← Acts 20:8	Acts 20:9 (KJV)	Acts 20:10 →
And there were many lights in the upper chamber, where they were gathered together.	And there sat in a window a certain young man named Eutychus, being fallen into a deep sleep: and as Paul was long preaching, he sunk down with sleep, and fell down from the third loft, and was taken up dead.	And Paul went down, and fell on him, and embracing [him] said, Trouble not yourselves; for his life is in him.
