Rhyming Redsong: Matthew 9.18-26 (Jesus raises a dead girl and heals a sick woman)

While he was saying this, a leader came,
one of the synagogue’s, him, knelt, before,
and said, “My daughter just has died this day,
but come and if you put your hand on her,
then she will live.” Then Jesus rose and went
with him, and his disciples also joined.

A woman who, to bleeding, subject, been,
had for twelve years, just then came up behind
him and his cloak, she touched its edge. Said she,
herself, to, “If, his cloak, I simply graze,
I will be healed.” Turned, Jesus, and her, seen.
“My daughter, take heart,” he said, “for your faith
has healed you.” At that moment, she was healed.

When Jesus entered to the leader’s house,
the synagogue’s, and saw the noisy crowd
and people playing pipes, this, what he said,
“Now go away. This girl, she is not dead
but rather is asleep.” But they all laughed
at him. Then after they’d been put outside,
the crowd, he went in and took the girl by
the hand, and she got up. News of this spread
through that whole region, that he rose the dead.
