Gospel : Matthew 9:18-26

18 While he told these things to them, behold, a ruler came and worshipped him, saying, "My daughter has just died, but come and lay your hand on her, and she will live."

19 Jesus got up and followed him, as did his disciples.

20 Behold, a woman who had an issue of blood for twelve years came behind him, and touched the fringe† of his garment;

21 for she said within herself, "If I just touch his garment, I will be made well."

22 But Jesus, turning around and seeing her, said, "Daughter, cheer up! Your faith has made you well." And the woman was made well from that hour.

23 When Jesus came into the ruler's house, and saw the flute players, and the crowd in noisy disorder,

24 he said to them, "Make room, because the girl isn't dead, but sleeping."
They were ridiculing him.

25 But when the crowd was put out, he entered in, took her by the hand, and the girl arose.

26 The report of this went out into all that land.


†9:20: or, tassel

Hosea 2:14, 15b-16, 20-21 (NABRE 2:16, 17b-18, 21-22)

14 "Therefore behold, I will allure her,
and bring her into the wilderness,
and speak tenderly to her.

15b and she will respond there,
as in the days of her youth,
and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.

16 It will be in that day," says the LORD,
"that you will call me 'my husband,'
and no longer call me 'my master.'

20 I will even betroth you to me in faithfulness;
and you shall know the LORD.

21 It will happen in that day, I will respond," says the LORD,
"I will respond to the heavens,
and they will respond to the earth;
