24And Simon, answering, said, Make prayer for me to the Lord, so that these things which you have said may not come on me.
25So they, having given their witness and made clear the word of the Lord, went back to Jerusalem, giving the good news on their way in a number of the small towns of Samaria.
26But an angel of the Lord said to Philip, Get up, and go to the south, to the road which goes from Jerusalem to Gaza, through the waste land.
27And he went and there was a man of Ethiopia, a servant of great authority under Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, and controller of all her property, who had come up to Jerusalem for worship;
28He was going back, seated in his carriage, and was reading the book of the prophet Isaiah.
29And the Spirit said to Philip, Go near, and get on his carriage.
30And Philip, running up to him, saw that he was reading Isaiah the prophet, and said to him, Is the sense of what you are reading clear to you?
