The girl got up at once and began to walk (she was twelve years old); and at once they were lost in utter amazement.
they were astounded in the extreme, saying, "How splendidly he has done everything! He actually makes the deaf hear and the dumb speak!"
And he got into the boat beside them, and the wind dropped. They were utterly astounded,
But they were overawed and said to each other, "Whatever can he be, when the very wind and sea obey him?"
Then they were all so amazed that they discussed it together, saying, "Whatever is this?" "It's new teaching with authority behind it!" "He orders even unclean spirits!" "Yes, and they obey him!"
then he took the child's hand and said to her, "Talitha koum" — which may be translated, "Little girl, I am telling you to rise."
But he strictly forbade them to let anyone know about it, and told them to give her something to eat.
