Und er hieß den Wagen halten, und stiegen hinab in das Wasser beide, Philippus und der Kämmerer, und er taufte ihn.
Y mandó parar el carro: y descendieron ambos al agua, Felipe y el eunuco; y bautizole.
Il fit arrêter le char; Philippe et l'eunuque descendirent tous deux dans l'eau, et Philippe baptisa l'eunuque.
E comandò che il carro si fermasse; ed amendue, Filippo e l’eunuco, disceser nell’acqua; e Filippo lo battezzò.
E mandou parar o carro, e desceram ambos à água, tanto Filipe como o eunuco, e o batizou.
於是他吩咐把車停下來, 腓利 和太監二人一同下到水裏, 腓利 就給他施洗。
