Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

SOTN SIL Open Translation Notes:

Section 8:40–56: Jesus healed a sick woman and caused a dead girl to live again

This section tells about two miracles that Jesus did. He healed a woman who had a sickness that caused her to have chronic menstrual bleeding. The story about this woman is told in the middle of the story about a dead girl whom Jesus caused to live again. The situation was hopeless for both until Jesus miraculously helped them. His miracles showed the special power and authority that God had given to him as the Messiah.

These stories include the concept of uncleanness, just as in the story of the healing of the man with a “legion” of unclean spirits. Here, the woman was unclean according to the law of Moses because of the bleeding that was caused by her sickness. The dead body of Jairus’ daughter was also ritually unclean. But in spite of this, Jesus touched both of them. Jesus did not become unclean himself when he touched them. Instead, he made them ritually clean by making them well.

Another important theme in this section is faith. Jesus said that the woman who was bleeding was healed because she believed that Jesus could heal her. Then he encouraged Jairus to keep believing that God could make his daughter well, even after she had died.

It is good to translate this section before you decide on a heading for it. Some other possible headings for this section are:

Jesus cured a woman with chronic bleeding and gave life to a dead girl

The child of Jairus and the woman who touched the border/edge of Jesus’ clothing

A Dead Girl and a Sick Woman (NIV)

There are parallel passages for this section in Matthew 9:18–26 and Mark 5:21–43.

8:48a

“Daughter,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you.

He told the woman, “Daughter/Sister, you^(sing) are well now because you trusted in me.
Jesus said to her, “Dear woman, because you^(sing) had confidence that I could heal you, you have become well.
Jesus spoke kindly to the woman. He said, “The reason you^(sing) have been healed is because of your faith.

Daughter: Jesus called the woman Daughter to show his kind concern for her and so to reassure her. Daughter was an appropriate term for a teacher like Jesus to use to speak kindly to a woman.

The word Daughter does not imply here that the woman was literally Jesus’ daughter. It also does not imply that she was much younger than Jesus. The text does not indicate whether she was younger or older. In some languages it may not be natural to use a word such as Daughter here, or it may imply a wrong meaning. Use an appropriate term in your language for this context.

your faith has healed you: The noun faith refers here to the action of believing and trusting Jesus. The phrase your faith has healed you implies that the woman believed that Jesus would heal her. In some languages it may be more natural to translate faith as a verb. If that is true in your language, you may also need to make explicit who or what was believed. Some ways to translate this are:

You trusted in me and that has healed you.

You are well because you believed that I could heal you.

See believe, Meaning 2, in the Glossary.

has healed you: The form of the Greek verb here implies that the woman was healed in the past, when she touched Jesus’ clothes. She was now well. Use the appropriate verb form in your language for this.

healed: The Greek word that the BSB translates as healed is the same word that is commonly used in the Bible to mean “saved, rescued.” In this context, it means “saved/rescued from illness” or “healed.” If you have an expression that could be used for both “rescue from sins” and “rescue from an illness,” consider using it here.

8:48b

Go in peace.”

Go^(sing), and may God’s peace be with you.”
You^(sing) may return to your home with the peace that comes from God.”

Go in peace: The phrase Go in peace was a common blessing that a Jewish person gave to someone who was leaving. This blessing means “may you go with peace.” To Jewish people it strongly implies that God is the one who gives that peace. Jesus used this blessing here to reassure the woman. Other ways to say this are:

Go and may God continue to give you his peace

You may go home now with the blessing of God’s peace

Go and may the peace of God rest upon you

You may go home now, knowing that you are at peace with God

This same expression occurs in 7:50b. See also peace, Meaning 6, in the Glossary.

the faith (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ὁ Δέ εἶπεν αὐτῇ Θύγατερ ἡ πίστις σοῦ σέσωκεν σέ πορεύου εἰς εἰρήνην)
