³⁶Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which when translated means Dorcas. This woman was full of good works and acts of mercy which she did.
³⁷In those days, she became sick and died. When they had washed her, they laid her in an upper room.
³⁸As Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, hearing that Peter was there, sent two men to him, imploring him not to delay in coming to them.
³⁹Peter got up and went with them. When he had come, they brought him into the upper room. All the widows stood by him weeping, and showing the tunics and other garments which Dorcas had made while she was with them.
⁴⁰Peter sent them all out, and knelt down and prayed. Turning to the body, he said, “Tabitha, get up!” She opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter, she sat up.
⁴¹He gave her his hand and raised her up. Calling the saints and widows, he presented her alive.
⁴²This became known throughout all Joppa, and many believed in the Lord.
⁴³He stayed many days in Joppa with a tanner named Simon.
