And the Spirit said to Philip, Go near, and be joined to this chariot. And after running near, Philip heard him reading the prophet Isaiah. And he said, Do thou also really understand the things that thou read? And he said, For how can I unless some man may guide me? And he encouraged Philip, after coming up, to sit with him. Now the passage of the Scripture that he was reading was this: He was led as a sheep to slaughter, and as a lamb, mute before shearing him, thus he opened not his mouth. In his lowly condition his justice was taken away. And who will describe his generation, because his life was taken from the earth? And having answered, the eunuch said to Philip, I ask thee, about whom does the prophet say this, about himself, or about some other man? And Philip having opened his mouth, and having begun from this Scripture, he preached the good-news to him--the man Jesus. And as they went on the way, they came to some water, and the eunuch says, Look, water! What prevents me to be immersed? [This verse in not in the majority of the manuscripts.] And he commanded the chariot to stand still. And they both went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch, and he immersed him. And when they came up out of the water, Spirit of Lord caught away Philip, and the eunuch saw him no more, for he went on his way rejoicing.
