27 And arising, he went; and behold, a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch, a court official of Candace the queen of the Ethiopians, who was over all her treasury, and had come to Jerusalem worshipping,
28 and he was returning. And sitting upon his chariot, he was reading the prophet Isaiah.
29 Then the Spirit said to Philip, "Go near, and join yourself to this chariot."
30 And Phillip, running up to it, heard him reading the prophet Isaiah, and said, "Indeed, do you know what you are reading?"
31 And he said, "How can I, if not someone guides me?" And he urged Philip to come up and sit with him.
32 Now the portion of the Scripture which he was reading was this: "He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and as a lamb before its shearer is silent, thus He opened not His mouth.
33 In His humiliation His justice was taken away, and who will recount His generation? For His life is taken away from the earth."
34 So the eunuch answered Philip and said, "I ask you, of whom does the prophet say this; about himself, or about some other person?"
35 And Philip, opening his mouth, and beginning from this Scripture, preached the good news about Jesus to him.
