< Revelation 1 >
1 This is the revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants what must soon come to pass. He made it known by sending His angel to His servant John,
Are waꞌ ri xuqꞌalajisaj ri Jesucristo, ri xya che rumal ri Dios rech kukꞌut chikiwach ri uꞌtaqoꞌn. Ri Jesucristo xutaq loq jun ángel xulubꞌij we jastaq riꞌ che ri utaqoꞌn Juan.
2 who testifies to everything he saw. This is the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Ri Juan kuqꞌalajisaj ri utzij ri Dios, ri utzij ri Jesucristo xuqujeꞌ xuqꞌalajisaj chi qas tzij xril we jastaq riꞌ.
3 Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear and obey what is written in it, because the time is near.
Utz rech ri kusikꞌij we tzij riꞌ xuqujeꞌ utz ke ri kakitatabꞌej we tzij riꞌ, xuqujeꞌ kakiyak pa kanimaꞌ ri jastaq ri tzꞌibꞌatal pa we wuj riꞌ, rumal cher man naj ta chik karaj kakꞌulmataj we jastaq riꞌ.
4 John, To the seven churches in the province of Asia: Grace and peace to you from Him who is and was and is to come, and from the seven Spirits before His throne,
In in Juan, kintzꞌibꞌaj we wuj riꞌ chike ri e wuqubꞌ komontyox ri e kꞌo pa Asia: Chikꞌamawaꞌj toqꞌobꞌ xuqujeꞌ jaꞌmaril che ri Dios ri areꞌ kꞌo kanoq, areꞌ kꞌo kamik xuqujeꞌ areꞌ kape na; xuqujeꞌ che ri e wuqubꞌ uxlabꞌal ri e kꞌo cho ri utꞌuyulibꞌal ri Dios;
5 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To Him who loves us and has released us from our sins by His blood,
xuqujeꞌ che ri Jesucristo, ri qas kaqꞌalajisan ronojel ri jastaq, ri xkꞌastaj uwach nabꞌe chikiwach konojel ri kaminaqibꞌ, ri kabꞌan rech pa kiwiꞌ konojel ri e taqanelabꞌ cho ri uwachulew, ri xujuloqꞌaj xuqujeꞌ xuchꞌaj ri qamak rukꞌ ri ukikꞌel.
6 who has made us to be a kingdom, priests to His God and Father—to Him be the glory and power forever and ever! Amen. (aiōn )
Xuqujeꞌ xubꞌan chaqe chi uj taqanelabꞌ xuqujeꞌ uj chꞌawenelabꞌ cho ri Dios rech kaqapatanij ri Dios, ri Tataxel. ¡Che areꞌ yaꞌtal wi kaya ri juluwem xuqujeꞌ ri kwinem chibꞌe qꞌij saq! Jeriꞌ. (aiōn )
7 Behold, He is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see Him—even those who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. So shall it be! Amen.
¡Chiwilampeꞌ, ri Cristo kape na pa ri sutzꞌ! Konojel ri winaq kakil na rukꞌ ri kibꞌoqꞌoch, xuqujeꞌ konojel ri winaq ri e kꞌo cho ri uwachulew ri xekamisan bꞌik koꞌqꞌ na rumal rech. Jeꞌ jeriꞌ.
8 “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, who is and was and is to come—the Almighty.
“Ri in ri Ajawxel ri kinkwin chubꞌanik ronojel ri jastaq, in kꞌaslik xuqujeꞌ in kꞌas wi loq xuqujeꞌ xa jubꞌiqꞌ kawaj kinopanik, kinbꞌij: In in majibꞌal rech xuqujeꞌ in kꞌisbꞌal rech ronojel.”
9 I, John, your brother and partner in the tribulation and kingdom and perseverance that are in Jesus, was on the island of Patmos because of the word of God and my testimony about Jesus.
In in Juan, in iwachalal, xuqujeꞌ in iwachiꞌl pa ri kꞌax ri kaqariqo pa ri ajawarem rech ri Dios xuqujeꞌ pa ri jeqelem ri yaꞌtal chaqe rukꞌ ri Jesús. In in kꞌo pa ri jubꞌiqꞌ chaqiꞌj ulew ri ubꞌiꞌnam Patmos, xa rumal utzijoxik ri utzij ri Dios xuqujeꞌ rumal uqꞌalajisaxik ri Jesús.
10 On the Lord’s day I was in the Spirit, and I heard behind me a loud voice like a trumpet,
Pa ri uqꞌijal ri Ajawxel, in in kꞌo pa ri Uxlabꞌixel, xaq kꞌa te xinta jun ko alaj chꞌabꞌal chwij jetaq ri uchꞌabꞌal jun suꞌ.
11 saying, “Write on a scroll what you see and send it to the seven churches: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea.”
Ri chꞌabꞌal xubꞌij: Chatzꞌibꞌaj pa jun wuj ronojel ri kawilo, kꞌa te riꞌ chataqa chike ri e wuqubꞌ komontyox ri e kꞌo pa Asia: ri komontyox rech Éfeso, Esmirna, Pérgamo, Tiatira, Sardis, Filadelfia xuqujeꞌ ri komontyox pa Laodicea.
12 Then I turned to see the voice that was speaking with me. And having turned, I saw seven golden lampstands,
Are xintzalqꞌomij chwij chukaꞌyexik ri kinchꞌabꞌenik, xinwil wuqubꞌ kꞌolibꞌal kantela bꞌantal che qꞌana pwaq.
13 and among the lampstands was One like the Son of Man, dressed in a long robe, with a golden sash around His chest.
Puꞌnikꞌajil ri kꞌolibꞌal kantela xinwil jun achi kajunumataj rukꞌ ri uKꞌojol ri Achi, ukojom jun nimalaj ratzꞌyaq kopan kꞌa chuqul taq raqan xuqujeꞌ ximtal cho ukꞌuꞌx jun atzꞌyaq ri bꞌantal che qꞌana pwaq,
14 The hair of His head was white like wool, as white as snow, and His eyes were like a blazing fire.
ri uwiꞌ sibꞌalaj saq, jetaq ri lana, kajunumataj rukꞌ ri saqlaj tew, ri ubꞌoqꞌoch kajunumataj rukꞌ ri qꞌaqꞌ are kajinowik.
15 His feet were like polished bronze refined in a furnace, and His voice was like the roar of many waters.
Ri raqan kerepqꞌunik jacha ri qꞌanqꞌoj chꞌichꞌ are kaya pa ri qꞌaqꞌ. Ri uchꞌabꞌal kajunumataj rukꞌ ri nimaꞌ ri katix loq puꞌwiꞌ taq ri juyubꞌ.
16 He held in His right hand seven stars, and a sharp double-edged sword came from His mouth. His face was like the sun shining at its brightest.
Pa ri uwiqiqꞌabꞌ kꞌo wuqubꞌ chꞌumil xuqujeꞌ pa ri uchiꞌ kel loq jun sakꞌibꞌal ri kebꞌ uwiꞌ, ri upalaj kajunumataj rukꞌ ri qꞌij are qas kaporonik.
17 When I saw Him, I fell at His feet like a dead man. But He placed His right hand on me and said, “Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last,
Are xinwil we riꞌ, xintzaq choch je ta ne chi xinkamik. Areꞌ kꞌut xuya ri uwiqiqꞌabꞌ pa nuwiꞌ, kꞌa te riꞌ xubꞌij chwe: Man kaxiꞌj ta awibꞌ, in riꞌ ri in nabꞌe xuqujeꞌ in kꞌisbꞌal.
18 the Living One. I was dead, and behold, now I am alive forever and ever! And I hold the keys of Death and of Hades. (aiōn , Hadēs )
Ri in kꞌaslik, pune xinkam na, kamik riꞌ in kꞌaslik chibꞌe qꞌij saq. Kꞌo wukꞌ ri lawe rech ri kamikal xuqujeꞌ rech ri kꞌolibꞌal jawjeꞌ keꞌ wi ri kanimaꞌ ri e kaminaqibꞌ. (aiōn , Hadēs )
19 Therefore write down the things you have seen, and the things that are, and the things that will happen after this.
Chatzꞌibꞌaj bꞌa ronojel ri jastaq ri xawilo, ri jastaq ri tajin kakꞌulmataj kamik xuqujeꞌ ri kakꞌulmataj na.
20 This is the mystery of the seven stars you saw in My right hand and of the seven golden lampstands: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands are the seven churches.
Chanim kinbꞌij chawe jas kel kubꞌij ri wuqubꞌ chꞌumil ri xawilo kꞌo pa nuqꞌabꞌ xuqujeꞌ ri wuqubꞌ kꞌolibꞌal kantela ri bꞌantal che qꞌana pwaq. Ri wuqubꞌ chꞌumil are karetwachij ri angelibꞌ e kꞌamal taq bꞌe ri e kꞌo pa ri komontyox are kꞌu ri wuqubꞌ kꞌolibꞌal kantela kuretwachiij ri wuqubꞌ komontyox.
