35 While yet he is speaking, they come from the synagogue-rulers, sayingThy daughter, is dead! Why, further, annoy the teacher?36 But, Jesus, overhearing the word being spoken, saith unto the synagogue-rulerDo not fear, only have faith!37 And he suffered no one to follow with him, save Peter and James and John the brother of James.38 And they come into the house of the synagogue-ruler, and he observeth a tumult, and persons weeping and wailing greatly;39 and, entering, he saith unto themWhy are ye making a tumult, and weeping? The child, is, not dead, but, is sleeping;40 and they were deriding him. But, he, thrusting all forth, taketh with him the father of the child, and the mother, and them who were with him,and entereth where the child was;41 and, grasping the hand of the child, he saith unto herTalitha, koum! which is, when translatedO damsel! to thee, I say, Arise!42 And, straightway, the damsel arose, and was walking about; for she was twelve years of age. And they were beside themselves, straightway, with a great transport;43 and he commanded them, again and again, that, no one, should get to know this thing,and bade that food should be given her to eat.
