< 2 Timothy 2 >

1 You therefore, my child, be strengthened in the grace that is in Messiah Yeshua.
Xaq jeriꞌ nukꞌojol, chakꞌamawaꞌj achuqꞌabꞌ rumal ri toqꞌobꞌ ri kꞌo qukꞌ pa Cristo.
2 The things which you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit the same to faithful people, who will be able to teach others also.
Ri atom, nubꞌim chkiwach e kꞌi winaq, chaꞌtaqchiꞌj ri kojonelabꞌ e kuꞌlibꞌal taq kuꞌx, xuqujeꞌ qas kꞌo ketaꞌmabꞌal chukꞌutik chkiwach nikꞌaj winaq chik.
3 You therefore must share in hardship, as a good soldier of Messiah Yeshua.
Chatzijoj ri kꞌax ri qariqom, jeꞌ jas jun ajchꞌoꞌj chajil tinimit, rech ri Cristo.
4 No soldier on duty entangles himself in the affairs of life, that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier.
Maj jun ajchꞌoꞌj chajil tinimit kaqaj choch ri kꞌamal ubꞌe, we are keꞌ ukꞌuꞌx rukꞌ ri jastaq rech ri leꞌaj ri kel wi.
5 Also, if anyone competes in athletics, he is not crowned unless he has competed by the rules.
Je xuqujeꞌ man kꞌo ta jun winaq ri kok pa jun tijoj anim, kukꞌamawaꞌj ri korona we man kunimaj ri kubꞌij ri taqanik rech ri etzꞌanem.
6 The farmers who labor must be the first to get a share of the crops.
Ri ajchak ri sibꞌalaj kachakunik yaꞌtal bꞌe che kukꞌamawaꞌj rech nabꞌe, ri yakoj.
7 Consider what I say, for the Lord will give you understanding in all things.
Qas chachomaj rij we kinbꞌij chawe, ri Ajawxel kꞌut katutoꞌ chuchꞌobꞌik waꞌ we riꞌ.
8 Remember Yeshua the Messiah, risen from the dead, a descendant of David, according to my Good News,
Man kattaniꞌ ta che unaꞌtaxik ri Jesucristo, rijaꞌl ri David, ri xwaꞌjilisax chikixoꞌl ri kaminaqibꞌ. Are waꞌ ri utz laj taq tzij.
9 in which I suffer hardship to the point of chains as a criminal. But God's word is not chained.
Rumal rech in jatꞌitalik jacha jun bꞌanal kꞌax. Ri utzij ri Dios kꞌut man jatꞌital taj.
10 Therefore I endure all things for the chosen ones' sake, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Messiah Yeshua with everlasting glory. (aiōnios g166)
Kinkochꞌ kꞌu ronojel ri qꞌoxomal kumal ke ri e chaꞌtalik. Rech xuqujeꞌ koꞌpan pa ri koltajem ri kajuluwik ri maj ukꞌisik, ri yaꞌtal chaqe pa Cristo. (aiōnios g166)
11 This saying is faithful: "For if we died with him, we will also live with him.
Qas tzij wi we tzij riꞌ: We kujkam rukꞌ ri Cristo, kujkꞌasiꞌ xuqujeꞌ na rukꞌ.
12 If we endure, we will also reign with him. If we deny him, he also will deny us.
We kaqachuqꞌabꞌej, kujtaqan kꞌu na rukꞌ, we kaqabꞌij chi man qetaꞌm ta uwach Areꞌ xuqujeꞌ kubꞌij na chi man retaꞌm ta qawach.
13 If we are faithless, he remains faithful, for he cannot deny himself."
We man kujjeqiꞌ pa ri kaqabꞌij, Areꞌ kajeqiꞌ wi pa ri utzij, man kakwin taj kukꞌekꞌej ribꞌ.
14 Remind them of these things, charging them in the presence of God, not to wrangle about words, to no profit, to the subverting of those who hear.
Man kattaniꞌ ta che unaꞌtaxik we riꞌ chike ri kojonelabꞌ. Chabꞌij chike man kakiya ta bꞌe che taq ri tzijitzatem ri maj kutayij, rumal xaq xwi kuꞌtukij ri ketowik.
15 Do your best to present yourself approved by God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, properly handling the word of truth.
Chabꞌana ri achuqꞌabꞌ, rech katqaj cho ri Dios, jeꞌ jas jun ajchak ri maj kukꞌixibꞌej, ri kakwinik sukꞌ kuqꞌaxaj ri tzij rech qas tzij.
16 But shun empty chatter, for they will proceed further in ungodliness,
Chaqꞌila awibꞌ chubꞌixik kꞌi taq tzij ri man tyoxalaj taq tzij taj, rumal ri jewaꞌ kakibꞌano, tajin kenajtin che ri utz laj bꞌe,
17 and their word will consume like gangrene, of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;
xuqujeꞌ ri itzel taq kikꞌutuꞌn tajin kajabꞌunik jer kꞌo jun yabꞌil. Chikixoꞌl we winaq riꞌ e kꞌo ri Himeneo rachiꞌl ri Fileto,
18 who have erred concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection is already past, and overthrowing the faith of some.
aꞌre waꞌ ri kiqꞌatom kibꞌ che ri qas tzij. Tajin kakibꞌij chi xkꞌulmataj ri kꞌastajibꞌal kiwach ri kaminaqibꞌ, kakimenkꞌetij kꞌu ri kojobꞌal kech e jujun.
19 However God's firm foundation stands, having this seal, "The Lord knows those who are his," and, "Let every one who names the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness."
Pune jewaꞌ kakꞌulmatajik, ri utakꞌalibꞌal ri Dios sibꞌalaj ko kꞌolik, rumal cher kojtal retal rukꞌ we tzꞌibꞌatalik riꞌ: Retaꞌm ri Ajawxel konojel ri e rech. We jun chik riꞌ kubꞌij: Ri winaq ri kuqꞌijilaꞌj ri ubꞌiꞌ ri Ajawxel, chuqꞌila ribꞌ che ri mak.
20 Now in a large house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of clay. Some are for honor, and some for dishonor.
Pa jun nimalaj ja man xwi ta kꞌo qumubꞌal ri bꞌantal che qꞌana pwaq, xuqujeꞌ saqa pwaq, xane kꞌo xuqujeꞌ bꞌantal che, cheꞌ xuqujeꞌ kꞌo bꞌantal che ulew, kꞌo are kupatanij che ri jastaq ri nim uqꞌij, kꞌo xuqujeꞌ are kakoj che ri jastaq ri man nim ta uqꞌij.
21 If anyone therefore purges himself from these, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified, and suitable for the master's use, prepared for every good work.
We kꞌu kꞌo jun kukꞌaslebꞌej jun chꞌajchꞌoj laj kꞌaslemal, kuxik jun jeꞌl laj kꞌolibꞌal, tyoxirisatalik, kꞌo kutayij che ri Ajawxel, xuqujeꞌ kakwinik kubꞌan utz laj taq chak.
22 Flee from youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
Chatanimajok choch ri rayinik rech alkꞌaꞌlal, are chabꞌana achuqꞌabꞌ chatereneꞌj ri sukꞌal, ri kojobꞌal, ri loqꞌanik, xuqujeꞌ ri jaꞌmaril, kukꞌ ri kakinaꞌtaj ri ubꞌiꞌ ri Ajawxel rukꞌ jun chꞌajchꞌoj laj animaꞌaj.
23 But refuse foolish and ignorant questionings, knowing that they generate strife.
Man kanim ta awibꞌ pa taq tzijonem ri maj kutayij, awetaꞌm chi chꞌoꞌj kakꞌisbꞌen rech ronojel.
24 The Lord's servant must not quarrel, but be gentle towards all, able to teach, patient,
Xuqujeꞌ maj jun patanil rech ri Ajawxel ri xaq chꞌoꞌj karilij, xane rajawaxik utz kanoꞌjin kukꞌ konojel, kakwinik kuya kꞌutuꞌn, man aninaq taj kayojtajik.
25 in gentleness correcting those who oppose him: perhaps God may give them repentance leading to a full knowledge of the truth,
Xaq jeriꞌ rukꞌ mochꞌochꞌem, chaꞌsukꞌumaj ri e kꞌulel, kuꞌl akꞌuꞌx che ri Dios rech kubꞌan chike chi kakikꞌex kikꞌuꞌx, rech kaketaꞌmaj ri qas tzij.
26 and they may recover themselves out of the devil's snare, having been taken captive by him to his will.
Rech kekꞌastajik xuqujeꞌ man keqaj ta pa ri kꞌaꞌmabꞌal jawjeꞌ ri kuꞌtzꞌapij wi ri Itzel, rech kakibꞌan ri urayibꞌal ukꞌuꞌx.
