Acts 9:36-38

New American Standard Bible 1995

³⁶ Now in ^(A)Joppa there was a disciple named Tabitha (which translated in Greek is called ^[a]Dorcas); this woman was abounding with deeds of kindness and charity which she continually did. ³⁷ And it happened ^[b]at that time that she fell sick and died; and when they had washed her body, they laid it in an ^(B)upper room. ³⁸ Since Lydda was near ^(C)Joppa, ^(D)the disciples, having heard that Peter was there, sent two men to him, imploring him, “Do not delay in coming to us.”
