While he was saying these things to them, behold, a ruler came in and knelt before him, saying, "My daughter has just died, but come and lay your hand on her, and she will live."And Jesus rose and followed him, with his disciples.And behold, a woman who had suffered from a discharge of blood for twelve years came up behind him and touched the fringe of his garment,for she said to herself, "If I only touch his garment, I will be made well."Jesus turned, and seeing her he said, "Take heart, daughter; your faith has made you well." And instantly the woman was made well.And when Jesus came to the ruler's house and saw the flute players and the crowd making a commotion,he said, "Go away, for the girl is not dead but sleeping." And they laughed at him.But when the crowd had been put outside, he went in and took her by the hand, and the girl arose.And the report of this went through all that district.And as Jesus passed on from there, two blind men followed him, crying aloud, "Have mercy on us, Son of David."When he entered the house, the blind men came to him, and Jesus said to them, "Do you believe that I am able to do this?" They said to him, "Yes, Lord."Then he touched their eyes, saying, "According to your faith be it done to you."And their eyes were opened. And Jesus sternly warned them, "See that no one knows about it."

And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of man had built.And the Lord said, "Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language, and this is only the beginning of what they will do. And nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them.Come, let us go down and there confuse their language, so that they may not understand one another's speech."So the Lord dispersed them from there over the face of all the earth, and they left off building the city.Therefore its name was called Babel, because there the Lord confused the language of all the earth. And from there the Lord dispersed them over the face of all the earth.
