Matthew 9:18-38

[18] While he  spake  unto them,  behold,  there came  a certain  ruler,  and worshipped  him,  saying,  daughter  is even now  dead:  but  come  and lay  hand  upon  her,  and  she shall live.  [19] And  Jesus  arose,  and followed  him,  and  so did his  disciples.  [20] And,  behold,  a woman,  which was diseased with an issue of blood  twelve  years,  came  behind  him, and touched  the hem  of his  garment:  [21] For  within  herself,  If  but  touch  his  garment,  I shall be whole.  [22] But  Jesus  and  her,  he said,  Daughter,  be of good comfort;  faith  whole.  And  the woman  was made whole  from  that  hour.  [23] And  when Jesus  came  into  the ruler's  house,  and  the minstrels  and  the people  making a noise,  [24] unto them,  Give place:  for  the maid  not  dead,  but  sleepeth.  And  him  to scorn.  [25] But  when  the people  were put forth,  he went in,  and took  her  by the hand,  and  the maid  arose.  [26] And  the fame  hereof  went abroad  into  all  that  land.  [27] And  when Jesus  departed  thence,  two  blind men  followed  him,  crying,  and  saying,  Thou Son  of David,  have mercy  [28] And  when he was come  into  the house,  the blind men  came  to him:  and  Jesus  saith  unto them,  Believe ye  that  I am able  to do  They said  unto him,  Yea,  Lord.  [29] Then  touched he  their  eyes,  saying,  According  faith  be it  [30] And  their  eyes  were opened;  and  Jesus  straitly charged  them,  saying,  See  that no man  know  [31] But  they, when they were departed,  his  fame  in  all  that  country.  [32] As  they  went out,  behold,  they brought  to him  a dumb  man  possessed with a devil.  [33] And  when the devil  was cast out,  the dumb  spake:  and  the multitudes  marvelled,  saying,  It was never  so  seen  in  Israel.  [34] But  the Pharisees  He casteth out  devils  through  the prince  of the devils.  [35] And  Jesus  went about  all  the cities  and  villages,  teaching  in  their  synagogues,  and  preaching  the gospel  of the kingdom,  and  healing  every  sickness  and  every  disease  among  [36] But  the multitudes,  he was moved with compassion  on  them,  because  and  were scattered abroad,  as  sheep  having  no  shepherd.  [37] Then  saith  he unto his  disciples,  The harvest  truly  is plenteous,  but  the labourers  are few;  [38] Pray ye  therefore  the Lord  of the harvest,  that  he will send forth  labourers  into  his  harvest.
