Luke 8:40-42

New Testament for Everyone

Jairus’s daughter and the woman with chronic bleeding

⁴⁰ Jesus returned. A large crowd was waiting for him, and welcomed him back. ⁴¹ A man named Jairus, a ruler of the synagogue, came and fell down in front of his feet. He pleaded with him to come to his house, ⁴² because he had an only daughter, twelve years old, who was dying. So they set off, and the crowd pressed close in around him.
