Act 8:25 Then indeed having earnestly testified and having spoken the Word of YAHWEH, they returned to Jerusalem, even having preached the good news to many villages of the Samaritans.
Act 8:26 But a cherub of YAHWEH spoke to Philip, saying, Rise up! Go to the South on the desert road that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.
Act 8:27 And he arose and went and met a certain faithful one who had come from Cush, an official of Candace, the queen of the Cushites, and he was an authority over all her treasures. And he had come to worship in Jerusalem.
Act 8:28 And he was returning. And sitting on his chariot he read the prophet Isaiah.
Act 8:29 And the Spirit said to Philip, Go near and join yourself to this chariot.
Act 8:30 And running near, Philip heard him reading the prophet Isaiah, and said, Indeed, do you know what you are reading?
Act 8:31 But he said, How am I able to comprehend unless someone instructs me? And he called Philip near, to come up to sit with him.
Act 8:32 And the content of the Scripture which he was reading was this: He was led as a lamb to the slaughter, and as an ewe before the shearer is silent, even so He did not open His mouth.
Act 8:33 He was led in His humiliation from His confinement and from judgment. And His generation, who will declare it, because His life has been taken from the earth? (Isa. 53:7, 8)
Act 8:34 And that faithful one said to Philip, I ask you, about whom does the prophet say this? About himself, or about some other one?
Act 8:35 And Phillip opening his mouth, began to preach from this scripture concerning our Master Yeshua.
Act 8:36 And as they were going along the highway they came on some water. And that faithful one said, Behold, water! What prevents me to mikvah?
Act 8:37 And Philip said, If you believe from all the heart, it is lawful. And answering he said, I believe Yeshua Messiah to be the Son of YAHWEH.
Act 8:38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still. And both went down into the water, both Philip and that faithful one to mikvah.
Act 8:39 But when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of YAHWEH caught away Philip. And that faithful one did not see him any more; for he went his way rejoicing.
