The little girl, who was twelve years old, got up immediately and began walking around. They were completely astonished at what had happened.
Everyone was amazed at what happened. “What is this?” they asked each other. “What is this new teaching that has such authority? Even evil spirits do what he tells them!”
They were stunned and terrified. They asked each other, “Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!”
Taking the little girl's hand he said, “Talitha koum,” which means, “Little girl, get up!”
He gave them strict instructions not to let anyone know, and he told them to give the little girl something to eat.
He went over to them and climbed into the boat, and the wind died down. They were totally shocked,
They were totally amazed and said, “Everything he does is marvelous. He even makes the deaf hear, and the dumb speak.”
