18:9And it happened that Absalom met he servants of David, riding on a mule: and as the mule went under a thick and large oak, his head stuck in the oak: and while he hung between the heaven and he earth, the mule on which he rode passed on.

10And one saw this and told Joab, saying: I saw Absalom hanging upon an oak.

14And Joab said: Not as you will, but will set upon him in your sight. So he took three lances in his hand, and thrust them into the heart of Absalom: and whilst he yet panted for life, sticking on the oak,

24And David sat between the two gates: and the watchman that was on the top of the gate upon the wall, lifting up his eyes, saw a man running alone.

25And crying out he told the king: and the king said: If he be alone, there are good news in his mouth. And as he was coming apace, and drawing nearer,

86:1A prayer for David himself. Incline your ear, O Lord, and hear me: for I am needy and poor.

2Preserve my soul, for I am holy: save your servant, O my God, that trusteth in you.

3Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I have cried to you all the day.

4Give joy to the soul of your servant, for to you, O Lord, I have lifted up my soul.

5For you, O Lord, art sweet and mild: and plenteous in mercy to all that call upon you.

6Give ear, O Lord, to my prayer: and attend to the voice of my petition.

5:21And when Jesus had passed again in the ship over the narrow, a great crowd assembled together to him, and he was nigh to the sea.

22And there comes one of the rulers of the synagogue named Jairus: and seeing him, falleth down at his feet.

23And he besought him much, saying: My daughter is at the point of death, come, lay your hand upon her, that she may be safe, and may live.

24And he went with him, and a great crowd followed him, and they thronged him.

25And a woman who was under an issue of blood twelve years,

26And had suffered many things from many physicians; and had spent all that she had, and was nothing the better, but rather worse,

27When she had heard of Jesus, came in the crowd behind him, and touched his clothing.

28For she said: If I shall touch but his clothing, I shall be whole.

29And forthwith the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of the evil.

30And immediately Jesus knowing in himself the virtue that had proceeded from him, turning to the crowd, said: Who has touched my garments?

31And his disciples said to him: You seest the crowd thronging you, and sayest you who has touched me?

32And he looked about to see her who had done this.

33But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.

34And he said to her: Daughter, your faith has made you whole: go in peace, and be you whole of your disease.

35While he was yet speaking, some come from the ruler of the synagogue's house, saying: Your daughter is dead: why do you trouble the master any further?

36But Jesus having heard the word that was said, says to the ruler of the synagogue: Fear not, only believe.

37And he admitted not any man to follow him, but Peter, and James, and John the brother of James.

38And they come to the house of the ruler of the synagogue; and he sees a tumult, and people weeping and wailing much.

39And going in, he says to them: Why make you this ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth.

40And they laughed him to scorn. But he having put them all out, takes the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying.

41And taking the damsel by the hand, he says to her: Talitha cumi, which is, being interpreted: Damsel (I say to you) arise.

42And immediately the damsel rose up, and walked: and she was twelve years old: and they were astonished with a great astonishment.

43And he charged them strictly that no man should know it: and commanded that something should be given her to eat.
