Acts 8:34-40 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

34. The official asked Philip, “Tell me, of whom is the prophet saying this? Of himself or of someone else?”

35. Then Philip began to speak; starting from this passage of scripture, he told him the Good News about Jesus.

36. As they travelled down the road, they came to a place where there was some water, and the official said, “Here is some water. What is to keep me from being baptized?”

38. The official ordered the carriage to stop, and both Philip and the official went down into the water, and Philip baptized him.

39. When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord took Philip away. The official did not see him again, but continued on his way, full of joy.

40. Philip found himself in Azotus; he went on to Caesarea, and on the way he preached the Good News in every town.
