While Jesus was still speaking, someone came from the house of the synagogue leader and said, “Your daughter has died! Don’t bother the Teacher anymore.” Jesus heard this and said to Jairus, “Don’t be afraid! Just believe and your daughter will be well.”
Everyone was crying and feeling sad because the girl was dead. But Jesus said, “Don’t cry. She is not dead. She is only sleeping.” The people laughed at him, because they knew that the girl was dead. But Jesus held her hand and called to her, “Little girl, stand up!” Her spirit came back into her, and she stood up immediately. Jesus said, “Give her something to eat.” (Luke 8:49-50, 52-55 ERV)
