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 Locul din Scriptură, pe care -l citea, era acesta: ,,El a fost dus ca o oaie la tăiere; şi, ca un miel fără glas înaintea celui ce -l tunde, aşa nu Şi -a deschis gura;

33 în smerenia Lui, judecata I -a fost luată. Şi cine va zugrăvi pe cei din timpul Lui? Căci viaţa I -a fost luată de pe pămînt.

34 Famenul a zis lui Filip: ,,Rogu-te, despre cine vorbeşte proorocul astfel? Despre sine sau despre vreun altul?

35 Atunci Filip a luat cuvîntul, a început dela Scriptura aceasta, şi i -a propovăduit pe Isus.
