And the damsel ran, and told them of her mother's house these things.

And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise.

Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.

And the damsel was very fair, and cherished the king, and ministered to him: but the king knew her not.
