Acts 20:4-17

4And 1he was accompanied by Sopater of 2Berea, the son of Pyrrhus, and by 3Aristarchus and Secundus of the 4Thessalonians, and 5Gaius of 6Derbe, and 7Timothy, and 8Tychicus and 9Trophimus of 1011Asia. 5Now these had gone on ahead and were waiting for 12us at 13Troas. 614We sailed from 15Philippi after 1617the days of Unleavened Bread, and reached them at 18Troas within five days; and we stayed there for seven days.

7On 19the first day of the week, when 20we were gathered together to 21break bread, Paul began talking to them, intending to leave the next day, and he prolonged his 22message until midnight. 8There were many 23lamps in the 24upstairs room where we were gathered together. 9And there was a young man named 25Eutychus sitting 26on the window sill, sinking into a deep sleep; and as Paul kept on talking, Eutychus was overcome by sleep and fell down from the third floor, and was picked up dead. 10But Paul went down and 27fell upon him, and after embracing him, he 28said, “29Do not be troubled, for 30he is still alive.” 11When Paul had gone back up and had 31broken the bread and 32eaten, he talked with them a long while until daybreak, and then left. 12They took away the boy alive, and were 33greatly comforted.

13But 34we went ahead to the ship and set sail for Assos, intending from there to take Paul on board; for that was what he had arranged, intending himself to go 35by land. 14And when he met us at Assos, we took him on board and came to Mitylene. 15Sailing from there, we arrived the following day opposite Chios; and the next day we crossed over to Samos, and on the following day we came to 36Miletus. 16For Paul had decided to sail past 37Ephesus so that he would not have to lose time in 3839Asia; for he was hurrying, if it might be possible for him 40to be in Jerusalem 41the day of Pentecost.

17From Miletus he sent word to 42Ephesus and called to himself 43the elders of the church.
