Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole
αἰνοῦντες τὸν Θεὸν καὶ ἔχοντες χάριν πρὸς ὅλον τὸν λαόν
praising ¬the God and having favor with all the people
Luke says the whole people as a generalization to emphasize how widely the people favored the believers. As the General Notes to this chapter suggest, it may be helpful to start a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “They praised God and enjoyed wide favor with the people”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
τοὺς σῳζομένους
the_‹ones› /being/_saved
If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this with an active form. Alternate translation: “those whom he was saving”
ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτό
with the same
See the discussion of this phrase in Part 3 of the Introduction to Acts. Alternate translation: “to their Christian fellowship”
2:42-47 Luke makes a clear connection between personal faith and membership in the Christian community. Life in this new community involved devotion to the apostolic teaching of God’s Word, fellowship, sharing, joy, and praise, and it resulted in the Lord’s continuing to add to their number those who were being saved.
OET (OET-LV) praising the god and having favour with all the people.

in_every day.
OET (OET-RV) praising God and being popular with the people, and every day the master was adding more that were being saved.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
