32 This was the passage of Scripture he was reading: "Like a sheep he was led away to be slaughtered,and like a lamb is silent before its shearer,so he does not open his mouth.

33 In his humiliation, justice was denied him.Who can describe his generation?For his life is taken away from the earth."

34 The eunuch said to Philip, "I ask you, about whom is the prophet speaking—about himself or about someone else?"

35 Then Philip opened his mouth and, starting from this Scripture, told him the good news about Jesus.
