< Matthew 14 >

1 At that time, Herod the tetrarch heard the report concerning Yeshua,
Pa taq ri qꞌij riꞌ, ri Herodes are taqanel pa Galilea. Are xretaꞌmaj ri kakitzijoj ri winaq che ri Jesús
2 and said to his servants, "This is John the Immerser. He is risen from the dead. That is why these powers work in him."
xubꞌij chike ri e patanil rech: Qas tzij kinbꞌij chiꞌwe, ri Jesús are Juan Bꞌanal qasanaꞌ, xa xkꞌastaj loq. Rumal riꞌ kakwinik kubꞌan mayijabꞌal taq jastaq.
3 For Herod had arrested John, and bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife.
Ri Herodes are xkojow ri Juan pa cheꞌ rumal cher xyojtajik rumal cher xbꞌix che: Man utz taj ri xabꞌano, xaweleqꞌaj ri Herodías rixoqil ri awachalal, Felipe, xatkꞌuliꞌ rukꞌ.
4 For John said to him, "It is not lawful for you to have her."
Ri Juan kꞌi mul xubꞌij che: Man kuya ta bꞌe ri taqanik chawe kakꞌam ri Herodías che awixoqil.
5 And though he wanted to kill him, he feared the crowd because they regarded him as a prophet.
Ri Herodes are xraj kukamisaj ri Juan, man xkwin ta kꞌut rumal cher kuxiꞌj ribꞌ chikiwach ri winaq, rumal cher ri winaq ketaꞌm chi ri Juan jun qꞌalajisal utzij ri Dios.
6 But when Herod's birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced among them and pleased Herod.
Are xtzaꞌqat chik jun ujunabꞌ ri Herodes, xubꞌan jun nimaqꞌij, ri ral ali ri Herodías xojow chikiwach konojel ri winaq ri e sikꞌitalik.
7 Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatever she should ask.
Sibꞌalaj xqaj choch ri Herodes ri xojowem ri xubꞌan ri ali, rumal riꞌ xubꞌij che ri ali chi kuya che xapakux ri karaj.
8 And she, being prompted by her mother, said, "Give me here on a platter the head of John the Immerser."
Ri Herodías ri unan ri ali are xutabꞌej re we riꞌ, xukoj ukꞌuꞌx ri ral rech kuta che ri Herodes chi kaya loq pa jun palaꞌt ri ujolom ri Juan Bꞌanal qasanaꞌ.
9 And the king was grieved, but for the sake of his oaths, and of those who sat at the table with him, he commanded it to be given,
Sibꞌalaj xbꞌison ri Herodes are xuta ri xbꞌix che, xa kꞌu rumal cher xutzuj che ri ali, xapakux ri kata che. Man xraj ta ukꞌuꞌx mat xtakꞌiꞌ pa ri utzij chikiwach ri e winaq ri e sikꞌital pa ri nimaqꞌij. Xaq jeriꞌ maj chi xkwinik xubꞌano, xuꞌtaq ri e patanil rech chuyaꞌik ri xutoqꞌij ri ali.
10 and he sent and beheaded John in the prison.
Ri e patanil rech ri Herodes xebꞌe pa ri cheꞌ, xeꞌkikutij loq ri ujolom ri Juan.
11 And his head was brought on a platter, and given to the young woman: and she brought it to her mother.
Xkiya pa jun palaꞌt, xeꞌkiya che ri ali. Ri ali xuꞌya che ri unan.
12 Then his talmidim came, and took the dead body, and buried him; and they went and told Yeshua.
Ri utijoxelabꞌ ri Juan xeꞌkikꞌama loq ri utyoꞌjal ri kajtij Juan, xeꞌkimuqu kanoq. Kꞌa te riꞌ, xeꞌkitzijoj che ri Jesús ri xkꞌulmatajik.
13 Now when Yeshua heard this, he withdrew from there in a boat, to a secluded place to be alone. When the crowds heard it, they followed him on foot from the cities.
Are xuta ri Jesús ri xbꞌan che ri Juan Bꞌanal qasanaꞌ, xaqꞌan bꞌik pa jun jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal puꞌwiꞌ ri jaꞌ, xeꞌ pa jun kꞌolibꞌal jawjeꞌ ri utz kakꞌojiꞌ wi utukel. Ri winaq ri keꞌl pa taq ri tinimit are xketaꞌmaj jawjeꞌ keꞌ wi ri Jesús, xkitereneꞌj bꞌik chikaqan.
14 And he went out, and he saw a large crowd, and he had compassion on them, and healed their sick.
Are xqaj ri Jesús pa ri jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal, xeꞌril sibꞌalaj e kꞌi winaq. Xel ukꞌuꞌx chike xuꞌkunaj konojel ri e yawabꞌibꞌ.
15 Now when evening had come, the talmidim came to him, saying, "This place is desolate, and the hour is already late. Send the crowds away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves food."
Are xuchapleꞌj uqajem ri qꞌij, ri e tijoxelabꞌ xeqet rukꞌ ri Jesús xkibꞌij che: Waꞌ we kꞌolibꞌal riꞌ naj kꞌo wi che ri tinimit, xuqujeꞌ tajin kaqaj le qꞌij. Bꞌij la chike ri winaq chebꞌoꞌj pa taq ri tinimit, jeꞌkiloqꞌo kiwa.
16 But Yeshua said to them, "They do not need to go away. You give them something to eat."
Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: Man rajawaxik ta laꞌ kebꞌek. Chiꞌtzuqu ix.
17 And they told him, "We only have here five loaves and two fish."
Ri tijoxelabꞌ xkibꞌij che: Xaq xwi kꞌo jobꞌ kaxlan wa qukꞌ xuqujeꞌ kebꞌ kar.
18 So he said, "Bring them here to me."
Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: Chikꞌama loq waral.
19 Then he commanded the crowds to sit down on the grass; and he took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, broke and gave the loaves to the talmidim, and the talmidim gave to the crowds.
Are xeꞌtaqtaj ri winaq rech ketꞌuyiꞌ cho ri saq, ri Jesús xukꞌam ri jobꞌ kaxlan wa rachiꞌl ri kebꞌ kar, xkaꞌy chikaj, xtyoxin che ri Dios, kꞌa te riꞌ xupirij ri kaxlan wa xuya chike ri utijoxelabꞌ, rech kakijach chike ri winaq.
20 And they all ate and were filled, and they took up twelve baskets full of that which remained left over from the broken pieces.
Konojel ri winaq xewaꞌik, sibꞌalaj xenojik, ri tijoxelabꞌ xkimulij ronojel ri chꞌaqaꞌp ri xkanajik, chi ronojel xkiriq na kabꞌlajuj chakach.
21 Now those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children.
Karaj e jobꞌ mil achyabꞌ ri xewaꞌik, man xaꞌjilax ta ri ixoqibꞌ rachiꞌl ri akꞌalabꞌ.
22 And immediately he made the talmidim get into the boat and to go ahead of him to the other side, while he sent the crowds away.
Kꞌa te riꞌ ri Jesús xubꞌij chike ri utijoxelabꞌ: Chixaqꞌan pa le jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal puꞌwiꞌ le jaꞌ, jix chꞌaqaꞌp che le cho. In kinkanaj na kanoq waral Keꞌnchꞌabꞌej na kan le winaq, kꞌa te kixeꞌn riqaꞌ.
23 And after he had sent the crowds away, he went up into the mountain by himself to pray. When evening had come, he was there alone.
Are xebꞌe konojel ri winaq, ri Jesús xpaqiꞌ utukel puꞌwiꞌ jun laj juyubꞌ, xubꞌan chꞌawem. Tajin kubꞌan chꞌawem are xok ri aqꞌabꞌ.
24 But the boat was now in the middle of the lake, battered by the waves, for the wind was against it.
Are kꞌu ri jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal puꞌwiꞌ ri jaꞌ naj chi kꞌo wi apanoq, kapuyiloꞌx rukꞌ chuqꞌabꞌ rumal ri kyaqiqꞌ xuqujeꞌ rumal ri jaꞌ.
25 And in the watch between three and six in the morning, he came to them, walking on the lake.
Kꞌa chaqꞌabꞌ na are xuchapleꞌj bꞌinem ri Jesús puꞌwiꞌ ri jaꞌ xqebꞌ chuxukut ri jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal puꞌwiꞌ ri jaꞌ.
26 And when the talmidim saw him walking on the lake, they were troubled, saying, "It's a ghost." and they screamed with fear.
Are xkil ri tijoxelabꞌ chi tajin kabꞌin puꞌwiꞌ ri jaꞌ, man xkichꞌobꞌ taj chi are Jesús, sibꞌalaj xkixiꞌj kibꞌ, xkiraq kichiꞌ xkibꞌij: ¡Jun subꞌunel!
27 But immediately Yeshua spoke to them, saying "Cheer up. It is I. Do not be afraid."
Ri Jesús aninaq xubꞌij chike: In waꞌ, kꞌol ichuqꞌabꞌ. Man kixiꞌj ta iwibꞌ.
28 Peter answered him and said, "Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the waters."
Ri Pedro xubꞌij che: Ajawxel, we qas lal, bꞌana la chwe chi kinbꞌin xuqujeꞌ in puꞌwiꞌ le ja, rech kineꞌ apanoq jawjeꞌ le kꞌo wi la.
29 He said, "Come." Peter stepped down from the boat, and walked on the water and went toward Yeshua.
Ri Jesús xubꞌij che: Chatan loq. Aninaq xqaj ri Pedro pa ri jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal puꞌwiꞌ ri jaꞌ, xbꞌin puꞌwiꞌ ri jaꞌ xeꞌ rukꞌ ri Jesús.
30 But when he saw the strong wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink, he yelled, saying, "Lord, save me."
Are xunaꞌ ri uchuqꞌabꞌ ri kyaqiqꞌ, xuxiꞌj ribꞌ. Xuchapleꞌj qajem xeꞌ ri jaꞌ, xubꞌij: ¡Wajaw, chintoꞌ la!
31 Immediately Yeshua stretched out his hand, took hold of him, and said to him, "You of little faith, why did you doubt?"
Ri Jesús xuchap apanoq ri Pedro, xubꞌij che: Pedro man qas ta kuꞌl akꞌuꞌx chwij, ¿jas che xubꞌan kebꞌ akꞌuꞌx?
32 When they got up into the boat, the wind ceased.
Are xepaqiꞌ kikobꞌchal pa ri jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal puꞌwiꞌ ri jaꞌ, xtaniꞌ ri kyaqiqꞌ.
33 Those who were in the boat worshiped him, saying, "You are truly the Son of God."
Konojel ri e kꞌo pa ri jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal, xexukiꞌ choch ri Jesús xkibꞌij che: Qas tzij wi, lal, lal Ralkꞌwaꞌl ri Dios.
34 When they had crossed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret.
Are xeqꞌax chꞌaqaꞌp che ri cho, xoꞌpan pa ri tinimit Genesaret.
35 When the people of that place recognized him, they sent into all that surrounding region, and brought to him all who were sick,
Ri winaq ri keꞌl pa ri tinimit are xkil uwach ri Jesús, xkitzijoj chike konojel ri winaq. Ri winaq xeꞌkikꞌam bꞌik ri e kiyawabꞌibꞌ jawjeꞌ ri kꞌo wi ri Jesús.
36 and they begged him that they might just touch the fringe of his garment. And all who touched it were healed.
Xkita toqꞌobꞌ che ri Jesús, rech kakichap ri uchiꞌ ri umanta. Ri e yawabꞌibꞌ ri xkichap ri uchiꞌ ri umanta ri Jesús, xuꞌtzirik.
