11 And it came to pass thereafter, that he journeyed unto a city called Nain, and there were journeying with him, his disciples and a great multitude. 12 Now, as he drew near unto the gate of the city, then lo! there was being brought forth, one dead, the only-begotten son of his mother, - and, she, was a widow; and, a considerable multitude of the city, was with her. 13 And, beholding her, the Lord, was moved with compassion over her, and said to her - Be not weeping! 14 And, going forward, he touched the coffin, and the bearers stood still; and he said - Young man! to thee, I say, Arise! 15 And the dead man sat up, and began to speak; and he gave him to his mother. 16 And fear seized them, all, and they began to glorify God, saying - A great prophet, hath been raised up amongst us! and - God hath visited his people! 17 And this report went forth throughout the whole of Judaea, and all the surrounding country. 18 And John's disciples carried tidings unto him concerning all these things.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her,.... Knowing her case, that she was a widow, and had lost her only son:

and said unto her, weep not; signifying, that he would help her, which he did without being asked to do it, as usual in other cases.
