27 And having risen up, he went. And behold, an Ethiopian eunuch, a potentate of Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who was over all her treasure, who had come to Jerusalem to worship.
28 And he was returning and sitting in his chariot, and he was reading the prophet Isaiah.
29 And the Spirit said to Philip, “Go near and join yourself to this chariot.”
30 And Philip having run up, heard him reading Isaiah the prophet and said, “Do you then understand what you are reading?”
31 And he said, “How indeed could I be able, unless someone will guide me?” And he invited Philip, having come up, to sit with him.
32 Now the passage of Scripture that he was reading was this: “He was led as a sheep to slaughter, and as a lamb before the one shearing him is silent, so He does not open His mouth.
33 In His humiliation, justice was taken away from Him. Who will describe His generation? For His life is removed from the earth.”
34 And the eunuch answering said to Philip, “I beseech you, concerning whom does the prophet say this? Concerning himself, or concerning some other?”
35 And Philip, having opened his mouth and having begun from this Scripture, proclaimed the good news to him—Jesus.
36 And as they were going along the road they came upon some water, and the eunuch says, “Behold, water! What prevents me to be baptized?”
37 38 And he commanded the chariot to stop. And they both went down to the water, both Philip and the eunuch, and he baptized him.
39 Now when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord carried away Philip, and the eunuch saw him no longer. For he went his way rejoicing.
