Acts 8:20-30

²⁰And Peter said unto him, 'Thy silver with thee — may it be to destruction! because the gift of God thou didst think to possess through money;

²¹thou hast neither part nor lot in this thing, for thy heart is not right before God;

²²reform, therefore, from this thy wickedness, and beseech God, if then the purpose of thy heart may be forgiven thee,

²³for in the gall of bitterness, and bond of unrighteousness, I perceive thee being.'

²⁴And Simon answering, said, 'Beseech ye for me unto the Lord, that nothing may come upon me of the things ye have spoken.'

²⁵They indeed, therefore, having testified fully, and spoken the word of the Lord, did turn back to Jerusalem; in many villages also of the Samaritans they did proclaim good news.

²⁶And a messenger of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, 'Arise, and go on toward the south, on the way that is going down from Jerusalem to Gaza,' — this is desert.

²⁷And having arisen, he went on, and lo, a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch, a man of rank, of Candace the queen of the Ethiopians, who was over all her treasure, who had come to worship to Jerusalem;

²⁸he was also returning, and is sitting on his chariot, and he was reading the prophet Isaiah.

²⁹And the Spirit said to Philip, 'Go near, and be joined to this chariot;'

³⁰and Philip having run near, heard him reading the prophet Isaiah, and said, 'Dost thou then know what thou dost read?'
