Mark 5:35-54

Jesus Heals a Woman and Jairus's Daughter

35 While he was still speaking, there came from q the ruler's house some who said, "Your daughter is dead. Why r trouble s the Teacher any further?" 36 But overhearing 1 what they said, Jesus said to q the ruler of the synagogue, "Do not fear, only believe." 37 And he allowed no one to follow him except t Peter and James and u John the brother of James. 38 They came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and Jesus 2 saw a commotion, people weeping and wailing loudly. 39 And when he had entered, he said to them, v "Why are you making a commotion and weeping? The child is not dead but w sleeping." 40 And they laughed at him. But he x put them all outside and took the child's father and mother and those who were with him and went in where the child was. 41 y Taking her by the hand he said to her, "Talitha cumi," which means, "Little girl, I say to you, z arise." 42 And immediately the girl got up and began walking (for she was twelve years of age), and they were immediately overcome with amazement. 43 And a he strictly charged them that no one should know this, and told them to give her something to eat.
