Acts 20:2-16

New American Standard Bible

² When he had gone through those regions and had given them much ^[a]encouragement, he came to Greece. ³ And there he spent three months, and when ^(A)a plot was formed against him by the Jews as he was about to set sail for ^(B)Syria, he decided to return through ^(C)Macedonia. ⁴ And ^[b]he was accompanied by Sopater of ^(D)Berea, the son of Pyrrhus, and by ^(E)Aristarchus and Secundus of the ^(F)Thessalonians, and ^(G)Gaius of ^(H)Derbe, and ^(I)Timothy, and ^(J)Tychicus and ^(K)Trophimus of ^[c](L)Asia. ⁵ Now these had gone on ahead and were waiting for ^(M)us at ^(N)Troas. ^6 (O)We sailed from ^(P)Philippi after ^[d](Q)the days of Unleavened Bread, and reached them at ^(R)Troas within five days; and we stayed there for seven days.

⁷ On ^(S)the first day of the week, when ^(T)we were gathered together to ^(U)break bread, Paul began talking to them, intending to leave the next day, and he prolonged his ^[e]message until midnight. ⁸ There were many ^(V)lamps in the ^(W)upstairs room where we were gathered together. ⁹ And there was a young man named ^[f]Eutychus sitting ^[g]on the window sill, sinking into a deep sleep; and as Paul kept on talking, Eutychus was overcome by sleep and fell down from the third floor, and was picked up dead. ¹⁰ But Paul went down and ^(X)fell upon him, and after embracing him, he ^(Y)said, “^[h]Do not be troubled, for ^[i]he is still alive.” ¹¹ When Paul had gone back up and had ^(Z)broken the bread and ^[j]eaten, he talked with them a long while until daybreak, and then left. ¹² They took away the boy alive, and were ^[k]greatly comforted.

Troas to Miletus

¹³ But ^(AA)we went ahead to the ship and set sail for Assos, intending from there to take Paul on board; for that was what he had arranged, intending himself to go ^[l]by land. ¹⁴ And when he met us at Assos, we took him on board and came to Mitylene. ¹⁵ Sailing from there, we arrived the following day opposite Chios; and the next day we crossed over to Samos, and on the following day we came to ^(AB)Miletus. ¹⁶ For Paul had decided to sail past ^(AC)Ephesus so that he would not have to lose time in ^[m](AD)Asia; for he was hurrying, if it might be possible for him ^(AE)to be in Jerusalem ^(AF)the day of Pentecost.
