*
While he was still speaking ,
there came from the ruler '
s house some who said , "
Your daughter is dead .
Why trouble the Teacher any further ?"
*
But ignoring what they said ,
Jesus said to the ruler of the synagogue , "
Do not fear ,
only believe ."
*
And he allowed no one to follow him except Peter and James and John the brother of James .
*
When they came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue ,
he saw a tumult ,
and people weeping and wailing loudly .
*
And when he had entered ,
he said to them , "
Why do you make a tumult and weep ?
The child is not dead but sleeping ."
*
And they laughed at him .
But he 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 .
*
Taking her by the hand he said to her , "
Tal '
itha cu '
mi ";
which means , "
Little girl ,
I say to you ,
arise ."
*
And immediately the girl got up and walked (
she was twelve years of age ),
and they were immediately overcome with amazement .
*
And he strictly charged them that no one should know this ,
and told them to give her something to eat .
