Bible Text

[11] It happened soon afterwards, that he went to a city called Nain. Many of his disciples, along with a great multitude, went with him. [12] Now when he drew near to the gate of the city, behold, one who was dead was carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. Many people of the city were with her. [13] When the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said to her, "Don't cry." [14] He came near and touched the coffin, and the bearers stood still. He said, "Young man, I tell you, arise!" [15] He who was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he gave him to his mother.
