Mark 5:35–43

³⁵As he is yet speaking, there come from the chief of the synagogue’s house, certain, saying—‘Thy daughter did die, why still dost thou harass the Teacher?’ ³⁶And Jesus immediately, having heard the word that is spoken, saith to the chief of the synagogue, ‘Be not afraid, only believe.’ ³⁷And he did not suffer any one to follow with him, except Peter, and James, and John the brother of James; ³⁸and he cometh to the house of the chief of the synagogue, and seeth a tumult, much weeping and wailing; ³⁹and having gone in he saith to them, ‘Why do ye make a tumult, and weep? the child did not die, but doth sleep; ⁴⁰and they were laughing at him. And he, having put all forth, doth take the father of the child, and the mother, and those with him, and goeth in where the child is lying, ⁴¹and, having taken the hand of the child, he saith to her, ‘Talitha cumi;’ which is, being interpreted, ‘Damsel (I say to thee), arise.’ ⁴²And immediately the damsel arose, and was walking, for she was twelve years old; and they were amazed with a great amazement, ⁴³and he charged them much, that no one may know this thing, and he said that there be given to her to eat.
