And since Lydda was near Joppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent two men to him, imploring him not to delay in coming to them.
39
Then Peter arose and went with them. When he had come, they brought him to the upper room. And all the widows stood by him weeping, showing the tunics and garments which Dorcas had made while she was with them.
40
But Peter put them all out, and knelt down and prayed. And turning to the body he said, "Tabitha, arise." And she opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter she sat up.
41
Then he gave her his hand and lifted her up; and when he had called the saints and widows, he presented her alive.
42
And it became known throughout all Joppa, and many believed on the Lord.
43
So it was that he stayed many days in Joppa with Simon, a tanner.
