DK latinica Serbian Bible: Daničić–Karadžić (Latin script)
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 A u ove dane, kad se umnožiše učenici, podigoše Grci viku na Jevreje što se njihove udovice zaboravljahu kad se deliše hrana svaki dan.
1 Now in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplying, a complaint arose from the Hellenists against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily service.
2 Onda dvanaestorica dozvavši mnoštvo učenika, rekoše: Nije prilično nama da ostavimo reč Božju pa da služimo oko trpeza.
2 The twelve summoned the multitude of the disciples and said, “It is not appropriate for us to forsake the word of God and serve tables.
3 Nađite dakle, braćo, među sobom sedam poštenih ljudi, punih Duha Svetog i premudrosti, koje ćemo postaviti nad ovim poslom.
3 Therefore, select from among you, brothers, seven men of good report, full of the Holy Spirit and of wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.
4 A mi ćemo u molitvi i u službi reči ostati.
4 But we will continue steadfastly in prayer and in the ministry of the word.”
5 I ova reč bi ugodna svemu narodu. I izabraše Stefana, čoveka napunjena vere i Duha Svetog, i Filipa, i Prohora, i Nikanora, i Timona, i Parmena, i Nikolu pokrštenjaka iz Antiohije.
5 These words pleased the whole multitude. They chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolaus, a proselyte of Antioch,
6 Ove postaviše pred apostole i oni pomolivši se Bogu metnuše ruke na njih.
6 whom they set before the apostles. When they had prayed, they laid their hands on them.
7 I reč Božja rastijaše, i množaše se vrlo broj učenika u Jerusalimu. I sveštenici mnogi pokoravahu se veri.
7 The word of God increased and the number of the disciples greatly multiplied in Jerusalem. A great company of the priests were obedient to the faith.
8 A Stefan pun vere i sile činjaše znake i čudesa velika među ljudima.
8 Stephen, full of faith and power, performed great wonders and signs among the people.
9 Tada ustaše neki iz zbornice koja se zove liverćanska i kirinačka i aleksandrijska i onih koji behu iz Kilikije i Azije, i prepirahu se sa Stefanom.
9 But some of those who were of the synagogue called “The Libertines”, and of the Cyrenians, of the Alexandrians, and of those of Cilicia and Asia arose, disputing with Stephen.
10 I ne mogahu protivu stati premudrosti i Duhu kojim govoraše.
10 They weren’t able to withstand the wisdom and the Spirit by which he spoke.
11 Tada podgovoriše ljude te kazaše: Čusmo ga gde huli na Mojsija i na Boga.
11 Then they secretly induced men to say, “We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses and God.”
12 I pobuniše narod i starešine i književnike, i napadoše i uhvatiše ga, i dovedoše ga na sabor.
12 They stirred up the people, the elders, and the scribes, and came against him and seized him, then brought him in to the council,
13 I izvedoše lažne svedoke koji govorahu: Ovaj čovek ne prestaje huliti na ovo sveto mesto i na zakon.
13 and set up false witnesses who said, “This man never stops speaking blasphemous words against this holy place and the law.
14 Jer ga čusmo gde govori: Ovaj Isus Nazarećanin razvaliće ovo mesto, i izmeniće običaje koje nam ostavi Mojsije.
14 For we have heard him say that this Jesus of Nazareth will destroy this place, and will change the customs which Moses delivered to us.”
15 I pogledavši na nj svi koji seđahu na saboru videše lice njegovo kao lice anđela.
15 All who sat in the council, fastening their eyes on him, saw his face like it was the face of an angel.

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).

  1. Commentary 6:8 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Acts of the Apostles (Homily XV)

    See how even among the seven one was preëminent, and won the first prize. For though the ordination was common to him and them, yet he drew upon himself greater grace.

  2. Quotes verse 6:1–4 Augustine of Hippo, Tractates on the Gospel of John (Chapters XVII–XVII)

    … the tables, previous to the time when Paul was brought to the faith of Christ, the reply given by the apostles, who before then had adhered to the Lord, was: "It is not good that we should leave the word of God, and serve tables." Then it was that they provided for the ordination of deacons, that they themselves might …
