32 And the passage of the scripture which he read was this: He was led as a sheep to slaughter, and as a lamb is dumb in presence of him that shears him, thus he opens not his mouth.

33 In his humiliation his judgment has been taken away, and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth.

34 And the eunuch answering Philip said, I pray thee, concerning whom does the prophet say this? of himself or of some other?

35 And Philip, opening his mouth and beginning from that scripture, announced the glad tidings of Jesus to him.

32 Or le passage de l'Ecriture qu'il lisait était celui-ci : il a été mené comme une brebis à la boucherie, et comme un agneau muet devant celui qui le tond; en sorte qu'il n'a point ouvert sa bouche.

33 En son abaissement son jugement a été haussé; mais qui racontera sa durée? car sa vie est enlevée de la terre.

34 Et l'Eunuque prenant la parole, dit à Philippe : je te prie, de qui est-ce que le Prophète dit cela : est-ce de lui-même, ou de quelque autre?

35 Alors Philippe ouvrant sa bouche, et commençant par cette Ecriture, lui annonça Jésus.
