8 We were all together in a room upstairs, and there were many lamps in the room.
9 A young man named Eutychus was sitting in the window. As Paul continued talking, Eutychus was falling into a deep sleep. Finally, he went sound asleep and fell to the ground from the third floor. When they picked him up, he was dead.
10 Paul went down to Eutychus. He knelt down and put his arms around him. He said, “Don’t worry. He is alive now.”
11 Then Paul went upstairs again, broke bread, and ate. He spoke to them a long time, until it was early morning. Then he left.
12 They took the young man home alive and were greatly comforted.
13 We sailed for the city of Assos. We went first, ahead of Paul. He wanted to join us on the ship there. Paul planned it this way because he wanted to go to Assos by land.
14 When he met us at Assos, we took him aboard and went to Mitylene.
