: for the maid is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn.

Mt 9:25: But when the people were put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand, and the maid arose.

Mt 9:26: And the fame hereof went abroad into all that land.
