33And there was a certain man there, named Aeneas, who for eight years had been in bed, without power of moving.
34And Peter said to him, Aeneas, Jesus Christ makes you well: get up and make your bed. And straight away he got up.
35And all those living in Lydda and Sharon saw him, and were turned to the Lord.
36Now 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.
37And 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.
38And 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.
39And 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.
