30 (NIV) At once Jesus
realized that power had gone out from him. He turned around
in the crowd and asked, "Who touched my clothes?"
31 "You see the people crowding against you," his
disciples answered, "and yet you can ask, `Who touched me?'" 32
But Jesus kept looking around to see who had done it. 33
Then the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came
and fell at his feet and, tremb-ling with fear, told him
the whole truth. 34 He said to her, "Daughter, your faith
has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your
suffering." 35 While Jesus was still speak-ing, some men came from
the house of Jairus, the syna-gogue ruler. "Your
daughter is dead," they said. "Why bother the teacher any more?Ò36
Ignoring what they said, Jesus told the synagogue ruler,
"Don't be afraid; just believe."
