Acts:20:1-16

*
Now after the disturbance had ceased ,
Paul ,
summoning the disciples and greeting them ,
went away to go to Macedonia .
*
And going through those parts ,
and encouraging them with many words ,
he came to Greece
*
and spent three months [
there ].
And as a plot by the Jews developed against him ,
as he was to put to sea for Syria ,
a decision came about to return through Macedonia .
*
And Sopater ,
a Berean ,
was accompanying him to Asia-also Aristarchus of the Thessalonians ,
and Secundus ,
and Gaius of Derbe ,
and Timothy ,
and Tychicus and Trophimus , [
the ]
Asians .
*
These [
men ],
having gone ahead ,
were waiting for us in Troas .
*
And we sailed away after the Days of Unleavened Bread ,
from Philippi ,
and we came to them in Troas within five days ,
where we spent seven days .
*
Now on the first [
day ]
of the week ,
the disciples being assembled to break bread ,
Paul was discussing with them ,
being about to leave on the next day ,
and extended his message until midnight .
*
And there were a considerable number of lamps in the upper room where we were assembled .
*
And a certain young man named Eutychus sat in the window ,
being overwhelmed by a deep sleep .
While Paul was speaking for a while longer ,
having been overwhelmed by sleep ,
he fell down from the third story and was taken up dead .
*
But Paul ,
going down ,
fell upon him ,
and embracing him said , "
Do not be troubled ,
for his life is in him ."
*
And going up and breaking bread and eating ,
and talking for a considerable time ,
until daybreak ,
thus he departed .
*
And they brought the boy living ,
and they were encouraged greatly .
*
Now we ,
having gone ahead on the ship ,
put to sea for Assos ,
from there intending to take Paul on board ;
for thus it had been arranged ,
since he intended to go on foot .
*
And when he met us at Assos ,
having taken him aboard ,
we came to Mitylene .
*
And having sailing away from there ,
on the next day we arrived opposite Chios .
The following day we approached to Samos and remained in Trogyllium .
The following day we came to Miletus .
*
For Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus ,
in order that it might not happen to him to spend time in Asia ;
for he was hurrying ,
if it was possible for him to be in Jerusalem [
on ]
the Day of Pentecost .
