Matthew 22
1 Yeshua answered and spoke again in parables to them, saying,
Junmul chik ri Jesús xuchapleꞌj tzijonem kukꞌ ri winaq xukoj kꞌambꞌejabꞌal noꞌj, xubꞌij:
2 "The kingdom of heaven is like a certain king, who made a marriage feast for his son,
Ri ajawarem rech ri kaj kajunumataj rukꞌ ri jun taqanel ri xubꞌan jun nimaqꞌij rumal ri kꞌulanem rech ri ukꞌojol.
3 and sent out his servants to call those who were invited to the marriage feast, but they would not come.
Xuꞌtaq bꞌik ri e patanil taq rech chikisikꞌixik ri winaq ri e sikꞌital pa ri nimaqꞌij, we winaq riꞌ man xkaj taj xebꞌek pa ri nimaqꞌij.
4 Again he sent out other servants, saying, 'Tell those who are invited, "Look, I have made ready my dinner. My cattle and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready. Come to the marriage feast."'
Kꞌa te riꞌ xuꞌtaq chi bꞌik nikꞌaj e rajchakibꞌ xubꞌij chike: Chibꞌij chike ri e qasikꞌim chi xutzir le wa. Xinkamisaj ri e nuwakax, ronojel xutzirik. Chixpetoq pa we nimaqꞌij riꞌ.
5 But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his own farm, another to his merchandise,
Ri winaq man xkilij ta ri sikꞌinik ri xya chike xane ri jun xeꞌ pa ri uchak pa ri rulew, ri jun chik xeꞌ pa ri ukꞌay.
6 and the rest grabbed his servants, and treated them shamefully, and killed them.
Ri nikꞌaj chik xeꞌkichap ri ajchakibꞌ, xkibꞌan kꞌax chike kꞌa te riꞌ xeꞌkikamisaj.
7 The king was enraged, and sent his armies, destroyed those murderers, and burned their city.
Ri taqanel xyakataj royawal. Xuꞌtaq bꞌik ri e rajchꞌoꞌjabꞌ chikikamisaxik ri e kamisanelabꞌ xuqujeꞌ chuporoxik ri kitinimit.
8 "Then he said to his servants, 'The wedding is ready, but those who were invited weren't worthy.
Kꞌa te riꞌ xubꞌij chike ri e rajchakibꞌ: “Xutzir ri wa rech nimaqꞌij, are kꞌu ri xeꞌnsikꞌij man taqal ta chike xeꞌnsikꞌij.
9 Go therefore to the intersections of the highways, and as many as you may find, invite to the marriage feast.'
Jix pa taq ri uchꞌuꞌk ri bꞌe, jibꞌisikꞌij loq ri winaq ri kiꞌriqo.”
10 And those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all they found, both bad and good, and the wedding was filled with those reclining.
Jeriꞌ xebꞌe ri patanijelabꞌ pa taq ri bꞌe xebꞌe chikimulixik konojel ri winaq ri xeꞌkiriqo, e kꞌo utz taq winaq chike xuqujeꞌ e kꞌo itzel taq winaq, xaq jeriꞌ xnoj ri ja pa ri nimaqꞌij rech kꞌulanem.
11 But when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man who did not have on wedding clothing,
Are xok bꞌik ri nim taqanel chikilik ri e sikꞌital pa ri nimaqꞌij, xril jun achi ri man ukojom taj ri atzꞌyaq rech nimaqꞌij rech kꞌulanem.
12 and he said to him, 'Friend, how did you come in here not wearing wedding clothing?' He was speechless.
Xubꞌij che: “Ala, ¿jas che xatok la at waral man akojom taj awatzꞌyaq rech ri nimaqꞌij rech kꞌulanem?” Ri achi xaq xuta ri xbꞌix che.
13 Then the king said to the servants, 'Bind him hand and foot, and throw him into the outer darkness; there is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.'
Ri nim taqanel xubꞌij chike ri e patanil re: “Chijatꞌij le uqꞌabꞌ xuqujeꞌ le raqan, chiwesaj bꞌik, chikꞌyaqa bꞌik pa ri qꞌequꞌmal, chilaꞌ kꞌo wi na oqꞌej xuqujeꞌ qutꞌutꞌem ware.”
14 For many are called, but few chosen."
Jeriꞌ rumal sibꞌalaj e kꞌi e sikꞌitalik, xa kꞌu xaq e jujun e chaꞌtalik.
15 Then the Pharisees went and took counsel how they might entrap him in his talk.
Xebꞌe kꞌu ri fariseos, xkitzukuj jas kibꞌan che ukojik jun kꞌaꞌmabꞌal che ri Jesús rukꞌ ri kubꞌij chike.
16 They sent their talmidim to him, along with the Herodians, saying, "Teacher, we know that you are honest, and teach the way of God in truth, no matter whom you teach, for you are not partial to anyone.
Xeꞌkitaq bꞌik e jujun kitijoxelabꞌ e kachiꞌl ri herodianos, xeꞌkibꞌij che ri Jesús: Ajtij, qetaꞌm chi lal jun achi tzꞌaqat, xuqujeꞌ saq kabꞌan la chukꞌutik ri ubꞌe ri Dios man are ta kabꞌan la ri kakibꞌij ri winaq, rumal cher man are ta kil la ri kekaꞌy ri winaq.
17 Tell us therefore, what do you think? Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?"
Bꞌij bꞌa la chaqe: ¿La taqalik kaqatoj ri alkabal che ri César ri taqanel pa Roma o man taqal taj?
18 But Yeshua perceived their wickedness, and said, "Why do you test me, you hypocrites?
Ri Jesús retaꞌm ri itzel taq kichomanik rumal riꞌ xubꞌij chike: Kawach taq winaq, ¿jas che kiwaj kikoj kꞌaꞌmabꞌal pa ri nubꞌe?
19 Show me the tax money." They brought to him a denarius.
Chikꞌutumpe jun pwaq tojbꞌal rech ri alkabal. Ri winaq xkikꞌut jun pwaq choch.
20 He asked them, "Whose is this image and inscription?"
Ri Jesús xuta chike: ¿Jachin ajchoqꞌe we palajaj xuqujeꞌ we tzꞌibꞌ riꞌ?
21 They said to him, "Caesar's." Then he said to them, "Give therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's."
Ri winaq xkibꞌij: Rech ri César. Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: Chiya che ri César ri rech ri César, xuqujeꞌ chiya che ri Dios ri rech ri Dios.
22 When they heard it, they were astonished, and left him, and went away.
Are xkita ri xbꞌix chike: Sibꞌalaj xemayijanik, xkitzaq kanoq ri Jesús, xebꞌek.
23 On that day Sadducees came to him, the ones saying that there is no resurrection. And they asked him,
Che ri qꞌij riꞌ ri Saduceos, ri kakibꞌij chi maj kꞌastajibꞌal wach, xeqet rukꞌ ri Jesús, xkita jun kꞌotbꞌal chiꞌ che, xkibꞌij:
24 saying, "Teacher, Moses said, 'If a man dies, having no children, his brother is to marry his wife, and raise up offspring for his brother.'
Ajtij, ri Moisés xukꞌut kanoq chiqawach, we kꞌo jun achi kakꞌuliꞌk, kꞌa te riꞌ kakamik maj kꞌu kan e ralkꞌwaꞌl rukꞌ ri rixoqil, ri rachalal ri achi ri xkamik kakꞌuliꞌk kan rukꞌ ri rixoqil ri rachalal, rech kekꞌojiꞌ rijaꞌl ri rachalal.
25 Now there were with us seven brothers. The first married and died, and having no offspring, left his wife to his brother.
Chiqaxoꞌl uj xekꞌojiꞌ e wuqubꞌ alaxik. Ri nabꞌyal xkꞌuliꞌk, kꞌa te riꞌ xkamik, maj e ralkꞌwaꞌl xekanaj kanoq rukꞌ ri rixoqil, rumal riꞌ xkꞌuliꞌ kanoq ri rachalal rukꞌ ri rixoqil.
26 In like manner the second also, and the third, to the seventh.
Jeꞌ xkꞌulmataj rukꞌ ri ukabꞌ, ri urox, kꞌa xtoꞌtaj rukꞌ ri wuqubꞌ alaxik. Konojel xekꞌuliꞌ rukꞌ ri ixoq, xekam kꞌu bꞌik maj jun xuya kanoq ralkꞌwaꞌl rukꞌ ri ixoq.
27 After them all, the woman died.
Kꞌisbꞌal rech xkam bꞌik ri ixoq.
28 In the resurrection therefore, whose wife will she be of the seven? For they all had her."
Are kuriq ri qꞌij rech kꞌastajibꞌal wach ¿jachin chike we wuqubꞌ achyabꞌ riꞌ rachajil we ixoq, rumal cher konojel xekꞌuliꞌ rukꞌ?
29 But Yeshua answered them, "You are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.
Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: Ri ix ix sachinaq rumal man iwetaꞌm taj ri tzꞌibꞌatalik xuqujeꞌ ri ukwinem ri Dios.
30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are like the angels in heaven.
Pa ri kꞌastajibꞌal wach man kekꞌuliꞌ taj chi ri winaq, xuqujeꞌ man keya ta xuqujeꞌ pa kꞌulanem, xane jer kuꞌx angelibꞌ ri e kꞌo pa ri kaj.
31 But concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read that which was spoken to you by God, saying,
Are kꞌu ri kꞌastajibꞌal wach ke ri kaminaqibꞌ, ¿la man isikꞌim ri xubꞌij ri Dios chiꞌwe ojer?
32 'I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?' God is not the God of the dead, but of the living."
In riꞌ, ri in uDios ri Abraham, ri Isaac, xuqujeꞌ ri Jacob. Ri Dios man kiDios taj kaminaqibꞌ xane kiDios e kꞌaslik taq winaq.
33 When the crowds heard it, they were astonished at his teaching.
Are xkita ri winaq ri xubꞌij ri Jesús, xemayijanik che ri ukꞌutuꞌn.
34 But the Pharisees, when they heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, gathered themselves together.
Ri fariseos are xkita ri xubꞌij ri Jesús chike ri e saduceos, xkimulij kibꞌ rech kakikoj chi jun kꞌaꞌmabꞌal che ri Jesús.
35 One of them, a Law scholar, asked him a question, testing him.
Jun chike ri fariseos ri qas retaꞌm ri taqanik xubꞌan jun kꞌotbꞌal chiꞌ che ri Jesús, rech kukoj jun kꞌaꞌmabꞌal che xubꞌij:
36 "Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the law?"
Ajtij, ¿pa ri utaqanik ri Moisés, jachin chike ri taqanik ri sibꞌalaj nim uqꞌij?
37 He said to him, "'You are to love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.'
Ri Jesús xubꞌij che: Chaloqꞌaj ri Ajawxel ri aDios rukꞌ ronojel awanimaꞌ, rukꞌ ronojel akꞌuꞌx, xuqujeꞌ rukꞌ ronojel achomanik.
38 This is the great and first commandment.
Are waꞌ ri nabꞌe taqanik xuqujeꞌ nim uqꞌij chikiwach ronojel ri nikꞌaj chik.
39 A second likewise is this, 'You are to love your neighbor as yourself.'
Ri ukabꞌ taqanik xaq raj junam rukꞌ we nabꞌe: Chaloqꞌaj ri ajil tzꞌaqat, jacha ri kabꞌan chuloqꞌaxik awibꞌ at.
40 The whole Law and the Prophets depend on these two commandments."
Pa ukobꞌchal we taqanik riꞌ kꞌo wi ronojel ri kubꞌij ri taqanik xuqujeꞌ ronojel ri kitzijom loq ri e qꞌalajisal taq utzij ri Dios.
41 Now while the Pharisees were gathered together, Yeshua asked them a question,
Ri fariseos kimulim kibꞌ are xuta ri Jesús chike:
42 saying, "What do you think of the Messiah? Whose son is he?" They said to him, "Of David."
¿Jas kichomaj ix chirij ri Cristo? ¿Ralkꞌwaꞌl jachinaq? Ri fariseos xkibꞌij che: Ralkꞌwaꞌl ri David.
43 He said to them, "How then does David in the Ruach call him Lord, saying,
¿Jas kꞌu che ri David nojinaq che ri Uxlabꞌixel xubꞌij Ajawxel che? Are xubꞌij:
44 'The Lord said to my Lord, sit on my right hand, until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet'?
Xubꞌij ri Ajawxel che ri wajaw: chattꞌuyul pa ri nuwiqiqꞌabꞌ kꞌa keꞌnya na konojel ri akꞌulel pa awaqan.
45 "If then David calls him Lord, how is he his son?"
Ri David we kubꞌij “wajaw” che ri Mesías ¿jas ta kꞌu che riꞌ ukꞌojol?
46 No one was able to answer him a word, neither did anyone dare ask him any more questions from that day forth.
Xa ta ne jun xkwinik xutzalij uwach ri xubꞌij ri Jesús, xa ta ne jun tzij xkibꞌij che, tzi che ri qꞌij riꞌ maj chi jun karaj kubꞌan kꞌotbꞌal chiꞌ che ri Jesús.
