32 As Peter traveled throughout the area, he went to visit the saints in Lydda.

33 There he found a man named Aeneas, who had been paralyzed and bedridden for eight years.

“Aeneas,” Peter said to him, “Jesus Christ heals you! Get up and put away your mat.” Immediately Aeneas got up,

36 In Joppa there was a disciple named Tabitha (which is translated as Dorcas), who was always occupied with works of kindness and charity.
