1At si Saulo ay sumangayon sa kaniyang pagkamatay. At nang araw na yao'y nangyari ang isang malaking paguusig laban sa iglesia na nasa Jerusalem; at silang lahat ay nagsipangalat sa lahat ng mga dako ng Judea at Samaria, maliban na sa mga apostol. 2At inilibing si Esteban ng mga taong masipag sa kabanalan, at siya'y tinangisan ng di kawasa. 3Datapuwa't pinuksa ni Saulo ang iglesia, na pinapasok ang bahay-bahay, at kinakaladkad ang mga lalake't mga babae, at sila'y ipinapasok sa bilangguan. 4Ang mga nagsipangalat nga ay nagsipaglakbay, na ipinangangaral ang salita. 5At bumaba si Felipe sa bayan ng Samaria, at ipinangaral sa kanila ang Cristo. 6At ang mga karamiha'y nangagkakaisang nangakikinig sa mga bagay na sinasalita ni Felipe, pagkarinig nila, at pagkakita ng mga tanda na ginawa niya. 7Sapagka't sa maraming may mga karumaldumal na espiritu, ay nangagsilabas sila, na nangagsisisigaw ng malakas na tinig: at maraming lumpo, at pilay, ang pinagaling. 8At nagkaroon ng malaking kagalakan sa bayang yaon. 9Datapuwa't may isang tao, na nagngangalang Simon, na nang unang panaho'y nanggagaway sa bayan, at pinahahanga ang mga tao sa Samaria, at nagsasabing siya'y isang dakila: 10Na siyang pinakikinggan nilang lahat, buhat sa kaliitliitan hanggang sa kadakidakilaan, na sinasabi, Ang taong ito ang siyang kapangyarihan ng Dios na tinatawag na Dakila. 11At siya'y pinakinggan nila, sapagka't mahabang panahong pinahahanga niya sila ng kaniyang mga panggagaway. 12Datapuwa't nang magsipaniwala sila kay Felipe na nangangaral ng mabubuting balita tungkol sa kaharian ng Dios at sa pangalan ni Jesucristo, ay nangabautismuhan ang mga lalake't mga babae. 13At si Simon man ay naniwala rin: at nang mabautismuhan na, ay nanatili siyang kasama ni Felipe; at nang makakita ng mga tanda at ng mga dakilang himalang ginawa, ay napahanga siya. 14Nang mabalitaan nga ng mga apostol na nangasa Jerusalem na tinanggap ng Samaria ang salita ng Dios, ay sinugo nila sa kanila si Pedro at si Juan: 15Na nang sila'y makalusong, ay ipinanalangin nila sila, upang kanilang tanggapin ang Espiritu Santo. 16Sapagka't ito'y hindi pa bumababa sa kanino man sa kanila: kundi sila'y nangabautismuhan lamang sa pangalan ng Panginoong Jesus. 17Nang magkagayo'y ipinatong sa kanila ang kanilang mga kamay, at kanilang tinanggap ang Espiritu Santo. 18Nang makita nga ni Simon na sa pamamagitan ng pagpapatong ng mga kamay ng mga apostol ay ibinigay ang Espiritu Santo, ay inalok niya sila ng salapi, 19Na sinasabi, Bigyan naman ninyo ako ng kapangyarihang ito, upang sinomang patungan ko ng aking mga kamay, ay tumanggap ng Espiritu Santo. 20Datapuwa't sinabi sa kaniya ni Pedro, Ang iyong salapi'y mapahamak na kasama mo, sapagka't inisip mong tamuhin ang kaloob ng Dios sa pamamagitan ng salapi. 21Wala kang bahagi ni kapalaran man sa bagay na ito: sapagka't ang puso mo'y hindi matuwid sa harap ng Dios. 22Magsisi ka nga sa kasamaan mong ito, at manalangin ka sa Panginoon, baka sakaling ipatawad sa iyo ang pagiisip ng iyong puso. 23Sapagka't nakikita kong ikaw ay nasa apdo ng kapaitan at sa tali ng katampalasanan. 24At sumagot si Simon at sinabi, Ipanalangin ninyo ako sa Panginoon, upang huwag mangyari sa akin ang alin mang bagay sa mga sinasabi ninyo. 25Sila nga, nang makapagpatotoo at masabi na nila ang salita ng Panginoon, ay nangagbalik sa Jerusalem, at ipinangaral ang evangelio sa maraming nayon ng mga Samaritano. 26Datapuwa't nagsalita kay Felipe ang isang anghel ng Panginoon, na nagsasabi, Magtindig ka, at ikaw ay pumaroon sa dakong timugan, sa daang palusong mula sa Jerusalem hanggang sa Gaza: na ito'y ilang. 27At siya'y nagtindig at yumaon: at narito, ang isang lalaking taga Etiopia, isang bating na may dakilang kapamahalaan na sakop ni Candace, reina ng mga Etiope, na siyang namamahala ng lahat niyang kayamanan, at siya'y naparoon sa Jerusalem upang sumamba; 28At siya'y pabalik at nakaupo sa kaniyang karo, at binabasa ang propeta Isaias. 29At sinabi kay Felipe ng Espiritu, Lumapit ka, at makisama sa karong ito. 30At tumakbo si Felipeng patungo sa kaniya, at napakinggan niyang binabasa si Isaias na propeta, at sinabi, Nauunawa mo baga ang binabasa mo? 31At sinabi niya, Paanong magagawa ko, maliban nang may pumatnubay sa aking sinoman? At pinakiusapan niya si Felipe na pumanhik at maupong kasama niya. 32Ang dako nga ng kasulatan na binabasa niya ay ito, Siya'y gaya ng tupa na dinala sa patayan; At kung paanong hindi umimik ang kordero sa harap ng manggugupit sa kaniya, Gayon din hindi niya binubuka ang kaniyang bibig: 33Sa kaniyang pagpapakababa'y inalis ang kaniyang paghuhukom. Sino ang maghahayag ng kaniyang lahi? Sapagka't inalis sa lupa ang kaniyang buhay. 34At sumagot ang bating kay Felipe, at sinabi, Ipinamamanhik ko sa iyo, kanino sinasabi ng propeta ito? sa kaniya bagang sarili, o sa alin mang iba? 35At binuka ni Felipe ang kaniyang bibig, at pagpapasimula sa kasulatang ito, ay ipinangaral sa kaniya si Jesus. 36At sa pagpapatuloy sa daan, ay nagsidating sila sa dakong may tubig; at sinabi ng bating, Narito, ang tubig; ano ang nakahahadlang upang ako'y mabautismuhan? 37At sinabi ni Felipe Kung nanampalataya ka ng buong puso ay mangyayari. At sumagot siya at sinabi: Sumasampalataya ako na si Jesu-Cristo ay Anak ng Dios. 38At ipinagutos niyang itigil ang karo: at sila'y kapuwa lumusong sa tubig, si Felipe at ang bating; at kaniyang binautismuhan siya. 39At nang magsiahon sila sa tubig, ay inagaw si Felipe ng Espiritu ng Panginoon; at hindi na siya nakita ng bating, sapagka't ipinagpatuloy niya ang kaniyang lakad na natutuwa. 40Nguni't nasumpungan si Felipe sa Azoto: at sa pagdadaan ay ipinangaral niya ang evangelio sa lahat ng mga bayan, hanggang sa dumating siya sa Cesarea.
1Saul was consenting to his death. A great persecution arose against the assembly which was in Jerusalem in that day. They were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except for the apostles. 2Devout men buried Stephen, and lamented greatly over him. 3But Saul ravaged the assembly, entering into every house, and dragged both men and women off to prison. 4Therefore those who were scattered abroad went around preaching the word. 5Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and proclaimed to them the Christ. 6The multitudes listened with one accord to the things that were spoken by Philip, when they heard and saw the signs which he did. 7For unclean spirits came out of many of those who had them. They came out, crying with a loud voice. Many who had been paralyzed and lame were healed. 8There was great joy in that city. 9But there was a certain man, Simon by name, who used to practice sorcery in the city, and amazed the people of Samaria, making himself out to be some great one, 10to whom they all listened, from the least to the greatest, saying, “This man is that great power of God.” 11They listened to him, because for a long time he had amazed them with his sorceries. 12But when they believed Philip preaching good news concerning the Kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women. 13Simon himself also believed. Being baptized, he continued with Philip. Seeing signs and great miracles occurring, he was amazed. 14Now when the apostles who were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them, 15who, when they had come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Spirit; 16for as yet he had fallen on none of them. They had only been baptized in the name of Christ Jesus. 17Then they laid their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit. 18Now when Simon saw that the Holy Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered them money, 19saying, “Give me also this power, that whomever I lay my hands on may receive the Holy Spirit.” 20But Peter said to him, “May your silver perish with you, because you thought you could obtain the gift of God with money! 21You have neither part nor lot in this matter, for your heart isn’t right before God. 22Repent therefore of this, your wickedness, and ask God if perhaps the thought of your heart may be forgiven you. 23For I see that you are in the gall of bitterness and in the bondage of iniquity.” 24Simon answered, “Pray for me to the Lord, that none of the things which you have spoken happen to me.” 25They therefore, when they had testified and spoken the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the Good News to many villages of the Samaritans. 26But an angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying, “Arise, and go toward the south to the way that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza. This is a desert.” 27He arose and went; and behold, there was a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch of great authority under Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, who was over all her treasure, who had come to Jerusalem to worship. 28He was returning and sitting in his chariot, and was reading the prophet Isaiah. 29The Spirit said to Philip, “Go near, and join yourself to this chariot.” 30Philip ran to him, and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet, and said, “Do you understand what you are reading?” 31He said, “How can I, unless someone explains it to me?” He begged Philip to come up and sit with him. 32Now the passage of the Scripture which he was reading was this, “He was led as a sheep to the slaughter. As a lamb before his shearer is silent, so he doesn’t open his mouth. 33In his humiliation, his judgment was taken away. Who will declare His generation? For his life is taken from the earth.” 34The eunuch answered Philip, “Who is the prophet talking about? About himself, or about someone else?” 35Philip opened his mouth, and beginning from this Scripture, preached to him Jesus. 36As they went on the way, they came to some water, and the eunuch said, “Behold, here is water. What is keeping me from being baptized?” 38He commanded the chariot to stand still, and they both went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch, and he baptized him. 39When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught Philip away, and the eunuch didn’t see him any more, for he went on his way rejoicing. 40But Philip was found at Azotus. Passing through, he preached the Good News to all the cities, until he came to Caesarea.
1En Saulus had mede een welbehagen aan zijn dood. En er werd te dien dage een grote vervolging tegen de Gemeente, die te Jeruzalem was; en zij werden allen verstrooid door de landen van Judea en Samaria, behalve de apostelen. 2En enige godvruchtige mannen droegen Stefanus te zamen ten grave en maakten groten rouw over hem. 3En Saulus verwoestte de Gemeente, gaande in de huizen; en trekkende mannen en vrouwen, leverde hen over in de gevangenis. 4Zij dan nu, die verstrooid waren, gingen het land door, en verkondigden het Woord. 5En Filippus kwam af in de stad van Samaria, en predikte hun Christus. 6En de scharen hielden zich eendrachtelijk aan hetgeen van Filippus gezegd werd, dewijl zij hoorden en zagen de tekenen, die hij deed. 7Want van velen, die onreine geesten hadden, gingen dezelve uit, roepende met grote stem; en vele geraakten en kreupelen werden genezen. 8En er werd grote blijdschap in die stad. 9En een zeker man, met name Simon, was te voren in de stad plegende toverij, en verrukkende de zinnen des volks van Samaria, zeggende van zichzelven, dat hij wat groots was. 10Welken zij allen aanhingen, van den kleine tot den grote, zeggende: Deze is de grote kracht Gods. 11En zij hingen hem aan, omdat hij een langen tijd met toverijen hun zinnen verrukt had. 12Maar toen zij Filippus geloofden, die het Evangelie van het Koninkrijk Gods, en van den Naam van Jezus Christus verkondigde, werden zij gedoopt, beiden, mannen en vrouwen. 13En Simon geloofde ook zelf, en gedoopt zijnde, bleef gedurig bij Filippus; en ziende de tekenen en grote krachten, die er geschiedden, ontzette hij zich. 14Als nu de apostelen, die te Jeruzalem waren, hoorden, dat Samaria het Woord Gods aangenomen had, zonden zij tot hen Petrus en Johannes; 15Dewelken, afgekomen zijnde, baden voor hen, dat zij den Heiligen Geest ontvangen mochten. 16(Want Hij was nog op niemand van hen gevallen, maar zij waren alleenlijk gedoopt in den Naam van den Heere Jezus.) 17Toen legden zij de handen op hen, en zij ontvingen den Heiligen Geest. 18En als Simon zag, dat, door de oplegging van de handen der apostelen de Heilige Geest gegeven werd, zo bood hij hun geld aan, 19Zeggende: Geeft ook mij deze macht, opdat, zo wien ik de handen opleg, hij den Heiligen Geest ontvange. 20Maar Petrus zeide tot hem: Uw geld zij met u ten verderve, omdat gij gemeend hebt, dat de gave Gods door geld verkregen wordt! 21Gij hebt geen deel noch lot in dit woord: want uw hart is niet recht voor God. 22Bekeer u dan van deze uw boosheid, en bid God, of misschien u deze overlegging uws harten vergeven wierd. 23Want ik zie, dat gij zijt in een gans bittere gal en samenknoping der ongerechtigheid. 24Doch Simon, antwoordende, zeide: Bidt gijlieden voor mij tot den Heere, opdat niets over mij kome van hetgeen gij gezegd hebt. 25Zij dan nu, als zij het Woord des Heeren betuigd en gesproken hadden, keerden wederom naar Jeruzalem, en verkondigden het Evangelie in vele vlekken der Samaritanen. 26En een engel des Heeren sprak tot Filippus, zeggende: Sta op, en ga heen tegen het zuiden, op den weg, die van Jeruzalem afdaalt naar Gaza, welke woest is. 27En hij stond op en ging heen; en ziet, een Moorman, een kamerling, en een machtig heer van Candace, de koningin der Moren, die over al haar schat was, welke was gekomen om aan te bidden te Jeruzalem; 28En hij keerde wederom, en zat op zijn wagen, en las den profeet Jesaja. 29En de Geest zeide tot Filippus: Ga toe, en voeg u bij dezen wagen. 30En Filippus liep toe, en hoorde hem den profeet Jesaja lezen, en zeide: Verstaat gij ook, hetgeen gij leest? 31En hij zeide: Hoe zou ik toch kunnen, zo mij niet iemand onderricht? En hij bad Filippus, dat hij zou opkomen, en bij hem zitten. 32En de plaats der Schriftuur, die hij las, was deze: Hij is gelijk een schaap ter slachting geleid; en gelijk een lam stemmeloos is voor dien, die het scheert, alzo doet Hij Zijn mond niet open. 33In Zijn vernedering is Zijn oordeel weggenomen; en wie zal Zijn geslacht verhalen? Want Zijn leven wordt van de aarde weggenomen. 34En de kamerling antwoordde Filippus en zeide: Ik bid u, van Wien zegt de profeet dit, van zichzelven, of van iemand anders? 35En Filippus deed zijn mond open en beginnende van diezelfde Schrift, verkondigde hem Jezus. 36En alzo zij over weg reisden, kwamen zij aan een zeker water; en de kamerling zeide: Ziedaar water; wat verhindert mij gedoopt te worden? 37En Filippus zeide: Indien gij van ganser harte gelooft, zo is het geoorloofd. En hij, antwoordende, zeide: Ik geloof, dat Jezus Christus de Zoon van God is. 38En hij gebood den wagen stil te houden; en zij daalden beiden af in het water, zo Filippus als de kamerling, en hij doopte hem. 39En toen zij uit het water waren opgekomen, nam de Geest des Heeren Filippus weg, en de kamerling zag hem niet meer; want hij reisde zijn weg met blijdschap. 40Maar Filippus werd gevonden, te Azote; en het land doorgaande, verkondigde hij het Evangelie in alle steden, totdat hij te Cesarea kwam.
