< 2 Corinthians 2 >
1 For I determined this for myself, that I would not come to you again in sorrow.
Rumal riꞌ xinchomaj chi man kixeꞌnsolij ta chik junmul rukꞌ bꞌis.
2 For if I make you sorry, then who will make me glad but he who is made sorry by me?
Rumal chi we in kinyakow ibꞌis, ¿jachin kꞌu riꞌ ri kayoꞌw kiꞌkotemal chwe we man are ri winaq ri xinyak kibꞌis?
3 And I wrote this very thing, so that, when I came, I would not have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy would be shared by all of you.
Xintzꞌibꞌaj we riꞌ chiꞌwe, rech are kinopanik man kayak ta nubꞌis kumal ri keyakow nukiꞌkotemal. Kuꞌl na kꞌuꞌx chi are nukiꞌkotemal ri ikiꞌkotemal.
4 For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote to you with many tears, not that you should be made sorry, but that you might know the love that I have so abundantly for you.
Xintzꞌibꞌaj we riꞌ chiꞌwe rukꞌ bꞌis xuqujeꞌ rukꞌ kꞌaxkꞌolal pa ri wanimaꞌ, xuqujeꞌ rukꞌ oqꞌej, man xa ta kinyak ibꞌis, xane are kinkꞌut chiꞌwach ri unimal ri loqꞌanik.
5 But if any has caused sorrow, he has caused sorrow, not to me, but in part (that I not press too heavily) to you all.
We kꞌo jun uyakom nubꞌis, man xwi ta xuyak nubꞌis in, xane xuyak ibꞌis iwonojel rumal ri ubꞌanom (qas man xa ta kinya uwiꞌ).
6 Sufficient to such a one is this punishment which was inflicted by the many;
Ri winaq ri jewaꞌ kubꞌano, xtaqiꞌ che ri qꞌatoj tzij ri xkibꞌan qonojel ri winaq puꞌwiꞌ.
7 so that on the contrary you should rather forgive him and comfort him, lest by any means such a one should be swallowed up with his excessive sorrow.
Ri ix kꞌut chikuyu umak xuqujeꞌ chikubꞌisaj ukꞌuꞌx rech man kukamisaj ta ribꞌ pa ri bꞌis.
8 Therefore I urge you to confirm your love toward him.
Rumal riꞌ kinta chiꞌwe qas chikꞌutu cho we winaq riꞌ chi qas kiloqꞌaj.
9 For to this end I also wrote, that I might know the proof of you, whether you are obedient in all things.
Are waꞌ uta we wuj xintzꞌibꞌaj chiꞌwe, rech jeriꞌ kinwilo we qas kixnimanik che ronojel ri kinbꞌij chiꞌwe.
10 Now I also forgive whomever you forgive anything. For if indeed I have forgiven anything, I have forgiven that one for your sakes in the presence of Messiah,
Ri kikuy ix umak, kinkuy xuqujeꞌ in. Qas tzij we kꞌo jun jastaq ri nukuyum in, jewaꞌ nubꞌanom rumal qas cho ri Dios, xintoqꞌobꞌisaj iwach.
11 that no advantage may be gained over us by Satan; for we are not ignorant of his schemes.
Rech ri Itzel man kachꞌeken taj piꞌwiꞌ. Rumal cher qetaꞌm jas ri kubꞌan che ri subꞌunik.
12 Now when I came to Troas for the Good News of Messiah, and when a door was opened to me in the Lord,
Are xinopan chutzijoxik ri utz laj taq tzij pa ri tinimit Troas, xinwilo chi ri Dios xuya bꞌe chwe kintzijoj ri ubꞌiꞌ chike e kꞌi winaq.
13 I had no relief for my spirit, because I did not find Titus, my brother, but taking my leave of them, I went out into Macedonia.
Pune jeriꞌ, man utz taj xinnaꞌo rumal man xinriq ta ri wachalal Tito, rumal riꞌ xinel bꞌik chilaꞌ kꞌa te riꞌ xineꞌ pa Macedonia.
14 Now thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Messiah, and reveals through us the sweet aroma of his knowledge in every place.
Xa tyox che ri Dios ri kubꞌan chaqe chi uj chꞌekenelabꞌ, xuqujeꞌ xa rumal qe uj, kutukij bꞌik ri ukꞌokꞌal ri etaꞌmanik pa ronojel kꞌolibꞌal.
15 For we are a sweet aroma of Messiah to God, in those who are saved, and in those who perish;
Rumal cher uj riꞌ ri uj kꞌokꞌ laj ruxlabꞌ ri Cristo ri uj kꞌo chikixoꞌl ri winaq ri kekolotajik xuqujeꞌ ri kasach kiwach.
16 to the one a stench from death to death; to the other a sweet aroma from life to life. Who is sufficient for these things?
Qas tzij uj ruxlabꞌ kamikal chike ri kekamik, xuqujeꞌ uj ruxlabꞌ kꞌaslemal chike ri kꞌo kikꞌaslemal ¿jachin qas kakwin chubꞌanik we jastaq riꞌ?
17 For we are not, like so many, peddling the word of God. But as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God, we speak in Messiah.
Ri uj man uj junam ta kukꞌ ri winaq ri kakikꞌayij ri utzij ri Dios. Xane kaqatzijoj utzij ri Dios qas rukꞌ ronojel qanimaꞌ xuqujeꞌ pa Dios xuqujeꞌ cho ri Dios rumal cher xa jun qaꞌnik rukꞌ ri Cristo.
