Paul in Macedonia and Greece

1After the uproar had ceased, Paul sent for athe disciples, and when he had exhorted them and taken his leave of them, he left bto go to cMacedonia.

2When he had gone through those districts and had given them much exhortation, he came to Greece.

3And there he spent three months, and when aa plot was formed against him by the Jews as he was about to set sail for bSyria, he decided to return through cMacedonia.

4And 1he was accompanied by Sopater of aBerea, the son of Pyrrhus, and by bAristarchus and Secundus of the cThessalonians, and Gaius of dDerbe, and eTimothy, and fTychicus and gTrophimus of 2hAsia.

5But these had gone on ahead and were waiting for aus at bTroas.

6aWe sailed from bPhilippi after cthe days of Unleavened Bread, and came to them at dTroas within five days; and there we stayed seven days.

7On athe first day of the week, when bwe were gathered together to cbreak bread, Paul began talking to them, intending to leave the next day, and he prolonged his 1message until midnight.

8There were many alamps in the bupper room where we were gathered together.

9And there was a young man named 1Eutychus sitting 2on the window sill, sinking into a deep sleep; and as Paul kept on talking, he was overcome by sleep and fell down from the third floor and was picked up dead.

10But Paul went down and afell upon him, and after embracing him, he bsaid, “1Do not be troubled, for his life is in him.”

11When he had gone back up and had abroken the bread and 1eaten, he talked with them a long while until daybreak, and then left.

12They took away the boy alive, and were 1greatly comforted.

Troas to Miletus

13But awe, going ahead to the ship, set sail for Assos, intending from there to take Paul on board; for so he had arranged it, intending himself to go 1by land.

14And when he met us at Assos, we took him on board and came to Mitylene.

15Sailing from there, we arrived the following day opposite Chios; and the next day we crossed over to Samos; and the day following we came to aMiletus.
