32As Peter was passing through all of them, he also went down to the saints living in Lydda.

33And there he found a certain man named Aeneas, bedridden for eight years, who was paralyzed.

34And Peter said to him, “Aeneas, Jesus the Messiah heals you. Get up and make your bed.” And immediately he got up.
