And on the first of the week, the disciples having been gathered together to break bread, Paul was discoursing to them, about to depart on the morrow, he was also continuing the discourse till midnight,

and there were many lamps in the upper chamber where they were gathered together,

and there was sitting a certain youth, by name Eutychus, upon the window -- being borne down by a deep sleep, Paul discoursing long -- he having sunk down from the sleep, fell down from the third story, and was lifted up dead.

10 And Paul, having gone down, fell upon him, and having embraced [him], said, `Make no tumult, for his life is in him;'

11 and having come up, and having broken bread, and having tasted, for a long time also having talked -- till daylight, so he went forth,

12 and they brought up the lad alive, and were comforted in no ordinary measure.

Eutychus Raised From the Dead at Troas

On the first day of the week(A) we came together to break bread.(B) Paul spoke to the people and, because he intended to leave the next day, kept on talking until midnight. There were many lamps in the upstairs room(C) where we were meeting. Seated in a window was a young man named Eutychus, who was sinking into a deep sleep as Paul talked on and on. When he was sound asleep, he fell to the ground from the third story and was picked up dead. 10 Paul went down, threw himself on the young man(D) and put his arms around him. “Don’t be alarmed,” he said. “He’s alive!”(E) 11 Then he went upstairs again and broke bread(F) and ate. After talking until daylight, he left. 12 The people took the young man home alive and were greatly comforted.
