31 And his disciples said to him, “You see the crowd pressing around you, and yet you say, ‘Who touched me?’ 32 And he looked around to see who had done it. 33 But the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came in fear and trembling and fell down before him and told him the whole truth. 34 And he said to her, “Daughter, (A)your faith has made you well; (B)go in peace, and be healed of your (C)disease.”

35 While he was still speaking, there came from (D)the ruler's house some who said, “Your daughter is dead. Why (E)trouble (F)the Teacher any further?” 36 But overhearing[a] what they said, Jesus said to (G)the ruler of the synagogue, “Do not fear, only believe.” 37 And he allowed no one to follow him except (H)Peter and James and (I)John the brother of James. 38 They came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and Jesus[b] saw a commotion, people weeping and wailing loudly. 39 And when he had entered, he said to them, (J)“Why are you making a commotion and weeping? The child is not dead but (K)sleeping.” 40 And they laughed at him. But he (L)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 (M)Taking her by the hand he said to her, “Talitha cumi,” which means, “Little girl, I say to you, (N)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 (O)he strictly charged them that no one should know this, and told them to give her something to eat.

31 “You see the people crowding against you,” his disciples answered, “and yet you can ask, ‘Who touched me?’

32 But Jesus kept looking around to see who had done it. 33 Then the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell at his feet and, trembling with fear, told him the whole truth. 34 He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has healed you.(A) Go in peace(B) and be freed from your suffering.”

35 While Jesus was still speaking, some people came from the house of Jairus, the synagogue leader.(C) “Your daughter is dead,” they said. “Why bother the teacher anymore?”

36 Overhearing[a] what they said, Jesus told him, “Don’t be afraid; just believe.”

37 He did not let anyone follow him except Peter, James and John the brother of James.(D) 38 When they came to the home of the synagogue leader,(E) Jesus saw a commotion, with people crying and wailing loudly. 39 He went in and said to them, “Why all this commotion and wailing? The child is not dead but asleep.”(F) 40 But they laughed at him.

After he put them all out, he took the child’s father and mother and the disciples who were with him, and went in where the child was. 41 He took her by the hand(G) and said to her, “Talitha koum!” (which means “Little girl, I say to you, get up!”).(H) 42 Immediately the girl stood up and began to walk around (she was twelve years old). At this they were completely astonished. 43 He gave strict orders not to let anyone know about this,(I) and told them to give her something to eat.
