2 Corinthians 6
1 But, as a help to you, we exhort you not to receive the grace of God 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 a favorable time, I heeded you; and on the day of salvation, I helped you.” Behold, now is the favorable time; behold, 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 May we never give offense to anyone, so that our ministry may not be disparaged.
Ri uj kꞌut man uj topibꞌal aqanaj taj chike nikꞌaj chik, rech man kayoqꞌ ta ri qachak.
4 But in all things, let us exhibit ourselves as ministers of God with great patience: through tribulation, difficulties, and distress;
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 despite wounds, imprisonment, and rebellion; with hard work, vigilance, and fasting;
Uj tzꞌapital pa cheꞌ, uj raputalik, bꞌantal kꞌax chaqe chikixoꞌl e kꞌi winaq, sibꞌalaj elinaq qawaram, kꞌi mul man ujwaꞌqinaq taj.
6 by chastity, knowledge, and longsuffering; in pleasantness, in the Holy Spirit, and in unfeigned charity;
Kujpatanijik rukꞌ chꞌajchꞌojil, rukꞌ etaꞌmabꞌal, rukꞌ utzilal, pa ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel xuqujeꞌ pa ri qas tzij loqꞌanik.
7 with the Word of truth, with the power of God, and with the armor of justice to the right and to 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 honor and dishonor, despite good reports and bad, whether seen as deceivers or truth-tellers, whether ignored or acknowledged;
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 if dying and yet truly alive; as if chastised and yet not subdued;
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 as if sorrowful and yet always rejoicing; as if needy and yet enriching many; as if having nothing and 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 Our mouth is open to you, O Corinthians; our heart is enlarged.
Qachalal aꞌj Corinto, qas xujtzijon iwukꞌ rukꞌ ronojel qanimaꞌ, je ta ne ri qas xqajaq ri qanimaꞌ chiꞌwach.
12 You are not narrowed by us, but it is by your own inner selves that you are narrowed.
Man xqakꞌekꞌej ta ri qaloqꞌanik chiꞌwe, pune ix ikꞌekꞌem ri iloqꞌanik chaqe uj.
13 But since we have the same recompense, (I am speaking as if to my own sons), you, too, should be enlarged.
Rech kꞌu je kujnoꞌjinik qonojel, (kixinchꞌabꞌej jer ta ne ix kꞌo walkꞌwaꞌl) chixloqꞌanoq jetaq ri kujloqꞌan uj.
14 Do not choose to bear the yoke with unbelievers. For how can justice be a participant with iniquity? Or how can the fellowship of light be a participant 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 And how can Christ join together with Belial? Or what part do the faithful have with the unfaithful?
¿La kꞌo kꞌu uriqoj ibꞌ ri Cristo rukꞌ ri Itzel? ¿La kꞌo jun jas ke junam ri kojonel rukꞌ ri man kojonel taj?
16 And what consensus does the temple of God have with idols? For you are the temple of the living God, just as God says: “I will dwell with them, and I will walk among them. And I will be their God, and they shall 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 Because of this, you must depart from their midst and be separate, says the Lord. And do not touch what is unclean.
Kꞌa te riꞌ xubꞌij chi ri Ajawxel: Chixel loq chikixoꞌl, chiqꞌata iwibꞌ chike. Man kichap taj jun chꞌuluj laj jastaq, rech kixinkꞌamawaꞌj na.
18 Then I will accept you. And I will be a Father to you, and you shall be sons and daughters to me, says the Lord Almighty.”
In kinux na iTat, ri ix kixux na nukꞌojol, numiꞌal, kacha ri Ajawxel ri kakwin chubꞌanik ronojel jastaq.
