Luke 8:43-48 New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)
43 Now there was a woman who had been suffering from haemorrhages for twelve years; and though she had spent all she had on physicians,[a] no one could cure her.
44 She came up behind him and touched the fringe of his clothes, and immediately her haemorrhage stopped.
45 Then Jesus asked, “Who touched me?” When all denied it, Peter[b] said, “Master, the crowds surround you and press in on you.”
46 But Jesus said, “Someone touched me; for I noticed that power had gone out from me.”
47 When the woman saw that she could not remain hidden, she came trembling; and falling down before him, she declared in the presence of all the people why she had touched him, and how she had been immediately healed.
48 He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace.”
