All the widows [i.e., her friends] stood near Peter, crying and showing [him] the coats and [other] clothing which Dorcas had made when she was alive. Then Peter asked them all to leave [the room]; he knelt down and prayed over her body, saying, "Tabitha, get up." She opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter, she sat up.

And this [miracle] became known throughout all of Joppa and many people believed in [Jesus as] the Lord. And Peter lived for some time in Joppa with Simon, who was an [animal hide] tanner.
