Acts 20:8-12 New English Translation (NET)

8. (Now there were many lamps in the upstairs room where we were meeting.)

9. A young man named Eutychus, who was sitting in the window, was sinking into a deep sleep while Paul continued to speak for a long time. Fast asleep, he fell down from the third story and was picked up dead.

10. But Paul went down, threw himself on the young man, put his arms around him, and said, “Do not be distressed, for he is still alive!”

11. Then Paul went back upstairs, and after he had broken bread and eaten, he talked with them a long time, until dawn. Then he left.

12. They took the boy home alive and were greatly comforted.
