< Acts 11 >

1 And the apostles and the brothers who are in Judea heard that the nations also received the word of God,
Ri e taqoꞌn xuqujeꞌ ri kojonelabꞌ ri e kꞌo pa Judea are xkito chi ri winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj xekojon che ri utzij ri Dios.
2 and when Peter came up to Jerusalem, those of circumcision were contending with him,
Xkibꞌij che ri Pedro are xtzalij pa ri tinimit Jerusalén chi man utz taj ri xubꞌano.
3 saying, “You went in to uncircumcised men, and ate with them!”
Xatok pa kachoch ri man aꞌj Israel taj xuqujeꞌ xatwaꞌ kukꞌ, xecha che.
4 And Peter having begun, set [it] forth to them in order, saying,
Ri Pedro kꞌut xutzijoj chike jas ri xkꞌulmatajik.
5 “I was in the city of Joppa praying, and I saw in a trance a vision, a certain vessel coming down, as a great sheet by four corners being let down out of Heaven, and it came to me;
Jewaꞌ xubꞌij: In kꞌo pa ri tinimit Jope, tajin kinbꞌan chꞌawem. Xaq kꞌa teꞌ xinsachiꞌk, xkꞌut kꞌu chinuwach jun atzꞌyaq ri tajin kaqaj loq cho ri kaj chaptal ri kajibꞌ utzaꞌm xqaj loq jawjeꞌ ri in kꞌo wi.
6 at which having looked steadfastly, I was considering, and I saw the four-footed beasts of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the birds of the sky;
Are xinkaꞌyej jas kꞌo chupam, xinwil ronojel kiwach aꞌwaj, aꞌwaj kakijururej kibꞌ cho ri uwachulew, awaj kajibꞌ kichakalibꞌal xuqujeꞌ aꞌwaj ri kerapin cho ri kaj.
7 and I heard a voice saying to me, Having risen, Peter, slay and eat;
Xinta kꞌu jun chꞌabꞌal kubꞌij: “Pedro chatwaꞌjiloq chaꞌtijaꞌ.”
8 and I said, Not so, Lord, because anything common or unclean has at no time entered into my mouth;
In xinbꞌij: “Tat, man nutijom ta wi jun chꞌulujalaj jastaq rumal cher ri qataqanik man kuya ta bꞌe chaqe.”
9 and a voice answered me a second time out of Heaven, What God cleansed, you do not declare common.
Xchꞌaw chi junmul ri chꞌabꞌal ri xpe chikaj, xubꞌij: “Man kabꞌij taj chi man yaꞌtal taj katij ri uchꞌajchꞌobꞌem chi ri Dios.”
10 And this happened three times, and again was all drawn up to Heaven,
Oxmul xkꞌulmataj we kꞌutbꞌal riꞌ, kꞌa te riꞌ xpaqabꞌax chi ri manta pa ri kaj.
11 and behold, immediately, three men stood at the house in which I was, having been sent from Caesarea to me,
Qas che ri qꞌotaj riꞌ, oꞌxibꞌ achyabꞌ ri kipetik pa ri tinimit Cesarea xoꞌpan jawjeꞌ ri in kꞌo wi.
12 and the Spirit said to me to go with them, doubting nothing, and these six brothers also went with me, and we entered into the house of the man,
Ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel xubꞌij chwe chi kineꞌ kukꞌ xuqujeꞌ chi man kakꞌaxir ta wanimaꞌ kineꞌ kukꞌ ri winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj. We waqibꞌ alaxik ri e kꞌo chanim xebꞌe wukꞌ are xujopan cho rachoch ri achi ri xtaqan che qasikꞌixik.
13 he also declared to us how he saw the messenger standing in his house, and saying to him, Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, who is surnamed Peter,
Ri achi xuchapleꞌj utzijoxik chaqe chi jun ángel xukꞌut ribꞌ choch pa ri rachoch xubꞌij che: “Chaꞌtaqa bꞌik e taqoꞌn pa ri tinimit Jope rech keꞌkisikꞌij loq jun achi ubꞌiꞌ Simón Pedro.”
14 who will speak sayings by which you will be saved, you and all your house.
Ri achi riꞌ are kabꞌin chawe jas kabꞌano rech katkolotajik xuqujeꞌ kekolotaj ri winaq ri e kꞌo pa ri awachoch.
15 And in my beginning to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them, even as also on us in the beginning,
Are xinchapleꞌj tzijonem kukꞌ, ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel xqaj pa kiwiꞌ jetaq ri xubꞌan qukꞌ uj nabꞌe.
16 and I remembered the saying of the LORD, how He said, John indeed immersed in water, but you will be immersed in the Holy Spirit;
Xnaꞌtaj kꞌu chwe are xubꞌij ri Ajawxel Jesús: “Ri Juan xubꞌan qasanaꞌ rukꞌ jaꞌ, ri ix kꞌut kabꞌan na iqasanaꞌ rukꞌ ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel.”
17 if then God gave to them the equal gift as also to us, having believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, I—how was I able to withstand God?”
We xuya ri Dios ri sipanik riꞌ chike ri winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj jetaq ri xuya chaqe uj, ¿in jachin in chuqꞌatexik ri Dios?
18 And they, having heard these things, were silent, and were glorifying God, saying, “Then, indeed, God also gave conversion to life to the nations.”
Are xkita we tzij riꞌ, konojel xkiqꞌil kibꞌ che ubꞌixik tzij che ri Pedro, xkichapleꞌj uqꞌijilaꞌxik ri Dios. Xkibꞌij: Kaqilo chi ri Dios are xraj chi ri winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj kakikꞌex kikꞌuꞌx rech kakikꞌamawaꞌj jun alik kꞌaslemal.
19 Those, indeed, therefore, having been scattered abroad, from the tribulation that came after Stephen, went through to Phoenicia, and Cyprus, and Antioch, speaking the word to none except to Jews only;
Jujun chike ri kojonelabꞌ ri xaꞌnimaj bꞌik are xchapleꞌtaj kitzukuxik che riꞌ are xkamisax ri Esteban, xebꞌe pa taq ri tinimit rech Fenicia, kꞌo xebꞌe Chipre, kꞌo xebꞌe Antioquía rech Siria. Xkitzijoj ri utzij ri Dios xwi chike ri winaq aꞌj Israel.
20 and there were certain of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who having entered into Antioch, were speaking to the Hellenists, proclaiming good news—the Lord Jesus,
Kꞌo kꞌu jujun kojonelabꞌ ri aꞌj Chipre xuqujeꞌ aꞌj Cirene are xoꞌpan pa Antioquía xkichapleꞌj utzijoxik ri Ajawxel Jesús chike ri man aꞌj Israel taj.
21 and the hand of the LORD was with them, a great number also, having believed, turned to the LORD.
Ri ukwinem ri Ajawxel kꞌo kukꞌ, e kꞌi kꞌu winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj xekojon che ri Ajawxel.
22 And the account was heard in the ears of the assembly that [is] in Jerusalem concerning them, and they sent forth Barnabas to go through to Antioch,
Are xketaꞌmaj ri komontyox ri kꞌo pa ri tinimit Jerusalén, ri xkꞌulmatajik xkitaq bꞌik ri Bernabé pa ri tinimit Antioquía.
23 who, having come, and having seen the grace of God, was glad, and was exhorting all with purpose of heart to cleave to the LORD,
Ri Bernabé are xopanik, xnoj ri ranimaꞌ che kiꞌkotemal rumal cher xril ri utewechiꞌbꞌal ri Dios, xuꞌtaqchiꞌj ri kojonelabꞌ rech kajeqiꞌ kanimaꞌ chirij ri Ajawxel.
24 because he was a good man, and full of the Holy Spirit, and of faith, and a great multitude was added to the LORD.
Ri Bernabé jun utz laj achi, nojinaq che ri Uxlabꞌixel, qas ko kꞌo pa ri ukojobꞌal. Sibꞌalaj e kꞌi winaq kꞌut xekojon che ri Ajawxel.
25 And Barnabas went forth to Tarsus, to seek for Saul,
Are kꞌu ri Bernabé xeꞌ pa ri tinimit Tarso, xuꞌtzukuj ri Saulo.
26 and having found him, he brought him to Antioch, and it came to pass that they assembled together a whole year in the assembly, and taught a great multitude, and the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.
Are xuriqo, xukꞌam bꞌik pa ri tinimit Antioquía. Jun junabꞌ xekanaj kan kikobꞌchal pa jun komontyox xkiya kꞌutuꞌn chike e kꞌi winaq. (Pa ri tinimit Antioquía xbꞌix wi nabꞌe mul Cristianos chike ri kojonelabꞌ).
27 And in those days there came from Jerusalem prophets to Antioch,
Pa taq ri qꞌij riꞌ e kꞌo jujun qꞌalajisal taq rech ri utzij ri Dios xeꞌl bꞌik pa ri tinimit Jerusalén, xebꞌe pa ri tinimit Antioquía.
28 and one of them, by name Agabus, having stood up, signified through the Spirit a great scarcity is about to be throughout all the world—which also came to pass in the time of Claudius Caesar—
Jun chike ubꞌiꞌ Agabo, pa jun chike ri kimulin ibꞌ xtakꞌiꞌk xubꞌij chi kape na jun nimalaj numik pa ronojel ri tinimit Roma. Xkꞌulmataj kꞌu we riꞌ are kꞌo ri Claudio che qꞌatal tzij.
29 and the disciples, according as anyone was prospering, determined each of them to send for ministry to the brothers dwelling in Judea,
Rumal riꞌ, ri kojonelabꞌ aꞌj Antioquía xkitaq kꞌu bꞌik jun tobꞌanik chike ri alaxik aꞌj Judea, chi kijujunal xkiya ri xekwin chuyaꞌik.
30 which also they did, having sent to the elders by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.
Xkiterebꞌa kꞌu bꞌik ri kisipanik kukꞌ ri Bernabé rachiꞌl ri Saulo, rech kakiya apanoq chike ri kꞌamal taq bꞌe rech ri komontyox ri kꞌo pa ri tinimit Jerusalén.
