³⁶ Now in Joppa, there was a certain disciple, Tabitha by name (which being interpreted^[a] means “Dorcas”). This one was full of good works and acts-of-almsgiving^[b] which she was doing. ³⁷ And it came about in those days that having become sick, she died. And having washed her, they laid her in an upper-room. ³⁸ Now Lydda being near Joppa, the disciples, having heard that Peter was in it, sent-out two men to him urging, “Do not delay to come to us”.
