Luke 8

Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

49 Ref While he is yet speaking, there doth come a certain one from the chief of the synagogue's `house', saying to him -- `Thy daughter hath died, harass not the Teacher;'

50 Ref and Jesus having heard, answered him, saying, `Be not afraid, only believe, and she shall be saved.'

51 Ref And having come to the house, he suffered no one to go in, except Peter, and James, and John, and the father of the child, and the mother;

52 Ref and they were all weeping, and beating themselves for her, and he said, `Weep not, she did not die, but doth sleep;

53 Ref and they were deriding him, knowing that she did die;

54 Ref and he having put all forth without, and having taken hold of her hand, called, saying, `Child, arise;'

55 Ref and her spirit came back, and she arose presently, and he directed that there be given to her to eat;

56 Ref and her parents were amazed, but he charged them to say to no one what was come to pass.
