Luke 8:41-42 (NASB)

41 Luke 8:41 And there came a man named Jairus, and he was an official of the synagogue; and he fell at Jesus’ feet, and began to implore Him to come to his house; 42 Luke 8:42 for he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was dying. But as He went, the crowds were pressing against Him.

Luke 8:49-56 (NASB)

49 Luke 8:49 While He was still speaking, someone *came from the house of the synagogue official, saying, “Your daughter has died; do not trouble the Teacher anymore.” 50 Luke 8:50 But when Jesus heard this, He answered him, “Do not be afraid any longer; only believe, and she will be made well.” 51 Luke 8:51 When He came to the house, He did not allow anyone to enter with Him, except Peter and John and James, and the girl’s father and mother. 52 Luke 8:52 Now they were all weeping and lamenting for her; but He said, “Stop weeping, for she has not died, but is asleep.” 53 Luke 8:53 And they began laughing at Him, knowing that she had died. 54 Luke 8:54 He, however, took her by the hand and called, saying, “Child, arise!” 55 Luke 8:55 And her spirit returned, and she got up immediately; and He gave orders for something to be given her to eat. 56 Luke 8:56 Her parents were amazed; but He instructed them to tell no one what had happened.
