Acts:8:26-40

nasb@Acts:8:26 @But an angel of the Lord spoke to Philip saying, "Get up and go south to the road that descends from Jerusalem to Gaza." (This is a desert road.)

nasb@Acts:8:27 @So he got up and went; and there was an Ethiopian eunuch, a court official of Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, who was in charge of all her treasure; and he had come to Jerusalem to worship,

nasb@Acts:8:28 @and he was returning and sitting in his chariot, and was reading the prophet Isaiah.

nasb@Acts:8:29 @Then the Spirit said to Philip, "Go up and join this chariot."

nasb@Acts:8:30 @Philip ran up and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet, and said, "Do you understand what you are reading?"

nasb@Acts:8:31 @And he said, "Well, how could I, unless someone guides me?" And he invited Philip to come up and sit with him.

nasb@Acts:8:32 @Now the passage of Scripture which he was reading was this- " HE WAS LED AS A SHEEP TO SLAUGHTER; AND AS A LAMB BEFORE ITS SHEARER IS SILENT, SO HE DOES NOT OPEN HIS MOUTH.

nasb@Acts:8:33" @ IN HUMILIATION HIS JUDGMENT WAS TAKEN AWAY; WHO WILL RELATE HIS GENERATION? FOR HIS LIFE IS REMOVED FROM THE EARTH."

nasb@Acts:8:34 @The eunuch answered Philip and said, "Please tell me, of whom does the prophet say this? Of himself or of someone else?"

nasb@Acts:8:35 @Then Philip opened his mouth, and beginning from this Scripture he preached Jesus to him.

nasb@Acts:8:36 @As they went along the road they came to some water; and the eunuch said, "Look! Water! What prevents me from being baptized?"

nasb@Acts:8:37 @[ And Philip said, "If you believe with all your heart, you may." And he answered and said, "I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God."]

nasb@Acts:8:38 @And he ordered the chariot to stop; and they both went down into the water, Philip as well as the eunuch, and he baptized him.

nasb@Acts:8:39 @When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord snatched Philip away; and the eunuch no longer saw him, but went on his way rejoicing.

nasb@Acts:8:40 @But Philip found himself at Azotus, and as he passed through he kept preaching the gospel to all the cities until he came to Caesarea.
