52And everyone was weeping and lamenting her; but He said, “Don’t weep, for she didn’t die but is sleeping.” 53But they were ridiculing Him, knowing she had died. But Yeshua, took her by the hand and called out, saying, “Child, get up!” 55Her spirit returned, and she arose immediately. Yeshua ordered food to be given to her to eat. 56Her parents were utterly astonished, but He ordered them to say nothing of what had happened.
