Acts 8
1 Saul now was there consenting to the killing of him. Arose then on that [very] day a persecution great against the church which [was] in Jerusalem; All (then *N(k)O*) were scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria except the apostles.
Saulus autem erat consentiens neci eius. Facta est autem in illa die persecutio magna in Ecclesia, quæ erat Ierosolymis, et omnes dispersi sunt per regiones Iudææ, et Samariæ præter Apostolos.
2 Buried now Stephen men devout and (they made *N(k)O*) lamentation great over him.
Curaverunt autem Stephanum viri timorati, et fecerunt planctum magnum super eum.
3 Saul however was destroying the church by houses entering, dragging off then men and women he was delivering [them] to prison.
Saulus autem devastabat Ecclesiam per domos intrans, et trahens viros, ac mulieres, tradebat in custodiam.
4 Those indeed therefore having been scattered they went about evangelising the word.
Igitur qui dispersi erant pertransibant, evangelizantes verbum Dei.
5 Philip now having gone down to (the *no*) city of Samaria was proclaiming to them the Christ.
Philippus autem descendens in civitatem Samariæ, prædicabant illis Christum.
6 Were giving heed (now *N(k)O*) the crowds to the [things] being spoken by Philip with one accord in the [time] to hear them and to see the signs that he was performing;
Intendebant autem turbæ his, quæ a Philippo dicebantur unanimiter audientes, et videntes signa quæ faciebat.
7 (many *N(k)O*) for of those having spirits unclean crying voice in a loud (were coming out, *N(k)O*) many now paralyzed and lame were healed;
Multi enim eorum, qui habebant spiritus immundos, clamantes voce magna exibant. Multi autem paralytici, et claudi curati sunt.
8 (and *k*) There was (then *no*) (much *N(k)O*) joy in the city that.
Factum est ergo gaudium magnum in illa civitate.
9 A man now certain named Simon was formerly in the city practicing sorcery and amazing the people of Samaria declaring to be someone himself great;
Vir autem quidam nomine Simon, qui ante fuerat in civitate magnus, seducens gentem Samariæ, dicens se esse aliquem magnum:
10 to whom were giving heed all from small until great saying; This [one] is the power of God which (is called *NO*) Great.
cui auscultabant omnes a minimo usque ad maximum, dicentes: Hic est virtus Dei, quæ vocatur magna.
11 They were giving heed now to him because the long time with the magic arts to have amazed them;
Attendebant autem eum: propter quod multo tempore magiis suis dementasset eos.
12 When however they believed Philip evangelising (*k*) concerning the kingdom of God and the name (*k*) of Jesus Christ, they were baptized men both and women.
Cum vero credidissent Philippo evangelizanti de regno Dei, in nomine Iesu Christi baptizabantur viri, ac mulieres.
13 And Simon also himself believed, and having been baptized he was steadfastly continuing with Philip, Beholding then [the] signs and miracles great being performed he was amazed.
Tunc Simon et ipse credidit: et cum baptizatus esset, adhærebat Philippo. Videns etiam signa, et virtutes maximas fieri, stupens admirabatur.
14 Having heard now the in Jerusalem apostles that has received Samaria the word of God, they sent to them (*k*) Peter and John;
Cum autem audissent Apostoli, qui erant Ierosolymis, quod recepisset Samaria verbum Dei, miserunt ad eos Petrum, et Ioannem:
15 who having come down they prayed for them that they may receive [the] Spirit Holy.
Qui cum venissent, oraverunt pro ipsis ut acciperent Spiritum sanctum:
16 (Not yet *N(k)O*) for He was upon none of them having fallen, only however baptized they were being into the name of the (Lord *NK(O)*) Jesus.
Nondum enim in quemquam illorum venerat, sed baptizati tantum erant in nomine Domini Iesu.
17 Then they were laying the hands upon them and they were receiving [the] Spirit Holy.
Tunc imponebant manus super illos, et accipiebant Spiritum sanctum.
18 (having seen *N(k)O*) now of Simon that through the laying on of the hands of the apostles was given the Spirit (holy *KO*) he offered to them money
Cum vidisset autem Simon quia per impositionem manus Apostolorum daretur Spiritus sanctus, obtulit eis pecuniam,
19 saying; do give also to me also to me authority this, that on whom (when *N(k)O*) I shall lay the hands he may receive [the] Spirit Holy.
dicens: Date et mihi hanc potestatem, ut cuicumque imposuero manus, accipiat Spiritum sanctum. Petrus autem dixit ad eum:
20 Peter however said to him; The silver of you with you would [that] it be to destruction, because the gift of God you thought through money to be obtained!
Pecunia tua tecum sit in perditionem: quoniam donum Dei existimasti pecunia possideri.
21 No there is to you part nor lot in matter this; the for heart of you not is right (before *N(k)O*) God.
Non est tibi pars, neque sors in sermone isto. cor enim tuum non est rectum coram Deo.
22 do repent therefore of the wickedness of yours this and do pray earnestly to the (Lord, *N(K)O*) if indeed will be forgiven you the intent of the heart of you.
Pœnitentiam itaque age ab hac nequitia tua: et roga Deum, si forte remittatur tibi hæc cogitatio cordis tui.
23 in for [the] gall of bitterness and [the] bond of iniquity I see you being.
In felle enim amaritudinis, et obligatione iniquitatis video te esse.
24 Answering now Simon said; do pray earnestly you yourselves on behalf of me to the Lord, so that nothing may come upon me myself of which you have spoken.
Respondens autem Simon, dixit: Precamini vos pro me ad Dominum, ut nihil veniat super me horum, quæ dixistis.
25 They indeed therefore having earnestly testified and having spoken the word of the Lord (were travelling back *N(k)O*) to Jerusalem, to many then villages of the Samaritans (they were evangelising. *N(k)O*)
Et illi quidem testificati, et locuti verbum Domini, redibant Ierosolymam, et multis regionibus Samaritanorum evangelizabant.
26 An angel now of [the] Lord spoke to Philip saying; do rise up and do go toward [the] south to the road which is going down from Jerusalem to Gaza; This is [the] desert [road].
Angelus autem Domini locutus est ad Philippum, dicens: Surge, et vade contra meridianum ad viam, quæ descendit ab Ierusalem in Gazam: hæc est deserta.
27 And having risen up he went; And behold a man an Ethiopian a eunuch a potentate of Candace (the *k*) queen of Ethiopians, who was over all the treasure of her, who had come to then worship to Jerusalem,
Et surgens abiit. Et ecce vir Æthiops, eunuchus, potens Candacis Reginæ Æthiopum, qui erat super omnes gazas eius: venerat adorare in Ierusalem:
28 he was (then *NK(o)*) returning and sitting in the chariot of him and he was reading the prophet Isaiah.
et revertebatur sedens super currum suum, legensque Isaiam prophetam.
29 Said then the Spirit to Philip; do go near and do be joined to the chariot this [one].
Dixit autem Spiritus Philippo: Accede, et adiunge te ad currum istum.
30 Having run up then Philip heard when he is reading Isaiah the prophet and said; Surely not also understand you what you are reading?
Accurrens autem Philippus, audivit eum legentem Isaiam prophetam, et dixit: Putasne intelligis quæ legis?
31 And he said; How for maybe would I be able only unless someone (will guide *N(k)O*) me? He invited then Philip having come up to sit with him.
Qui ait: Et quomodo possum, si non aliquis ostenderit mihi? Rogavitque Philippum ut ascenderet, et sederet secum.
32 Now the passage of the Scripture which he was reading was this: As a sheep to slaughter He was led, and as a lamb before the [one who] (shearing *N(k)O*) him [is] silent, so not He opens the mouth of Him.
Locus autem Scripturæ, quem legebat, erat hic: Tamquam ovis ad occisionem ductus est: et sicus agnus coram tondente se, sine voce, sic non aperuit os suum.
33 In the humiliation of Him justice from Him was taken away, The (now *k*) generation of Him who will describe? For is removed from the earth the life of Him.
In humilitate iudicium eius sublatum est. Generationem eius quis enarrabit, quoniam tolletur de terra vita eius?
34 Answering now the eunuch to Philip said; I pray you, concerning whom the prophet says this? Concerning himself, or concerning other some?
Respondens autem eunuchus Philippo, dixit: Obsecro te, de quo Propheta dicit hoc? de se, an de alio aliquo?
35 Having opened then Philip the mouth of him and having begun from Scripture this he evangelised to him [about] Jesus.
Aperiens autem Philippus os suum, et incipiens a Scriptura ista, evangelizavit illi Iesum.
36 As then they were going along the road, they came upon some water and says the eunuch; Behold water; what prevents me to be baptized?
Et dum irent per viam, venerunt ad quamdam aquam: et ait Eunuchus: Ecce aqua, quid prohibet me baptizari?
37 (said now Philip: if believe you from all the heart it is lawful. answering now said: I believe the son of God to be Jesus Christ. *K*)
Dixit autem Philippus: Si credis ex toto corde, licet. Et respondens ait: Credo, Filium Dei esse Iesum Christum.
38 And he commanded to stop the chariot, And they went down both to the water, both Philip and the eunuch, and he baptized him.
Et iussit stare currum: et descenderunt uterque in aquam, Philippus et Eunuchus, et baptizavit eum.
39 When now they came up out of the water, [the] Spirit of [the] Lord carried away Philip, and not saw him no longer no longer the eunuch; he was going for the way of him rejoicing.
Cum autem ascendissent de aqua, Spiritus Domini rapuit Philippum, et amplius non vidit eum Eunuchus. Ibat autem per viam suam gaudens.
40 Philip however was found at Azotus, and passing through he was evangelising to the towns all until coming of him to Caesarea.
Philippus autem inventus est in Azoto, et pertransiens evangelizabat civitatibus cunctis, donec veniret Cæsaream.
