26 And an agent of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south to the road that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza. This is a desolate region.
27 And after rising, he went. And behold a man, an Ethiopian, a eunuch, a high official of Candace the queen of the Ethiopians, who was over all her treasure, who had come to Jerusalem to worship.
28 And he was returning, and sitting in his chariot, and reading the prophet Isaiah.
29 And the Spirit said to Philip, Go near, and be joined to this chariot.
30 And after running near, Philip heard him reading the prophet Isaiah. And he said, Do thou also really understand the things that thou read?
31 And he said, For how can I unless some man may guide me? And he encouraged Philip, after coming up, to sit with him.
