[32] And it came Peter passed throughout all quarters, he came down also to the saints which dwelt at Lydda. [33] And there he found a certain man named Aeneas, which had kept his bed eight years, and sick of the palsy. [34] And Peter said unto him, Aeneas, Jesus Christ whole: arise, and thy bed. And he arose immediately. [35] And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron him, and turned to the Lord. [36] Now at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman full of good works and almsdeeds which she did. [37] And it came to pass in those days, that she was sick, and died: whom when they had washed, they laid her in an upper chamber. [38] And Lydda was nigh to Joppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter there, they sent unto him two men, desiring not delay to come to them. [39] Then Peter arose and went with them. When he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and shewing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, with them. [40] But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning him to the body said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and Peter, she sat up. [41] And he gave her his hand, her up, and when he had called the saints and widows, presented her alive. [42] And it was known throughout all Joppa; and many believed in the Lord. [43] And it came to pass, tarried many days in Joppa with one Simon a tanner.
