Acts 8:36-40
36As they wentG4198 alongG2596 the roadG3598 they cameG2064 to someG5100 waterG5204; and the eunuchG2135 saidG5346, “LookG2400! WaterG5204! 1WhatG5101 preventsG2967 me from being baptizedG907?”2
38And he orderedG2753 that the 3chariotG716 stopG2476; and they bothG297 wentG2597 downG2597 into the waterG5204, PhilipG5376 asG5037 wellG5037 as the eunuchG2135, and he baptizedG907 him.
39WhenG3753 they cameG305 upG305 out of the waterG5204, 4the SpiritG4151 of the LordG2962 snatchedG726 PhilipG5376 awayG726; and the eunuchG2135 noG3765 longerG3765 sawG3708 him, 5but wentG4198 on his wayG3598 rejoicingG5463.
40But PhilipG5376 6foundG2147 himself at 78AzotusG108, and as he passedG1330 throughG1330 he 9kept preachingG2097 the gospelG2097 to allG3956 the citiesG4172, untilG2193 he cameG2064 to 10CaesareaG2542.
