25. And they, when they had testified and preached the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the gospel in many villages of the Samaritans.
26. And the angel of the Lord spoke unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goes down from Jerusalem unto Gaza, which is desert.
27. And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem to worship,
28. Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Isaiah the prophet.
29. Then the Spirit said unto Philip,
30. And Philip ran to him, and heard him read the prophet Isaiah, and said, Do you understand what you read?
31. And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him.
32. The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth:
33. In his humiliation his justice was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth.
34. And the eunuch asked Philip, and said, I pray you, of whom speaks the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man?
