< Acts 13 >

1 Now there were in the church which was at Antioch, prophets and doctors, among whom was Barnabas, and Simon who was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manahen, who was the foster brother of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
E kꞌo kꞌu qꞌalajisal taq rech ri utzij ri Dios xuqujeꞌ aꞌjtijabꞌ pa ri komontyox rech ri tinimit Antioquía pa Siria, ri Bernabé, ri Simón (ri kabꞌix Qꞌeq che), ri Lucio (aj Cirene), ri Manaén ri junam xekꞌiy rukꞌ ri Herodes Antipas, xuqujeꞌ ri Saulo.
2 And as they were ministering to the Lord, and fasting, the Holy Ghost said to them: Separate me Saul and Barnabas, for the work whereunto I have taken them.
Jun qꞌijal are tajin kakibꞌan chꞌawem xuqujeꞌ tajin kakiqꞌip kiwaꞌim, ri Uxlabꞌixel xubꞌij chike: Chiꞌqꞌata ri Bernabé rachiꞌl ri Saulo rech kebꞌe che ri chak ri e nusikꞌim wi.
3 Then they, fasting and praying, and imposing their hands upon them, sent them away.
Xkibꞌan kꞌu qꞌipoj waꞌim xuqujeꞌ xkibꞌan chꞌawem pa kiwiꞌ ri Saulo rachiꞌl ri Bernabé xkiya kiqꞌabꞌ pa kiwiꞌ, kꞌa te riꞌ xeꞌkitaq bꞌik.
4 So they being sent by the Holy Ghost, went to Seleucia: and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.
Ri Uxlabꞌixel xutaq bꞌik ri Bernabé rachiꞌl ri Saulo xebꞌe chuchiꞌ ri jaꞌ rech Seleucia kelik bꞌi chilaꞌ xebꞌe puꞌwiꞌ ri jaꞌ xoꞌpan pa jun leꞌaj sutital che jaꞌ pa ri tinimit Chipre.
5 And when they were come to Salamina, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had John also in the ministry.
Are xoꞌpan pa ri tinimit Salamina, xoꞌk pa ri Sinagoga kech ri winaq aꞌj Israel chilaꞌ xkitzijoj wi ri utzij ri Dios. Ri Juan Marcos xeꞌ kukꞌ chikitoꞌik.
6 And when they had gone through the whole island, as far as Paphos, they found a certain man, a magician, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Bar-jesu:
Xebꞌe pa jaljoj taq tinimit kꞌa te riꞌ xoꞌpan pa ri tinimit Pafos. Chilaꞌ xketaꞌmaj wi uwach jun ajqꞌij, jun menkꞌetinel aꞌj Israel ubꞌiꞌ Barjesús.
7 Who was with the proconsul Sergius Paulus, a prudent man. He sending for Barnabas and Saul, desired to hear the word of God.
Ri achi riꞌ kachakun rukꞌ ri qꞌatal tzij, Sergio Paulo, jun qꞌatal tzij ri sibꞌalaj kꞌo retaꞌmabꞌal. Xtaqan kꞌu chikisikꞌixik ri Bernabé rachiꞌl ri Saulo, rumal cher karaj kuta ri utzij ri Dios.
8 But Elymas the magician (for so his name is interpreted) withstood them, seeking to turn away the proconsul from the faith.
Are kꞌu ri Elimas ri ajqꞌij (are waꞌ ri ubꞌiꞌ pa tzijobꞌal griego) xukoj ukꞌuꞌx ri nim qꞌatal tzij rech man kutatabꞌej ta ri kakitzijoj ri Bernabé rachiꞌl ri Saulo rech jeriꞌ man kakojon taj.
9 Then Saul, otherwise Paul, filled with the Holy Ghost, looking upon him,
Ri Saulo ubꞌiꞌ Pablo xnoj che ri Uxlabꞌixel ko xukaꞌyej ri achi.
10 Said: O full of all guile, and of all deceit, child of the devil, enemy of all justice, thou ceasest not to pervert the right ways of the Lord.
Kꞌa te riꞌ xubꞌij che: ¡Ralkꞌwaꞌl itzel, at ukꞌulel ri sukꞌal, at nojinaq che menkꞌetinik, xuqujeꞌ bꞌanoj tzij. At ukꞌulel ronojel utzilal! ¿Jampaꞌ kattaniꞌk chukotik ri utz laj ubꞌe ri Ajawxel?
11 And now behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a time. And immediately there fell a mist and darkness upon him, and going about, he sought some one to lead him by the hand.
Ri Ajawxel kꞌut kuqꞌat tzij paꞌwiꞌ rumal riꞌ katmoyar chanim. Man kawil ta chi ri utunal ri qꞌij jun janipa qꞌij. Jeriꞌ aninaq xok sutzꞌ xuqujeꞌ qꞌequꞌmal pa ri ubꞌoqꞌoch ri achi, xuchapleꞌj bꞌinem, man karil ta chi ri ubꞌe, xa xuta chi toqꞌobꞌ xtzuyexik kakꞌut ri ubꞌe.
12 Then the proconsul, when he had seen what was done, believed, admiring at the doctrine of the Lord.
Ri qꞌatal tzij are xril ri xkꞌulmatajik, xkojonik rumal xmayijanik che ri kꞌutuꞌn rech ri Ajawxel Jesús.
13 Now when Paul and they that were with him had sailed from Paphos, they came to Perge in Pamphylia. And John departing from them, returned to Jerusalem.
Ri Pablo xuqujeꞌ ri e rachiꞌl xeꞌl bꞌik pa ri tinimit Pafos, xebꞌe pa jun jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal puꞌwiꞌ ri jaꞌ, xebꞌe pa ri tinimit Panfilia. Xoꞌpan chuchiꞌ ri jaꞌ pa ri tinimit Perge. Chilaꞌ xtzalij wi kanoq ri Juan Marcos xeꞌ kanoq pa Jerusalén.
14 But they passing through Perge, came to Antioch in Pisidia: and entering into the synagogue on the sabbath day, they sat down.
Ri Pablo kꞌut rachiꞌl ri Bernabé xkisukꞌu xoꞌpan pa ri tinimit Antioquía pa Pisidia. Pa ri qꞌij rech uxlanem xebꞌe pa ri mulim ibꞌ pa ri Sinagoga.
15 And after the reading of the law and the prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying: Ye men, brethren, if you have any word of exhortation to make to the people, speak.
Are xsikꞌitaj ri wuj rech ri Moisés, ri naqꞌatalik kakisikꞌij xuqujeꞌ ri kiwuj ri e qꞌalajisal taq rech ri utzij ri Dios, ri e kꞌamal taq bꞌe kech ri winaq ri kimulin kibꞌ xkitaq ubꞌixik chike: Alaxik, we kꞌo tzij iwukꞌ ri kuya jororemal xuqujeꞌ kuꞌtaqchiꞌj ri alaxik kebꞌe chikiwach, chixqꞌaxoq jiꞌbꞌij.
16 Then Paul rising up, and with his hand bespeaking silence, said: Ye men of Israel, and you that fear God, give ear.
Xwaꞌjil kꞌu ri Pablo, pa memal tzij xubꞌij chike chi man kechꞌaw ta na kꞌa te riꞌ xuchapleꞌj chꞌawem xubꞌij: Chitampeꞌ, achyabꞌ aꞌj Israel xuqujeꞌ ri ix man ix aꞌj Israel taj, ri kixiꞌj iwibꞌ cho ri Dios.
17 The God of the people of Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they were sojourners in the land of Egypt, and with an high arm brought them out from thence,
Ri Dios rech we tinimit Israel xuꞌchaꞌ ri qamam ojer, xuꞌkꞌiyarisaj, xuya kichuqꞌabꞌ are xekꞌojiꞌ pa ri tinimit Egipto, kꞌa te riꞌ rukꞌ ri kwinel laj uqꞌabꞌ xeꞌresaj loq pa ri patanijik.
18 And for the space of forty years endured their manners in the desert.
Xukochꞌ uwach chike kawinaq junabꞌ are xebꞌin pa ri katzꞌinow ulew.
19 And destroying seven nations in the land of Chanaan, divided their land among them, by lot,
Xusach kiwach wuqubꞌ tinimit ri e kꞌo pa Canaán rech jeriꞌ xuya ri ulew chike ri winaq aꞌj Israel.
20 As it were, after four hundred and fifty years: and after these things, he gave unto them judges, until Samuel the prophet.
We jastaq riꞌ xkꞌulmatajik kajibꞌ ciento rukꞌ kawinaq lajuj junabꞌ. Kꞌa te riꞌ ri Dios xuꞌkoj qꞌatal taq tzij kꞌamal taq kibꞌe ri tinimit Israel, ri kꞌisbꞌal qꞌatal tzij are ri Samuel.
21 And after that they desired a king: and God gave them Saul the son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, forty years.
Ri winaq xkita kꞌu jun kitaqanel, ri Dios xuya chike ri Saúl ukꞌojol ri Cis, rech ri jupuq winaq rech Benjamín are waꞌ xtaqan pa Israel kawinaq junabꞌ.
22 And when he had removed him, he raised them up David to be king: to whom giving testimony, he said: I have found David, the son of Jesse, a man according to my own heart, who shall do all my wills.
Ri Dios are xresaj ri Saúl che taqanel, xukoj ri David che ukꞌaxel, are waꞌ ri xbꞌix che rumal ri Dios: Ri David ukꞌojol ri Isaí are qas kaqaj chinuwach, rumal cher kubꞌan na ronojel ri kinbꞌij che kubꞌano.
23 Of this man’s seed God according to his promise, hath raised up to Israel a Saviour, Jesus:
Ri Jesús kꞌut are jun chike ri e rijaꞌl ri David are waꞌ ri kolonel uchiꞌm loq ri Dios chike ri utinimit Israel.
24 John first preaching, before his coming, the baptism of penance to all the people of Israel.
Majoꞌq kape ri Jesús, are xpe ri Juan Bꞌanal qasanaꞌ, xubꞌij chike ri winaq aꞌj Israel chi rajawaxik kakikꞌex kikꞌuꞌx che ri kimak, ketzalij rukꞌ ri Dios, xuqujeꞌ kabꞌan kiqasanaꞌ.
25 And when John was fulfilling his course, he said: I am not he, whom you think me to be: but behold, there cometh one after me, whose shoes of his feet I am not worthy to loose.
Are xuriq ri kꞌisbꞌal qꞌij rech ukꞌaslemal ri Juan, xubꞌij: “¿Teꞌq piꞌkꞌuꞌx chi in in Mesías? Man in taj. Kape kꞌu na Areꞌ, man taqal ta kꞌu chwe in kinoq che patanil re, man ne taqal ta chwe kinkir ri ximbꞌal uxajabꞌ.”
26 Men, brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you fear God, to you the word of this salvation is sent.
Qachalal ralkꞌwaꞌl ri Abraham xuqujeꞌ winaq ri man ix aꞌj Israel taj ix ri kixiꞌj iwibꞌ cho ri Dios, we tzij rech kolotajem chaqe uj xyaꞌtaj wi.
27 For they that inhabited Jerusalem, and the rulers thereof, not knowing him, nor the voices of the prophets, which are read every sabbath, judging him have fulfilled them.
Ri winaq aꞌj Jerusalén, xuqujeꞌ ri kꞌamal taq kibꞌe man xkichꞌobꞌ taj chi ri Jesús xtzijox loq kumal ri qꞌalajisal taq rech ri utzij ri Dios. Rumal riꞌ xkiqꞌat tzij puꞌwiꞌ je xkibꞌano jetaq ri kitzijom loq ri qꞌalajisal taq rech ri utzij ri Dios, ri kasikꞌix pa ronojel taq qꞌij rech uxlanem.
28 And finding no cause of death in him, they desired of Pilate, that they might kill him.
Man kꞌo ta kꞌu rumal kakamisaxik, pune jeriꞌ xkita wi che ri Pilato chi kakamisaxik.
29 And when they had fulfilled all things that were written of him, taking him down from the tree, they laid him in a sepulchre.
Are xbꞌantaj kumal ronojel ri tzꞌibꞌatal chrij ri Jesús, xkiqasaj cho ri cheꞌ kꞌa te riꞌ xeꞌkimuqu kanoq.
30 But God raised him up from the dead the third day:
Ri Dios kꞌut xukꞌastajisaj uwach chkixoꞌl ri kaminaqibꞌ.
31 Who was seen for many days, by them who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who to this present are his witnesses to the people.
Ri Jesús xukꞌut ribꞌ sibꞌalaj kꞌi mul chikiwach ri winaq ri xebꞌin rukꞌ kelik loq pa Galilea xebꞌe pa ri tinimit Jerusalén. Kamik riꞌ, are waꞌ we winaq riꞌ ketzijon ri ukamikal xuqujeꞌ ri kꞌastajibꞌal uwach ri Jesús chike ri tinimit Israel.
32 And we declare unto you, that the promise which was made to our fathers,
Kamik riꞌ, uj kꞌo waral chutzijoxik ri utz laj tzij ri bꞌiꞌtal loq chike ri e qamam ojer.
33 This same God hath fulfilled to our children, raising up Jesus, as in the second psalm also is written: Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.
Ri Dios xubꞌano ri ubꞌim loq chaqe are xukꞌastajisaj uwach ri Jesús. Are waꞌ ri kubꞌij ri ukabꞌ Salmo che ri Jesús. At at nukꞌojol, kamik riꞌ xinux aTat.
34 And to shew that he raised him up from the dead, not to return now any more to corruption, he said thus: I will give you the holy things of David faithful.
Ri Dios xubꞌij loq chi kuwaꞌjilisaj na ri Jesús chikixoꞌl ri kaminaqibꞌ, man xuya ta kanoq pa ri jul rech kaqꞌayik, xubꞌij xuqujeꞌ: Kinya na ri Tyoxalaj tewechibꞌal ri nuchiꞌm loq che ri David.
35 And therefore, in another place also, he saith: Thou shalt not suffer thy holy one to see corruption.
Kꞌo chi jun Salmo ri kꞌyaqal kubꞌan chubꞌixik: Man kaya ta la bꞌe chi ri Tyox patanil e la kaqꞌay pa ri jul.
36 For David, when he had served in his generation, according to the will of God, slept: and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption.
We Salmo riꞌ man are ta kutzijoj rij ri David. Ri David are xepatanitaj ri e rach kꞌiyik, xkam bꞌik, xmuq kukꞌ ri ratiꞌt umam, xqꞌay ri areꞌ.
37 But he whom God hath raised from the dead, saw no corruption.
Man are ta kutzijoj rij ri David xane jun winaq chik ri xkꞌastajisax rumal ri Dios ri man xqꞌay ta ri ubꞌaqil.
38 Be it known therefore to you, men, brethren, that through him forgiveness of sins is preached to you: and from all the things, from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.
Qachalal, chitampeꞌ, uj kꞌo waral che uqꞌalajisaxik chi kꞌo kuybꞌal imak rumal ri Jesús.
39 In him every one that believeth, is justified.
Xapachin ri kakojon che ri Jesús kabꞌantaj sukꞌ che cho ri Dios, are waꞌ ri man xkwin ta ri utaqanik ri Moisés xubꞌano.
40 Beware, therefore, lest that come upon you which is spoken in the prophets:
Qas chixchomanoq rech man kakꞌulmataj ta iwukꞌ ri xkibꞌij loq ri e qꞌalajisal taq rech ri utzij ri Dios, are xkibꞌij:
41 Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which you will not believe, if any man shall tell it you.
Chiwilampeꞌ ix ri ix ajyoqꞌolobꞌ, chixmayijanoq xuqujeꞌ sach iwach, rumal cher tajin kinbꞌan jun jastaq ri pune kꞌo katzijon chiꞌwe man kikoj ta wi riꞌ.
42 And as they went out, they desired them, that on the next sabbath, they would speak unto them these words.
Ri Pablo rachiꞌl ri Bernabé are xeꞌl loq pa ri Sinagoga xebꞌochiꞌx kumal ri winaq rech kakitzalij utzijoxik ri jastaq pa jun qꞌij chik rech uxlanem.
43 And when the synagogue was broken up, many of the Jews, and of the strangers who served God, followed Paul and Barnabas: who speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.
E kꞌi winaq aꞌj Israel xuqujeꞌ winaq ri xkibꞌan aꞌj Israel chibꞌil kibꞌ xeꞌkitereneꞌj ri Pablo rachiꞌl ri Bernabé. Konojel we winaq riꞌ xeꞌkitaqchiꞌj ri Pablo rachiꞌl ri Bernabé rech kajeqiꞌ kikꞌuꞌx pa ri utoqꞌobꞌ ri Dios.
44 But the next sabbath day, the whole city almost came together, to hear the word of God.
Che ri jun qꞌij chik rech uxlanem, konojel ri winaq rech ri tinimit xkimulij kibꞌ chutayik ri utzij ri Dios.
45 And the Jews seeing the multitudes, were filled with envy, and contradicted those things which were said by Paul, blaspheming.
Ri winaq aꞌj Israel are xkil ri kikꞌyal ri winaq, itzel xkinaꞌo xkichapleꞌj ubꞌixik bꞌanoj taq tzij chirij ri Pablo, xkichapleꞌj ukꞌululaꞌxik ronojel ri kubꞌij.
46 Then Paul and Barnabas said boldly: To you it behoved us first to speak the word of God: but because you reject it, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold we turn to the Gentiles. (aiōnios g166)
Ri Pablo xuqujeꞌ ri Bernabé xkibꞌij rukꞌ chuqꞌabꞌ: Sibꞌalaj rajawaxik nabꞌe kaqatzijoj ri utzij ri Dios chiꞌwe ix, ri ix aj Israel, rumal kꞌu cher xiwetzelaj uwach kinaꞌo chi man kataqiꞌ ta chiꞌwe ri jun alik kꞌaslemal, rumal riꞌ kaqatzijoj chi we tzij riꞌ chike ri winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj. (aiōnios g166)
47 For so the Lord hath commanded us: I have set thee to be the light of the Gentiles; that thou mayest be for salvation unto the utmost part of the earth.
Ri Ajawxel xuya we taqanik riꞌ chaqe are xubꞌij: At nuyaꞌom chikitunaxik ri winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj, rech katzijoj ri koltajem pa taq ri naja taq tinimit rech ri uwachulew.
48 And the Gentiles hearing it, were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to life everlasting, believed. (aiōnios g166)
Ri winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj are xkita ri xbꞌixik, xetyoxin che ri Ajawxel rumal ri utzij, konojel ri e chaꞌtal chukꞌamawaꞌxik ri jun alik kꞌaslemal, xekojonik. (aiōnios g166)
49 And the word of the Lord was published throughout the whole country.
Ri utzij ri Dios xjabꞌun pa ri tinimit riꞌ.
50 But the Jews stirred up religious and honourable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas: and cast them out of their coasts.
Are kꞌu ri kꞌamal taq kibꞌe ri winaq aꞌj Israel xeꞌkitaqchiꞌj ixoqibꞌ ri muꞌl kikꞌuꞌx pa ri kinaqꞌatajibꞌal xuqujeꞌ e kꞌamal taq bꞌe rech ri tinimit rech xkimulij kibꞌ chikij ri Pablo rachiꞌl ri Bernabé rech jeriꞌ xeꞌkesaj bꞌik pa ri tinimit.
51 But they, shaking off the dust of their feet against them, came to Iconium.
Ri Pablo rachiꞌl ri Bernabé xeꞌl loq pa ri tinimit, xkitota kan ri ulew che ri kaqan kꞌutbꞌal rech chi maj kimak chike ri winaq we kape kꞌaxkꞌolal pa kiwiꞌ. Kꞌa te riꞌ xebꞌe pa ri tinimit Iconio.
52 And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Ghost.
Ri tijoxelabꞌ xenoj che kiꞌkotemal xuqujeꞌ che ri Uxlabꞌixel.
