35 While he still spoke, they come from the synagogue ruler saying, Thy daughter died, why still trouble the teacher?36 But straightaway, Jesus, having heard the word spoken, says to the ruler of the synagogue, Fear not, only believe.37 And he allowed no man to accompany him except Peter, and James, and John the brother of James.38 And he comes to the house of the synagogue ruler, and sees a commotion, much weeping and wailing.39 And when he entered in, he says to them, Why do ye make a commotion, and weep? The child did not die, but sleeps.40 And they ridiculed him. But he, having put them all out, takes the father of the child and the mother and those with him, and enters in where the child was laying.41 And having taken the child's hand, he says to her, Talitha cumi. Which is, being interpreted, Little girl, I say to thee, awake.42 And straightaway the little girl rose up and walked, for she was twelve years old. And they were amazed with a great amazement.43 And he commanded them much that no man should know this. And he said to give her to eat.
