Then the LORD God made the man fall into a deep sleep, and while he was sleeping, he took out one of the man's ribs and closed up the flesh.

So David took the spear and the water jar from right beside Saul's head, and he and Abishai left. No one saw it or knew what had happened or even woke up---they were all sound asleep, because the LORD had sent a heavy sleep on them all.

Like a nightmare it disturbed my sleep.

I trembled and shuddered; my whole body shook with fear.

At night when people are asleep, God speaks in dreams and visions.

I was left there alone, watching this amazing vision. I had no strength left, and my face was so changed that no one could have recognized me.

When I heard his voice, I fell to the ground unconscious and lay there face downward.

A young man named Eutychus was sitting in the window, and as Paul kept on talking, Eutychus got sleepier and sleepier, until he finally went sound asleep and fell from the third story to the ground. When they picked him up, he was dead.

Remember that the LORD has chosen the righteous for his own, and he hears me when I call to him.

Offer the right sacrifices to the LORD, and put your trust in him.

Saul got up from the ground and opened his eyes, but could not see a thing. So they took him by the hand and led him into Damascus.

For three days he was not able to see, and during that time he did not eat or drink anything.
