Acts 8:27-39
27AndG2532 he aroseG450 and wentG4198: andG2532, beholdG3708, a manG435 of EthiopiaG128, an eunuchG2135 of great authorityG1413 under CandaceG2582 queenG3588G938 of the EthiopiansG128, whoG3739 hadG1510 the charge ofG1909 allG3956 herG846 treasureG3588G1047, and had comeG2064 toG1519 JerusalemG2419 for to worshipG4352,
28WasG1510 returningG5290, andG2532 sittingG2521 inG1909 hisG846 chariotG3588G716 readG314 IsaiahG2268 the prophetG3588G4396.
29ThenG1161 the SpiritG3588G4151 saidG3004 unto PhilipG3588G5376, Go nearG4334, andG2532 join thyselfG2853 to thisG3778 chariotG3588G716.
30AndG1161 PhilipG3588G5376 ran thitherG4370 to him, and heardG191 himG846 readG314 the prophetG3588G4396 IsaiahG2268, andG2532 saidG3004, Understandest thouG1097 whatG3739 thou readestG314?
31AndG1161 he saidG3588G3004, HowG4459 can IG1410, exceptG1437G3361 some manG5100 should guideG3594 meG1473? AndG5037 he desiredG3870 PhilipG3588G5376 that he would come upG305 and sitG2523 withG4862 himG846.
32The placeG4042 of the scriptureG3588G1124 whichG3739 he readG314 wasG1510 thisG3778, He was ledG71 asG5613 a sheepG4263 toG1909 the slaughterG4967; andG2532 likeG5613 a lambG286 dumbG880 beforeG1726 hisG846 shearerG2751, soG3779 opened heG455 notG3756 hisG846 mouthG3588G4750:
33InG1722 hisG846 humiliationG3588G5014 hisG846 judgmentG3588G2920 was taken awayG142: andG1161 whoG5101 shall declareG1334 hisG846 generationG1074? forG3754 hisG846 lifeG3588G2222 is takenG142 fromG575 the earthG3588G1093.
34AndG1161 the eunuchG3588G2135 answeredG611 PhilipG3588G5376, and saidG3004, I prayG1189 theeG4771, ofG4012 whomG5101 speakethG3004 the prophetG3588G4396 thisG3778? ofG4012 himselfG1438, orG2228 ofG4012 someG5100 other manG2087?
35ThenG1161 PhilipG3588G5376 openedG455 hisG846 mouthG3588G4750, andG2532 beganG756 atG575 the sameG3778 scriptureG3588G1124, and preachedG2097 unto himG846 JesusG3588G2424.
36AndG1161 asG5613 they wentG4198 onG2596 their wayG3588G3598, they cameG2064 untoG1909 a certainG5100 waterG5204: andG2532 the eunuchG3588G2135 saidG5346, SeeG3708, here is waterG5204; whatG5101 doth hinderG2967 meG1473 to be baptizedG907?
37AndG1161 PhilipG3588G5376 saidG3004, IfG1487 thou believestG4100 withG1537 allG3650 thine heartG3588G2588, thou mayestG1832. And he answeredG611 andG1161 saidG3004, I believeG4100 that JesusG3588G2424 ChristG5547 isG1510 the SonG3588G5207 of GodG3588G2316.
38AndG2532 he commandedG2753 the chariotG3588G716 to stand stillG2476: andG2532 they went downG2597 bothG297 intoG1519 the waterG3588G5204, bothG5037 PhilipG5376 andG2532 the eunuchG3588G2135; andG2532 he baptizedG907 himG846.
39AndG1161 whenG3753 they were come upG305 out ofG1537 the waterG3588G5204, the SpiritG4151 of the LordG2962 caught awayG726 PhilipG3588G5376, thatG2532 the eunuchG3588G2135 sawG3708 himG846 no moreG3765: andG1063 he wentG4198 on hisG846 wayG3588G3598 rejoicingG5463.
