Matthew 9:23-25

New Testament for Everyone

²³ Jesus went into the official’s house. There he saw the flute-players, and everybody in a great state of agitation.

²⁴ “Go away!” he said. “The little girl isn’t dead. She’s asleep!” And they laughed at him.

²⁵ So when the crowd had been put out, he went in and took hold of her hand, and she got up.
