(32)And it came to pass that Peter, going through them all, came down also to the saints who dwelt at Lydda. (33)And there he found a certain man named Aeneas, who had lain upon a pallet eight years, who was palsied. (34)And Peter said to him: Aeneas, Jesus the Christ makes thee whole; arise, and make thy bed. And immediately he arose. (35)And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron saw him; and they turned to the Lord. (36)And there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which interpreted is called Dorcas. This woman was full of good works, and of alms, which she did. (37)And it came to pass in those days, that she was sick, and died. And having washed her, they laid her in an upper chamber. (38)And as Lydda was near to Joppa, the disciples, having heard that Peter was there, sent to him two men, entreating that he would not delay to come to them. (39)And Peter arose and went with them. When he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber; and all the widows stood by him weeping, and showing coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them. (40)But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning to the body, he said: Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes; and seeing Peter, she sat up. (41)And he gave her his hand, and raised her up; and calling the saints and widows, he presented her alive. (42)And it became known throughout all Joppa; and many believed on the Lord. (43)And it came to pass, that he remained many days in Joppa, with one Simon, a tanner. X. THERE was a certain man in Caesarea named Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band; (2)devout, and one that feared God with all his house, giving many alms to the people, and praying to God always. (3)He saw in a vision, distinctly, about the ninth hour of the day, an angel of God coming in to him, and saying to him: Cornelius! (4)And fixing his eyes on him, he was afraid, and said: What is it, Lord? And he said to him: Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God. (5)And now send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, who is surnamed Peter. (6)He lodges with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the seaside. (7)And when the angel who spoke to Cornelius was gone, he called two of his household servants, and a devout soldier of those who waited on him; (8)and having told them all these things, he sent them to Joppa.
