Acts 9:36-39

36NowG1161 in 1JoppaG2445 there was a discipleG3102 namedG3686 TabithaG5000 (whichG3739 when translatedG1329 meansG3004 2DorcasG1393); thisG3778 womanG3778 was 3excellingG4134 in actsG2041 of kindnessG18 and charityG1654 whichG3739 she didG4160 habitually.

37But it happenedG1096 4at that timeG2250 that she becameG770 sickG770 and diedG599; and when they had washedG3068 her body, they laidG5087 it in an 5upstairsG5253 roomG5253.

38Since LyddaG3069 was nearG1451 6JoppaG2445, 7the disciplesG3101, having heardG191 that PeterG4074 was thereG1722 G846, sentG649 twoG1417 menG435 to him, urgingG3870 him, “Do not delayG3635 in comingG1330 to us.”

39SoG1161 PeterG4074 gotG450 readyG450 and wentG4905 with them. When he arrivedG3854, they broughtG321 him into the 8roomG5253 upstairsG5253; and allG3956 the 9widowsG5503 stoodG3936 besideG3936 him, weepingG2799 and showingG1925 allG3745 the 10tunicsG5509 and garmentsG2440 thatG3745 DorcasG1393 used to makeG4160 while she was with them.
