{35} While he yet spoke, there came from the ruler of the
synagogue's house certain which said, Your daughter is dead: why
trouble the Master any further? {36} As soon as Jesus heard the
word that was spoken, he said unto the ruler of the synagogue,
Be not afraid, only believe. {37} And he permitted no man to
follow him, save Peter, and James, and John the brother of
James. {38} And he came to the house of the ruler of the
synagogue, and saw the tumult, and them that wept and wailed
greatly. {39} And when he went in, he said unto them, Why make you
this ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleeping. {40} And
they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he
took the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that
were with him, and entered in where the damsel was lying. {41} And
he took the damsel by the hand, and said to her, Talitha cumi;
which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto you, arise. {42}
And straightway the damsel arose, and walked; for she was of the
age of twelve years. And they were astonished with a great
astonishment. {43} And he charged them straitly that no man should
know it; and commanded that something should be given her to eat.

5:35-43-----------------------------------------------------------------
{49} While he yet spoke, there came one from the ruler of the
synagogue's house, saying to him, Your daughter is dead; trouble
not the Master. {50} But when Jesus heard it, he answered him,
saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole. {51}
And when he came into the house, he peremitted no man to go in,
save Peter, and James, and John, and the father and the mother of
the maiden.{52} And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep
not; she is not dead, but sleeping. {53} And they laughed him to
scorn, knowing that she was dead. {54} And he put them all out,
and took her by the hand, and called, saying, Maid, arise. {55}
And her spirit came again, and she arose straightway: and he
commanded to give her food. {56} And her parents were astonished:
but he charged them that they should tell no man what was done.

{23} And when Jesus came into the ruler's house, and saw the
minstrels (professional mourners) and the people making a noise,
{24} He said to them, Give place: for the maid is not dead, but
sleeping. And they laughed him to scorn. {25} But when the people
were put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand, and the maid
arose. {26} And the fame of this miracle went abroad into all that
land. Matthew 9: 23-26
