Acts 20:4-12 - Paul In Troas

⁴ He was accompanied by Sopater the son of Pyrrhus, of Beroea, Aristarchus and Secundus from Thessalonica, Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy, as well as by Tychicus and Trophimus of Roman Asia. ⁵ These men went to Troas and waited for us there; ⁶ While we ourselves sailed from Philippi after the Passover, and joined them five days later at Troas, where we stayed for a week.

⁷ On the first day of the week, when we had met for the Breaking of Bread, Paul, who was intending to leave the next day, began to address those who were present, and prolonged his address till midnight. ⁸ There were a good many lamps in the upstairs room, where we had met; ⁹ And a young man named Eutychus, sitting at the window, was gradually overcome with great drowsiness, as Paul continued his address. At last, quite overpowered by his drowsiness, he fell from the third story to the ground, and was picked up for dead. ¹⁰ But Paul went down, threw himself upon him, and put his arms round him. "Do not be alarmed," he said, "he is still alive." ¹¹ Then he went upstairs; and, after breaking and partaking of the Bread, he talked with them at great length till daybreak, and then left. ¹² Meanwhile they had taken the lad away alive, and were greatly comforted.
