Acts 8:32-35

Philip and the Ethiopian Eunuch

32 Now the passage of the Scripture that he was reading was this:
u "Like a sheep he was led to the slaughter
and like a lamb before its shearer is silent,
so he opens not his mouth.
33 In his v humiliation justice was denied him.
Who can describe his generation?
For his life is taken away from the earth."

34 And the eunuch said to Philip, "About whom, I ask you, does the prophet say this, about himself or about someone else?" 35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and w beginning with this Scripture x he told him the good news about Jesus.
