Acts 20:9

Verse 9 of 38. The 20th of 28 chapters in Acts, in Acts.

5But these had gone ahead, and were waiting for us at Troas.

6We sailed away from Philippi after the days of Unleavened Bread, and came to them at Troas in five days, where we stayed seven days.

7On the first day of the week, when the disciples were gathered together to break bread, Paul talked with them, intending to depart on the next day; and continued his speech until midnight.

8There were many lights in the upper room where we were gathered together.

9A certain young man named Eutychus sat in the window, weighed down with deep sleep. As Paul spoke still longer, being weighed down by his sleep, he fell down from the third floor and was taken up dead.

10Paul went down and fell upon him, and embracing him said, “Don’t be troubled, for his life is in him.”

11When he had gone up, had broken bread and eaten, and had talked with them a long while, even until break of day, he departed.

12They brought the boy in alive, and were greatly comforted.

13But we, going ahead to the ship, set sail for Assos, intending to take Paul aboard there; for he had so arranged, intending himself to go by land.
