22 Jesus turned and saw the woman. He said, “Be happy, dear woman. You are made well because you believed.” Then the woman was healed.
23 Jesus continued going with the Jewish leader and went into the leader’s house. He saw people there who make music for funerals. And he saw a crowd of people crying loudly.
24 Jesus said, “Go away. The girl is not dead. She is only sleeping.” But the people laughed at him.
25 After the people were put out of the house, Jesus went into the girl’s room. He held the girl’s hand, and the girl stood up.
26 The news about this spread all around the area.
27 As Jesus was going away from there, two blind men followed him. They said loudly, “Show kindness to us, Son of David.”
28 Jesus went inside, and the blind men went with him. He asked them, “Do you believe that I am able to make you see again?” They answered, “Yes, Lord, we believe.”
