Mark 5:35-43

³⁵While He was still speaking, people *came from the house of the synagogue official, saying, “Your daughter has died; why bother the Teacher further?” ³⁶But Jesus, overhearing what was being spoken, *said to the synagogue official, “Do not be afraid, only believe.” ³⁷And He allowed no one to accompany Him except Peter, James, and John the brother of James. ³⁸They *came to the house of the synagogue official, and He *saw a commotion, and people loudly weeping and wailing. ³⁹And after entering, He *said to them, “Why are you making a commotion and weeping? The child has not died, but is asleep.” ⁴⁰And they began laughing at Him. But putting them all outside, He *took along the child’s father and mother and His own companions, and *entered the room where the child was in bed. ⁴¹And taking the child by the hand, He *said to her, “Talitha, kum!” (which translated means, “Little girl, I say to you, get up!”). ⁴²And immediately the girl got up and began to walk, for she was twelve years old. And immediately they were completely astonished. ⁴³And He gave them strict orders that no one was to know about this, and He told them to have something given her to eat.
