Smieť 7, 2023

6:1	V týchto dňoch, ako sa počet učeníkov zvyšoval, došlo k reptaniu Grékov proti Hebrejom, pretože s ich vdovami sa v každodennej službe zaobchádzalo pohŕdavo.
6:2	A tak dvanásti, zvolávajúc množstvo učeníkov, povedal: „Nie je fér, aby sme opustili Slovo Božie, aby sme tiež slúžili pri stoloch.
6:3	Preto, bratia, hľadajte medzi sebou siedmich mužov dobrého svedectva, naplnený Duchom Svätým a múdrosťou, koho môžeme poveriť touto prácou.
6:4	Napriek tomu skutočne, budeme neustále v modlitbe a v službe Slova.“
6:5	A plán potešil celý zástup. A vybrali si Štefana, človek naplnený vierou a Duchom Svätým, a Filipa a Prochora a Nikanora a Timona a Parmenasa a Mikuláša, nový príchod z Antiochie.
6:6	Tie predkladali pred očami apoštolov, a pri modlitbe, vložili na nich ruky.
6:7	A Slovo Pánovo pribúdalo, a počet učeníkov v Jeruzaleme sa veľmi rozmnožil. A dokonca aj veľká skupina kňazov bola poslušná viere.

2:4	And approaching him as if he were a living stone, rejected by men, určite, but elect and honored by God,
2:5	be also yourselves like living stones, built upon him, a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, so as to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
2:6	Kvôli tomu, Scripture asserts: „Hľa, I am setting in Zion a chief cornerstone, elect, precious. And whoever will have believed in him will not be confounded.”
2:7	Preto, to you who believe, he is honor. But to those who do not believe, the stone which the builders have rejected, the same has been made into the head of the corner,
2:8	and a stone of offense, and a rock of scandal, to those who are offended by the Word; neither do they believe, though they also have been built upon him.
2:9	But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, an acquired people, so that you may announce the virtues of him who has called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.

14:1	“Do not let your heart be troubled. You believe in God. Believe in me also.
14:2	In my Father’s house, there are many dwelling places. If there were not, I would have told you. For I go to prepare a place for you.
14:3	And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will return again, and then I will take you to myself, so that where I am, you also may be.
14:4	And you know where I am going. And you know the way.”
14:5	Thomas said to him, „Pane, we do not know where you are going, so how can we know the way?“
14:6	Ježiš mu povedal: “I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
14:7	If you had known me, certainly you would also have known my Father. And from now on, you shall know him, and you have seen him.”
14:8	Philip said to him, „Pane, reveal the Father to us, and it is enough for us.”
14:9	Ježiš mu povedal: “Have I been with you for so long, and you have not known me? Philip, whoever sees me, also sees the Father. How can you say, ‘Reveal the Father to us?'
14:10	Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I am speaking to you, I do not speak from myself. But the Father abiding in me, he does these works.
14:11	Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me?
14:12	Or else, believe because of these same works. Amen, amen, hovorím ti, whoever believes in me shall also do the works that I do. And greater things than these shall he do, for I go to the Father.
