9:35 And saw him all the ones inhabiting Lydda and
Saron, who turned to the Lord in Joppa. Now a certain was disciple
by name Tabitha. 36 who being translated is called Dorcas: this
woman was full works of good and of alms which she did. 37 And it happened
in those days ailing being ill she died; and having swashed they put her in
an upper room. 38 Now near being Lydda to Joppa the disciples having heard
that Peter was in it sent two men to him beseeching: not hesitate to
come to us. 39 And rising up Peter went with them: whom arriving they led
up into the upper

room,
and stood by him all the widows weeping and showing tunics and garments,
which made with them being Dorcas. 40 And putting out outside all Peter and
kneeling down (placing the knees) he prayed, and turning to the body said: Tabitha,
rise up. And she opened the eyes of her, and seeing Peter sat up.
41 and giving her a hand he raised up her; and calling the saints and the
widows he presented her living. 42 And known it became throughout all
Joppa, and believed many on the Lord. 43 And it came to pass days several
to remain in Joppa with one Simon a tanner.
