25SoG3767, when they had solemnlyG1263 1testifiedG1263 and spokenG2980 2the wordG3056 of the LordG2962, they startedG5290 backG5290 to JerusalemG2414, and were 3preachingG2097 the gospelG2097 to manyG4183 villagesG2968 of the 4SamaritansG4541.
26But 5an angelG32 of the LordG2962 spokeG2980 to 6PhilipG5376 sayingG3004, “GetG450 up and goG4198 southG3314 to the roadG3598 that descendsG2597 from JerusalemG2419 to 7GazaG1048.” (8ThisG3778 is a desertG2048 road.) 27SoG2532 he gotG450 up and wentG4198; and 9there was an EthiopianG128 eunuchG2135, a courtG1413 officialG1413 of CandaceG2582, queenG938 of the EthiopiansG128, whoG3739 was in chargeG1909 of allG3956 her treasureG1047; and he 10had comeG2064 to JerusalemG2419 to worshipG4352, 28and he was returningG5290 and sittingG2521 in his 11chariotG716, and was readingG314 the prophetG4396 IsaiahG2268. 29ThenG2532 12the SpiritG4151 saidG3004 to PhilipG5376, “GoG4334 up and joinG2853 thisG3778 13chariotG716.” 30PhilipG5376 ranG4370 up and heardG191 him readingG314 IsaiahG2268 the prophetG4396, and saidG3004, “Do you understandG1097 whatG3739 you are readingG314?” 31And he saidG3004, “WellG1063, howG4459 couldG1410 I, unlessG1437G3361 someoneG5100 guidesG3594 me?” And he invitedG3870 PhilipG5376 to comeG305 up and sitG2523 with him.
