Acts 9:32-43

Godbey(i) 32 And it came to pass, that Peter going through all parts, came down also to the saints living at Lydda. 33 And he found there a certain man, by name Eneas, lying on a bed eight years, who was paralyzed. 34 And Peter said to him, Eneas, Jesus Christ heals thee: arise, and take up thy bed: and immediately he arose. 35 And all those dwelling at Lydda and Sharon, whosoever saw him, turned to the Lord. 36 But there was a certain disciple in Joppa, by name Tabitha, who being interpreted is called Dorcas: and she was full of good works and alms which she was doing. 37 And it came to pass during those days, she being sick, died: and washing her, they placed her in an upper chamber. 38 And Lydda being near to Joppa, the disciples hearing that Peter is in it, sent two men to him, entreating him, Do not delay to come unto us. 39 And Peter rising up came along with them; whom, on arrival, they led to the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and showing him the chitoons and himations, so many as Dorcas made, while with them. 40 And Peter having put them all out, and putting down his knees, prayed; and having turned toward the body, said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and seeing Peter sat up. 41 And having given her his hand, he raised her up, and calling the saints and widows, he presented her alive. 42 And it was known throughout all Joppa; and many believed on the Lord. 43 And it came to pass, that he remained some days in Joppa, with one Simon a tanner.
