49 While he was still speaking, someone from ver. 41the ruler’s house came and said, "Your daughter is dead; ch. 7:6do not trouble See John 11:28the Teacher any more." 50 But Jesus on hearing this answered him, "Do not fear; only believe, and she will be well."51 And when he came to the house, he allowed no one to enter with him, except ch. 9:28;Mark 14:33Peter and Mark 3:17John and James, and the father and mother of the child. 52 And all were weeping and ch. 23:27;Matt. 11:17mourning for her, but he ch. 7:13said, "Do not weep, for [Acts 20:10] she is not dead but John 11:4,11sleeping."53 And they laughed at him, knowing that she was dead. 54 But See Mark 1:31taking her by the hand he called, saying, "Child, ch. 7:14,22;[Matt. 11:5;John 11:43]arise."55 And [Judg. 15:19;1 Sam. 30:12]her spirit returned, and she got up at once. And he directed that something should be given her to eat. 56 And her parents were amazed, but See Matt. 8:4he charged them to tell no one what had happened.
