Luke 8:50-52
New English Translation

50 But when Jesus heard this, he told[a] him, “Do not be afraid; just believe, and she will be healed.”[b] 51 Now when he came to the house, Jesus[c] did not let anyone go in with him except Peter, John,[d] and James, and the child’s father and mother. 52 Now they were all[e] wailing and mourning[f] for her, but he said, “Stop your weeping; she is not dead but asleep!”

Footnotes

  1. Luke 8:50 tn Grk “answered.”
  2. Luke 8:50 tn Or “will be delivered”; Grk “will be saved.” This should not be understood as an expression for full salvation in the immediate context; it refers only to the girl’s healing.
  3. Luke 8:51 tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  4. Luke 8:51 tn Grk “and John,” but καί (kai) has not been translated since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.
  5. Luke 8:52 sn This group probably includes outside or even professional mourners, not just family, because a large group seems to be present.
  6. Luke 8:52 tn Grk “beating the breasts” (in mourning); see L&N 52.1.
