⁴³And there was a certain woman, with a flow of blood for twelve years, who had paid out all her substance on physicians, and she was unable to be cured by any of them. ⁴⁴She approached him from behind, and she touched the hem of his garment.

For I know that power has gone out from me.” ⁴⁷Then the woman, upon seeing that she was not hidden, came forward, trembling, and she fell down before his feet. And she declared before all the people the reason that she had touched him, and how she had been immediately healed. ⁴⁸But he said to her: “Daughter, your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”

²⁰But this kind is not cast out, except through prayer and fasting.”

Do not trouble him.” ⁵⁰Then Jesus, upon hearing this word, replied to the father of the girl: “Do not be afraid. Only believe, and she will be saved.”
