< Galatians 4 >

1 Then I say, that the heire as long as hee is a childe, differeth nothing from a seruant, though he be Lord of all,
Kinbꞌij xuqujeꞌ, ri echaꞌnel are kꞌa nitzꞌ na, xaq e junam rukꞌ ri patanijel ri kꞌo pa ri ja, pune ri akꞌal are ajchoqꞌe ronojel ri jastaq.
2 But is vnder tutours and gouernours, vntil the time appointed of the Father.
Xane chajital kumal ri iꞌlol taq rech kꞌa jampaꞌ katzꞌaqat na ri junabꞌ ri karaj ri utat.
3 Euen so, we when wee were children, were in bondage vnder the rudiments of the world.
Je xuqujeꞌ uj, are majaꞌ qetaꞌm uwach ri Cristo, uj kꞌo chuxeꞌ ri jatꞌibꞌal rech ri uwachulew.
4 But when the fulnesse of time was come, God sent forth his Sonne made of a woman, and made vnder the Lawe,
Are xtzꞌaqat ri qꞌotaj, ri Dios xutaq loq ri Ukꞌojol, ri xkꞌiyik che jun ixoq xuqujeꞌ chuxeꞌ ri taqanik.
5 That hee might redeeme them which were vnder the Law, that we might receiue the adoption of the sonnes.
Rech jeriꞌ kekꞌam apanoq ri e kꞌo chuxeꞌ ri taqanik, rech kuꞌx alkꞌwaꞌlaxelabꞌ.
6 And because ye are sonnes, God hath sent foorth the Spirit of his Sonne into your heartes, which crieth, Abba, Father.
Rumal kꞌu che ri ixralkꞌwaꞌl chi ri Dios, ri Dios xutaq loq ri Uxlabꞌixel rech ri Ukꞌojol pa taq iwanimaꞌ rech jeriꞌ kixkwinik kibꞌij: ¡Tat!
7 Wherefore, thou art no more a seruant, but a sonne: now if thou be a sone, thou art also the heire of God through Christ.
Xaq jeriꞌ man at patanijel ta chik, xane at ralkꞌwaꞌl chi ri Dios, jeriꞌ rumal ri Dios xubꞌano echaꞌnel chawe.
8 But euen then, when ye knewe not God, yee did seruice vnto them, which by nature are not gods:
Ojer are majaꞌ iwetaꞌm uwach ri Dios, are kipatanij ri man e dios taj.
9 But now seeing ye knowe God, yea, rather are knowen of God, howe turne ye againe vnto impotent and beggerly rudiments, whereunto as from the beginning ye wil be in bondage againe?
Kamik kꞌut chi iwetaꞌm chi uwach ri Dios, o pa juleꞌ taq tzij chik ri Dios xretaꞌmaj iwach, ¿jas kꞌu che kiwaj kixtzalij kanoq chuxeꞌ ri chuqꞌabꞌ ri karaj kubꞌan rech piꞌwiꞌ?
10 Ye obserue dayes, and moneths, and times and yeeres.
Ri ix xaq jeꞌ nim tajin kiwil ri qꞌij, ri ikꞌ xuqujeꞌ ri junabꞌ rech taq ri nimaqꞌij.
11 I am in feare of you, lest I haue bestowed on you labour in vaine.
Kinxiꞌj wibꞌ are kinchomaj iwij, rukꞌ jubꞌiqꞌ man kꞌo ta xutayij ri xinchakuj iwukꞌ.
12 Be ye as I (for I am euen as you) brethren, I beseech you: ye haue not hurt me at all.
Wachalal kixinbꞌochiꞌj rech qas je kixuxik jetaq ri in, jeriꞌ rumal in xuqujeꞌ je xinuxik jetaq ri ix. Kinbꞌij we riꞌ, man xa ta rumal ibꞌanom kꞌax chwe.
13 And ye know, how through infirmitie of the flesh, I preached ye Gospel vnto you at the first.
Jeriꞌ rumal iwetaꞌm chi rumal rech jun yabꞌil pa ri nutyoꞌjal, xintzijoj ri utz laj tzij chiꞌwe.
14 And the trial of me which was in my flesh, ye despised not, neither abhorred: but ye receiued me as an Angel of God, yea, as Christ Iesus.
Pune kꞌax xiriq wukꞌ rumal ri yabꞌilal ri kꞌo chwe, man xiniwetzelaj taj, xane je xibꞌan chinukꞌamawaꞌxik jetaq jun ángel rech ri Dios, jetaq ta ne ri Cristo Jesús.
15 What was then your felicitie? for I beare you recorde, that if it had bene possible, ye would haue plucked out your owne eyes, and haue giuen them vnto me.
Je kꞌu riꞌ ¿jas kꞌu xkꞌulmatajik rukꞌ ri kiꞌkotemal ri xinaꞌo? Qas tzij wi, xinwilo chi we ta xixkwinik, xiwesaj ta riꞌ ri ibꞌoqꞌoch rech xiya chwe.
16 Am I therefore become your enemie, because I tell you the trueth?
¿La xa kꞌu xibꞌan ikꞌulel chwe rumal xinbꞌij ri qas tzij chiꞌwe?
17 They are ielous ouer you amisse: yea, they woulde exclude you, that ye shoulde altogether loue them.
Ri e winaq ri kakibꞌij chi kel kikꞌuꞌx chiꞌwe, man tzij taq chi qas are kakaj ri utzilal chiꞌwe. Are kakaj kixkiqꞌat chaqe rech kixeꞌ kukꞌ.
18 But it is a good thing to loue earnestly alwayes in a good thing, and not onely when I am present with you,
Utz riꞌ we amaqꞌel kel ukꞌuꞌx jun che jun chik, man xwi ta are in kꞌo iwukꞌ.
19 My litle children, of whome I trauaile in birth againe, vntill Christ be formed in you.
Alaj taq walkꞌwaꞌl, kinnaꞌ chi junmul qꞌoxom iwumal iwe jetaq ri jun nan ri kakꞌojiꞌ ral, kꞌa jampaꞌ katzꞌaqat na ri Cristo pa iwanimaꞌ.
20 And I would I were with you nowe, that I might change my voyce: for I am in doubt of you.
Are kawaj we ta in kꞌo apanoq iwukꞌ rech qas ko kixinchꞌabꞌej, jeriꞌ rumal qas kinmayijanik rumal ri kixnoꞌjinik.
21 Tell me, ye that will be vnder the Law, doe ye not heare the Lawe?
Chibꞌijmpe ix chwe, ri kiwaj kixkꞌojiꞌk chuxeꞌ ri taqanik: ¿La man kꞌu itatabꞌem ri kubꞌij ri taqanik?
22 For it is written, that Abraham had two sonnes, one by a seruant, and one by a free woman.
Ri Tzꞌibꞌatalik kubꞌij chi ri Abraham xekꞌojiꞌ e kebꞌ ukꞌojol, jun rukꞌ ri patanijel xuqujeꞌ jun rukꞌ ri qas rixoqil.
23 But he which was of the seruant, was borne after the flesh: and he which was of the free woman, was borne by promise.
Ri ral ri patanijel xalaxik xaq pa ri tyoꞌjal, are kꞌu ri ral ri qas ixoqilom, xalaxik rumal jeriꞌ bꞌiꞌtal loq.
24 By the which things another thing is meant: for these mothers are the two testaments, the one which is Agar of mount Sina, which gendreth vnto bondage.
We xtzijox loq riꞌ, jun kꞌutbꞌal, jeriꞌ rumal we kebꞌ ixoqibꞌ riꞌ are ri kebꞌ chꞌekom tzij: jun kape je laꞌ puꞌwiꞌ ri juyubꞌ Sinaí, e kꞌo ral rech kuꞌx patanijelabꞌ, ri ubꞌiꞌ ri ixoq riꞌ are Agar.
25 (For Agar or Sina is a mountaine in Arabia, and it answereth to Hierusalem which nowe is) and she is in bondage with her children.
Jeriꞌ rumal ri Agar are karetwachij ri juyubꞌ ri kꞌo pa Arabia, are ri Jerusalén rech kamik. Jeriꞌ rumal areꞌ xuqujeꞌ ri e ral e kꞌo chuxeꞌ ri taqanik.
26 But Hierusalem, which is aboue, is free: which is the mother of vs all.
Are kꞌu ri Sara are karetwachij ri kꞌakꞌ chꞌekom tzij, ri karetwachij ri Jerusalén ri kꞌo chikaj, are wa ri qatinimit uj ri man uj jatꞌital ta chik.
27 For it is written, Reioyce thou barren that bearest no children: breake forth, and cry, thou that trauailest not: for the desolate hath many moe children, then she which hath an husband.
Jeriꞌ rumal ri Tzꞌibꞌatalik kubꞌij: Chatkiꞌkotoq at ixoq ri man e kꞌolinaq taj awal pa ri uwachulew, at ri man xanaꞌ ta wi ri qꞌoxom jetaq ri kunaꞌ jun ixoq are kakꞌojiꞌ jun ral; Jeriꞌ rumal sibꞌalaj e kꞌi na ri awal kekꞌojiꞌ cho ri e ral ri kꞌulanik ixoq.
28 Therefore, brethren, wee are after the maner of Isaac, children of the promise.
Xaq jeriꞌ Qachalal, uj uj ralkꞌwaꞌl ri tzujtal loq, jetaq ri Isaac.
29 But as then hee that was borne after the flesh, persecuted him that was borne after the Spirit, euen so it is nowe.
Are kꞌu ri alkꞌwaꞌlaxel ri xkꞌiy pa ri tyoꞌjal, kubꞌan kꞌax che ri xkꞌiy pa ri Uxlabꞌal, xaq jeꞌ kakꞌulmataj we riꞌ kamik.
30 But what sayth the Scripture? Put out the seruant and her sonne: for the sonne of the seruant shall not be heire with the sonne of the free woman.
¿Jas kꞌu kubꞌij ri Tzꞌibꞌatalik? Chawesaj bꞌik ri patanijel rachiꞌl ri ral, jeriꞌ rumal man junam ta ri kechabꞌal, ri ral ri patanijel rukꞌ ri ral ri qas ixoqilom.
31 Then brethren, we are not children of the seruant, but of the free woman.
Xaq jeriꞌ Qachalal, man uj ral ta ri ixoq patanijel xane uj ral ri qas ixoqilom.
