Luke 8:40-48

Christian Standard Bible

A Girl Restored and a Woman Healed

⁴⁰ When Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed him,^(A) for they were all expecting him.^{(B) 41} Just then, a man named Jairus came. He was a leader of the synagogue.^(C) He fell down at Jesus’s feet and pleaded with him to come to his house, ⁴² because he had an only daughter^(D) about twelve years old, and she was dying.

While he was going, the crowds were nearly crushing him.^{(E) 43} A woman suffering from bleeding^(F) for twelve years,^(G) who had spent all she had on doctors^[a] and yet could not be healed by any, ⁴⁴ approached from behind and touched the end of his robe.^(H) Instantly her bleeding stopped.

⁴⁵ “Who touched me?” Jesus asked.

When they all denied it, Peter^[b] said, “Master,^(I) the crowds are hemming you in and pressing against you.”^[c]

⁴⁶ “Someone did touch me,” said Jesus. “I know that power has gone out from me.”^{(J) 47} When the woman saw that she was discovered, she came trembling and fell down before him. In the presence of all the people, she declared the reason she had touched him and how she was instantly healed. ⁴⁸ “Daughter,” he said to her, “your faith has saved you.^[d] Go in peace.”^(K)
