The Acts of the Apostles 6: 8-15
| 6:8 | Then Stephen, filled with grace and fortitude, wrought great signs and miracles among the people. |
| 6:9 | But certain ones, from the synagogue of the so-called Libertines, and of the Cyrenians, and of the Alexandrians, and of those who were from Cilicia and Asia rose up and were disputing with Stephen. |
| 6:10 | But they were not able to resist the wisdom and the Spirit with which he was speaking. |
| 6:11 | Then they suborned men who were to claim that they had heard him speaking words of blasphemy against Moses and against God. |
| 6:12 | And thus did they stir up the people and the elders and the scribes. And hurrying together, they seized him and brought him to the council. |
| 6:13 | And they set up false witnesses, који је рекао: “This man does not cease to speak words against the holy place and the law. |
| 6:14 | For we have heard him saying that this Jesus the Nazarene will destroy this place and will change the traditions, which Moses handed down to us.” |
| 6:15 | And all those who were sitting in the council, загледан у њега, saw his face, as if it had become the face of an Angel. |

The Holy Gospel According to John 6: 22-29
| 6:22 | Следећег дана, the crowd which was standing across the sea saw that there were no other small boats in that place, except one, and that Jesus had not entered into the boat with his disciples, but that his disciples had departed alone. |
| 6:23 | Ипак заиста, other boats came over from Tiberias, next to the place where they had eaten the bread after the Lord gave thanks. |
| 6:24 | Стога, when the crowd had seen that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they climbed into the small boats, and they went to Capernaum, seeking Jesus. |
| 6:25 | And when they had found him across the sea, рекоше му, „Раби, when did you come here?” |
| 6:26 | Jesus answered them and said: „Амин, амин, рекао сам ти, you seek me, not because you have seen signs, but because you have eaten from the bread and were satisfied. |
| 6:27 | Do not work for food that perishes, but for that which endures to eternal life, which the Son of man will give to you. For God the Father has sealed him.” |
| 6:28 | Стога, рекоше му, “What should we do, so that we may labor in the works of God?” |
| 6:29 | Исус је одговорио и рекао им, “This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he sent.” |
