< 2 Corinthians 6 >
1 As God’s fellow workers, then, we urge you not to receive God’s grace in vain.
Ri uj ri kujtobꞌan rukꞌ ri Dios, kaqata chiꞌwe chi man kiwil ta ri utoqꞌobꞌ ri Dios jacha jun jastaq ri maj kutayij.
2 For He says: “In the time of favor I heard you, and in the day of salvation I helped you.” Behold, now is the time of favor; now is the day of salvation!
Rumal cher ri Tzꞌibꞌatalik kubꞌij: Xatintatabꞌej pa ri qꞌij ri xtaqiꞌ chawe, xuqujeꞌ xatintoꞌo pa ri qꞌij ri xajawataj chawe. Are waꞌ ri uqꞌijal ri Dios; are waꞌ ri qꞌij rech kolotajem.
3 We put no obstacle in anyone’s way, so that no one can discredit our ministry.
Ri uj kꞌut man uj topibꞌal aqanaj taj chike nikꞌaj chik, rech man kayoqꞌ ta ri qachak.
4 Rather, as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: in great endurance; in troubles, hardships, and calamities;
Xane kaqabꞌan ri qachak rukꞌ utzilal rumal cher uj patanil rech ri Dios pa taq ri kꞌaxal, pa ri qarajawaxik, xuqujeꞌ pa ri kꞌaxkꞌolal.
5 in beatings, imprisonments, and riots; in labor, sleepless nights, and hunger;
Uj tzꞌapital pa cheꞌ, uj raputalik, bꞌantal kꞌax chaqe chikixoꞌl e kꞌi winaq, sibꞌalaj elinaq qawaram, kꞌi mul man ujwaꞌqinaq taj.
6 in purity, knowledge, patience, and kindness; in the Holy Spirit and in sincere love;
Kujpatanijik rukꞌ chꞌajchꞌojil, rukꞌ etaꞌmabꞌal, rukꞌ utzilal, pa ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel xuqujeꞌ pa ri qas tzij loqꞌanik.
7 in truthful speech and in the power of God; with the weapons of righteousness in the right hand and in the left;
Rukꞌ tzij rech ri qas tzij xuqujeꞌ rukꞌ ri ukwinem ri Dios, rukꞌ chꞌoꞌjibꞌal rech sukꞌal, toꞌbꞌal qibꞌ xuqujeꞌ rech chꞌoꞌj.
8 through glory and dishonor, slander and praise; viewed as imposters, yet genuine;
Kꞌo mul kaya qaqꞌij, kꞌo mul kesax qakꞌixibꞌal, kabꞌan kꞌax chaqe utz o man utz ta kabꞌan chiqatzijoxik; kabꞌix chaqe chi uj subꞌunelabꞌ, xa kꞌu qas tzij ri kaqabꞌij.
9 as unknown, yet well-known; dying, and yet we live on; punished, yet not killed;
Pune etaꞌmatal qawach, kakibꞌan kꞌu ri winaq chi man ketaꞌm ta qawach. Jubꞌiqꞌ karaj kujkamik, uj kꞌas kꞌu na, ujchꞌaytalik, man uj kaminaq ta kꞌut.
10 sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything.
Kujkiꞌkotik pune kujbꞌisonik kabꞌantajik; uj mebꞌaꞌ kabꞌantajik, qabꞌanom kꞌu qꞌinomabꞌ chike sibꞌalaj e kꞌi. Maj kꞌo qukꞌ kabꞌantajik, kꞌo kꞌu ronojel uwach qukꞌ.
11 We have spoken freely to you, Corinthians. Our hearts are open wide.
Qachalal aꞌj Corinto, qas xujtzijon iwukꞌ rukꞌ ronojel qanimaꞌ, je ta ne ri qas xqajaq ri qanimaꞌ chiꞌwach.
12 It is not our affection, but yours, that is restrained.
Man xqakꞌekꞌej ta ri qaloqꞌanik chiꞌwe, pune ix ikꞌekꞌem ri iloqꞌanik chaqe uj.
13 As a fair exchange, I ask you as my children: Open wide your hearts also.
Rech kꞌu je kujnoꞌjinik qonojel, (kixinchꞌabꞌej jer ta ne ix kꞌo walkꞌwaꞌl) chixloqꞌanoq jetaq ri kujloqꞌan uj.
14 Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership can righteousness have with wickedness? Or what fellowship does light have with darkness?
Mibꞌan iwachiꞌl chike ri man e kojonelabꞌ taj. ¿La karachiꞌlaj kꞌu ribꞌ ri sukꞌal rukꞌ ri etzelal? O ¿la kꞌo kꞌu uriqoj ibꞌ riꞌ ri tunal ri katunanik rukꞌ ri qꞌequꞌmal?
15 What harmony is there between Christ and Belial? Or what does a believer have in common with an unbeliever?
¿La kꞌo kꞌu uriqoj ibꞌ ri Cristo rukꞌ ri Itzel? ¿La kꞌo jun jas ke junam ri kojonel rukꞌ ri man kojonel taj?
16 What agreement can exist between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said: “I will dwell with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be My people.”
¿La kꞌo jun jastaq kꞌo pa ri rachoch ri Dios xuqujeꞌ kꞌo pa ri kachoch ri e tyox ri e bꞌantalik? Uj riꞌ ri uj rachoch ri kꞌaslik Dios. Jacha ri ubꞌim Areꞌ: Kinkꞌojiꞌ na xuqujeꞌ kinbꞌin na kukꞌ. In kinux na kiDios, aꞌreꞌ kuꞌx na e nutinimit.
17 “Therefore come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you.”
Kꞌa te riꞌ xubꞌij chi ri Ajawxel: Chixel loq chikixoꞌl, chiqꞌata iwibꞌ chike. Man kichap taj jun chꞌuluj laj jastaq, rech kixinkꞌamawaꞌj na.
18 And: “I will be a Father to you, and you will be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.”
In kinux na iTat, ri ix kixux na nukꞌojol, numiꞌal, kacha ri Ajawxel ri kakwin chubꞌanik ronojel jastaq.
