< Titus 1 >
1 Paul a seruaunt of God, and an Apostle of Iesus Christ, according to the faith of Gods elect, and the acknowledging of the trueth, which is according vnto godlines,
Ri Pablo, patanil rech ri Dios xuqujeꞌ utaqoꞌn ri Jesucristo, sikꞌital apanoq rumal ri kojobꞌal, chaꞌtal rumal ri Dios che ukꞌutik ri qas tzij ri kukꞌutu jas kabꞌan chukꞌaslebꞌexik ri utz laj taq kꞌaslemal.
2 Vnto the hope of eternall life, which God that cannot lie, hath promised before the world began: (aiōnios )
Ri ukuꞌlibꞌal qakꞌuꞌx are ri jun alik kꞌaslemal, ri Dios ri man bꞌanal tzij taj ubꞌim loq are kꞌamajaꞌ katikitaj loq ri qꞌij junabꞌ. (aiōnios )
3 But hath made his worde manifest in due time through the preaching, which is committed vnto me, according to the commandement of God our Sauiour:
Xuqꞌalajisaj ri utzij qas pa ri uqꞌijal rumal ri utaqanik ri Dios qakolonel ri xya chwe chi kintzijoj.
4 To Titus my naturall sonne according to the common faith, Grace, mercie and peace from God the Father, and from the Lord Iesus Christ our Sauiour.
Che ri Tito qas nukꞌojol, ri junam qakojobꞌal rukꞌ. Yaꞌtaj toqꞌobꞌ chawe, toqꞌobꞌisan wach xuqujeꞌ ri jaꞌmaril rech ri Dios Tataxel, ri Ajawxel Cristo Jesús qakolonel.
5 For this cause left I thee in Creta, that thou shouldest continue to redresse the thinges that remaine, and shouldest ordeine Elders in euery citie, as I appointed thee,
Xatinya kan pa ri tinimit Creta, rech kasukꞌumaj ri kajawataj ubꞌanik, xuqujeꞌ kaꞌkoj kꞌamal taq bꞌe pa taq ri tinimit, jetaq ri xinbꞌij kan chawe.
6 If any be vnreproueable, the husband of one wife, hauing faithfull children, which are not slandered of riot, neither are disobedient.
Rajawaxik chi ri kꞌamal bꞌe man kariqitaj ta etzelal pa ri ukꞌaslemal, xa jun rixoqil, e kojonelabꞌ ri ralkꞌwaꞌl, maj etzelal katataj chike e nimanelabꞌ.
7 For a Bishop must bee vnreproueable, as Gods steward, not froward, not angrie, not giuen to wine, no striker, not giuen to filthie lucre,
Ri kꞌamal bꞌe pa ri uchak ri Dios rajawaxik chi man kariqitaj ta etzelal pa ri ukꞌaslemal man kunaꞌ ta nimal, man aninaq taj kayakataj royawal, man kaqꞌabꞌar taj, man tzukul chꞌoꞌj taj, man kajiqꞌjat ta che ri pwaq ri man uchꞌekoj taj.
8 But harberous, one that loueth goodnesse, wise, righteous, holy, temperate,
Xane rajawaxik kuya kiwa xuqujeꞌ kachoch ri kesolinik, bꞌanal utzilal, kꞌo retaꞌmabꞌal, sukꞌ, tyoxalaj winaq, xuqujeꞌ qas kuchomaj ri kubꞌano.
9 Holding fast that faithfull worde according to doctrine, that he also may bee able to exhort with wholesome doctrine, and conuince them that say against it.
Kꞌolol re ri sukꞌalaj tzij ri kꞌuttal choch, rech kakwinik kuꞌtaqchiꞌj nikꞌaj chik rukꞌ ri utz laj kꞌutuꞌn rech kuꞌchekꞌ ri kekꞌululaꞌnik.
10 For there are many disobedient and vaine talkers and deceiuers of mindes, chiefly they of the Circumcision,
Rumal cher sibꞌalaj e kꞌi man keniman taj xuqujeꞌ xaq japastaq kakitzijoj, e menkꞌetinelabꞌ, are qas kebꞌanow ri winaq ri kꞌo ketal che ri kityoꞌjal.
11 Whose mouthes must bee stopped, which subuert whole houses, teaching things, which they ought not, for filthie lucres sake.
Rajawaxik katzꞌapix ri upakichiꞌ waꞌ we winaq riꞌ, rumal cher tajin keꞌkitukij winaq ri e wokol pa ri kachoch; kakikꞌut jastaq ri man utz ta ukꞌutik chi resaxik pwaq chike ri winaq.
12 One of themselues, euen one of their owne prophets said, The Cretians are alwaies liars, euill beastes, slowe bellies.
Kꞌo jun chike ri e kiqꞌalajisanelabꞌ xubꞌij: Ri winaq ri kel pa ri tinimit Creta e bꞌanal taq tzij wi, itzel taq aꞌwaj, e saqꞌoribꞌ ri xaq kakipaqꞌ kipam.
13 This witnesse is true: wherefore conuince them sharply, that they may be sound in ye faith,
Qas tzij kꞌu wi, rumal riꞌ ko chaꞌyajaꞌ, rech kuꞌtzir pa ri kikojobꞌal,
14 And not taking heede to Iewish fables and commandements of men, that turne away from the trueth.
rech man kakikoj ta ri menkꞌetibꞌal ke ri winaq aꞌj Israel, xuqujeꞌ man kakikoj ta ke ri winaq ri kakiqꞌat kibꞌ che ri qas tzij.
15 Vnto the pure are all things pure, but vnto them that are defiled, and vnbeleeuing, is nothing pure, but euen their mindes and consciences are defiled.
Ronojel jastaq chꞌajchꞌoj chikiwach ri winaq ri e chꞌajchꞌoj, chikiwach kꞌu ri qꞌayinaq taq winaq xuqujeꞌ ri man kekojon taj, maj jun jastaq chꞌajchꞌoj rumal cher ri kakichomaj xuqujeꞌ ri kichomabꞌal qꞌayinaq chik.
16 They professe that they know God, but by works they deny him, and are abominable and disobedient, and vnto euery good worke reprobate.
Kakibꞌij chi ketaꞌm uwach ri Dios, rukꞌ kꞌu ri kichak kaqꞌalajinik chi man tzij taj ri kakibꞌij e xaꞌwibꞌal, man keniman taj, xa ta ne jun utz laj jastaq kekwin chubꞌanik.
