saying, Your daughter is dead; why trouble the

synagogue ruler, Fear not, only believe. [5:37]And he permitted no man
to accompany him except Peter, and James, and John the brother of
James. [5:38]And they came to the house of the synagogue ruler, and saw
the tumult, and the people weeping and lamenting much. [5:39]And he
went in and said to them, Why do you make a tumult and weep? the little
child is not dead, but sleeps. [5:40]And they derided him. And putting
them all out, he took the father and mother of the little child, and
those with him, and went in where the little child was; [5:41]and
taking the hand of the little child, he said to her, Talitha cum, which
is interpreted, Girl, I tell you arise; [5:42]and immediately the girl
arose and walked about, for she was twelve years old. And they were
astonished with great astonishment. [5:43]And he charged them strictly

Judas, and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us? And they were
offended with him. [6:4]And Jesus said to them, A prophet is not
without honor, except in his own country, and with his relations, and
in his own house. [6:5]And he could not do any mighty work there,
except that he laid hands on a few sick persons, and cured them.
[6:6]And he wondered at their unbelief. And he went about the villages
in order, teaching.
2 [6:7]And he called the twelve, and sent them out two and two, and
