38 And he comes to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and sees the tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly.

39 And when he was come in, he says unto them, Why make all of you this disturbance, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleeps.

40 And they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he takes the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and enters in where the damsel was lying.

41 And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto you, arise.

42 And immediately the damsel arose, and walked; for she was of the age of twelve years. And they were astonished with a great astonishment.
