Luke 8:49-56

49While He was still speaking, someone came from the house of 1the synagogue official, saying, “Your daughter has died; do not trouble the Teacher anymore.”

50But when Jesus heard this, He answered him, “2Do not be afraid any longer; only believe, and she will be 3made well.”

51When He came to the house, He did not allow anyone to enter with Him, except Peter and John and James, and the girl’s father and mother.

52Now they were all weeping and 4lamenting for her; but He said, “Stop weeping, for she has not died, but 5is asleep.”

53And they began laughing at Him, knowing that she had died.

54He, however, took her by the hand and called, saying, “Child, arise!”

55And her spirit returned, and she got up immediately; and He gave orders for something to be given her to eat.

56Her parents were amazed; but He 6instructed them to tell no one what had happened.
