Paul’s Last Visit to Troas

On the first day of the week,[a] we all met together to break bread.[b] Paul spoke to the group. Because he was planning to leave the next day, he kept on talking till midnight. We were all together in a room upstairs, and there were many lamps in the room. A young man named Eutychus was sitting in the window.
