Acts 20:9-12

9And there was a young man named 1Eutychus sitting 2on 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 3fell upon him, and after embracing him, he 4said, “5Do not be troubled, for 6he is still alive.” 11When Paul had gone back up and had 7broken the bread and 8eaten, he talked with them a long while until daybreak, and then left. 12They took away the boy alive, and were 9greatly comforted.
