51 When He entered the house, He did not allow anyone to go in with Him except Peter, John, James, and the child’s father and mother.

52 Meanwhile, everyone was weeping and mourning for her. But Jesus said, “Stop weeping; she is not dead but asleep.”

53 And they laughed at Him, knowing that she was dead.

54 But Jesus took her by the hand and called out, “Child, get up!”

55 Her spirit returned, and at once she got up. And He directed that she be given something to eat.
