< Acts 28 >
1 And when we were safe, we made the discovery that the island was named Melita.
Are xujopan chuchiꞌ ri jaꞌ pa ri utz ulew xqetaꞌmaj chi uj kꞌo pa ri chꞌaqaꞌp ulew ubꞌiꞌ Malta, qonojel utz qawach.
2 And the simple people living there were uncommonly kind to us, for they made a fire for us, and took us in, because it was raining and cold.
Ri winaq ri e kꞌo chilaꞌ sibꞌalaj utz qachꞌabꞌexik xkibꞌano. Xkitzij jun qꞌaqꞌ, kꞌa te riꞌ xujkisikꞌij qonojel rech kaqamiqꞌ qibꞌ rumal cher sibꞌalaj tew.
3 But when Paul had got some sticks together and put them on the fire, a snake came out, because of the heat, and gave him a bite on the hand.
Ri Pablo xukꞌam apanoq kebꞌ oxibꞌ chaqiꞌj siꞌ, tajin kꞌu kuya pa ri qꞌaqꞌ, xaq kꞌa teꞌ xel loq jun kumatz chuxoꞌl ri siꞌ, xanimaj loq cho ri qꞌaqꞌ, xutiꞌ ri Pablo che ri uqꞌabꞌ.
4 And when the people saw it hanging on his hand, they said to one another, Without doubt this man has put someone to death, and though he has got safely away from the sea, God will not let him go on living.
Ri winaq ri e kꞌo pa cho ri chꞌaqaꞌp ulew are xkil ri kumatz tzayal che ri uqꞌabꞌ ri Pablo, xkibꞌij chibꞌil taq kibꞌ: Waꞌ we achi riꞌ jun kamisanel, pune man xkam ta kan pa ri plo, kamik kꞌut kutoj na ri etzelal ubꞌanom, kakam laꞌ.
5 But shaking off the beast into the fire, he got no damage.
Ri Pablo kꞌut xutota ri uqꞌabꞌ, xqaj ri kumatz pa ri qꞌaqꞌ, man kꞌo ta kꞌu jas xubꞌano.
6 But they had the idea that they would see him becoming ill, or suddenly falling down dead; but after waiting a long time, and seeing that no damage came to him, changing their opinion, they said he was a god.
Konojel ri winaq kayeꞌm chi kasipoj ri uqꞌabꞌ ri Pablo, o xaq kꞌa teꞌ katzaqik, kakamik. Naj riꞌ xkayeꞌj na jas kubꞌano. Are xkilo chi man kꞌo ta jas jun kꞌax xuriqo, xkikꞌex kichomanik, xkibꞌij chi ri Pablo are jun dios.
7 Now near that place there was some land, the property of the chief man of the island, who was named Publius; who very kindly took us into his house as his guests for three days.
Chunaqaj ri kꞌolibꞌal riꞌ xujopan wi, kꞌo ri rulew ri achi ubꞌiꞌ Plubio kinimal ri winaq ri e kꞌo chilaꞌ pa ri tinimit. Areꞌ sibꞌalaj utz xubꞌan che qakꞌulaxik pa ri rachoch, oxibꞌ qꞌij kꞌut xujrilij rukꞌ utzilal.
8 And the father of Publius was ill, with a disease of the stomach; to whom Paul went, and put his hands on him, with prayer, and made him well.
Yawabꞌ kꞌu ri utat ri Publio, kꞌo pa chꞌat. Kꞌo qꞌaqꞌ chrij, xuqujeꞌ sibꞌalaj kikꞌ kupamaj. Xeꞌ kꞌu ri Pablo chi rilik, xubꞌan chꞌawem xuya ri uqꞌabꞌ puꞌwiꞌ, xkunataj kꞌu ri achi.
9 And when this took place, all the others in the island who had diseases came and were made well.
Rumal waꞌ we xbꞌantajik, xepe konojel ri yawabꞌibꞌ ri e kꞌo chilaꞌ pa ri tinimit riꞌ, xekunataj kꞌut.
10 Then they gave us great honour, and, when we went away, they put into the ship whatever things we were in need of.
Konojel ri winaq sibꞌalaj nim xujkil wi, kꞌi ri xkisipaj chaqe. Are xujel bꞌik chilaꞌ xujeꞌ chi pa jun jukubꞌ chik, ri winaq xkiya bꞌik ronojel ri rajawaxik chaqe pa ri qabꞌinem.
11 And after three months we went to sea in a ship of Alexandria sailing under the sign of the Dioscuri, which had been at the island for the winter.
Oxibꞌ ikꞌ xujkꞌoji na chilaꞌ pa Malta, kꞌa te riꞌ xujok pa jun jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal aj Alejandría ri karikꞌowisaj ri qꞌalaj chilaꞌ. We jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal riꞌ kojtal ri upalaj ri dios Cástor choch, rachiꞌl ri dios Pólux che retal.
12 And going into the harbour at Syracuse, we were waiting there for three days.
Xujopan kꞌu pa ri tinimit Siracusa ri kꞌo chiꞌ ri plo. Chilaꞌ xujkanaj wi kan oxibꞌ qꞌij.
13 And from there, going about in a curve, we came to Rhegium: and after one day a south wind came up and on the day after we came to Puteoli:
Xujel bꞌik chilaꞌ, xqataqej kꞌu ri qabꞌe pa ri plo chunaqaj ri taqꞌaj kꞌa xujopan na pa ri tinimit Regio. Che ri jun qꞌij chik xpe jun kyaqiqꞌ chaqij pa ri umox ri relibꞌal qꞌij, chukabꞌ qꞌij kꞌut xujopan pa ri tinimit Puteoli.
14 Where we came across some of the brothers, who kept us with them for seven days; and so we came to Rome.
Chilaꞌ kꞌut pa Puteoli xeꞌqariq wi jujun qachalal kojonelabꞌ. Xkibꞌij kꞌu chaqe kujkanaj wuqubꞌ qꞌij kukꞌ. Jeꞌ xqabꞌano, kꞌa te riꞌ xujeꞌ pa ri tinimit Roma.
15 And the brothers, when they had news of us, came out from town as far as Appii Forum and the Three Taverns to have a meeting with us: and Paul, seeing them, gave praise to God and took heart.
Ri qachalal pa Roma kitom chik chi kujopanik, xujul kikꞌulaj pa bꞌe, xqariq kꞌu qibꞌ pa ri alaj tinimit ubꞌiꞌ Apio, xuqujeꞌ jun kꞌolibꞌal ri kabꞌix oxibꞌ ja kꞌayibꞌal. Xtyoxin ri Pablo che ri Dios are xeꞌril ri alaxik.
16 And when we came into Rome, they let Paul have a house for himself and the armed man who kept watch over him.
Are xujopan pa ri tinimit Roma, ri Julio ri achi ri kataqan pa kiwiꞌ ri ajchꞌoꞌjabꞌ chajil tinimit, xuꞌjach ri e kꞌo pa cheꞌ. Ri Pablo kꞌut xya bꞌe che kakꞌojiꞌ utukel pa jun ja. Xchajix kꞌu rumal jun ajchꞌoꞌj chajil tinimit.
17 Then after three days he sent for the chief men of the Jews: and when they had come together, he said to them, My brothers, though I had done nothing against the people or the ways of our fathers, I was given, a prisoner from Jerusalem, into the hands of the Romans.
Oxibꞌ qꞌij chik kꞌo ri Pablo pa Roma are xtaqan che kisikꞌixik ri kinimaꞌqil ri winaq aꞌj Israel ri e kꞌo pa Roma. Are xkimulij kibꞌ, ri Pablo xubꞌij chike: Qachalal, ri in man kꞌo ta jas jun kꞌax xinbꞌan chike ri qawinaqil aꞌj Israel, man kꞌo ta kꞌu nubꞌim chrij ri e naqꞌatal wi ri qamam ojer. Pune jeriꞌ xinokisax kꞌu pa cheꞌ pa ri tinimit Jerusalén, kꞌa te riꞌ xinjach loq pa kiqꞌabꞌ ri winaq aꞌj Roma.
18 Who, when they had put questions to me, were ready to let me go free, because there was no cause of death in me.
Are xkikꞌot nuchiꞌ, xkaj xinkitzoqopij rumal cher man kꞌo ta numak xkiriqo ri yaꞌtal wi kinkamisaxik.
19 But when the Jews made protest against it, I had to put my cause into Caesar's hands; not because I have anything to say against my nation.
Are kꞌu ri winaq aꞌj Israel man xkaj taj xintzoqopixik. Rumal riꞌ rajawaxik wi xinbꞌij chi are ri César, ri nimalaj taqanel puꞌwiꞌ Roma, kaqꞌatow na tzij pa nuwiꞌ. Rumal waꞌ in kꞌo waral, man are taj kinbꞌij chi kꞌo kimak ri nuwinaqil.
20 But for this reason I sent for you, to see and have talk with you: for because of the hope of Israel I am in these chains.
Rumal kꞌu riꞌ xintaqan chisikꞌixik, rech kinwil iwach, xuqujeꞌ kintzijon iwukꞌ. Rumal kꞌu rech ri kuꞌlibꞌal qakꞌuꞌx qonojel ri uj aꞌj Israel, ri in in ximtal rukꞌ we ximbꞌal chꞌichꞌ riꞌ, xcha ri Pablo.
21 And they said to him, We have not had letters from Judaea about you, and no one of the brothers has come to us here to give an account or say any evil about you.
Aꞌreꞌ xkibꞌij che ri Pablo: Man kꞌo ta jun wuj ri petinaq pa Judea qakꞌamom ri kꞌo jas kubꞌij chawij, xuqujeꞌ man kꞌo ta jun chike ri qachalal ri e petinaq je laꞌ, ri ulinaq waral, ri umolom amak chaqe.
22 But we have a desire to give hearing to your opinion: for as to this form of religion, we have knowledge that in all places it is attacked.
Kaqaj kꞌut kaqato jas ri kachomaj, qetaꞌm chi pa ronojel tinimit kꞌax kechꞌaw ri winaq chrij we kꞌakꞌ kꞌutuꞌn riꞌ, xechaꞌ.
23 And when a day had been fixed, they came to his house in great numbers; and he gave them teaching, giving witness to the kingdom of God, and having discussions with them about Jesus, from the law of Moses and from the prophets, from morning till evening.
Xkichaꞌ kꞌu jun qꞌij rech koꞌpan rukꞌ ri Pablo. E kꞌi kꞌut xoꞌpan rukꞌ pa ri ja jawjeꞌ ri kꞌo wi. Ri Pablo kꞌut xutzijoj chike ri utaqanik ri Dios pa kiwiꞌ ri winaq. Aqꞌabꞌil xumajij tzijonem kukꞌ kꞌa chaqꞌabꞌ xtoꞌtajik. Xukoj uchuqꞌabꞌ chubꞌixik chike ri winaq chi kekojon che ri Jesús. Xusikꞌij chkiwach ri kubꞌij chrij ri Jesús pa taq ri wuj rech ri Moisés, xuqujeꞌ ri kubꞌij chupam ri kiwuj ri qꞌalajisal taq rech ri utzij ri Dios ojer.
24 And some were in agreement with what he said, but some had doubts.
Jujun xkikꞌamawaꞌj jas ri xubꞌij ri Pablo, xkikojo, jujun chik man xkikoj taj.
25 And they went away, for there was a division among them after Paul had said this one thing: Well did the Holy Spirit say by the prophet Isaiah to your fathers,
Man xjunamataj ta kꞌu ri kichomanik konojel, xa jeriꞌ noꞌjim xkichapleꞌj elem bꞌik. Are kꞌu ri Pablo xubꞌij chike: Qas tzij ri xubꞌij ri Uxlabꞌixel chike ri qamam ojer chuchiꞌ ri qaqꞌalajisal utzij ri Dios Isaías:
26 Go to this people and say, Though you give ear, you will not get knowledge; and seeing, you will see, but the sense will not be clear to you:
Jat, jaꞌbꞌij chike we winaq riꞌ: Pune kitatabꞌej, man kichꞌobꞌ ta kꞌu ri kito. Pune kixkaꞌyik, man kixkwin ta kꞌu chuchꞌobꞌik ri kiwilo.
27 For the heart of this people has become fat and their ears are slow in hearing and their eyes are shut; for fear that they might see with their eyes and give hearing with their ears and become wise in their hearts and be turned again to me, so that I might make them well.
Rumal chi ri kanimaꞌ we winaq riꞌ kowirinaq chik. Kitzꞌapim ri kixikin xuqujeꞌ kichꞌuqum ri kibꞌoqꞌoch rech man kekaꞌy taj, xuqujeꞌ rech man kakita taj, rech man kakichꞌobꞌ taj rech man ketzalij ta wukꞌ rech makekunataj taj.
28 Be certain, then, that the salvation of God is sent to the Gentiles, and they will give hearing.
Chiwetaꞌmaj bꞌa chi ri utz laj tzij rech ri Evangelio ri kutoꞌ ri winaq, katzijox na chike ri nikꞌaj winaq chik ri man aꞌj Israel taj. Aꞌreꞌ kꞌut kakitatabꞌej na.
Are xbꞌiꞌtaj waꞌ we tzij riꞌ rumal ri Pablo, konojel ri winaq aꞌj Israel xeꞌl bꞌik, sibꞌalaj xkichomaj rij ri xubꞌij ri Pablo chike.
30 And for the space of two years, Paul was living in the house of which he had the use, and had talk with all those who went in to see him,
Kebꞌ junabꞌ kꞌut xkꞌojiꞌ na ri Pablo pa Roma pa jun qajom ja. Utz xubꞌan che kikꞌulaxik konojel ri xoꞌpan chuchꞌabꞌexik.
31 Preaching the kingdom of God and teaching about the Lord Jesus Christ without fear, and no orders were given that he was not to do so.
Are xkꞌojiꞌ chilaꞌ man xuxiꞌj ta ribꞌ chutzijoxik ri utaqanik ri Dios pa kiwiꞌ ri winaq, xuqujeꞌ maj jun xqꞌatenik xuya kꞌutuꞌn chrij ri Ajawxel Jesucristo.
