Acts 20:1–12

Through Macedonia and Greece

20 When the uproar had ended, Paul sent for the disciplesz and, after encouraging them, said goodbye and set out for Macedonia.a 2 He traveled through that area, speaking many words of encouragement to the people, and finally arrived in Greece, 3 where he stayed three months. Because some Jews had plotted against himb just as he was about to sail for Syria,c he decided to go back through Macedonia.d 4 He was accompanied by Sopater son of Pyrrhus from Berea, Aristarchuse and Secundus from Thessalonica,f Gaiusg from Derbe, Timothyh also, and Tychicusi and Trophimusj from the province of Asia.k 5 These men went on ahead and waited for usl at Troas.m 6 But we sailed from Philippin after the Festival of Unleavened Bread, and five days later joined the others at Troas,o where we stayed seven days.

Eutychus Raised From the Dead at Troas

7 On the first day of the weekp we came together to break bread.q Paul spoke to the people and, because he intended to leave the next day, kept on talking until midnight. 8 There were many lamps in the upstairs roomr where we were meeting. 9 Seated in a window was a young man named Eutychus, who was sinking into a deep sleep as Paul talked on and on. When he was sound asleep, he fell to the ground from the third story and was picked up dead. 10 Paul went down, threw himself on the young mans and put his arms around him. “Don’t be alarmed,” he said. “He’s alive!”t 11 Then he went upstairs again and broke breadu and ate. After talking until daylight, he left. 12 The people took the young man home alive and were greatly comforted.
