"Sir," said the king's officer, "come down before my little boy dies." Jesus answered. "Go your way. Your son lives." And the man believed the word which Jesus spoke to him, and started to go home. And when he was already on his way down, his slaves met him, saying that his boy was living. So he asked them at what hour he had begun mend. They answered, "Yesterday, about one o'clock, the fever left him." Then the father realized that it had left him at the very hour when Jesus had said to him, "Your son lives," and he himself believed, and his whole household.

Then he took the child's hand and said to her, "Talitha, cumi," that is to say, "Little girl, I am speaking to you; arise!" And instantly the little girl stood up, and began to walk, for she was twelve years old, They were at once beside themselves with utter amazement.

A great crowd accompanied her. And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her and said to her, "Do not weep." And he came near and touched the bier; the bearer stopped and he said, "Young man, I bid you to rise." And he who was dead sat up and began to speak; and he gave him to his mother.
