* Now there was (5713 ) at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha , which by interpretation (5746 ) is called (5743 ) Dorcas : this woman (5625 ) was (5713 ) full of good works and almsdeeds which she did (5707 ). * And it came to pass (5633 ) in those days , that she was sick (5660 ), and died (5629 ): whom when they had washed (5660 ), they laid (5656 ) her in an upper chamber . * And forasmuch as (5752 ) Lydda was nigh to Joppa , and the disciples had heard (5660 ) that Peter was (5748 ) there , they sent (5656 ) unto him two men , desiring (5723 ) him that he would not delay (5658 ) to come (5629 ) to them . * Then Peter arose (5631 ) and went with (5627 ) them . When he was come (5637 ), they brought him (5627 ) into the upper chamber : and all the widows stood by (5656 ) him weeping (5723 ), and shewing (5734 ) the coats and garments which Dorcas made (5707 ), while she was (5752 ) with them . * But Peter put (5631 ) them all forth , and kneeled down (5631 ), and prayed (5662 ); and turning (5660 ) him to the body said (5627 ), Tabitha , arise (5628 ). And she opened (5656 ) her eyes : and when she saw (5631 ) Peter , she sat up (5656 ). * And he gave (5631 ) her his hand , and lifted her up (5656 ), and when he had called (5660 ) the saints and widows , presented (5656 ) her alive (5723 ).
