John 3
1 There was nowe a man of the Pharises, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Iewes.
Kꞌo jun chike ri fariseos ubꞌiꞌ Nicodemo, jun kꞌamal bꞌe kech ri winaq aꞌj Israel.
2 This man came to Iesus by night, and sayd vnto him, Rabbi, we knowe ye thou art a teacher come from God: for no man could do these miracles that thou doest, except God were with him.
Jun chaqꞌabꞌil ri Nicodemo xuꞌsolij ri Jesús. Xubꞌij che: Ajtij, qetaꞌm chi are ri Dios xtaqow la loq, rumal cher maj chi jun kakwin chubꞌanik ri etal ri kabꞌan la, xaq xwi kakwin ri winaq chubꞌanik we jastaq riꞌ we kꞌo ri ukwinem ri Dios rukꞌ.
3 Iesus answered, and said vnto him, Verely, verely I say vnto thee, except a man be borne againe, he can not see the kingdome of God.
Ri Jesús xubꞌij che: Qas tzij kinbꞌij chawe chi ri winaq ri man kalax ta chik junmul, man kakwin taj kok pa ri ajawarem rech ri Dios.
4 Nicodemus sayde vnto him, Howe can a man be borne which is olde? can he enter into his mothers wombe againe, and be borne?
Ri Nicodemo xubꞌij che ri Jesús: ¿Jas kubꞌan jun achi rech kalax chik junmul? ¿La kakwin kꞌut kok chi bꞌik junmul chupam ri unan, kꞌa te riꞌ kalax chik?
5 Iesus answered, Verely, verely I say vnto thee, except that a man be borne of water and of the Spirite, hee can not enter into the kingdome of God.
Ri Jesús xubꞌij che: Qas tzij kinbꞌij chawe, ri man kalax taj che jaꞌ xuqujeꞌ che ri Uxlabꞌal man kakwin taj kok pa ri ajawarem rech ri Dios.
6 That which is borne of the flesh, is flesh: and that that is borne of the Spirit, is spirit.
Ri kakꞌiy chike winaq, winaq riꞌ, are kꞌu ri kakꞌiy che ri Uxlabꞌal rech ri Dios, uxlabꞌal riꞌ.
7 Marueile not that I said to thee, Yee must be borne againe.
Mat mayijanik che le xinbꞌij chawe: “Rajawaxik wi kixalax chik junmul.”
8 The winde bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it commeth, and whither it goeth: so is euery man that is borne of the Spirit.
Ri kyaqiqꞌ kajichꞌichꞌ xapawjeꞌ ri karaj wi. Kato kaxururik, man awetaꞌm ta kꞌut jawjeꞌ upetik wi xuqujeꞌ jawjeꞌ keꞌ wi. Je xuqujeꞌ kakꞌulmataj rukꞌ ri winaq ri kalax pa ri Uxlabꞌal.
9 Nicodemus answered, and said vnto him, Howe can these things be?
Ri Nicodemo xubꞌij che ri Jesús: ¿Jas che jewaꞌ kakꞌulmatajik?
10 Iesus answered, and saide vnto him, Art thou a teacher of Israel, and knowest not these things?
Ri Jesús xubꞌij che: ¿At ajtij kech ri winaq aꞌj Israel, man kachꞌobꞌ taj we jastaq riꞌ?
11 Verely, verely I say vnto thee, wee speake that we know, and testifie that we haue seene: but yee receiue not our witnesse.
Qas tzij kinbꞌij chawe, ri uj are kaqabꞌij ri qetaꞌm, xuqujeꞌ kaqaqꞌalajisaj ri qas qilom, ri ix kꞌut man kikoj taj ri kaqaqꞌalajisaj.
12 If when I tel you earthly things, ye beleeue not, howe should yee beleeue, if I shall tel you of heauenly things?
We man kikoj ri jastaq rech uwachulew ri nubꞌim chiꞌwe ¿la are ta kꞌu kikoj ri jastaq rech chikaj?
13 For no man ascendeth vp to heauen, but he that hath descended from heauen, that Sonne of man which is in heauen.
Maj jun paqalinaq pa ri kaj, xaq xwi ri in uKꞌojol ri Achi ri xqaj loq choch ri uwachulew.
14 And as Moses lift vp the serpent in the wildernesse, so must that Sonne of man be lift vp,
Jetaq ri xubꞌan ri Moisés xuxekebꞌa ri kumatz pa ri katzꞌinow ulew, je xuqujeꞌ kabꞌan na che uxekebꞌaxik ri uKꞌojol ri Achi.
Jeriꞌ rech xapachin ri kakojon che kuriq na kꞌaslemal ri maj ukꞌisik. (aiōnios g166)
16 For God so loued the worlde, that hee hath giuen his onely begotten Sonne, that whosoeuer beleeueth in him, should not perish, but haue euerlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
Ri Dios sibꞌalaj xuꞌloqꞌaj ri winaq ri e kꞌo choch ri uwachulew, xuya ri xa jun uKꞌojol rech xapachin ri kakojon che man kasach ta uwach xane kꞌo ukꞌaslemal ri maj ukꞌisik. (aiōnios g166)
17 For God sent not his Sonne into the world, that he should condemne the world, but that the world through him might be saued.
Ri Dios man xutaq ta loq ri uKꞌojol chuqꞌatik tzij pa kiwiꞌ ri winaq ri e kꞌo choch ri uwachulew, xane xpetik rech rumal rech kekolotaj ri winaq.
18 Hee that beleeueth in him, is not condemned: but hee that beleeueth not, is condemned already, because he hath not beleeued in the Name of that onely begotten Sonne of God.
Ri kakojon che Areꞌ man kaqꞌat taj tzij puꞌwiꞌ, are kꞌu ri man kakojon taj xqꞌat taj tzij riꞌ puꞌwiꞌ, rumal cher man xkojon taj che ri ubꞌiꞌ ri xa jun uKꞌojol ri Dios.
19 And this is the condemnation, that that light came into the worlde, and men loued darknesse rather then that light, because their deedes were euill.
Kaqꞌat tzij pa kiwiꞌ ri winaq rumal man xekojon taj che ri tunal ri xpe choch ri uwachulew, are utz xkil ri qꞌequꞌmal, jeriꞌ rumal itzel taq chak kakibꞌano.
20 For euery man that euill doeth, hateth the light, neither commeth to light, least his deedes should be reprooued.
Ri winaq ri kubꞌan etzelal, riꞌ karetzelaj ri tunal, man kaqebꞌ taj rukꞌ rumal cher kuxiꞌj ribꞌ chi kaqꞌalajin ri uchak.
21 But he that doeth trueth, commeth to the light, that his deedes might bee made manifest, that they are wrought according to God.
Are kꞌu ri winaq ri are karilij ubꞌanik ri chak rech ri tunal kaqebꞌ rukꞌ ri tunal rech jeriꞌ kaqꞌalajinik chi are ubꞌanom ri chak ri karaj ri Dios.
22 After these things, came Iesus and his disciples into the lande of Iudea, and there taried with them, and baptized.
Are xbꞌiꞌtaj we jastaq riꞌ, ri Jesús xeꞌ pa Judea, e rachiꞌl ri utijoxelabꞌ. Chilaꞌ xkꞌojiꞌ wi kebꞌ oxibꞌ qꞌij xubꞌan kiqasanaꞌ ri winaq.
23 And Iohn also baptized in Enon besides Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized.
Xuqujeꞌ ri Juan tajin kubꞌan qasanaꞌ pa ri tinimit Enón, ri kꞌo chuxukut ri tinimit Salín, rumal nim ri jaꞌ ri chilaꞌ. Rumal riꞌ xepe ri winaq, xulkiya kibꞌ rech kabꞌan kan kiqasanaꞌ.
24 For Iohn was not yet cast into prison.
(Xkꞌulmataj we riꞌ are majaꞌ kok ri Juan pa cheꞌ.)
25 Then there arose a question betweene Iohns disciples and the Iewes, about purifying.
Kꞌa te riꞌ xchapleꞌtaj jun chꞌoꞌj pa tzij puꞌwiꞌ ri qꞌij rech chꞌajchꞌobꞌen ibꞌ, chikixoꞌl ri utijoxelabꞌ ri Juan rachiꞌl jun achi aj Israel.
26 And they came vnto Iohn, and saide vnto him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Iorden, to whom thou barest witnesse, behold, he baptizeth, and all men come to him.
Ri utijoxelabꞌ ri Juan xeꞌkibꞌij che ri Juan: Ajtij, ri achi ri xopan awukꞌ che ri junmul chꞌaqaꞌp che ri Jordán, ri xaqꞌalajisaj chkiwach ri winaq, tajin kubꞌan qasanaꞌ, e kꞌi winaq tajin koꞌpan rukꞌ.
27 Iohn answered, and saide, A man can receiue nothing, except it be giuen him from heauen.
Ri Juan xubꞌij chike: Man kꞌo ta jun winaq kakwinik kubꞌan jun jastaq we man are ri Dios kayoꞌw kwinem che chubꞌanik.
28 Yee your selues are my witnesses, that I sayde, I am not that Christ, but that I am sent before him.
Xita ri xinbꞌij: “Man in taj in Cristo, xane xaq xwi xintaq loq nabꞌe choch Areꞌ.”
29 He that hath the bride, is the bridegrome: but the friend of the bridegrome which standeth and heareth him, reioyceth greatly, because of the bridegromes voyce. This my ioy therefore is fulfilled.
Ri jiꞌatz are qas kꞌo rukꞌ ri alibꞌatz. Ri rech chꞌabꞌeꞌn ri jiꞌatz ri kꞌo chuxukut kakiꞌkotik are kuta ri uchꞌabꞌal ri jiꞌatz. Are waꞌ ri kiꞌkotemal ri kꞌo pa wanimaꞌ in.
30 He must increase, but I must decrease.
Rajawaxik Areꞌ kakꞌiyik, are kꞌu ri in xa kakoꞌpij nukꞌiyem.
31 Hee that is come from an hie, is aboue all: he that is of the earth, is of the earth, and speaketh of the earth: hee that is come from heauen, is aboue all.
Ri jun ri kape na chilaꞌ chikaj are kꞌo pa kiwiꞌ kojonel, ri winaq ri ajuwachulew, ajuwachulew riꞌ, are karilij utzijoxik riꞌ ri jastaq rech uwachulew. Ri kape na chilaꞌ chikaj are kꞌo pa kiwiꞌ konojel ri winaq.
32 And what hee hath seene and heard, that he testifieth: but no man receiueth his testimonie.
Ri kape chilaꞌ chikaj kutzijoj ri rilom xuqujeꞌ utom, man kꞌo ta kꞌu jun katatabꞌen ri kubꞌij.
33 He that hath receiued his testimonie, hath sealed that God is true.
Ri winaq ri kutatabꞌej ri kubꞌij Areꞌ, kuqꞌalajisaj chi qas tzij ri kubꞌij ri Dios.
34 For hee whome God hath sent, speaketh the woordes of God: for God giueth him not the Spirit by measure.
Ri utaqoꞌn ri Dios kuqꞌalajisaj ri tzij rech chilaꞌ chikaj rumal cher ri Dios man kuqꞌatej taj uyaꞌik ri Uxlabꞌixel che ri winaq riꞌ.
35 The Father loueth the Sonne, and hath giuen all things into his hande.
Ri Tataxel Dios kuloqꞌaj ri Kꞌojolaxel rumal riꞌ ronojel ri jastaq uyaꞌom pa uqꞌabꞌ Areꞌ.
36 Hee that beleeueth in the Sonne, hath euerlasting life, and hee that obeyeth not the Sonne, shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him. (aiōnios g166)
Ri winaq ri kakojon che ri Kꞌojolaxel Dios, kꞌo ukꞌaslemal ri maj ukꞌisik, are kꞌu ri winaq ri karetzelaj ri Kꞌojolaxel Dios man kayaꞌtaj taj ukꞌaslemal xane kaqꞌat na tzij puꞌwiꞌ rumal ri Dios. (aiōnios g166)
