Luke 8:41-42
8:41 Then
a man named Jairus, who was a ruler
of the synagogue,
came up. Falling
at Jesus’ feet, he pleaded
with him to come to his house,
8:42 because he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was dying.
As Jesus was on his way, the crowds pressed around him.
Luke 8:49-55
8:49 While he was still speaking, someone from the synagogue ruler’s house came and said, “Your daughter is dead; do not trouble the teacher any longer.”
8:50 But when Jesus heard this, he told him, “Do not be afraid; just believe, and she will be healed.”
8:51 Now when he came to the house, Jesus did not let anyone go in with him except Peter, John, and James, and the child’s father and mother.
8:52 Now they were all wailing and mourning for her, but he said, “Stop your weeping; she is not dead but asleep.”
8:53 And they began making fun of him, because they knew that she was dead.
8:54 But Jesus gently took her by the hand and said, “Child, get up.”
8:55 Her spirit returned, and she got up immediately. Then he told them to give her something to eat.
