38 They went home with Jairus and saw the people crying and making a lot of noise.
39 Then Jesus went inside and said to them, “Why are you crying and carrying on like this? The child isn't dead. She is just asleep.”
40 But the people laughed at him.After Jesus had sent them all out of the house, he took the girl's father and mother and his three disciples and went to where she was.
41-42 He took the twelve-year-old girl by the hand and said, “Talitha, koum!” which means, “Little girl, get up!” The girl got right up and started walking around.Everyone was greatly surprised.
43 But Jesus ordered them not to tell anyone what had happened. Then he said, “Give her something to eat.”
