7. On the first day of the week we met to break bread together. Paul spoke to the people until midnight because he was leaving the next morning.
8. In the upstairs room where we were meeting, there were a lot of lamps.
9. A young man called Eutychus was sitting on a window sill. While Paul was speaking, the young man got very sleepy. Finally, he went to sleep and fell three floors all the way down to the ground. When they picked him up, he was dead.
10. Paul went down and bent over Eutychus. He took him in his arms and said, “Don't worry! He's alive.”
11. After Paul had gone back upstairs, he broke bread, and ate with us. He then spoke until dawn and left.
12. Then the followers took the young man home alive and were very happy.
13. Paul decided to travel by land to Assos. The rest of us went on ahead by ship, and we were to take him aboard there.
14. When he met us in Assos, he came aboard, and we sailed on to Mitylene.
15. The next day we came to a place near Chios, and the following day we reached Samos. The day after that we sailed to Miletus.
