There was therefore great joy in that city. Now there was a certain man named Simon who before had been a magician in that city, seducing the people of Samaria, giving out that he was some great one:

10

cui auscultabant omnes a minimo usque ad maximum, dicentes: Hic est virtus Dei, quæ vocatur magna.

But when they had believed Philip preaching of the kingdom of God, in the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.

Then Simon himself believed also and, being baptized, he adhered to Philip. And being astonished, wondered to see the signs and exceeding great miracles which were done.

Cum autem audissent Apostoli qui erant Jerosolymis, quod recepisset Samaria verbum Dei, miserunt ad eos Petrum et Joannem.

Now, when the apostles, who were in Jerusalem, had heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John.

Qui cum venissent, oraverunt pro ipsis ut acciperent Spiritum Sanctum:

Who, when they were come, prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Ghost.

And when Simon saw that, by the imposition of the hands of the apostles, the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money,

Cum Simone autem vide quia per impositione manus de Apostolos da Spiritu Sancto, offer ad illos pecunia,

Saying: Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I shall lay my hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost. But Peter said to him:

Dicente: fate et ad me hoc potestate, ut et cuicum impone manus, accipe Spiritu Sancto. Petro autem dic ad illo:

20

Pecunia tua tecum sit in perditionem: quoniam donum Dei existimasti pecunia possideri.

Keep thy money to thyself, to perish with thee: because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.

Pecunia tuo tecum es in perditione: quia dono de Deo existima pecunia posside.

21

Non est tibi pars neque sors in sermone isto: cor enim tuum non est rectum coram Deo.

Thou hast no part nor lot in this matter. For thy heart is not right in the sight of God.

Angelus autem Domini locutus est ad Philippum, dicens: Surge, et vade contra meridianum, ad viam quæ descendit ab Jerusalem in Gazam: hæc est deserta.

Now an angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying: Arise, go towards the south, to the way that goeth down from Jerusalem into Gaza: this is desert.

Angelo autem de Domino locuto es ad Philippo, dicente: surge, et vade contra meridiano, ad via que descende ab Ierusalem in Gazase: hoc es desere.

And rising up, he went. And behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch, of great authority under Candace the queen of the Ethiopians, who had charge over all her treasures, had come to Jerusalem to adore.

Et surge i ab. Et ecce viro Aethiope, eunucho, potente de Candace de regina Aethiopo, qui es super omni gazas de illo, veni adora in Ierusalem:

28

et revertebatur sedens super currum suum, legensque Isaiam prophetam.

And he was returning, sitting in his chariot and reading Isaias the prophet.

And the Spirit said to Philip: Go near and join thyself to this chariot.

Spiritu autem dic ad Philippo: accede, et adiunga te ad curro isto.

30

Accurrens autem Philippus, audivit eum legentem Isaiam prophetam, et dixit: Putasne intelligis quæ legis?

And Philip running thither, heard him reading the prophet Isaias. And he said: Thinkest thou that thou understandest what thou readest?

Accurrente autem Philippo, audi illo lege Isaiase propheta, et dic: putasne intellege que de lege?

31

Qui ait: Et quomodo possum, si non aliquis ostenderit mihi? Rogavitque Philippum ut ascenderet, et sederet secum.

Who said: And how can I, unless some man shew me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him.

Qui dic: et quomodo pote, si non aliquo ostende ad me? Et roga Philippo ut ascende, et sede se.

Locus autem Scripturæ quem legebat, erat hic: Tamquam ovis ad occisionem ductus est: et sicut agnus coram tondente se, sine voce, sic non aperuit os suum.

And the place of the scripture which he was reading was this: He was led as a sheep to the slaughter: and like a lamb without voice before his shearer, so openeth he not his mouth.

Loco autem de Scriptura quem lege, hoc es: sicut oves ad occisione ducto es: et sicut agno coram tonde se, sine voce, sic non aperi ore suo.

33

In humilitate judicium ejus sublatum est. Generationem ejus quis enarrabit? quoniam tolletur de terra vita ejus.

In humility his judgment was taken away. His generation who shall declare, for his life shall be taken from the earth?

In humilitate iudicio de illo suffere es. Generatione de illo qui enarra? Quia vita de terra de illo tolle.

34

Respondens autem eunuchus Philippo, dixit: Obsecro te, de quo propheta dicit hoc? de se, an de alio aliquo?

And the eunuch answering Philip, said: I beseech thee, of whom doth the prophet speak this? Of himself, or of some other man?

Respondente autem eunucho ad Philippo, dic: obsecra te, de quo propheta dic hoc? De se, an de alio aliquo?

35

Aperiens autem Philippus os suum, et incipiens a Scriptura ista, evangelizavit illi Jesum.

Then Philip, opening his mouth and beginning at this scripture, preached unto him Jesus.

Aperi autem Philippo ore suo, et incipie ab Scriptura isto, evangeliza ad illo Iesu.

36

Et dum irent per viam, venerunt ad quamdam aquam: et ait eunuchus: Ecce aqua: quid prohibet me baptizari?

And as they went on their way, they came to a certain water. And the eunuch said: See, here is water: What doth hinder me from being baptized?

Et dum i per via, veni ad uno aqua: et dic eunucho: ecce aqua: quid prohibe me baptiza?

37

Dixit autem Philippus: Si credis ex toto corde, licet. Et respondens ait: Credo Filium Dei esse Jesum Christum.

And Philip said: If thou believest with all thy heart, thou mayest. And he answering, said: I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.

Philippo autem dic: si crede ex toto corde, lice. Et respondente dic: crede Filio de Deo es Iesu Christo.

38

Et jussit stare currum: et descenderunt uterque in aquam, Philippus et eunuchus, et baptizavit eum.

And he commanded the chariot to stand still. And they went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch. And he baptized him.

Et iube sta curro: et ambo descende in aqua, Philippo et eunucho, et baptiza illo.

Cum autem ascendissent de aqua, Spiritus Domini rapuit Philippum, et amplius non vidit eum eunuchus. Ibat autem per viam suam gaudens.

And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord took away Philip: and the eunuch saw him no more. And he went on his way rejoicing.

Cum autem ascende de aqua, Spiritu de Domino rape Philippo, et ample non eunucho vide illo. I autem per via suo gaude.
