In context
34Peter said to him, “Aeneas, Jesus Christ heals you. Get up and make your bed.” And he got up at once. 35Everyone living in Lydda and Sharon saw him, and they turned to the Lord. 36In Joppa there was a disciple named Tabitha, which translated is Dorcas. She was full of good works and acts of charity. 37In those days she fell ill and died. They washed her and laid her in an upstairs room. 38Since Lydda is near Joppa, the disciples heard that Peter was there and sent two men to him, urging him, “Come to us without delay.”
