Acts 1
1 In my first book, O Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach,
Loqꞌalaj wach chꞌabꞌeꞌn Teófilo: Pa ri nabꞌe nuwuj ri xintzꞌibꞌaj chawe, xintzijon chirij ronojel ri xubꞌan ri Jesús xuqujeꞌ ri xukꞌutu.
2 until the day He was taken up to heaven, after giving instructions through the Holy Spirit to the apostles He had chosen.
Kꞌa pa ri qꞌij are xkꞌam bꞌik chikaj are xyaꞌtaj kan ri utaqanik chike ri utijoxelabꞌ rukꞌ ri utobꞌanik ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel.
3 After His suffering, He presented Himself to them with many convincing proofs that He was alive. He appeared to them over a span of forty days and spoke about the kingdom of God.
Are xkꞌastaj uwach, xukꞌut ribꞌ chikiwach ri uꞌtaqoꞌn, xubꞌan mayijabꞌal taq jastaq rech xukꞌut chikiwach chi qas xkꞌastaj uwach. Kawinaq qꞌij xukꞌut ribꞌ chkiwach xutzijoj ri rajawarem ri Dios chike.
4 And while they were gathered together, He commanded them: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift the Father promised, which you have heard Me discuss.
Are kꞌo kukꞌ xubꞌij chike: Man kixel ta na bꞌik pa Jerusalén, xane chiwayeꞌj na ri ubꞌim loq kan ri nuTat, ri nutzijom chiꞌwe.
5 For John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.”
Rumal cher ri Juan xubꞌan qasanaꞌ rukꞌ jaꞌ, are kꞌu ri ix man kanajtin ta na kabꞌan iqasanaꞌ rukꞌ ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel.
6 So when they came together, they asked Him, “Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?”
Are kimulim kibꞌ ri e taqoꞌn, xkita che ri Jesús: Ajawxel, ¿la che kꞌu we qꞌotaj riꞌ kakoj la ri taqanel pa ri tinimit Israel?
7 Jesus replied, “It is not for you to know times or seasons that the Father has fixed by His own authority.
Xubꞌij ri Jesús chike: Man yaꞌtal ta chiꞌwe ix kiwetaꞌmaj ri qꞌotaj xuqujeꞌ ri qꞌij are kubꞌan na ri karaj ri Dios.
8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, and you will be My witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
Are kape ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel piꞌwiꞌ, kikꞌamawaꞌj na kwinem xuqujeꞌ kixux na qꞌalajisal taq we pa Jerusalén, pa ronojel ri tinimit Judea, pa ri tinimit Samaria xuqujeꞌ pa ri naj taq tinimit rech ronojel ri uwachulew.
9 After He had said this, they watched as He was taken up, and a cloud hid Him from their sight.
Are xbꞌiꞌtaj we jastaq riꞌ rumal ri Jesús, ko xkaꞌyex kumal ri tijoxelabꞌ, kꞌa te riꞌ qas chikiwach xwaꞌjilisax bꞌik, xkꞌam bꞌik chikaj, xchꞌuq bꞌik pa jun sutzꞌ, man xekwin ta chik xkil uwach.
10 They were looking intently into the sky as He was going, when suddenly two men dressed in white stood beside them.
Ri tijoxelabꞌ tajin kekaꞌy apanoq cho ri kaj are paqal ri Jesús, xaq kꞌa teꞌ xeqet kebꞌ achyabꞌ kukꞌ, kikojom saq taq katzꞌyaq, xkibꞌij chike:
11 “Men of Galilee,” they said, “why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen Him go into heaven.”
Achyabꞌ aꞌj Galilea, ¿jas che tajin kixkaꞌy chikaj? Ri Jesús ri xkꞌam bꞌik chiꞌwach pa ri kaj, kape chi na junmul jetaq ri xubꞌano are xeꞌek.
12 Then they returned to Jerusalem from the Mount of Olives, which is near the city, a Sabbath day’s journey away.
Are xeqaj loq ri e taqoꞌn cho ri juyubꞌ ri kabꞌix Olivos che ri kꞌo apanoq chi jun kilómetro che ri tinimit Jerusalén.
13 When they arrived, they went to the upper room where they were staying: Peter and John, James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas son of James.
Xoꞌpan kꞌu pa ri tinimit, xepaqiꞌ pa ri ja ri e kꞌo wi. Are waꞌ ri kibꞌiꞌ ri achyabꞌ ri e kꞌo chilaꞌ: ri Pedro, ri Jacobo, ri Juan, ri Andrés, ri Felipe, ri Tomás, ri Bartolomé, ri Mateo, ri Jacobo ukꞌojol ri Alfeo, ri Simón ri kachiꞌl ri Zelotes rachiꞌl ri Judas rachalal ri Jacobo.
14 With one accord they all continued in prayer, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers.
Konojel ri e taqoꞌn xkimulij kibꞌ, kachiꞌl ri María ri unan ri Jesús, ri e rachalal xuqujeꞌ nikꞌaj ixoqibꞌ chik, junam amaqꞌel xkibꞌan chꞌawem cho ri Dios.
15 In those days Peter stood up among the brothers (a gathering of about a hundred and twenty) and said,
Pa taq ri qꞌij riꞌ are kimulim kibꞌ ri kojonelabꞌ karaj e jun ciento rukꞌ juwinaq kikꞌyal. Ri Pedro xtakꞌiꞌ chikixoꞌl xubꞌij chike:
16 “Brothers, the Scripture had to be fulfilled which the Holy Spirit foretold through the mouth of David concerning Judas, who became a guide for those who arrested Jesus.
Qachalal, rajawaxik kakꞌulmataj ri kubꞌij ri Tzꞌibꞌatalik are waꞌ ri xubꞌij loq ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel chuchiꞌ ri qamam David ojer chi kakꞌulmataj na rukꞌ ri Judas.
17 He was one of our number and shared in this ministry.”
Ri Judas qachiꞌl kan nabꞌe xuqujeꞌ xchakun qukꞌ pa ri qawokaj.
18 (Now with the reward for his wickedness Judas bought a field; there he fell headlong and burst open in the middle, and all his intestines spilled out.
Xuloqꞌ kꞌu jun ulew chech ri pwaq ri tojbꞌal rech ri etzelal ri xubꞌano, chilaꞌ xtzaq wi xuliꞌ uwiꞌ, xraqin ri upam, xel loq ronojel ri rixkoꞌl.
19 This became known to all who lived in Jerusalem, so they called that field in their own language Akeldama, that is, Field of Blood.)
Xel kꞌu loq utzijoxik ri xkꞌulmatajik konojel ri winaq pa ri tinimit Jerusalén xketaꞌmaj we jastaq riꞌ. Rumal riꞌ ri ulew ri xkam wi ri Judas xubꞌinaꞌj Acéldama, ri kel kubꞌij Kikꞌ ulew pa ri tzijobꞌal arameo.
20 “For it is written in the book of Psalms: ‘May his place be deserted; let there be no one to dwell in it,’ and, ‘May another take his position.’
Jeriꞌ rumal cher pa ri wuj rech Salmos tzꞌibꞌatal wi loq: Tolon kan upam ri rachoch, mat ko chi jun kakꞌojiꞌ chupam. Xuqujeꞌ kubꞌij: Yoꞌq ri reqeleꞌn che jun winaq chik.
21 Therefore it is necessary to choose one of the men who have accompanied us the whole time the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
Rumal kꞌu ri rajawaxik kaqachaꞌ jun chikixoꞌl ri xekꞌojiꞌ qukꞌ are xkꞌojiꞌ ri Ajawxel Jesús qukꞌ.
22 beginning from John’s baptism until the day Jesus was taken up from us. For one of these must become a witness with us of His resurrection.”
Rajawaxik chi we winaq riꞌ kꞌolinaq loq qukꞌ are xqachapleꞌj loq, che taq ri qꞌij are xubꞌan qasanaꞌ ri Juan kꞌa pa ri qꞌij are xkꞌam bꞌik ri Jesús pa ri kaj, xuqujeꞌ rajawaxik chi xril qukꞌ junam ri ukꞌastajibꞌal ri Jesús.
23 So they proposed two men: Joseph called Barsabbas (also known as Justus) and Matthias.
Xeꞌkichaꞌ kꞌu e kebꞌ achyabꞌ: Ri José ri kabꞌix Barsabás che, xuqujeꞌ Justo rachiꞌl ri Matías.
24 And they prayed, “Lord, You know everyone’s heart. Show us which of these two You have chosen
Kꞌa te riꞌ xkibꞌan chꞌawem xkibꞌij: Ajawxel, etaꞌm la ri kanimaꞌ konojel ri winaq, kꞌutu bꞌa la chiqawach jachin chike we kebꞌ achyabꞌ riꞌ chaꞌom la,
25 to take up this ministry and apostleship, which Judas abandoned to go to his rightful place.”
rech kok che taqoꞌn ech la, kukꞌam ri eqeleꞌn ri xuya kan ri Judas rumal cher xqaj pa mak, xeꞌ kꞌu chilaꞌ jawjeꞌ ri taqal wi che.
26 Then they cast lots, and the lot fell to Matthias; so he was added to the eleven apostles.
Xkikꞌyaq kꞌu kij chi rilik jachin chirij kaqaj wi. Xqaj kꞌu chirij ri Matías. Ri Matías xok kukꞌ ri julajuj taqoꞌn.
