< Luke 16 >

1 And another time he said to the disciples, There was a certain man of great wealth who had a servant; and it was said to him that this servant was wasting his goods.
Ri Jesús xuqujeꞌ xutzijoj jun kꞌambꞌejabꞌal noꞌj chike ri utijoxelabꞌ: Kꞌo jun qꞌinom achi, ri xkꞌojiꞌk jun rajchak chajil re ri uqꞌinomal. Ri qꞌinom achi xretaꞌmaj chi ri rajchak xaq tajin kusach ri urajil pa taq jastaq ri man kꞌo ta kutayij.
2 And he sent for him and said, What is this which is said about you? give me an account of all you have done, for you will no longer be the manager of my property.
Ri qꞌinom achi xusikꞌij ri rajchak, xubꞌij che: “¿Jas riꞌ ri xinto kabꞌix chawe? Man katkwin ta chik katchakun wukꞌ, chajacha kan ronojel ri akwenta.”
3 And the servant said to himself, What am I to do now that my lord takes away my position? I have not enough strength for working in the fields, and I would be shamed if I made requests for money from people in the streets.
Ri ajchak xuchomaj, xubꞌij: “¿Jas kinbꞌano? Maj nuchuqꞌabꞌ chukꞌotik jul, xuqujeꞌ kꞌixibꞌal riꞌ we kinta nulimoxna.
4 I have come to a decision what to do, so that when I am put out of my position they will take me into their houses.
Wetaꞌm kꞌut jas ri kinbꞌano, rajawaxik keꞌntzukuj winaq ri kinkikꞌamawaꞌj cho taq ri kachoch are kinesax bꞌik pa ri nuchak.”
5 And sending for every one who was in debt to his lord he said to the first, What is the amount of your debt to my lord?
Xuchapleꞌj kꞌu kisikꞌixik pa jujunal konojel ri winaq ri kꞌo kikꞌas. Xuta kꞌu che ri nabꞌe: “¿Janipa akꞌas rukꞌ ri wajaw?”
6 And he said, A hundred measures of oil. And he said, Take your account straight away and put down fifty.
Xubꞌij ri ajkꞌas che: “Jun ciento tonel aceite olivo nukꞌas.” Xubꞌij kꞌu ri kabꞌan rech puꞌwiꞌ ronojel ri jastaq che: “Riꞌ le uwujil ri akꞌas. Chattꞌuyuloq, chatzꞌibꞌaj kanoq chi xa nikꞌaj ciento chik akꞌas.”
7 Then he said to another, What is the amount of your debt? And he said, A hundred measures of grain. And he said to him, Take your account and put down eighty.
Xuta chi kꞌu che ri jun e ri at: “¿Janipa akꞌas rukꞌ ri wajaw?” Ri ajkꞌas xubꞌij che: “Jun ciento koxtar tiriko.” Ri kabꞌan rech puꞌwiꞌ ronojel ri jastaq xubꞌij che: “Riꞌ le awuj, chatzꞌibꞌaj kanoq xa chi wajxaqibꞌ koxtar tiriko akꞌas.”
8 And his lord was pleased with the false servant, because he had been wise; for the sons of this world are wiser in relation to their generation than the sons of light. (aiōn g165)
Xya kꞌu uqꞌij ri ajchak rumal ri rajaw rumal ri xnoꞌjin kukꞌ ri winaq. Ri e winaq ri aꞌjuwachulew are kꞌo na kinoꞌjibꞌal rumal ri kakibꞌan kukꞌ taq ri e kech winaq, kꞌo na ri kechoman chikiwach ri e winaq ri kikꞌamawaꞌm ri tunal. (aiōn g165)
9 And I say to you, Make friends for yourselves through the wealth of this life, so that when it comes to an end, you may be taken into the eternal resting-places. (aiōnios g166)
Rumal laꞌ kinbꞌij in chiꞌwe: Chikojo bꞌa ri iqꞌinomal rech uwachulew chikichꞌekik iwach taq chꞌabꞌeꞌn, rech are kakꞌis waꞌ we qꞌinomal riꞌ, kꞌo kixkꞌamawaꞌn ix pa ri jun alik kꞌaslemal. (aiōnios g166)
10 He who is true in a little, is true in much; he who is false in small things, is false in great.
Ri sukꞌ ranimaꞌ rukꞌ ri nitzꞌ jastaq, sukꞌ xuqujeꞌ na riꞌ rukꞌ ri nimaꞌq taj jastaq, xuqujeꞌ ri tzꞌaqat rukꞌ ri nitzꞌ jastaq, tzꞌaqat xuqujeꞌ na riꞌ kanoꞌjin rukꞌ ri nimalaj taq jastaq.
11 If, then, you have not been true in your use of the wealth of this life, who will give into your care the true wealth?
Rumal laꞌ kinbꞌij chiꞌwe, we man sukꞌ kixnoꞌjin chukojik ri qꞌinomal rech uwachulew, ¿jachin ta kꞌu riꞌ ri kakubꞌiꞌ ukꞌuꞌx chiꞌwe che uchajixik ri qꞌinomal rech chikajil?
12 And if you have not been true in your care of the property of other people, who will give you that which is yours?
Xuqujeꞌ we man sukꞌ ix noꞌjininaq rukꞌ ri man iwech taj ¿jachin ta kꞌu riꞌ ri kayoꞌw iwechabꞌal?
13 No man may be a servant to two masters: for he will have hate for the one and love for the other; or he will keep to the one and have no respect for the other. You may not be servants of God and of wealth.
Man kꞌo ta jun patanijel kakwinik kuꞌpatanij e kebꞌ upatrón. Karetzelaj uwach ri jun, xuqujeꞌ kuloqꞌaj uwach jun chik, o wine kupatanij riꞌ ri jun xa kꞌu karetzelaj uwach ri jun chik. Man yaꞌtal ta kꞌut kapatanix ri qꞌinomal xuqujeꞌ ri Dios.
14 And the Pharisees, who had a great love of money, hearing these things, were making sport of him.
Xkichapleꞌj uyoqꞌik ri Jesús ri fariseos, ri bꞌenaq kikꞌuꞌx rukꞌ ri pwaq are xkitatabꞌej ri xubꞌij.
15 And he said, You take care to seem right in the eyes of men, but God sees your hearts: and those things which are important in the opinion of men, are evil in the eyes of God.
Xubꞌij kꞌu ri Jesús chike: Kijaluj chi ix utz taq winaq, xa kꞌu retaꞌm ri iwanimaꞌ ri Dios. Naꞌtaj chiꞌwe karetzelaj ri Dios ri jastaq sibꞌalaj kakiya uqꞌij ri winaq.
16 The law and the prophets were till John: but then came the preaching of the kingdom of God, and everyone makes his way into it by force.
Ri taqanik xuqujeꞌ ri kiwuj ri qꞌalajisal taq utzij ri Dios xul utzijoxik kꞌa pa taq ri uqꞌij ri Juan. Che riꞌ xchapleꞌtaj loq utzijoxik ri utz laj taq tzij rech ri ajawarem rech ri Dios xuqujeꞌ che ri qꞌij xkichapleꞌj ri winaq ukojik kichuqꞌabꞌ koꞌk chilaꞌ.
17 But heaven and earth will come to an end before the smallest letter of the law may be dropped out.
Are man kꞌax taj usachik uwach ri kaj xuqujeꞌ ri uwachulew cho ri kasach jun juchꞌ rech ri taqanik.
18 Everyone who puts away his wife and takes another, is a false husband: and he who is married to a woman whose husband has put her away, is no true husband to her.
Xapachin ri kujach ri rixoqil, kakꞌuliꞌ chi kꞌu rukꞌ jun ixoq chik, kamakunik rumal kekꞌojiꞌ kebꞌ rixoqil. Xuqujeꞌ ri kakꞌuliꞌ rukꞌ ri ixoq ri jachtal kanoq rumal ri rachajil, kamakun xuqujeꞌ rumal kekꞌojiꞌ e kebꞌ rachajil.
19 Now there was a certain man of great wealth, who was dressed in fair clothing of purple and delicate linen, and was shining and glad every day.
Kꞌo jun qꞌinomalaj achi, kukoj jeꞌlalaj taq atzꞌyaq xuqujeꞌ ronojel qꞌij kubꞌan nimaqꞌij.
20 And a certain poor man, named Lazarus, was stretched out at his door, full of wounds,
Chuchiꞌ kꞌu ri rachoch, katꞌuyiꞌ jun achi ubꞌiꞌ Lázaro, nojinaq ri utyoꞌjal che chꞌaꞌk xuqujeꞌ kuta ulimoxna.
21 Desiring the broken bits of food which came from the table of the man of wealth; and even the dogs came and put their tongues on his wounds.
Ri mebꞌaꞌ kurayij utijik ri uxeꞌr taq jastaq ri katzaq chuxeꞌ ri umexa ri qꞌinom achi, xuqujeꞌ ri tzꞌiꞌ keqebꞌ churiqꞌik ri chꞌaꞌk ri kꞌo che.
22 And in time the poor man came to his end, and angels took him to Abraham's breast. And the man of wealth came to his end, and was put in the earth.
Jas ta waꞌ, xkꞌam bꞌi ri mebꞌaꞌ achi kumal e angelibꞌ rech keꞌkꞌol chuxukut ri Abraham. Ri qꞌinom achi xkam xuqujeꞌ xeꞌmuq kanoq.
23 And in hell, being in great pain, lifting up his eyes he saw Abraham, far away, and Lazarus on his breast. (Hadēs g86)
Are kꞌo chi ri qꞌinom achi pa ri kikꞌolibꞌal ri kaminaqibꞌ jawjeꞌ ri kꞌo wi nimalaj kꞌaxkꞌolal, are kꞌo pa ri kꞌaxkꞌolal, xkaꞌy chikaj, xeꞌril apanoq ri Abraham rachiꞌl ri Lázaro naj e kꞌo wi apanoq che. (Hadēs g86)
24 And he gave a cry and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus, so that he may put the end of his finger in water and put it on my tongue, for I am cruelly burning in this flame.
Xaq jeriꞌ xuchꞌabꞌej apanoq, xuraq uchiꞌ xubꞌij: “Tataxel Abraham, chel kuꞌx la chwe, taqa la loq ri Lázaro chumuꞌloq ri uwiꞌ uqꞌabꞌ pa joron, rech kuluya puꞌwiꞌ ri waqꞌ rumal cher tajin kinriq kꞌax pa we qꞌaqꞌ riꞌ.”
25 But Abraham said, Keep in mind, my son, that when you were living, you had your good things, while Lazarus had evil things: but now, he is comforted and you are in pain.
Ri Abraham kꞌut xubꞌij che: “Achi, naꞌtaj chawe chi are at kꞌaslik sibꞌalaj jeꞌl xabꞌan chi rikꞌowisaxik ronojel ri akꞌaslemal, are kꞌu we Lázaro sibꞌalaj kꞌax xuriqo. Chanim kꞌut areꞌ kukꞌamawaꞌj na ri kubꞌsabꞌal ukꞌuꞌx areꞌ, are kꞌu ri at chanaꞌ na ri kꞌaxkꞌolal.
26 And in addition, there is a deep division fixed between us and you, so that those who might go from here to you are not able to do so, and no one may come from you to us.
Xuqujeꞌ jun nimalaj siwan kꞌo chiqaxoꞌl, rumal riꞌ ri kekaj keqꞌax je laꞌ iwukꞌ man kekwin taj, xuqujeꞌ man kekwin taj keqꞌax loq jewaꞌ qukꞌ uj.”
27 And he said, Father, it is my request that you will send him to my father's house;
Ri qꞌinom xutzalij uwach ri xbꞌix che, xubꞌij: Tat, kinbꞌochiꞌj kuꞌx la, taqa la bꞌik ri Lázaro cho rachoch ri nutat,
28 For I have five brothers; and let him give them an account of these things, so that they may not come to this place of pain.
rech kuꞌbꞌij chike ri e jobꞌ wachalal, rech man kepe ta pa we kꞌaxalaj kꞌolibꞌal riꞌ.
29 But Abraham said, They have Moses and the prophets; let them give ear to what they say.
Xubꞌij kꞌu ri Abraham che: “Kꞌo kukꞌ aꞌreꞌ ri utzꞌibꞌam kan ri Moisés, xuqujeꞌ ri kitzꞌibꞌam kan ri e qꞌalajisal taq rech ri utzij ri Dios, are cheꞌkitatabꞌej ri aꞌreꞌ.”
30 And he said, No, father Abraham, but if someone went to them from the dead, their hearts would be changed.
Xubꞌij kꞌu ri qꞌinom: “Tat Abraham, man keꞌkitatabꞌej ta riꞌ, are kakitatabꞌej riꞌ xuqujeꞌ kakikꞌex kanimaꞌ we are kopan jun kaminaq chubꞌixik chike.”
31 And he said to him, If they will not give attention to Moses and the prophets, they will not be moved even if someone comes back from the dead.
Xubꞌij ri Abraham che: “We man kakinimaj ri Moisés, we man keꞌkinimaj ri e qꞌalajisal taq rech ri utzij ri Dios, man kekojon ta wi riꞌ pune jun kaminaq kawaꞌjil bꞌik chubꞌixik chike.”
