44:009:031 Then had the churches rest throughout all
Judaea and Galilee
and
Samaria, and were edified; and walking in the fear
of the
Lord,
and in the comfort of the Holy Ghost, were multiplied.
44:009:032 And it came to pass, as Peter passed throughout
all quarters,
he
came down also to the saints which dwelt at Lydda.
44:009:033 And there he found a certain man named
Aeneas, which had kept
his
bed eight years, and was sick of the palsy.
44:009:034 And Peter said unto him, Aeneas, Jesus
Christ maketh thee
whole:
arise, and make thy bed. And he arose immediately.
44:009:035 And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron saw
him, and turned to
the
Lord.
44:009:036 Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple
named Tabitha, which
by
interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was
full of
good
works and almsdeeds which she did.
44:009:037 And it came to pass in those days, that
she was sick, and
died:
whom when they had washed, they laid her in an upper
chamber.
44:009:038 And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppa,
and the disciples
had
heard that Peter was there, they sent unto him two
men,
desiring
him that he would not delay to come to them.
44:009:039 Then Peter arose and went with them.
When he was come, they
brought
him into the upper chamber: and all the widows
stood
by
him weeping, and shewing the coats and garments which
Dorcas
made, while she was with them.
44:009:040 But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled
down, and prayed;
and
turning him to the body said, Tabitha, arise.
And she
opened
her eyes: and when she saw Peter, she sat up.
44:009:041 And he gave her his hand, and lifted her
up, and when he had
called
the saints and widows, presented her alive.
44:009:042 And it was known throughout all Joppa;
and many believed in
the
Lord.
44:009:043 And it came to pass, that he tarried many
days in Joppa with
one
Simon a tanner.
44:010:001 There was a certain man in Caesarea called
Cornelius, a
centurion
of the band called the Italian band,
44:010:002 A devout man, and one that feared God with
all his house,
which
gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway.
44:010:003 He saw in a vision evidently about the
ninth hour of the day
an
angel of God coming in to him, and saying unto him,
Cornelius.
44:010:004 And when he looked on him, he was afraid,
and said, What is
it,
Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine
alms are
come
up for a memorial before God.
