Deeds (Act) of Apostles 8:29-39

²⁹And the Spirit said to Philip, Nigh thou, and join thee to this chariot. (And the Spirit said to Philip, Approach him, and join thyself to this chariot.)

³⁰And Philip ran to, and heard him reading Esaias, the prophet, (or And Philip ran over, and heard him reading the prophet Isaiah). And he said, Guessest thou, whether thou understandest, what things thou readest?

³¹And he said, How may I, if no man show to me? And he prayed Philip (or And he beseeched Philip), that he should come up, and sit with him.

³²And the place of the scripture that he read, was this, As a sheep he was led to slaying, and as a lamb before a man that sheareth him is dumb without voice, so he opened not his mouth.

³³In meekness his doom was taken up; who shall tell out the generation(s) of him? For his life shall be taken away from the earth. (He was humbled, or He was humiliated, and was denied justice; now who can tell out about his descendants? For his life was taken away from the earth.)

³⁴And the gelding answered to Philip, and said (or And the eunuch said to Philip), I beseech thee, of what prophet saith he this thing? of himself, or of any other?

³⁵And Philip opened his mouth, and began at this scripture, and preached or evangelized to him (about) Jesus.

³⁶And while they went by the way, they came to a water or they came to some water. And the gelding said, Lo! water; who forbiddeth me to be baptized?

³⁷And Philip said, If thou believest of all thine heart, it is leaveful, (or And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, it is lawful). And he answered, and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.

³⁸And he commanded the chariot to stand still. And they went down both into the water, Philip and the gelding, and Philip baptized him, (or And they both went down into the water, Philip and the eunuch, and Philip baptized him).

³⁹And when they were come up (out) of the water, the Spirit of the Lord ravished (or snatched up) Philip, and the gelding saw him no more; and he went in his way joying (or and he went on his way rejoicing).
