While Paul Is Speaking In Troas, Eutychus Falls To His Death, And Is Raised

⁷ And on the first day of the week, we having been gathered together to break bread, Paul was speaking to them, being about to go away on the next day. And he was extending the message until midnight. ⁸ And there were many lamps in the upper-room where we had been gathered-together. ⁹ And a certain young-man, Eutychus by name, sitting on the window [sill], was being carried-away by a deep sleep while Paul was speaking further. Having been carried-away by the sleep, he fell down from the third floor, and was picked-up dead. ¹⁰ But having gone down, Paul fell upon him, and having embraced him, said, “Do not be thrown-into-a-commotion, for his life is in him!” ¹¹ And Paul ^[a] having gone up, and having broken the bread and eaten and having conversed for a considerable time, until daybreak— in this manner he departed. ¹² And they brought the boy [along]^[b] alive. And they were not moderately comforted.
