|
|
12. But when they believed Philip preaching good tidings concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.

|
|
13. And Simon also himself believed: and being baptized, he continued with Philip; and beholding signs and great miracles wrought, he was amazed.
|
13. Then G1161 Simon G4613 himself G846 believed G4100 also G2532 : and G2532 when he was baptized G907 , he continued G2258 G4342 with Philip G5376 , and G5037 wondered G1839 , beholding G2334 the G3173 miracles G1411 and G2532 signs G4592 which were done G1096 .

|
|
15. who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Spirit:
|
15. Who G3748 , when they were come down G2597 , prayed G4336 for G4012 them G846 , that G3704 they might receive G2983 the Holy G40 Ghost G4151 :
|
|
16. for as yet it was fallen upon none of them: only they had been baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus.
|
16. ( For G1063 as yet G3768 he was G2258 fallen G1968 upon G1909 none G3762 of them G846 G1161 : only G3440 they were G5225 baptized G907 in G1519 the G3588 name G3686 of the G3588 Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 .)
|
|
17. Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.
|
17. Then G5119 laid G2007 they their hands G5495 on G1909 them G846 , and G2532 they received G2983 the Holy G40 Ghost G4151 .
|
|
18. Now when Simon saw that through the laying on of the apostles hands the Holy Spirit was given, he offered them money,

|
|
19. saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay my hands, he may receive the Holy Spirit.
|
19. Saying G3004 , Give G1325 me also G2504 this G5026 power G1849 , that G2443 on whomsoever G3739 G302 I lay G2007 hands G5495 , he may receive G2983 the Holy G40 Ghost G4151 .
|
|
20. But Peter said unto him, Thy silver perish with thee, because thou hast thought to obtain the gift of God with money.
|
20. But G1161 Peter G4074 said G2036 unto G4314 him G846 , Thy G4675 money G694 perish G1498 G1519 G684 with G4862 thee G4671 , because G3754 thou hast thought G3543 that the G3588 gift G1431 of God G2316 may be purchased G2932 with G1223 money G5536 .
|
|
21. Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right before God.
|
21. Thou G4671 hast G2076 neither G3756 part G3310 nor G3761 lot G2819 in G1722 this G5129 matter G3056 : for G1063 thy G4675 heart G2588 is G2076 not G3756 right G2117 in the sight G1799 of God G2316 .
|
|
22. Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray the Lord, if perhaps the thought of thy heart shall be forgiven thee.
|
22. Repent G3340 therefore G3767 of G575 this G5026 thy G4675 wickedness G2549 , and G2532 pray G1189 God G2316 , if G1487 perhaps G686 the G3588 thought G1963 of thine G4675 heart G2588 may be forgiven G863 thee G4671 .
|
|
23. For I see that thou art in the gall of bitterness and in the bond of iniquity.
|
23. For G1063 I perceive G3708 that thou G4571 art G5607 in G1519 the gall G5521 of bitterness G4088 , and G2532 in the bond G4886 of iniquity G93 .
|
|
24. And Simon answered and said, Pray ye for me to the Lord, that none of the things which ye have spoken come upon me.
|
24. Then G1161 answered G611 Simon G4613 , and said G2036 , Pray G1189 ye G5210 to G4314 the G3588 Lord G2962 for G5228 me G1700 , that G3704 none G3367 of these things which G3739 ye have spoken G2046 come G1904 upon G1909 me G1691 .
|
|
25. They therefore, when they had testified and spoken the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the gospel to many villages of the Samaritans.
|
25. And G3767 they G3588 , when they G3303 G3767 had testified G1263 and G2532 preached G2980 the G3588 word G3056 of the G3588 Lord G2962 , returned G5290 to G1519 Jerusalem G2419 , and G5037 preached the gospel G2097 in many G4183 villages G2968 of the G3588 Samaritans G4541 .
|
|
26. But an angel of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza: the same is desert.
|
26. And G1161 the angel G32 of the Lord G2962 spake G2980 unto G4314 Philip G5376 , saying G3004 , Arise G450 , and G2532 go G4198 toward G2596 the south G3314 unto G1909 the G3588 way G3598 that goeth down G2597 from G575 Jerusalem G2419 unto G1519 Gaza G1048 , which G3778 is G2076 desert G2048 .
|
|
27. And he arose and went: and behold, a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch of great authority under Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, who was over all her treasure, who had come to Jerusalem to worship;
|
27. And G2532 he arose G450 and G2532 went G4198 : and G2532 , behold G2400 , a man G435 of Ethiopia G128 , an eunuch G2135 of great authority G1413 under Candace G2582 queen G938 of the Ethiopians G128 , who G3739 had the charge G2258 G1909 of all G3956 her G848 treasure G1047 , and G2532 had G3739 come G2064 to G1519 Jerusalem G2419 for to worship G4352 ,
|
|
28. and he was returning and sitting in his chariot, and was reading the prophet Isaiah.
|
28. G5037 Was G2258 returning G5290 , and G2532 sitting G2521 in G1909 his G848 chariot G716 G2532 read G314 Isaiah G2268 the G3588 prophet G4396 .
|
|
29. And the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot.
|
29. Then G1161 the G3588 Spirit G4151 said G2036 unto Philip G5376 , Go near G4334 , and G2532 join thyself G2853 to this G5129 chariot G716 .
|
|
30. And Philip ran to him, and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest?
|
30. And G1161 Philip G5376 ran thither G4370 to him, and heard G191 him G846 read G314 the G3588 prophet G4396 Isaiah, G2268 and G2532 said G2036 G687 G1065 , Understandest G1097 thou what G3739 thou readest G314 ?
|
|
31. And he said, How can I, except some one shall guide me? And he besought Philip to come up and sit with him.
|
31. And G1161 he G3588 said G2036 G1063 , How G4459 can G1410 G302 I, except G3362 some man G5100 should guide G3594 me G3165 ? And G5037 he desired G3870 Philip G5376 that he would come up G305 and sit G2523 with G4862 him G846 .
|
|
32. Now the passage of the Scripture which he was reading was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; And as a lamb before his shearer is dumb, So he openeth not his mouth:
|
32. G1161 The G3588 place G4042 of the G3588 Scripture G1124 which G3739 he read G314 was G2258 this G3778 , He was led G71 as G5613 a sheep G4263 to G1909 the slaughter G4967 ; and G2532 like G5613 a lamb G286 dumb G880 before G1726 his G846 shearer G2751 , so G3779 opened G455 he not G3756 his G848 mouth G4750 :
|
|
33. In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: His generation who shall declare? For his life is taken from the earth.
|
33. In G1722 his G846 humiliation G5014 his G846 judgment G2920 was taken away G142 : and G1161 who G5101 shall declare G1334 his G846 generation G1074 ? for G3754 his G846 life G2222 is taken G142 from G575 the G3588 earth G1093 .
|
|
34. And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other?
|
34. And G1161 the G3588 eunuch G2135 answered G611 Philip G5376 , and said G2036 , I pray G1189 thee G4675 , of G4012 whom G5101 speaketh G3004 the G3588 prophet G4396 this G5124 ? of G4012 himself G1438 , or G2228 of G4012 some other man G5101 G2087 ?
|
|
35. And Philip opened his mouth, and beginning from this Scripture, preached unto him Jesus.
|
35. Then G1161 Philip G5376 opened G455 his G848 mouth G4750 , and G2532 began G756 at G575 the same G5026 Scripture G1124 , and preached G2097 unto him G846 Jesus G2424 .
|
|
36. And as they went on the way, they came unto a certain water; and the eunuch saith, Behold, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?
|
36. And G1161 as G5613 they went G4198 on G2596 their way G3598 , they came G2064 unto G1909 a certain G5100 water G5204 : and G2532 the G3588 eunuch G2135 said G5346 , See G2400 , here is water G5204 ; what G5101 doth hinder G2967 me G3165 to be baptized G907 ?
|
|
37. And Philip said, If thou believest with all thy heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
|
37. And G1161 Philip G5376 said G2036 , If G1487 thou believest G4100 with G1537 all G3650 thine heart G2588 , thou mayest G1832 . And G1161 he answered G611 and said G2036 , I believe G4100 that Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 is G1511 the G3588 Son G5207 of God G2316 .
|
|
38. And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they both went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch, and he baptized him.
|
38. And G2532 he commanded G2753 the G3588 chariot G716 to stand still G2476 : and G2532 they went down G2597 both G297 into G1519 the G3588 water G5204 , both G5037 Philip G5376 and G2532 the G3588 eunuch G2135 ; and G2532 he baptized G907 him G846 .
|
|
39. And when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip; and the eunuch saw him no more, for he went on his way rejoicing.
|
39. And G1161 when G3753 they were come up G305 out of G1537 the G3588 water G5204 , the Spirit G4151 of the Lord G2962 caught away G726 Philip G5376 , that G2532 the G3588 eunuch G2135 G3756 saw G1492 him G846 no more G3765 : and G1063 he went G4198 on his G848 way G3598 rejoicing G5463 .
|
|
40. But Philip was found at Azotus: and passing through he preached the gospel to all the cities, till he came to Caesarea.
|
40. But G1161 Philip G5376 was found G2147 at G1519 Azotus G108 : and G2532 passing through G1330 he preached G2097 in all G3956 the G3588 cities G4172 , till G2193 he G846 came G2064 to G1519 Caesarea G2542 .
