And when
Jesus had crossed again in the boat to the other side, a great crowd gathered
about him, and he was beside the sea. 22 Then came one of the rulers of the
synagogue, Jairus by name, and seeing him, he fell at his feet 23 and implored
him earnestly, saying, “My little daughter is at the point of death. Come and
lay your hands on her, so that she may be made well and live.” 24 And he went
with him. And a great crowd followed him and thronged about him.
35 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?” 36 But overhearing [e] what they said, Jesus said to
the ruler of the synagogue, “Do not fear, only believe.” 37 And he allowed no
one to follow him except Peter and James and John the brother of James. 38 They
came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and Jesus [f] saw
a commotion, people weeping and wailing loudly. 39 And when he had entered, he
said to them, “Why are you making a commotion and weeping? The child is not
dead but sleeping.” 40 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. 41 Taking her by the hand he said to her, “Talitha cumi,”
which means, “Little girl, I say to you, 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 he strictly charged them that no
one should know this, and told them to give her something to eat.
