5And these had gone on ahead and* were waiting for us in Troas. 6And we sailed away from Philippi after the days of Unleavened Bread and came to them at Troas within five days, where we stayed seven days.

Eutychus Falls from a Window

7And on the first day of the week, when* we had assembled to break bread, Paul began conversing* with them, because he* was going to leave on the next day, and he extended his* message until midnight. 8Now there were quite a few lamps in the upstairs room where we were gathered. 9And a certain young man namedb Eutychus who was sitting in the window was sinking into a deep sleep while* Paul was conversing at length. Being overcome by sleep, he fell down from the third story and was picked up dead. 10But Paul went down and* threw himself on him, and putting his arms around him,* said, “Do not be distressed, for his life is in him.” 11So he went up and broke bread,* and when he* had eaten and talked for a long time, until dawn, then he departed. 12And they led the youth away alive, and were greatlyc comforted.

The Voyage to Miletus

13But we went on ahead to the ship and* put out to sea for Assos, intending to take Paul on board there. For having made arrangements in this way, he himself was intending to travel by land. 14And when he met us at Assos, we took him on board and* went to Mitylene. 15And we sailed from there on the next day, and* arrived opposite Chios. And on the next day we approached Samos, and on the following day we came to Miletus.
