Philemon 1
1 Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timotheus the brother, to Philemon our beloved and fellow-worker,
Ri Pablo, tzꞌapil pa cheꞌ rumal ri Cristo Jesús, xuqujeꞌ ri alaxik Timoteo, che ri loqꞌalaj Filemón, toꞌl qe,
2 and Apphia the beloved, and Archippus our fellow-soldier, and the assembly in your house:
xuqujeꞌ che ri alaxik Apia, ri alaxik Arquipo, e qachiꞌl pa ri chꞌoꞌj, xuqujeꞌ ri komontyox ri kakimulij kibꞌ cho awachoch:
3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!
Toqꞌobꞌ, jaꞌmaril rech ri qaDios Tataxel xuqujeꞌ rech ri Ajawxel Jesucristo chiꞌwe.
4 I give thanks to my God, always making mention of you in my prayers,
Kintyoxin che ri Dios, amaqꞌel katnaꞌtaj chwe pa ri nuchꞌawem.
5 hearing of your love and faith that you have to the Lord Jesus and toward all the holy ones,
Rumal cher nutom ri aloqꞌanik xuqujeꞌ ri akojobꞌal ri kꞌo che ri Ajawxel Jesús, xuqujeꞌ kukꞌ konojel ri tyoxalaj taq winaq.
6 that the fellowship of your faith may become working in the full knowledge of every good thing that [is] in you toward Christ Jesus;
Kinta che ri Dios chi ri riqoj ibꞌ ri kakꞌiy pa ri akojobꞌal, qas kꞌo kutayij pa Cristo, rumal rech ri etaꞌmanik rech ri utzilal, ri qetaꞌmam junam awukꞌ.
7 for we have much joy and comfort in your love, because the yearnings of the holy ones have been refreshed through you, brother.
Rumal cher kꞌo qakiꞌkotemal xuqujeꞌ kuꞌlibꞌal qakꞌuꞌx pa ri aloqꞌanik, rumal cher ri tyoxalaj taq winaq xkikꞌamawaꞌj kichuqꞌabꞌ rumal awe.
8 For this reason, having in Christ much boldness to command you that which is fit—
Rumal riꞌ, pune pa Cristo kinkwinik kintaqan paꞌwiꞌ, rech kabꞌan ri rajawaxik kabꞌano,
9 because of the love I rather plead, being such a one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ;
xa kinta toqꞌobꞌ chawe pa ri loqꞌanik. In in Pablo, in nima winaq chik, xuqujeꞌ in tzꞌapital pa cheꞌ rumal rech ri Cristo Jesús,
10 I beg you concerning my child—whom I begot in my bonds—Onesimus,
kinta chawe puꞌwiꞌ ri nukꞌojol Onésimo, ri xux nukꞌojol are in tzꞌapital pa cheꞌ.
11 who once was to you unprofitable, and now is profitable to me and to you,
Ojer maj kutayij waꞌ chawe, kamik kꞌut kꞌo kutayij chawe at xuqujeꞌ chwe in.
12 whom I sent again to you—he who is my own heart,
Kintaq bꞌik rech katzalij awukꞌ, chakꞌamawaꞌj kꞌut, je ta ne tzi in kinopan awukꞌ.
13 whom I intended to retain to myself, that in your behalf he might minister to me in the bonds of the good news,
Are ta ne kawaj in kakanaj wukꞌ che akꞌaxel rech kinupatanij pa we cheꞌ ri in tzꞌapital wi rumal re ri utz laj tzij.
14 but apart from your mind I willed to do nothing, so that your good deed may not be as of necessity, but of willingness,
Man xwaj ta kꞌut xinbꞌan jun jastaq ri man awetaꞌm taj, rech man kabꞌantaj rumal cher in kinbꞌinik xane are ri qas kape pa awanimaꞌ.
15 for perhaps because of this he departed for an hour, that you may have him continuously, (aiōnios g166)
Wine rumal waꞌ xel loq awukꞌ najtir, rech kamik kakꞌamawaꞌj amaqꞌel. (aiōnios g166)
16 no longer as a servant, but above a servant—a beloved brother, especially to me, and how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the LORD!
Man kakꞌamawaꞌj taj jacha jun patanil awe, xane chakꞌamawaꞌj jeꞌ jas jun loqꞌalaj alaxik, sibꞌalaj nim ubꞌanik chinuwach in, nim ubꞌanik chawach at rumal cher jun winaq xuqujeꞌ jun alaxik pa ri Ajawxel.
17 If, then, you have fellowship with me, receive him as me,
Xaq jeriꞌ, we in awachiꞌl, chakꞌamawaꞌj tzi jacha ta ne ri in.
18 and if he did hurt to you, or owes anything, charge this to me;
We ubꞌanom jun kꞌax chawe o kꞌo ukꞌas awukꞌ, chaya pa ri nukwenta.
19 I, Paul, wrote with my hand, I will repay; besides, that I may not say that you also owe to me yourself.
In in Pablo, rukꞌ ri nuqꞌabꞌ kintzꞌibꞌaj: Kintoj na chawe, naꞌtaj chawe chi kꞌo akꞌas wukꞌ che ri katux kamik.
20 Yes, brother, may I have profit of you in the LORD; refresh my yearnings in the LORD;
Jeꞌ wachalal, chikinkꞌamawaꞌj jun toqꞌobꞌ chawe at. Chaya uchuqꞌabꞌ ri wanimaꞌ pa Cristo.
21 I wrote to you having been confident in your obedience, having known that you will also do above what I may say;
Xintzꞌibꞌaj bꞌi waꞌ chawe, kuꞌl na kꞌuꞌx chi katnimanik, xuqujeꞌ wetaꞌm chi kꞌo na ri kabꞌano choch ri kinta chawe.
22 and at the same time also prepare for me a lodging, for I hope that through your prayers I will be granted to you.
Xuqujeꞌ chasukꞌumaj apanoq ri ja ri kineꞌkꞌol wi, rumal cher kuꞌl na kꞌuꞌx chirij ri Dios kinopan chi na iwukꞌ, rumal ri ichꞌawem.
23 Epaphras greets you (my fellow-captive in Christ Jesus),
Kakitaq rutzil awach ri Epafras, wachiꞌl pa Cristo Jesús, uj kꞌo pa cheꞌ,
24 Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lucas, my fellow-workmen!
xuqujeꞌ ri Marcos, ri Aristarco, ri Demas, ri Lucas, e toꞌl taq we.
25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [is] with your spirit! Amen.
Are ri utoqꞌobꞌ ri Ajawxel Jesucristo, kakanaj kan pa awanimaꞌ. Jeriꞌ.
