Acts 8:30-37
New American Standard Bible 1995
30 Philip ran up and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet, and said, “Do you understand what you are reading?” 31 And he said, “Well, how could I, unless someone guides me?” And he invited Philip to come up and sit with him. 32 Now the passage of Scripture which he was reading was this:
“(A)He was led as a sheep to slaughter;
And as a lamb before its shearer is silent,
So He does not open His mouth.
33 “(B)In humiliation His judgment was taken away;
Who will [a]relate His [b]generation?
For His life is removed from the earth.”
34 The eunuch answered Philip and said, “Please tell me, of whom does the prophet say this? Of himself or of someone else?” 35 Then Philip (C)opened his mouth, and (D)beginning from this Scripture he (E)preached Jesus to him. 36 As they went along the road they came to some water; and the eunuch *said, “Look! Water! (F)What prevents me from being baptized?” 37 [[c]And Philip said, “If you believe with all your heart, you may.” And he answered and said, “I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.”]
