A dignitary came and prostrated himself before him, saying: My daughter has just died; But come and put your hand on her, and she will live. Jesus got up and followed him with his disciples. In this, a woman sick with an issue of blood [for twelve years approached him from behind her and touched the edge of her mantle, because she said to herself: “Just by touching her mantle, I will be save. But Jesus, turning from her and looking at her, said: Be of good cheer, daughter; your faith has saved you . When Jesus entered the dignitary’s house and he saw those who played flutes and the people who were making a commotion, he told them: “Depart, because the girl is not dead, but she is sleeping.” And they made fun of Him. But when the people were thrown out, He went in and took the girl by the hand, and she got up. And this news spread throughout all that land.
