Acts 20:6-12

61We sailed from 2Philippi after 3the days of Unleavened Bread, and came to them at 4Troas within five days; and there we stayed seven days.

7On 5the first day of the week, when 6we were gathered together to 7break bread, Paul began talking to them, intending to leave the next day, and he prolonged his 8message until midnight. 8There were many 9lamps in the 10upper room where we were gathered together. 9And there was a young man named 11Eutychus sitting 12on the window sill, sinking into a deep sleep; and as Paul kept on talking, he was overcome by sleep and fell down from the third floor and was picked up dead. 10But Paul went down and 13fell upon him, and after embracing him, he 14said, “15Do not be troubled, for his life is in him.” 11When he had gone back up and had 16broken the bread and 17eaten, he talked with them a long while until daybreak, and then left. 12They took away the boy alive, and were 18greatly comforted.
