51 Lorsqu’il fut arrivé à la maison, il ne permit à personne d’entrer avec lui, si ce n’est à Pierre, à Jean et à Jacques, et au père et à la mère de l’enfant.

52 Tous pleuraient et se lamentaient sur elle. Alors Jésus dit: Ne pleurez pas; elle n’est pas morte,mais elle dort.

53 Et ils se moquaient de lui, sachant qu’elle était morte.

54 Mais il la saisit par la main, et dit d’une voix forte: Enfant, lève-toi.

55 Et son esprit revint en elle, et à l’instant elle se leva; et Jésus ordonna qu’on lui donnât à manger.
