And here they brought to him a paralytic lying on a bed. When Jesus saw their faith he said to the paralytic, "Courage, son, your sins are forgiven."

As he was saying these words to them, a ruler came up and knelt before him, saying. "My daughter has just died; but come, put your hand upon her, and she will live."

But Jesus turned and saw her and said, "Be of good courage, daughter, your faith has healed you." And the woman was healed from that hour.

When, however, the crowd had been driven out, he went in and took her hand, and the little girl woke up.

"For I came to set "a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law;

So, prompted by her mother, the girl said, "Give me at once, upon a dish, the head of John the Baptist."

The king was displeased because of this, but because of his oaths and his guests he ordered it to be given her.

the head was brought on a dish, and given to the young girl, who took it to her mother.

"We have nothing here," they replied, "except five loaves and two fishes."

"Bring them here to me," said Jesus.

But he answered her not a word. Then the disciples came up and kept beseeching him. "Send her away," they said, "because she wails after us."

Then Jesus answered her. "O woman, great is your faith. It shall be for you even as you desire." And from that hour her daughter was healed.

"Moreover I say to you that you are Petros (a rock), and on this petra (rock) I will build my church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against her.
