And when they had come in, they went up into an upper room, in which dwelt Peter and James, and John and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphasus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James.

And the speech pleased the whole multitude; and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, and Philip and Prochorus and Nicanor and Timon and Parmenas, and Nicolas, a proselyte of Antioch,

And Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached the Christ to them.

And the multitudes with one mind gave heed to the things which were spoken by Philip, when they heard, and saw the signs which he did.

But when they believed Philip, who preached the good news concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were immersed, both men and women.

And Simon himself also believed; and after he was immersed, he continued with Philip; and, seeing the mighty deeds and the signs which were done, he was astonished.

And an angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying: Arise, and go toward the south, to the road that leads from Jerusalem to Gaza; this is desert.

And the Spirit said to Philip: Go forward and join your self to this chariot.

And Philip ran forward, and heard him reading the prophet Isaiah; and he said: Do you understand what you are reading?

He answered: How can I, unless some one instruct me? And he invited Philip to come up and sit with him.

And the eunuch answered Philip, and said: I pray you, of whom speaks the prophet this? Of himself, or of some other man?

And Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached to him Jesus.

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, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip; and the eunuch saw him no more, for he went on his way rejoicing.

But Philip was found at Azotus, and, passing through, he preached the gospel in all the cities, till he came to Caesarea

and thence to Philippi, which is the first city of that part of Macedonia, and a colony. We remained in that city some days:

But we sailed from Philippi, after the days of unleavened bread, and came to them at Troas in five days, where we remained seven days.

On the following day we departed, and came to Caesarea, and went into the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven; and we remained with him.
