Acts 8 :: Legacy Standard Bible (LSB)

Therefore ^G3767, those ^G3588 who had been scattered ^G1289 went ^G1330 about ^G1330, proclaiming ^G2097 the good ^G2097 news ^G2097 of the word ^G3056.

Now ^G1161 there was a man ^G435 named ^G3686 Simon ^G4613, who formerly ^G4391 was practicing ^G3096 magic ^G3096 in the city ^G4172 and astounding ^G1839 the people ^G1484 of Samaria ^G4540, claiming ^G3004 to be someone ^G5100 great ^G3173;

Now ^G1161 when the apostles ^G652 in Jerusalem ^G2414 heard ^G191 that Samaria ^G4540 had received ^G1209 the word ^G3056 of God ^G2316, they sent ^G649 them Peter ^G4074 and John ^G2491,

So ^G3767, when they had solemnly ^G1263 borne ^G1263 witness ^G1263 and spoken ^G2980 the word ^G3056 of the Lord ^G2962, they started ^G5290 back ^G5290 to Jerusalem ^G2414, and were proclaiming ^G2097 the gospel ^G2097 to many ^G4183 villages ^G2968 of the Samaritans ^G4541.

But an angel ^G32 of the [fn]Lord ^G2962 spoke ^G2980 to Philip ^G5376 saying ^G3004, “Rise ^G450 up ^G450 and go ^G4198 south ^G3314 to the road ^G3598 that descends ^G2597 from Jerusalem ^G2419 to Gaza ^G1048.” ([fn]This ^G3778 is a desert ^G2048 road.)

“AS A SHEEP ^G4263 IS LED ^G71 TO SLAUGHTER ^G4967;

AND AS A LAMB ^G286 BEFORE ^G1726 ITS SHEARER ^G2751 IS SILENT ^G880,

SO ^G3779 HE DOES NOT OPEN ^G455 HIS MOUTH ^G4750.

“IN HUMILIATION ^G5014 HIS JUDGMENT ^G2920 WAS TAKEN ^G142 AWAY ^G142;

WHO ^G5101 WILL [fn]RECOUNT ^G1334 HIS [fn]GENERATION ^G1074?

FOR HIS LIFE ^G2222 IS REMOVED ^G142 FROM THE EARTH ^G1093.”

And the eunuch ^G2135 answered ^G611 Philip ^G5376 and said ^G3004, “I ask ^G1189 you earnestly ^G1189, of whom ^G5101 does the prophet ^G4396 say ^G3004 this ^G3778? Of himself ^G1438 or ^G2228 of someone ^G5100 else ^G2087?”
