Acts 20:7-16

English Standard Version Anglicised

Eutychus Raised from the Dead

^7 (A)On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together ^(B)to break bread, Paul talked with them, intending to depart on the next day, and he prolonged his speech until midnight. ⁸ There were many lamps in ^(C)the upper room where we were gathered. ⁹ And a young man named Eutychus, sitting at the window, sank into a deep sleep as Paul talked still longer. And being overcome by sleep, he ^(D)fell down from the third storey and was taken up dead. ¹⁰ But Paul went down and ^(E)bent over him, and taking him in his arms, said, ^(F)“Do not be alarmed, for his life is in him.” ¹¹ And when Paul had gone up and ^(G)had broken bread and eaten, he conversed with them a long while, until daybreak, and so departed. ¹² And they took the youth away alive, and were not a little comforted.

¹³ But going ahead to the ship, we set sail for Assos, intending to take Paul aboard there, for so he had arranged, intending himself to go by land. ¹⁴ And when he met us at Assos, we took him on board and went to Mitylene. ¹⁵ And sailing from there we came the following day opposite Chios; the next day we touched at Samos; and^[a] the day after that we went to Miletus. ¹⁶ For Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus, so that he might not have to spend time in Asia, for he was hastening ^(H)to be at Jerusalem, if possible, ^(I)on the day of Pentecost.
