Acts 20:9-12

9 And there was a young man named Eutychus sitting on the window sill, sinking into a deep sleep; and as Paul kept on talking, he was overcome by sleep and fell down from the third floor and was picked up dead.
10 But Paul went down and 1fell upon him, and after embracing him, he 2said, "Do not be troubled, for his life is in him."
11 When he had gone back up and had 3broken the bread and eaten, he talked with them a long while until daybreak, and then left.
12 They took away the boy alive, and were greatly * comforted.
