Acts 20:5-15

5These went on ahead and were waiting for us at Troas.

6But we sailed from Philippi after the Days of Matzah. In five days we came to them in Troas, where we stayed for seven days.

7Now on the first day of the week, we gathered to break bread. Paul was talking with them, intending to leave the next day, so he prolonged his speech till midnight.

8There were many lamps in the upper chamber where we were meeting.

9Now a young man named Eutychus was sitting in a windowsill, sinking into a deep sleep as Paul kept on talking. Overcome by sleep, he fell from the third story and was picked up—dead.

10But Paul went down, fell on him and threw his arms around him. He said, “Don’t be upset, for his life is within him.”

11After he went back up and broke the bread and ate, he talked with them a long while until daybreak and then left.

12So they took the boy away alive, greatly relieved.

13But we went on ahead to the ship and set sail for Assos, intending to take Paul aboard there—for so he had arranged, intending himself to travel there by land.

14When he met us at Assos, we took him on board and went to Mitylene.

15Sailing from there, we arrived the next day opposite Chios; the next day we crossed over to Samos, and the day after that we came to Miletus.
