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:

33 In his humiliation his judgment was taken away:

His generation who shall declare?

For his life is taken from the earth.

34 And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other? 35 And Philip opened his mouth, and beginning from this scripture, preached unto him Jesus.

32 Now the place in the book where he was reading was this: He was taken, like a sheep, to be put to death; and as a lamb is quiet when its wool is being cut, so he made no sound:

33 Being of low degree, his cause was not given a hearing: who has knowledge of his family? for his life is cut off from the earth.

34 And the Ethiopian said to Philip, About whom are these words said by the prophet? about himself, or some other?

35 So Philip, starting from this writing, gave him the good news about Jesus.
