40 When Jesus returned to the other side of the lake, the people welcomed him, because they had all been waiting for him.
41 Then a man named Jairus arrived; he was an official in the local synagogue. He threw himself down at Jesus' feet and begged him to go to his home,
42 because his only daughter, who was twelve years old, was dying.As Jesus went along, the people were crowding him from every side.
43 Among them was a woman who had suffered from severe bleeding for twelve years; she had spent all she had on doctors, but no one had been able to cure her.
44 She came up in the crowd behind Jesus and touched the edge of his cloak, and her bleeding stopped at once.
45 Jesus asked, “Who touched me?”Everyone denied it, and Peter said, “Master, the people are all round you and crowding in on you.”
46 But Jesus said, “Someone touched me, for I knew it when power went out of me.”
