Eutychus Raised from the Dead in Troas
7 And on (A)the first day of the week, when (B)we were gathered together to (C)break bread, Paul began speaking to them, intending to leave the next day, and he prolonged his [a]message until midnight. 8 Now there were many (D)lamps in the (E)upper room where we were gathered together. 9 And there was a young man named [b]Eutychus sitting on the windowsill, sinking into a deep sleep. And as Paul kept on talking, he sunk into that sleep and fell down from the third floor and was picked up dead. 10 But Paul went down and (F)fell upon him, and after embracing him, he (G)said, “[c]Do not be troubled, for his life is in him.” 11 And when he had gone back up and had (H)broken the bread and [d]eaten, he talked with them a long while until daybreak, and then left. 12 And they took away the boy alive, and were not a little comforted.

American Standard Version
7 And upon the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul discoursed with them, intending to depart on the morrow; and prolonged his speech until midnight. 8 And there were many lights in the upper chamber where we were gathered together. 9 And there sat in the window a certain young man named Eutychus, borne down with deep sleep; and as Paul discoursed yet longer, being borne down by his sleep he fell down from the third story, and was taken up dead. 10 And Paul went down, and fell on him, and embracing him said, Make ye no ado; for his life is in him. 11 And when he was gone up, and had broken the bread, and eaten, and had talked with them a long while, even till break of day, so he departed. 12 And they brought the lad alive, and were not a little comforted.
