on the Scriptures Together
Mark
5:21-43
[21]
And when Jesus had crossed again in the boat to the other side, a
great crowd gathered about him, and he was beside the sea. [22] Then
came one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name, and seeing
him, he fell at his feet [23] and implored him earnestly, saying, “My
little daughter is at the point of death. Come and lay your hands on
her, so that she may be made well and live.” [24] And he went with
him.
And
a great crowd followed him and thronged about him. [25] And there was
a woman who had had a discharge of blood for twelve years, [26] and
who had suffered much under many physicians, and had spent all that
she had, and was no better but rather grew worse. [27] She had heard
the reports about Jesus and came up behind him in the crowd and
touched his garment. [28] For she said, “If I touch even his
garments, I will be made well.” [29] And immediately the flow of
blood dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of her
disease. [30] And Jesus, perceiving in himself that power had gone
out from him, immediately turned about in the crowd and said, “Who
touched my garments?” [31] And his disciples said to him, “You
see the crowd pressing around you, and yet you say, ‘Who touched
me?’” [32] And he looked around to see who had done it. [33] But
the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came in fear and
trembling and fell down before him and told him the whole truth. [34]
And he said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in
peace, and be healed of your disease.”
[35]
While he was still speaking, there came from the ruler's house some
who said, “Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Teacher any
further?” [36] But overhearing what they said, Jesus said to the
ruler of the synagogue, “Do not fear, only believe.” [37] And he
allowed no one to follow him except Peter and James and John the
brother of James. [38] They came to the house of the ruler of the
synagogue, and Jesus saw a commotion, people weeping and wailing
loudly. [39] And when he had entered, he said to them, “Why are you
making a commotion and weeping? The child is not dead but sleeping.”
[40] And they laughed at him. But he put them all outside and took
the child's father and mother and those who were with him and went in
where the child was. [41] Taking her by the hand he said to her,
“Talitha cumi,” which means, “Little girl, I say to you,
arise.” [42] And immediately the girl got up and began walking (for
she was twelve years of age), and they were immediately overcome with
amazement. [43] And he strictly charged them that no one should know
this, and told them to give her something to eat.

Corinthians 1:8-11
[8]
For we do not want you to be unaware, brothers, of the affliction we
experienced in Asia. For we were so utterly burdened beyond our
strength that we despaired of life itself. [9] Indeed, we felt that
we had received the sentence of death. But that was to make us rely
not on ourselves but on God who raises the dead. [10] He delivered us
from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us. On him we have set
our hope that he will deliver us again. [11] You also must help us by
prayer, so that many will give thanks on our behalf for the blessing
granted us through the prayers of many.
