23. When Jesus came into the official's house, and saw the flute-players and the crowd in noisy disorder,
24. He said, "Leave; for the girl has not died, but is asleep." And they began laughing at Him.
25. But when the crowd had been sent out, He entered and took her by the hand, and the girl got up.
26. This news spread throughout all that land.
27. As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed Him, crying out, "Have mercy on us, Son of David!"
28. When He entered the house, the blind men came up to Him, and Jesus said to them, "Do you believe that I am able to do this?" They said to Him, "Yes, Lord."
29. Then He touched their eyes, saying, "It shall be done to you according to your faith."
30. And their eyes were opened. And Jesus sternly warned them: "See that no one knows about this!"
31. But they went out and spread the news about Him throughout all that land.
