Acts 8:4-8
New American Standard Bible
4 Therefore, those who had been scattered went through places[a]preaching the word. 5 Philip went down to the city of Samaria and began proclaiming the [b]Christ to them. 6 The crowds were paying attention with one mind to what was being said by Philip, as they heard and saw the [c]signs which he was performing. 7 For in the case of many who had unclean spirits, they were coming out of them shouting with a loud voice; and many who had been paralyzed or limped on crutches were healed. 8 So there was much rejoicing in that city.
Acts 8:26-40
New American Standard Bible
“He was led like a sheep to slaughter;
And like a lamb that is silent before its shearer,
So He does not open His mouth.
33 In humiliation His justice was taken away;
Who will [g]describe His [h]generation?
For His life is taken away from the earth.”
34 The eunuch answered Philip and said, “Please tell me, of whom does the prophet say this? Of himself, or of someone else?” 35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and beginning from this Scripture he preached Jesus to him. 36 As they went along the road they came to some water; and the eunuch *said, “Look! Water! What prevents me from being baptized?”[i] 38 And he ordered that the [j]chariot stop; and they both went down into the water, Philip as well as the eunuch, and he baptized him. 39 When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord snatched Philip away; and the eunuch no longer saw him, [k]but went on his way rejoicing. 40 But Philip [l]found himself at [m]Azotus, and as he passed through he kept preaching the gospel to all the cities, until he came to Caesarea.
