< 1 John 1 >

1 That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we beheld, and our hands handled, concerning the Word of Life—
Ri kꞌo wi loq are majoꞌq katik ronojel ri jastaq, ri xqato, ri xqil rukꞌ ri qabꞌoqꞌoch, ri qas xqachap rukꞌ ri qaqꞌabꞌ, ri tzij ri kuya kꞌaslemal, are waꞌ ri kaqatzijoj chiꞌwe.
2 and the Life appeared, and we have seen, and testify, and declare to you the continuous Life, which was with the Father, and was revealed to us— (aiōnios g166)
We kꞌaslemal riꞌ xukꞌut ribꞌ chiqawach rumal waꞌ kaqatzijoj xuqujeꞌ kaqaqꞌalajisaj chiꞌwe ri jun alik kꞌaslemal ri ojer kꞌo rukꞌ ri Tataxel Dios. (aiōnios g166)
3 we declare to you that which we have seen and heard, that you also may have fellowship with us, and our fellowship [is] with the Father, and with His Son Jesus Christ;
Kaqatzijoj chiꞌwe ri xqilo xuqujeꞌ xqato rech kꞌo qariqoj ibꞌ iwukꞌ, xuqujeꞌ rukꞌ ri Tataxel Dios, rachiꞌl ri ukꞌojol Jesucristo.
4 and these things we write to you, that your joy may be full.
Kaqatzꞌibꞌaj we jastaq riꞌ chiꞌwe rech qas katzꞌaqat ri qakiꞌkotemal.
5 And this is the message that we have heard from Him, and announce to you, that God is light, and darkness is not in Him at all;
Are waꞌ ri tzij ri xubꞌij ri Cristo chaqe, rumal riꞌ kaqatzijoj chiꞌwe: Ri Dios are tunal, maj qꞌequꞌmal rukꞌ Areꞌ.
6 if we may say, “We have fellowship with Him,” and may walk in the darkness—we lie, and do not [speak] the truth;
We kaqabꞌij chi kꞌo qariqoj ibꞌ rukꞌ ri Cristo kꞌa te riꞌ xaq jeꞌ uj kꞌo pa ri qꞌequꞌmal, xaq uj bꞌanal taq tzij riꞌ, man tajin ta kaqanimaj ri Dios.
7 and if we may walk in the light, as He is in the light—we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of His Son Jesus Christ cleanses us from every sin;
We uj kꞌo pa ri tunal, jacha ri Cristo kꞌo pa ri tunal, kꞌo qariqoj ibꞌ riꞌ kukꞌ nikꞌaj chik, xuqujeꞌ ri ukikꞌel ri Cristo, ukꞌojol ri Dios are kujchꞌajchꞌobꞌen che ronojel uwach mak.
8 if we may say, “We have no sin,” we lead ourselves astray, and the truth is not in us;
We kaqabꞌij chi maj qamak, uj bꞌanal taq tzij riꞌ, man uj kꞌo ta riꞌ pa ri qas tzij.
9 if we may confess our sins, He is steadfast and righteous that He may forgive us the sins, and may cleanse us from every unrighteousness;
We kaqatzujuj qibꞌ che ri qamak, ri Dios ri sibꞌalaj sukꞌ ri kubꞌano ri kubꞌij, kujukuy na xuqujeꞌ kujuchꞌajchꞌobꞌej na che ronojel uwach etzelal.
10 if we may say, “We have not sinned,” we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.
We kaqabꞌij chi man uj makuninaq taj, tajin kaqabꞌij riꞌ chi ri Dios xaq bꞌanal tzij, xuqujeꞌ man kꞌo ta riꞌ ri utzij pa qanimaꞌ.
