Context of Luke 8:50

48And he said to her, Daughter, be of good comfort: thy faith hath made thee well; go in peace. 49While he was yet speaking, there cometh one from the house of the ruler of the synagogue, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Master. But when Jesus heard it, he answered him, saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made well. 51And when he came into the house, he allowed no man to go in, except Peter, and James, and John, and the father and the mother of the maiden. 52And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth.
