PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 A čuše i apostoli i braća koji behu u Judeji da i neznabošci primiše reč Božju.
1 Now the apostles and the brothers who were in Judea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God.
1 Ἤκουσαν δὲ οἱ ἀπόστολοι καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ οἱ ὄντες κατὰ τὴν Ἰουδαίαν ὅτι καὶ τὰ ἔθνη ἐδέξαντο τὸν λόγον τοῦ Θεοῦ.
2 I kad iziđe Petar u Jerusalim, prepirahu se s njim koji behu iz obrezanja,
2 When Peter had come up to Jerusalem, those who were of the circumcision contended with him,
2 καὶ ὅτε ἀνέβη Πέτρος εἰς Ἱεροσόλυμα, διεκρίνοντο πρὸς αὐτὸν οἱ ἐκ περιτομῆς
3 govoreći: Ušao si k ljudima koji nisu obrezani, i jeo si s njima.
3 saying, “You went in to uncircumcised men and ate with them!”
3 λέγοντες ὅτι πρὸς ἄνδρας ἀκροβυστίαν ἔχοντας εἰσῆλθες καὶ συνέφαγες αὐτοῖς.
4 A Petar počevši kazivaše im redom govoreći:
4 But Peter began, and explained to them in order, saying,
4 ἀρξάμενος δὲ ὁ Πέτρος ἐξετίθετο αὐτοῖς καθεξῆς λέγων·
5 Ja bejah u gradu Jopi na molitvi, i došavši izvan sebe videh utvaru, gde silazi sud nekakav kao veliko platno na četiri roglja i spušta se s neba, i dođe do preda me.
5 “I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision: a certain container descending, like it was a great sheet let down from heaven by four corners. It came as far as me.
5 ἐγὼ ἤμην ἐν πόλει Ἰόππῃ προσευχόμενος, καὶ εἶδον ἐν ἐκστάσει ὅραμα, καταβαῖνον σκεῦός τι ὡς ὀθόνην μεγάλην τέσσαρσιν ἀρχαῖς καθιεμένην ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, καὶ ἦλθεν ἄχρις ἐμοῦ·
6 Pogledavši u nj opazih i videh četvoronožna zemaljska, i zverinje i bubine i ptice nebeske.
6 When I had looked intently at it, I considered, and saw the four-footed animals of the earth, wild animals, creeping things, and birds of the sky.
6 εἰς ἣν ἀτενίσας κατενόουν, καὶ εἶδον τὰ τετράποδα τῆς γῆς καὶ τὰ θηρία καὶ τὰ ἑρπετὰ καὶ τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ.
7 A čuh glas koji mi govori: Ustani, Petre! Pokolji i pojedi.
7 I also heard a voice saying to me, ‘Rise, Peter, kill and eat!’
7 ἤκουσα δὲ φωνῆς λεγούσης μοι· ἀναστάς, Πέτρε, θῦσον καὶ φάγε.
8 A ja rekoh: Nipošto Gospode! Jer ništa pogano i nečisto nikad ne uđe u usta moja.
8 But I said, ‘Not so, Lord, for nothing unholy or unclean has ever entered into my mouth.’
8 εἶπον δέ· μηδαμῶς, Κύριε· ὅτι πᾶν κοινὸν ἢ ἀκάθαρτον οὐδέποτε εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὸ στόμα μου.
9 A glas mi odgovori drugom s neba govoreći: Šta je Bog očistio ti ne pogani.
9 But a voice answered me the second time out of heaven, ‘What God has cleansed, don’t you call unclean.’
9 ἀπεκρίθη δέ μοι φωνὴ ἐκ δευτέρου ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ· ἃ ὁ Θεὸς ἐκαθάρισε σὺ μὴ κοίνου.
10 A ovo bi triput; i uze se opet sve na nebo.
10 This was done three times, and all were drawn up again into heaven.
10 τοῦτο δὲ ἐγένετο ἐπὶ τρίς, καὶ πάλιν ἀνεσπάσθη ἅπαντα εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν.
11 I gle, odmah tri čoveka staše pred kućom u kojoj bejah, poslani iz Ćesarije k meni.
11 Behold, immediately three men stood before the house where I was, having been sent from Caesarea to me.
11 καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐξαυτῆς τρεῖς ἄνδρες ἐπέστησαν ἐπὶ τὴν οἰκίαν ἐν ᾗ ἤμην, ἀπεσταλμένοι ἀπὸ Καισαρείας πρός με.
12 A Duh mi reče da idem s njima ne premišljajući ništa. A dođoše sa mnom i ovo šest braće, i uđosmo u kuću čovekovu.
12 The Spirit told me to go with them without discriminating. These six brothers also accompanied me, and we entered into the man’s house.
12 εἶπε δέ μοι τὸ Πνεῦμα συνελθεῖν αὐτοῖς μηδὲν διακρινόμενον. ἦλθον δὲ σὺν ἐμοὶ καὶ οἱ ἓξ ἀδελφοὶ οὗτοι, καὶ εἰσήλθομεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ ἀνδρός.
13 I kaza nam kako vide anđela u kući svojoj koji je stao i kazao mu: Pošlji ljude u Jopu i dozovi Simona prozvanog Petra,
13 He told us how he had seen the angel standing in his house and saying to him, ‘Send to Joppa and get Simon, who is called Peter,
13 ἀπήγγειλέ τε ἡμῖν πῶς εἶδε τὸν ἄγγελον ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ σταθέντα καὶ εἰπόντα αὐτῷ· ἀπόστειλον εἰς Ἰόππην ἄνδρας καὶ μετάπεμψαι Σίμωνα τὸν ἐπικαλούμενον Πέτρον,
14 koji će ti kazati reči kojima ćeš se spasti ti i sav dom tvoj.
14 who will speak to you words by which you will be saved, you and all your house.’
14 ὃς λαλήσει ῥήματα πρός σε, ἐν οἷς σωθήσῃ σὺ καὶ πᾶς ὁ οἶκός σου.
15 A kad ja počeh govoriti siđe Duh Sveti na njih, kao i na nas u početku.
15 As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them, even as on us at the beginning.
15 ἐν δὲ τῷ ἄρξασθαί με λαλεῖν ἐπέπεσε τὸ Πνεῦμα τὸ Ἅγιον ἐπ᾽ αὐτοὺς ὥσπερ καὶ ἐφ᾽ ἡμᾶς ἐν ἀρχῇ.
16 Onda se opomenuh reči Gospodnje kako govoraše: Jovan je krstio vodom, a vi ćete se krstiti Duhom Svetim.
16 I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, ‘John indeed baptized in water, but you will be baptized in the Holy Spirit.’
16 ἐμνήσθην δὲ τοῦ ῥήματος Κυρίου ὡς ἔλεγεν· Ἰωάννης μὲν ἐβάπτισεν ὕδατι, ὑμεῖς δὲ βαπτισθήσεσθε ἐν Πνεύματι Ἁγίῳ.
17 Kad im dakle Bog dade jednak dar kao i nama koji verujemo Gospoda svog Isusa Hrista; ja ko bejah da bi mogao zabraniti Bogu?
17 If then God gave to them the same gift as us when we believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I, that I could withstand God?”
17 εἰ οὖν τὴν ἴσην δωρεὰν ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς ὁ Θεὸς ὡς καὶ ἡμῖν πιστεύσασιν ἐπὶ τὸν Κύριον Ἰησοῦν Χριστόν, ἐγὼ δὲ τίς ἤμην δυνατὸς κωλῦσαι τὸν Θεόν;
18 A kad čuše ovo, umukoše, i hvaljahu Boga govoreći: Dakle i neznabošcima Bog dade pokajanje za život.
18 When they heard these things, they held their peace and glorified God, saying, “Then God has also granted to the Gentiles repentance to life!”
18 ἀκούσαντες δὲ ταῦτα ἡσύχασαν καὶ ἐδόξαζον τὸν Θεὸν λέγοντες· ἄρα γε καὶ τοῖς ἔθνεσιν ὁ Θεὸς τὴν μετάνοιαν ἔδωκεν εἰς ζωήν.
19 A oni što se rasejaše od nevolje koja posta za Stefana, prođoše tja do Finikije i Kipra i Antiohije, nikom ne govoreći reč do samim Jevrejima.
19 They therefore who were scattered abroad by the oppression that arose about Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch, speaking the word to no one except to Jews only.
19 Οἱ μὲν οὖν διασπαρέντες ἀπὸ τῆς θλίψεως τῆς γενομένης ἐπὶ Στεφάνῳ διῆλθον ἕως Φοινίκης καὶ Κύπρου καὶ Ἀντιοχείας, μηδενὶ λαλοῦντες τὸν λόγον εἰ μὴ μόνον Ἰουδαίοις.
20 A neki od njih behu Kiprani i Kirinci, koji ušavši u Antiohiju govorahu Grcima propovedajući jevanđelje o Gospodu Isusu.
20 But there were some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who, when they had come to Antioch, spoke to the Hellenists, preaching the Lord Jesus.
20 Ἦσαν δέ τινες ἐξ αὐτῶν ἄνδρες Κύπριοι καὶ Κυρηναῖοι, οἵτινες εἰσελθόντες εἰς Ἀντιόχειαν ἐλάλουν πρὸς τοὺς Ἑλληνιστάς, εὐαγγελιζόμενοι τὸν Κύριον Ἰησοῦν.
21 I beše ruka Božija s njima; i mnogo ih verovaše i obratiše se ka Gospodu.
21 The hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number believed and turned to the Lord.
21 καὶ ἦν χεὶρ Κυρίου μετ᾽ αὐτῶν, πολύς τε ἀριθμὸς πιστεύσας ἐπέστρεψεν ἐπὶ τὸν Κύριον.
22 A dođe reč o njima do ušiju crkve koja beše u Jerusalimu; i poslaše Varnavu da ide tja do Antiohije;
22 The report concerning them came to the ears of the assembly which was in Jerusalem. They sent out Barnabas to go as far as Antioch,
22 Ἠκούσθη δὲ ὁ λόγος εἰς τὰ ὦτα τῆς ἐκκλησίας τῆς ἐν Ἱεροσολύμοις περὶ αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐξαπέστειλαν Βαρνάβαν διελθεῖν ἕως Ἀντιοχείας·
23 koji došavši i videvši blagodat Božju, obradova se, i moljaše sve da tvrdim srcem ostanu u Gospodu;
23 who, when he had come, and had seen the grace of God, was glad. He exhorted them all, that with purpose of heart they should remain near to the Lord.
23 ὃς παραγενόμενος καὶ ἰδὼν τὴν χάριν τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐχάρη, καὶ παρεκάλει πάντας τῇ προθέσει τῆς καρδίας προσμένειν τῷ Κυρίῳ,
24 jer beše čovek blag i pun Duha Svetog i vere. I obrati se mnogi narod ka Gospodu.
24 For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Spirit and of faith, and many people were added to the Lord.
24 ὅτι ἦν ἀνὴρ ἀγαθὸς καὶ πλήρης Πνεύματος Ἁγίου καὶ πίστεως· καὶ προσετέθη ὄχλος ἱκανὸς τῷ Κυρίῳ.
25 Varnava, pak, iziđe u Tars da traži Savla; i kad ga nađe, dovede ga u Antiohiju.
25 Barnabas went out to Tarsus to look for Saul.
25 ἐξῆλθε δὲ εἰς Ταρσὸν ὁ Βαρνάβας ἀναζητῆσαι Σαῦλον, καὶ εὑρὼν αὐτὸν ἤγαγεν [αὐτὸν] εἰς Ἀντιόχειαν.
26 I oni se celu godinu sastajaše onde s crkvom, i učiše mnogi narod; i najpre u Antiohiji nazvaše učenike hrišćanima.
26 When he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. For a whole year they were gathered together with the assembly, and taught many people. The disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.
26 ἐγένετο δὲ αὐτοὺς ἐνιαυτὸν ὅλον συναχθῆναι [ἐν] τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ καὶ διδάξαι ὄχλον ἱκανόν, χρηματίσαι τε πρῶτον ἐν Ἀντιοχείᾳ τοὺς μαθητὰς Χριστιανούς.
27 A u te dane siđoše iz Jerusalima proroci u Antiohiju.
27 Now in these days, prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch.
27 Ἐν ταύταις δὲ ταῖς ἡμέραις κατῆλθον ἀπὸ Ἱεροσολύμων προφῆται εἰς Ἀντιόχειαν·
28 I ustavši jedan od njih, po imenu Agav, objavi glad veliku koja htede biti po vasionom svetu; koji i bi za Klaudija ćesara.
28 One of them named Agabus stood up and indicated by the Spirit that there should be a great famine all over the world, which also happened in the days of Claudius.
28 ἀναστὰς δὲ εἷς ἐξ αὐτῶν ὀνόματι Ἄγαβος ἐσήμανε διὰ τοῦ Πνεύματος λιμὸν μέγαν μέλλειν ἔσεσθαι ἐφ᾽ ὅλην τὴν οἰκουμένην· ὅστις καὶ ἐγένετο ἐπὶ Κλαυδίου Καίσαρος.
29 A od učenika odredi svaki koliko koji mogaše da pošalju u pomoć braći koja življahu u Judeji.
29 As any of the disciples had plenty, each determined to send relief to the brothers who lived in Judea;
29 τῶν δὲ μαθητῶν καθὼς ηὐπορεῖτό τις, ὥρισαν ἕκαστος αὐτῶν εἰς διακονίαν πέμψαι τοῖς κατοικοῦσιν ἐν τῇ Ἰουδαίᾳ ἀδελφοῖς·
30 Koje i učiniše poslavši starešinama preko ruke Varnavine i Savlove.
30 which they also did, sending it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.
30 ὃ καὶ ἐποίησαν ἀποστείλαντες πρὸς τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους διὰ χειρὸς Βαρνάβα καὶ Σαύλου.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
The persecution turned out to be no slight benefit as "to them that love God all things work together for good." (Rom. viii. 28.) If they had made it their express study how best to establish the Church, they would have done no other thing than this--they dispersed the teachers. Mark in what quarters the preaching was extended.

Then the disciples, every one according to his ability, determined to send relief to the elders for the brethren which dwelt in Judæa, which also they did by the hands of Barnabas and Saul."

And ye, when there is a question of precedence, claim to take place of the whole word, forasmuch as our city first crowned itself with the name of Christian; but in the competition of chastity, ye are not ashamed to be behind the rudest cities.

For it was in Antioch that the disciples were first called Christians after the Lord's ascension, as we read in the Acts of the Apostles: and certain houses were afterwards called by the new names of hospices and monasteries; but the things themselves existed prior to their names, and are confirmed by religious truth, which also forms their defense against …

For although the disciples of Christ were not yet called by such a name,--because it was after His ascension, in Antioch, first that the disciples began to be called Christians, --yet the thing itself, that afterwards assumed such a name, already existed, those who were afterwards called Christians were already disciples; and this common name, like the common faith, they …
