29. The Holy Spirit told Philip, "Go to that chariot. Stay near it."
30. So Philip ran up to the chariot. He heard the man reading Isaiah the prophet. "Do you understand what you're reading?" Philip asked.
31. "How can I?" he said. "I need someone to explain it to me." So he invited Philip to come up and sit with him.
32. Here is the part of Scripture the official was reading. It says, "He was led like a sheep to be killed. Just as lambs are silent while their wool is being cut off, he did not open his mouth.
33. When he was treated badly, he was refused a fair trial. Who can say anything about his children? His life was cut off from the earth." (Isaiah 53:7,8)
