Luke 8:52

Luke 8:52-53 The Message (MSG)

Everyone was crying and carrying on over her. Jesus said, “Don’t cry. She didn’t die; she’s sleeping.” They laughed at him. They knew she was dead.

And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth.

Now they were all weeping and lamenting for her; but He said, “Stop weeping, for she has not died, but is asleep.”

All the people were crying and feeling sad because the girl was dead, but Jesus said, “Stop crying. She is not dead, only asleep.”

And all were weeping, and bewailing her: but he said, Weep not; for she is not dead, but sleepeth.

Meanwhile, all the people were wailing and mourning for her. “Stop wailing,” Jesus said. “She is not dead but asleep.”

Now all wept and mourned for her; but He said, “Do not weep; she is not dead, but sleeping.”

Now they were all weeping loudly and mourning for her; but He said, “Do not weep, for she is not dead, but is sleeping.”

The house was filled with people weeping and wailing, but he said, “Stop the weeping! She isn’t dead; she’s only asleep.”

Jesus told those left outside, who were sobbing and wailing with grief, “Stop crying. She is not dead; she’s just asleep and must be awakened.”

And all were weeping and mourning for her, but he said, “Do not weep, for she is not dead but sleeping.”
