Acts 9:32-43

Geneva(i) 32 And it came to passe, as Peter walked throughout all quarters, hee came also to the saints which dwelt at Lydda. 33 And there he found a certaine man named Aeneas, which had kept his couch eight yeeres, and was sicke of the palsie. 34 Then said Peter vnto him, Aeneas, Iesus Christ maketh thee whole: arise and trusse thy couch together. And he arose immediately. 35 And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron, sawe him, and turned to the Lord. 36 There was also at Ioppa a certaine woman, a disciple named Tabitha (which by interpretation is called Dorcas) she was full of good workes and almes which she did. 37 And it came to passe in those dayes, that she was sicke and dyed: and when they had washed her, they layd her in an vpper chamber. 38 Now forasmuch as Lydda was neere to Ioppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent vnto him two men, desiring that he would not delay to come vnto them. 39 Then Peter arose and came with them: and when hee was come, they brought him into the vpper chamber, where all the widowes stoode by him weeping, and shewing the coates and garments, which Dorcas made, while she was with them. 40 But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled downe, and prayed, and turned him to the body, and sayd, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes, and when she sawe Peter, sate vp. 41 Then he gaue her the hand and lift her vp, and called the Saints and widowes, and restored her aliue. 42 And it was knowen throughout all Ioppa, and many beleeued in the Lord. 43 And it came to passe that he taried many dayes in Ioppa with one Simon a Tanner.
