Acts 9:36-43
New International Version
36 In Joppa(A) there was a disciple named Tabitha (in Greek her name is Dorcas); she was always doing good(B) and helping the poor. 37 About that time she became sick and died, and her body was washed and placed in an upstairs room.(C) 38 Lydda was near Joppa; so when the disciples(D) heard that Peter was in Lydda, they sent two men to him and urged him, “Please come at once!”
39 Peter went with them, and when he arrived he was taken upstairs to the room. All the widows(E) stood around him, crying and showing him the robes and other clothing that Dorcas had made while she was still with them.
40 Peter sent them all out of the room;(F) then he got down on his knees(G) and prayed. Turning toward the dead woman, he said, “Tabitha, get up.”(H) She opened her eyes, and seeing Peter she sat up. 41 He took her by the hand and helped her to her feet. Then he called for the believers, especially the widows, and presented her to them alive. 42 This became known all over Joppa, and many people believed in the Lord.(I) 43 Peter stayed in Joppa for some time with a tanner named Simon.(J)

36 Now in (A)Joppa there was a disciple named Tabitha (which when translated means [a]Dorcas); this woman was [b]excelling in acts of kindness and charity which she did habitually. 37 But it happened [c]at that time that she became sick and died; and when they had washed her body, they laid it in an (B)upstairs room. 38 Since Lydda was near (C)Joppa, (D)the disciples, having heard that Peter was there, sent two men to him, urging him, “Do not delay in coming to us.” 39 So Peter got ready and went with them. When he arrived, they brought him into the (E)room upstairs; and all the (F)widows stood beside him, weeping and showing all the [d]tunics and garments that Dorcas used to make while she was with them. 40 But Peter (G)sent them all out and (H)knelt down and prayed, and turning to the body, he said, “(I)Tabitha, arise.” And she opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter, she sat up. 41 And he gave her his hand and raised her up; and calling (J)the [e]saints and (K)widows, he presented her alive. 42 It became known all over (L)Joppa, and (M)many believed in the Lord. 43 And Peter stayed in (N)Joppa many days with (O)a tanner named Simon.
