Acts:9:36-43
bbe@Acts:9:36 @Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, that is, Dorcas: this woman was given to good works and acts of mercy at all times.
bbe@Acts:9:37 @And it came about, in those days, that she got ill and came to her death: and when she had been washed, they put her in a room which was high up.
bbe@Acts:9:38 @And because Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, having knowledge that Peter was there, sent two men to him, requesting him to come to them straight away.
bbe@Acts:9:39 @And Peter went with them. And when he had come, they took him into the room: and all the widows were there, weeping and putting before him the coats and clothing which Dorcas had made while she was with them.
bbe@Acts:9:40 @But Peter made them all go outside, and went down on his knees in prayer; and turning to the body, he said, Tabitha, get up. And, opening her eyes, she saw Peter and got up.
bbe@Acts:9:41 @And he took her hand, lifting her up; and, sending for the saints and widows, he gave her to them, living.
bbe@Acts:9:42 @And news of it went all through Joppa, and a number of people had faith in the Lord.
bbe@Acts:9:43 @And he was living in Joppa for some time with Simon, a leather-worker.
