52And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth. 53And they laughed at him, knowing that she was dead. And he put them all out, and took her by the hand, and called, saying, Maid, arise. 55And her spirit came again, and she arose immediately: and he commanded to give her something to eat. 56And her parents were astonished: but he charged them that they should tell no man what was done.
