1. When the uproar was over, Paul sent for the disciples, encouraged them, said goodbye, and left for Macedonia.
2. He went through that region and spoke many words of encouragement to the people. Then he went to Greece
3. and stayed there for three months.When Paul was going to board a ship for Syria, he found out that the Jews were plotting to kill him. So he decided to go back through Macedonia.
4. Sopater (son of Pyrrhus) from Berea, Aristarchus and Secundus from Thessalonica, Gaius from Derbe, Timothy, and Tychicus and Trophimus from the province of Asia accompanied Paul.
5. All these men went ahead and were waiting for us in Troas.
6. After the Festival of Unleavened Bread, we boarded a ship at Philippi. Five days later we joined them in Troas and stayed there for seven days.
7. On Sunday we met to break bread. Paul was discussing ⌊Scripture⌋ with the people. Since he intended to leave the next day, he kept talking until midnight.
8. (Many lamps were lit in the upstairs room where we were meeting.)
9. A young man named Eutychus was sitting in a window. As Paul was talking on and on, Eutychus was gradually falling asleep. Finally, overcome by sleep, he fell from the third story and was dead when they picked him up.
10. Paul went to him, took him into his arms, and said, “Don’t worry! He’s alive!”
11. Then Eutychus went upstairs again, broke the bread, and ate. Paul talked with the people for a long time, until sunrise, and then left.
12. The people took the boy home. They were greatly relieved that he was alive.
13. We went ahead to the ship and sailed for the city of Assos. At Assos, we were going to pick up Paul. He had made these arrangements, since he had planned to walk overland to Assos.
14. When Paul met us in Assos, we took him on board and went to the city of Mitylene.
15. We sailed from there. On the following day we approached the island of Chios. The next day we went by the island of Samos, and on the next day we arrived at the city of Miletus.
