Acts 9:39-43 New English Translation (NET)

39. So Peter got up and went with them, and when he arrived they brought him to the upper room. All the widows stood beside him, crying and showing him the tunics and other clothing Dorcas used to make while she was with them.

40. But Peter sent them all outside, knelt down, and prayed. Turning to the body, he said, “Tabitha, get up.” Then she opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter, she sat up.

41. He gave her his hand and helped her get up. Then he called the saints and widows and presented her alive.

42. This became known throughout all Joppa, and many believed in the Lord.

43. So Peter stayed many days in Joppa with a man named Simon, a tanner.
