Matthew 9:18-26
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
Jesus Raises a Girl After a Public Request, And Heals a Woman With a Secret Request
18 While He was speaking these things to them, behold— one [synagogue] official, having come, was prostrating-himself before Him, saying that “My daughter just-now came-to-an-end[a]. But having come, lay Your hand on her, and she will live”. 19 And having arisen, Jesus followed him, and [so did] His disciples. 20 And behold— a woman having-a-bloody-discharge[b] for twelve years, having approached from behind, touched the tassel of His garment. 21 For she was saying within herself, “If I only touch His garment, I will be restored[c]”. 22 But Jesus, having turned and having seen her, said, “Take-courage, daughter. Your faith has restored you”. And the woman was restored from that hour. 23 And Jesus, having come into the house of the official, and having seen the flute-players and the crowd being thrown-into-a-commotion[d], 24 was saying “Go away. For the little-girl did not die, but is sleeping”. And they were laughing-scornfully at Him. 25 But when the crowd was put out, having gone in, He took-hold-of her hand and the little girl arose. 26 And this news went out into that whole land.
