Acts 9
1 But Saul, yet breathing out threatening and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest,
Ri Saulo sibꞌalaj kꞌaꞌnarinaq kurayij kikamisaxik ri e tereneꞌl taq rech ri Ajawxel, rumal riꞌ xeꞌ rukꞌ ri kinimaꞌqil ri chꞌawenelabꞌ cho ri Dios.
2 and asked of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any who were of this way of belief, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.
Xutoqꞌij chi kataq bꞌik wuj pa ri Sinagoga ri kꞌo pa ri tinimit Damasco, rech ketaqan che kichapik ri kojonelabꞌ che ri Jesús. Xuqujeꞌ rech we kuꞌriq achyabꞌ xuqujeꞌ ixoqibꞌ ri e kojonelabꞌ kuꞌkꞌam bꞌik pa cheꞌ je laꞌ pa Jerusalén.
3 And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus; and suddenly there shone around a him a light from heaven;
Ri Saulo are xopan chunaqaj ri tinimit Damasco rech kubꞌana ri rajawam ukꞌuꞌx xaq kꞌa teꞌ xril jun nimalaj tunal ri xpe cho ri kaj, xusutij rij.
4 and he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying to him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
Ri Saulo xtzaq pa ri ulew, xuta jun chꞌabꞌal, xubꞌij che: Saulo, Saulo, ¿jas che tajin kabꞌan kꞌax chwe?
5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And he answered, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.
Ri Saulo xubꞌij: ¿Jachin ri lal, Tat? Ri Jesús xubꞌij: In, in Jesús ri tajin kabꞌan kꞌax chwe.
6 But arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.
Chatwaꞌjiloq, jat pa ri tinimit. Chilaꞌ kabꞌix wi chawe jas rajawaxik kabꞌano, xuchixik.
7 And the men that journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing the voice, but seeing no one.
Ri achyabꞌ ri e bꞌenaq rukꞌ ri Saulo man kakiriq ta chik jas kakibꞌij rumal chi man kakil ta uwach ri tajin kachꞌawik xaq xwi kakita ri chꞌabꞌal.
8 And Saul arose from the earth; but when his eyes were opened, he saw nothing; and they led him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus.
Are xwaꞌjil ri Saulo, xraj xkaꞌyik man xkwin ta chi kꞌut, rumal cher xmoyirik. Xaq xtzuyex chi bꞌik che ri uqꞌabꞌ kumal ri rachiꞌl xebꞌe pa ri tinimit Damasco.
9 And he was three days without sight, and neither ate nor drank.
Oxibꞌ qꞌij xkanaj chilaꞌ, moy. Maj wa maj jaꞌ xutijo.
10 And there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias, and to him the Lord said in a vision, Ananias! And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord.
Kꞌo kꞌu jun kojonel pa ri tinimit Damasco ubꞌiꞌ Ananías. Xchꞌabꞌex rumal ri Dios: ¡Ananías! xuchixik. Ri Ananías xubꞌij: In kꞌolik riꞌ Ajawxel.
11 And the Lord said to him, Arise, and go into the street called Straight, and inquire in the house of Judas for one called Saul, of Tarsus; for lo! he prayeth,
Ri Ajawxel xubꞌij che: Jat pa ri bꞌe ri kabꞌix wiqiqꞌabꞌ che, pa ri rachoch ri Judas, are katopanik chataꞌ jawjeꞌ kꞌo wi ri jun achi ri kape pa ri tinimit Tarso, ubꞌiꞌnam Saulo, chanim tajin kubꞌan chꞌawem.
12 and hath seen a man, named Ananias, coming in and putting his hand on him, that he might receive sight.
Xinkꞌut choch chi kꞌo jun achi ubꞌiꞌ Ananías, kopan jawjeꞌ ri kꞌo wi, kuya uqꞌabꞌ puꞌwiꞌ rech katzalitaj ri ukaꞌyibꞌal.
13 But Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how great evils he hath done to thy saints at Jerusalem.
Ri Ananías xubꞌij: Ajawxel, e nutom sibꞌalaj kꞌi winaq kakitzijoj ri itzel taq jastaq ri ubꞌanom ri achi riꞌ chike ri kojonelabꞌ ri e kꞌo pa ri tinimit Jerusalén.
14 And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that call on thy name.
Xuqujeꞌ yaꞌtal bꞌe che kumal ri kinimaꞌqil ri e chꞌawenelabꞌ cho ri Dios rech kuꞌchap konojel ri kakinaꞌtaj ri bꞌiꞌ la.
15 But the Lord said to him, Go; for this man is to me a chosen vessel, to bear my name before nations, and kings, and the sons of Israel.
Ri Ajawxel xubꞌij che ri Ananías: ¡Jat! waꞌ we achi riꞌ kinkoj na chutzijoxik ri nutzij chike ri winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj, xuqujeꞌ kutzijoj na ri nutzij chike ri taqanelabꞌ xuqujeꞌ chike ri tinimit Israel.
16 For I myself will show him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake.
Kinkꞌut na choch jas jeꞌ uriqik kꞌax rumal ri nubꞌiꞌ.
17 And Ananias went away, and entered the house; and putting his hands on him, he said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus who appeared to thee in the way thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mayst receive sight, and be filled with the Holy Spirit.
Xeꞌ kꞌu ri Ananías jawjeꞌ kꞌo wi ri Saulo, xuya ri uqꞌabꞌ puꞌwiꞌ xubꞌij che: Wachalal Saulo, ri Ajawxel Jesús ri xukꞌut ribꞌ chawach pa ri bꞌe xinutaq loq rech katkwinik katkaꞌyik, xuqujeꞌ rech katnoj che ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel.
18 And immediately there fell off from his eyes as it were scales; and he received sight, and arose, and was baptized.
Aninaq xel nikꞌaj slot che ri ubꞌoqꞌoch ri Saulo, xkaꞌyik xuqujeꞌ xwaꞌjilik kꞌa te riꞌ xbꞌan uqasanaꞌ.
19 And having taken some food he was strengthened. And he was some days with the disciples in Damascus.
Kꞌa te riꞌ xwaꞌik jeriꞌ xtzalij ri uchuqꞌabꞌ. Xkanaj kꞌu kan kebꞌ oxibꞌ qꞌij pa ri tinimit Damasco.
20 And immediately he preached Jesus in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.
Ri Saulo xuchapleꞌj utzijoxik ri Jesús pa taq ri Sinagoga, xubꞌij: Qas tzij ri Jesús, are ukꞌojol ri Dios.
21 And all that heard him were amazed, and said, Is not this he that destroyed in Jerusalem those who called on this name? And he hath come hither for this purpose, that he may bring them bound to the chief priests.
Konojel ri xkita ri tzij sibꞌalaj xemayijanik xkibꞌij: ¿La man kꞌu are waꞌ ri achi ri xukoj chꞌoꞌj chikixoꞌl ri kojonelabꞌ pa ri tinimit Jerusalén? ¿La man kꞌu are waꞌ ri kuꞌyut bꞌik ri kojonelabꞌ kuꞌkꞌam bꞌik chikiwach ri kinimaꞌqil ri chꞌawenelabꞌ?
22 But Saul gained still more strength, and confounded the Jews who dwelt at Damascus, proving that this is the Christ.
Qꞌij chi qꞌij ri Saulo xkꞌiy uchuqꞌabꞌ chutzijoxik ri utz laj tzij chike ri aꞌj Israel ri e kꞌo pa Damasco, xa jeriꞌ xkiqꞌalajisaj chi ri Jesús are Mesías.
23 But after many days had passed, the Jews took counsel together to kill him;
Ikꞌowinaq chi sibꞌalaj kꞌi qꞌij ri winaq aꞌj Israel xkichomaj ukamisaxik ri Saulo.
24 but their plot became known to Saul; and they were even watching the gates day and night to kill him.
Chi chaqꞌabꞌ chi paqꞌij xkichajij ri uchiꞌ ja rech ri tinimit rech jeriꞌ kakikamisaj, xbꞌix kꞌu che ri Saulo ri kichomanik ri winaq.
25 But his disciples took him by night, and let him down through the wall, lowering him in a basket.
Jun chaqꞌabꞌ kꞌut nikꞌaj kojonelabꞌ xkiqasaj bꞌi ri Saulo pa jun chakach pa jun teqꞌ rech ri tapya rech ri tinimit.
26 And when he had come to Jerusalem, he attempted to join himself to the disciples; and they were all afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.
Are xopan ri Saulo pa ri tinimit Jerusalén, xraj xkꞌojiꞌ kukꞌ ri kojonelabꞌ. Ri kojonelabꞌ xkixiꞌj kibꞌ che, man xkikoj taj chi qas kojonel chik.
27 But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and related to them how he had seen the Lord on the road, and that he had spoken to him, and hew he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus.
Xpe kꞌu ri Bernabé, xukꞌam bꞌik ri Saulo chkiwach ri e taqoꞌn xutzijoj chike chi ri Saulo xril ri Jesús pa ri bꞌe ri keꞌ pa ri tinimit Damasco xuqujeꞌ xchꞌabꞌex rumal. Xubꞌij xuqujeꞌ chike chi ri Saulo rukꞌ chuqꞌabꞌ xutzijoj ri ubꞌiꞌ ri Jesús je laꞌ pa ri tinimit Damasco.
28 And he was with them going in and out at Jerusalem,
Xaq jeriꞌ xkanaj kan ri Saulo kukꞌ ri e taqoꞌn rukꞌ chuqꞌabꞌ xkitzijoj ri utzij ri Ajawxel pa ri tinimit Jerusalén.
29 speaking boldly in the name of the Lord. And he often spoke and disputed with the Hellenists; but they were endeavoring to slay him.
Ri Saulo xtzijon kukꞌ nikꞌaj winaq aꞌj Israel, we winaq ri ketzijon pa ri tzijobꞌal griego, are xkita ri xubꞌij chike xkaj xkikamisaj.
30 But the brethren obtaining knowledge of it, brought him down to Caesarea, and sent him forth to Tarsus.
Are xkita ri kojonelabꞌ ri xkꞌulmatajik, xkikꞌam bꞌik ri Saulo pa tinimit Cesarea, kꞌa te riꞌ xkitaq bꞌik pa ri utinimit je laꞌ Tarso.
31 The church therefore throughout all Judaea and Galilee and Samaria had peace, being built up, and walking in the fear of the Lord; and by the exhortation of the Holy Spirit it was greatly increased.
Ri komontyox xkꞌiyik xuqujeꞌ xuriq jaꞌmaril pa ronojel Judea, pa Galilea xuqujeꞌ pa Samaria. Ri kojonelabꞌ xkimochꞌ kibꞌ xeꞌ raqan uqꞌabꞌ ri Ajawxel xyaꞌtaj kichuqꞌabꞌ pa ri kikojobꞌal rukꞌ ri utobꞌanik ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel.
32 And it came to pass, that as Peter went through the whole country, he came down also to the saints who dwelt at Lydda.
Are kꞌu ri Pedro are tajin kuꞌsolij sibꞌalaj kꞌi leꞌaj xeꞌ chikisolixik ri e kojonelabꞌ ri e kꞌo pa ri tinimit Lida.
33 And there he found a certain man named AEneas, who had lain on a bed eight years, and was palsied.
Chilaꞌ xuriq wi jun achi ubꞌiꞌ Eneas, we achi riꞌ wajxaqibꞌ junabꞌ chik qꞌoyol pa ri uchꞌat, kaminaq ri ubꞌaqil.
34 And Peter said to him, AEneas, Jesus the Christ healeth thee; arise, and make thy bed. And he arose immediately.
Ri Pedro xubꞌij che: Eneas, chatwaꞌjiloq. Ri Jesucristo katukunaj, chayaka bꞌik ri achꞌat. Are xbꞌiꞌtaj we riꞌ che, aninaq xutzirik.
35 And all that dwelt in Lydda and Sharon saw him; and they turned to the Lord.
Ri winaq ri e kꞌo pa ri tinimit Lida, xuqujeꞌ ri e kꞌo pa ri tinimit Sarón, are xkilo chi ri Eneas xbꞌinik xekojon che ri Ajawxel.
36 Now at Joppa there was a certain disciple named Tabitha, which name being interpreted is the same as Dorcas, that is, Gazelle. This woman was full of good works and alms-deeds which she did.
Kꞌo kꞌu jun ixoq kojonel pa ri tinimit Jope ubꞌiꞌ Tabita, (pa ri chꞌabꞌal griego kel kubꞌij Dorcas). We chuchuꞌ riꞌ amaqꞌel kubꞌan utz laj taq jastaq xuqujeꞌ kuꞌtoꞌ ri e mebꞌaibꞌ.
37 And it came to pass in those days, that she fell sick, and died; and when they had washed her, they laid her in an upper chamber.
Xyawaj kꞌu che taq ri qꞌij riꞌ kꞌa te riꞌ xkamik. Xchꞌaj kꞌu ri utyoꞌjal xya pa uwiq jun ja.
38 And as Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, having heard that Peter was there, sent to him two men with the entreaty, Do not delay to come to us.
Ri kojonelabꞌ are xkito chi ri Pedro naqaj kꞌo wi chike xeꞌkitaq bꞌik kebꞌ achyabꞌ rukꞌ xeꞌkibꞌij che: Chabꞌana jun toqꞌobꞌ, jat qukꞌ aninaq.
39 Then Peter arose, and went with them. When he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber; and all the widows came to him weeping, and showing the coats and cloaks which Dorcas made while she was with them.
Ri Pedro xeꞌ kukꞌ. Are xoꞌpanik xkikꞌam bꞌik pa ri ja ri kꞌo chikaj. Pa ri ja e nojinaq malkaꞌnibꞌ koꞌqꞌik kakikꞌut cho ri Pedro ri katzꞌyaq ri ubꞌanom ri Dorcas are xkꞌojiꞌ kukꞌ.
40 But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down and prayed; and turning to the body he said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes; and seeing Peter, she sat up.
Ri Pedro xeꞌresaj loq konojel ri e kꞌo pa ri ja kꞌa te riꞌ xukiꞌk xubꞌan chꞌawem. Xukaꞌyej ri kaminaq, xubꞌij che: Tabita, chatwaꞌjiloq. Ri Tabita xujaq ri ubꞌoqꞌoch, are xril ri Pedro, xwaꞌjilik, xtꞌuyiꞌk.
41 And he gave her his hand, and raised her up; and calling the saints and the widows, he presented her alive.
Ri Pedro xuchap che ri uqꞌabꞌ, xutoꞌo xwaꞌjilik. Kꞌa te riꞌ xuꞌsikꞌij ri e malkaꞌnibꞌ xuqujeꞌ konojel ri kojonelabꞌ xukꞌut chikiwach chi ri Tabita kꞌaslik.
42 And it became known throughout all Joppa; and many believed in the Lord.
Xtzijox kꞌu ri kꞌulmatajem pa ronojel ri tinimit, e kꞌi xekojon che ri Ajawxel.
43 And it came to pass, that he tarried many days in Joppa with one Simon, a tanner.
Naj kꞌut xkꞌojiꞌ na kan ri Pedro pa ri tinimit Jope cho rachoch ri Simón ri kachakun che taq tzꞌuꞌm.
