Mark 5:34-39
English Standard Version
35While he was still speaking, there came from the ruler 's house some who said, "Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Teacher any further?"
36But overhearing what they said, Jesus said to the ruler of the synagogue, "Do not fear, only believe."
37And he allowed no one to follow him except Peter and James and John the brother of James.
38They came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and Jesus saw a commotion, people weeping and wailing loudly.
39And when he had entered, he said to them, "Why are you making a commotion and weeping? The child is not dead but sleeping."
