Dorcas Restored to Life
36 Now there was in (A)Joppa a disciple named Tabitha, which, translated, means Dorcas.[a] She was full of (B)good works and acts of charity. 37 In those days she became ill and died, and when they had washed her, they laid her in (C)an upper room. 38 Since Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, hearing that Peter was there, sent two men to him, urging him, (D)“Please come to us without delay.”
