< 2 Corinthians 1 >

1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Timothy the brother, to the congregation of God that is at Corinth, with all the sanctified who are in the whole of Achaia.
Ri Pablo taqoꞌn rech ri Cristo Jesús xa rumal ri urayibꞌal kuꞌx ri Dios, rachiꞌl ri alaxik Timoteo, kakitaq rutzil kiwach konojel ri e kojonelabꞌ ri e kꞌo pa ri tinimit Corinto pa Acaya:
2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Are ri Dios xuqujeꞌ ri Tataxel rech ri Ajawxel Jesucristo kiya jaꞌmaril xuqujeꞌ toqꞌobꞌ piꞌwanimaꞌ.
3 Blessed is the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all encouragement,
Qꞌijilaꞌtal ri Dios Tataxel rech ri Ajawxel Jesucristo, bꞌanal toqꞌobꞌ xuqujeꞌ yaꞌl kuꞌlibꞌal kꞌuꞌx.
4 who encourages us in all our affliction, in order for us to be able to encourage those in every affliction, through the encouragement of which we ourselves are encouraged by God.
Areꞌ kakubꞌisan qakꞌuꞌx pa ronojel taq ri kꞌaxkꞌolal ri kaqariqo, rech jeriꞌ kujkwinik kaqakubꞌisaj kikꞌuꞌx konojel ri kakiriq kꞌax.
5 Because, as the sufferings of the Christ abound to us, so also our encouragement abounds through the Christ.
Rumal cher jacha ri unimal ri kꞌaxkꞌolal kaqariqo jeriꞌ xuqujeꞌ na unimal ri kuꞌlibꞌal kuꞌx kaqariqo.
6 But whether we are oppressed, it is for your encouragement and salvation, which works by endurance from the same sufferings that we also experience (and our hope for you is steadfast), or we are encouraged, it is for your encouragement and salvation,
We uj kaqarik kꞌax, kaqariqo, rech ix kiriq kuꞌlibꞌal kuꞌx xuqujeꞌ koltajem. We kakubꞌisax qakꞌuꞌx uj, jewaꞌ kabꞌanik rech kakubꞌiꞌ xuqujeꞌ ikꞌuꞌx ix rech kiqꞌiꞌo rukꞌ ayeꞌnik ri kꞌaxkꞌolal ri kaqarik uj.
7 knowing that, as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so also of the encouragement.
Kuꞌl qakꞌuꞌx chiꞌwij rumal qetaꞌm chi jacha ri ix ix qachiꞌl pa ri kꞌaxkꞌolal, ix qachiꞌl xuqujeꞌ chuyaꞌik kuꞌlibꞌal kuꞌx.
8 For we do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, about our affliction that happened to us in Asia, because we were extraordinarily weighed down, above strength, so as for us to despair even to be alive.
Qachalal, man kaqaj taj chi mat kiwetaꞌmaj ri kꞌaxkꞌolal ri xqarik pa Asia. Sibꞌalaj xkꞌistaj qakꞌuꞌx, pa qakꞌuꞌx chi man uj kꞌas ta chik kujel la chilaꞌ.
9 But we ourselves have had the sentence of death in ourselves, so that we should not be trusting in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead.
Xqanaꞌo chi jer xqꞌat tzij pa qawiꞌ rech kujkamisaxik. Jeriꞌ xkꞌulmatajik rech makakubꞌiꞌ taj qakꞌuꞌx chibꞌil qibꞌ uj xane kakubꞌiꞌ qakꞌuꞌx chirij ri Dios ri kuꞌkꞌastajisaj kaminaqibꞌ.
10 Who rescued us out of so great a death, and does rescue, in whom we have hoped that he will also still rescue.
Ri Dios xujutoꞌo jeriꞌ man xujkam taj. Chirij areꞌ jeqel wi qakꞌuꞌx, are kujtoꞌwik.
11 And of you who help together by supplication for us (a gift for us from many persons, because of many), so that there may be gratitude about you.
Ri ix kꞌut chujitoꞌ rukꞌ ri ichꞌawem pa qawiꞌ. Rech jeriꞌ sibꞌalaj e kꞌi ketyoxin che ri Dios rumal ri sipanik ri xyaꞌtaj chaqe rumal xtzalitaj uwach ri qachꞌawem.
12 For our pride is this (the testimony from our conscience), that we behave in the world in the simplicity and purity of God, not by fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God, and especially toward you.
Are ri qaqꞌalajisanik kayoꞌw kiꞌkotemal chaqe: utz xujnoꞌjin pa ri uwachulew xuqujeꞌ iwukꞌ ix, qas rukꞌ rutzil qanimaꞌ xuqujeꞌ man rukꞌ ta etzelal, man are ta xqakoj ketaꞌmabꞌal achyabꞌ xane are xqakoj ri utoqꞌobꞌ ri Dios.
13 For we write no other thing to you, but rather what ye read or also acknowledge. And I hope ye will also acknowledge until the end,
Jeriꞌ rumal cher man tajin ta kaqatzꞌibꞌaj jun jastaq ri mat kisikꞌij uwach xuqujeꞌ ri mat kichꞌobꞌo. Kurayij ri wanimaꞌ chikichomaj ronojel.
14 as also ye did acknowledge us in part, because we are your boast, just as ye also are ours in the day of the Lord Jesus.
Iwetaꞌm chik chi utz kinaꞌ nimal rumal qe, xuqujeꞌ uj kaqanaꞌ na nimal rumal iwe pa ri uqꞌijal ri Ajawxel Jesús.
15 And in this confidence I intended to come to you earlier, so that ye might have a second benefit,
Rumal riꞌ xwaj xixinsolij ix nabꞌe rech kikꞌamawaꞌj jun ukabꞌ tewechibꞌal.
16 and to pass through you into Macedonia, and to come again from Macedonia to you, and by you to be helped on the way toward Judea.
Iwumal iwe kinikꞌow bꞌik pa ri tinimit Macedonia, are kineꞌ pa Corinto xuqujeꞌ kinikꞌow chi loq junmul iwukꞌ are kintzalij loq. Rech jeriꞌ kinitoꞌo kintzalij pa ri tinimit Judea.
17 Therefore intending this, did I accordingly employ anything in lightness? Or what I decide, do I decide according to flesh, so that it would be with me the yes, yes and the no, no?
Are xinbꞌij we riꞌ chibꞌil wibꞌ ¿Teꞌq piꞌkꞌuꞌx chi xaq aninaq xinchomalaꞌ xinbꞌij jeꞌ kinbꞌan we riꞌ, kꞌa te riꞌ kinbꞌij chik man kinbꞌan taj?
18 But God is faithful, because our word toward you became not, yes and no.
Ri Dios kꞌut retaꞌm chi man nabꞌe taj kaqabꞌij chiꞌwe chi jeꞌ, je laꞌ, kꞌa te riꞌ kaqabꞌij man je taj. Ri uj kujtakꞌiꞌ pa qatzij.
19 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ who was proclaimed among you by us (by me and Silvanus and Timothy) became not, yes and no, but in him has become, yes.
Rumal cher ri Ukꞌojol ri Dios ri Jesucristo, ri kaqatzijoj in, ri Silvano, xuqujeꞌ ri Timoteo, man kukꞌexmayila taj ribꞌ xane qas takꞌal wi ri kubꞌij.
20 For as many as be promises of God, in him is the Yes, and in him the Truly, for glory to God through us.
Rumal cher ronojel ri ubꞌim loq ri Dios tzi je wi riꞌ xuqujeꞌ jeriꞌ pa Cristo, rumal riꞌ kaqabꞌij uj jeriꞌ, rech kaqaqꞌijilaꞌj ri ubꞌiꞌ ri Dios.
21 Now he who establishes us with you in Christ, and who anointed us, is God.
Are ri Dios kajeqebꞌan qakꞌuꞌx xuqujeꞌ ikꞌuꞌx ix pa Cristo, rumal cher are xujchoꞌwik.
22 He also is who put a seal on us, and who gave the pledge of the Spirit in our hearts.
Xukoj qetal pa qanimaꞌ rukꞌ ri Uxlabꞌixel, kꞌutbꞌal rech chi qas tzij kubꞌan na ri ubꞌim loq chaqe.
23 But I call God for a witness upon my soul, that I did not yet come to Corinth, sparing you.
Qas cho ri Dios kinbꞌij chi man inbꞌenaq ta pa ri tinimit Corinto rech man kixeꞌn yaja taj.
24 Not because we lord over your faith, but are co-workmen of your joy, for by faith ye stand.
Man xa ta kaqaj kabꞌan qe pa iwiꞌ, xane are kaqaj kujchakun iwukꞌ rumal kaqaj kixqatoꞌo rech kakꞌiy ri ikiꞌkotemal, rumal cher are ri ikojobꞌal kabꞌanow chiꞌwe chi ko kixkꞌojiꞌk.
