38

So hee came vnto the house of the ruler of the Synagogue, and sawe the tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly.

And he went in, and said vnto them, Why make ye this trouble, and weepe? the childe is not dead, but sleepeth.

40

And they laught him to scorne: but hee put them all out, and tooke the father, and the mother of the childe, and them that were with him, and entred in where the childe lay,

41

And tooke the childe by the hand, and saide vnto her, Talitha cumi, which is by interpretation, Mayden, I say vnto thee, arise.

42

And straightway the mayden arose, and walked: for shee was of the age of twelue yeeres, and they were astonied out of measure.

43
