Eutychus Raised from the Dead in Troas

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. Now there were many (D)lamps in the (E)upper room where we were gathered together. 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.

Eutychus Raised from the Dead

(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. There were many lamps in (C)the upper room where we were gathered. 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 story 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.
