Mark 5:36-40

English Standard Version

³⁶ But overhearing^[a] what they said, Jesus said to ^(A)the ruler of the synagogue, “Do not fear, only believe.” ³⁷ And he allowed no one to follow him except ^(B)Peter and James and ^(C)John the brother of James. ³⁸ They came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and Jesus^[b] saw a commotion, people weeping and wailing loudly. ³⁹ And when he had entered, he said to them, ^(D)“Why are you making a commotion and weeping? The child is not dead but ^(E)sleeping.” ⁴⁰ And they laughed at him. But he ^(F)put them all outside and took the child's father and mother and those who were with him and went in where the child was.
