Romans 7
1 Knowe yee not, brethren, (for I speake to them that knowe the Lawe) that the Lawe hath dominion ouer a man as long as he liueth?
Qachalal, tajin kixinchꞌabꞌej ix ri iwetaꞌm ri utaqanik ri Moisés. ¿La man iwetaꞌm chi jun winaq kꞌo chuxeꞌ ri taqanik are kꞌaslik?
2 For the woman which is in subiection to a man, is bound by the Lawe to the man, while he liueth: but if the man bee dead, shee is deliuered from the lawe of the man.
Kinkoj jun kꞌambꞌejabꞌal noꞌj chiꞌwach. Ri kꞌulanik ixoq are kꞌaslik nukꞌtal rukꞌ ri rachajil rumal ri taqanik, we kꞌu kakam ri rachajil, ri ixoq kel kanoq chuxeꞌ ri taqanik ri e nukꞌuwinaq rukꞌ ri rachajil.
3 So then, if while the man liueth, she taketh another man, she shalbe called an adulteresse: but if the man be dead, she is free from the Law, so that shee is not an adulteresse, though shee take another man.
Rumal riꞌ, ri ixoq we kakꞌuliꞌ rukꞌ chi jun achi are kꞌas na ri rachajil, kux ajmak rumal kuꞌx e kebꞌ rachajil. Are kꞌu we kakam ri rachajil, ri ixoq kel kan chuxeꞌ ri taqanik, xuqujeꞌ man kamakun taj we kakꞌuliꞌ chi ne rukꞌ jun achi.
4 So yee, my brethren, are dead also to the Law by ye body of Christ, that ye should be vnto an other, euen vnto him that is raised vp from the dead, that we should bring foorth fruite vnto God.
Je xuqujeꞌ ri ix wachalal, xixkamik pa ri taqanik pa ri utyoꞌjal ri Cristo ri xripik, rech jeriꞌ kixux rech ri xkꞌastajisax chkixoꞌl ri kaminaqibꞌ. Rech jeriꞌ kꞌo kaqatayij che ri Dios.
5 For when we were in ye flesh, the affections of sinnes, which were by the Law, had force in our members, to bring foorth fruit vnto death.
Nabꞌe, are ri najtir qakꞌaslemal kabꞌan kan rech pa qawiꞌ, ri itzel taq rayinik ri xukꞌasuj ri taqanik rech jeriꞌ ri qatyoꞌjal, xux rech kamikal.
6 But now we are deliuered from the Lawe, he being dead in whom we were holden, that we should serue in newnesse of Spirite, and not in the oldnesse of the letter.
Kamik kꞌut man uj kꞌo ta chi chuxeꞌ ri taqanik, jeriꞌ rumal cher xujkam pa ri taqanik, xa jeriꞌ kujpatanij pa ri kꞌakꞌ ajawarem rech ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel, man chuxeꞌ taj ri taqanik.
7 What shall we say then? Is the Lawe sinne? God forbid. Nay, I knewe not sinne, but by the Lawe: for I had not knowen lust, except the Lawe had sayd, Thou shalt not lust.
¿Jas kꞌu ri kaqabꞌij? ¿La are kꞌu mak ri taqanik? Man are taj. Xwi kaqabꞌij chi we ta mat rumal ri taqanik mat xinwil ri numak, mat xinwetaꞌmaj jas riꞌ ri urayixik chi jun jastaq chik ri man rech ta jun, we ta mat kubꞌij ri taqanik: “Marayij ri man awech taj.”
8 But sinne tooke an occasion by ye commandement, and wrought in me all maner of concupiscence: for without the Lawe sinne is dead.
Ri mak kꞌut xnimatajik rumal ri taqanik, xukꞌasuj pa ri wanimaꞌ ronojel uwach itzel taq rayinik. Jeriꞌ, rumal chi we ta mat kꞌo ri taqanik, mat xukꞌut ribꞌ riꞌ ri mak.
9 For I once was aliue, without the Law: but when the commandement came, sinne reuiued,
Ojer kanoq man in kꞌo taj chuxeꞌ ri taqanik. Are xpe ri taqanik, xyaꞌtaj ukꞌaslemal ri makaj, ri in kꞌut xinkamik.
10 But I died: and the same commandement which was ordeined vnto life, was found to be vnto me vnto death.
Xinwilo chi ri taqanik ri chinuwach in kuya nukꞌaslemal, xuya kamikal chwe.
11 For sinne tooke occasion by the commandement, and deceiued me, and thereby slewe me.
Ri makaj rumal ri taqanik xinumenkꞌetij, rumal riꞌ xinukamisaj.
12 Wherefore the Lawe is holy, and that commandement is holy, and iust, and good.
Kꞌisbꞌal rech kaqabꞌij chi ri taqanik sibꞌalaj Tyox, sukꞌ xuqujeꞌ utz.
13 Was that then which is good, made death vnto me? God forbid: but sinne, that it might appeare sinne, wrought death in me by that which is good, that sinne might be out of measure sinfull by the commandement.
¿La are kꞌu xux utzilal chinuwach in ri kamikal? Man je ta riꞌ, xane are ri makaj rech kukꞌut ribꞌ chi are mak, xinukamisaj rukꞌ ri utzilal, rech rumal ri taqanik ri makaj xux itzel.
14 For we knowe that the Law is spirituall, but I am carnall, solde vnder sinne.
Qetaꞌm chi ri Taqanik rech ri uxlabꞌal, are kꞌu in xa in tyoꞌj, in kꞌayital pa uqꞌabꞌ ri mak.
15 For I alow not that which I do: for what I would, that do I not: but what I hate, that do I.
Rumal riꞌ man kinchꞌobꞌ taj ri kinbꞌano. Man kinbꞌan taj ri kawaj kinbꞌano, ri kinwetzelaj ubꞌanik, are kinbꞌano.
16 If I doe then that which I woulde not, I consent to the Lawe, that it is good.
We are kinbꞌan ri man kawaj taj kinbꞌano, tajin kinbꞌij riꞌ chi utz ri taqanik.
17 Nowe then, it is no more I, that doe it, but sinne that dwelleth in me.
Xaq jeriꞌ man in ta chik kinbꞌanow ri jastaq riꞌ, xane are ri makaj ri kꞌo chwe.
18 For I know, that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwelleth no good thing: for to wil is preset with me: but I find no meanes to perform that which is good.
Xuqujeꞌ wetaꞌm chi man kꞌo ta ri utzilal pa ri nutyoꞌjal, pune kawaj kinbꞌan ri utzilal, man kinkwin taj chubꞌanik.
19 For I doe not the good thing, which I would, but the euil, which I would not, that do I.
Rumal riꞌ man kinbꞌan taj ri utzilal ri kawaj kinbꞌano, xane are kinbꞌan ri etzelal ri man kawaj taj kinbꞌano.
20 Nowe if I do that I would not, it is no more I that doe it, but the sinne that dwelleth in me.
We kꞌu are kawaj kinbꞌan ri man kawaj taj kinbꞌano, man in ta chi riꞌ tajin kinbꞌanowik, xane are ri etzelal ri kꞌo pa wanimaꞌ.
21 I finde then that when I would doe good, I am thus yoked, that euill is present with me.
Xaq jeriꞌ are kawaj kinbꞌan ri utzilal, kinwil ri taqanik ri kubꞌij chi ri etzelal pa wanimaꞌ in kꞌo wi xuqujeꞌ are tajin kinwilij ubꞌanik.
22 For I delite in the Law of God, concerning the inner man:
Pa ri ukꞌuꞌx ri wanimaꞌ kinkiꞌkotebꞌej ri utaqanik ri Dios.
23 But I see another Law in my members, rebelling against the Lawe of my minde, and leading me captiue vnto the lawe of sinne, which is in my members.
Kinwil kꞌut chi pa ri nutyoꞌjal kꞌo chi jun taqanik, are taqanik rech ri makaj. We taqanik riꞌ kakitij chuqꞌabꞌ rukꞌ ri taqanik rech ri nuchomabꞌal, in utzꞌapim.
24 O wretched man that I am, who shall deliuer me from the body of this death!
¡Kꞌax we! ¿Jachin kakwinik kintoꞌw chech waꞌ we tyoꞌjal rech kamikal?
25 I thanke God through Iesus Christ our Lord. Then I my selfe in my minde serue the Lawe of God, but in my flesh the lawe of sinne.
Xa kꞌu kintyoxin che ri Dios, ri xinukiro pa Jesucristo ri Ajawxel. In rukꞌ ri nuchomabꞌal kinpatanij ri utaqanik ri Dios, are kꞌu ri nutyoꞌjal are kupatanij ri taqanik rech ri mak.
