< Philippians 2 >

1 If then there is any exhortation in Christ, if any encouragement from love, if any partaking of the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion,
We ri Cristo uyaꞌom ichuqꞌabꞌ rech kiꞌtaqchiꞌj nikꞌaj chik, xuqujeꞌ we ri iloqꞌanik kixutaqchiꞌj chukubꞌisaxik kikꞌuꞌx nikꞌaj chik, xuqujeꞌ we iwonojel xa jun Uxlabꞌal ixukꞌaꞌninaq xuqujeꞌ we kel ikꞌuꞌx chike nikꞌaj chik,
2 make my joy full, that ye be of the same mind, having the same love, with union of soul cherishing one mind;
chininojisaj che kiꞌkotemal, chijunamaj ikꞌuꞌx, chijunamaj ri iloqꞌanik, xuqujeꞌ chijunamaj ri iwanimaꞌ xuqujeꞌ ri ichomabꞌal.
3 doing nothing in the spirit of faction, or in the spirit of vain-glory, but in humility esteeming others as better than yourselves;
Mibꞌan jun jastaq rukꞌ nimal o xa rumal kiwaj kitzukuj chꞌoꞌj, xane chibꞌana rukꞌ mochꞌochꞌem, chiꞌwilaꞌ chi are e nimaꞌq ri nikꞌaj chik chiꞌwach.
4 looking each of you not to his own interest, but each to the interest of others also.
Man xwi ta kiwilij ri jastaq ri kajawataj chiꞌwe ix pa ijujunal, xane chiwila xuqujeꞌ ri kirajawaxik ri nikꞌaj chik.
5 Yea, let this mind be in you which was in Christ Jesus,
Ri inoꞌjibꞌal rajawaxik je kuxik jetaq ri rech ri Cristo Jesús,
6 who, being in the form of God, did not regard it as a thing to be grasped at to be on an equality with God,
ri areꞌ, pune are Dios, man xukoj ta uchuqꞌabꞌ chubꞌixik chi tzi are wi Dios.
7 but made himself of no consideration, taking the form of a servant, and becoming like men;
Xane xubꞌan nitzꞌ chibꞌil ribꞌ jeꞌ jas jun ajchak, xalax pa ri uwachulew jetaq jun winaq, xuqujeꞌ xubꞌan achi chibꞌil ribꞌ.
8 and in what appertained to him appearing as a man, he humbled himself, and was obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
Are xubꞌan achi chibꞌil ribꞌ, xumochꞌ ribꞌ, xnimanik xeꞌ kꞌa pa ri kamikal, kamikal cho ri ripbꞌal.
9 Wherefore God also highly exalted him, and gave him a name which is above every name;
Rumal riꞌ, ri Dios xuya nimalaj uqꞌij, xuya ri bꞌiꞌaj che puꞌwiꞌ ronojel bꞌiꞌaj.
10 that in the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those who are in heaven, and those on earth, and those under the earth,
Rech jeriꞌ kakimej kichꞌek choch konojel ri e kꞌo pa ri kaj, ri e kꞌo choch ri uwachulew xuqujeꞌ ri e kꞌo chuxeꞌ ri uwachulew.
11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God, the Father.
Xuqujeꞌ rech konojel kakiqꞌalajisaj rukꞌ ri kichiꞌ chi are ri Jesucristo Ajawxel rech jeriꞌ kayaꞌtaj uqꞌij ri Dios Tataxel.
12 So then, my beloved, as ye always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling;
Xaq jeriꞌ, loqꞌalaj taq qachalal, rumal cher amaqꞌel kixniman chwe, man xwi ta are in kꞌo iwukꞌ, xane are man in kꞌo ta iwukꞌ, chiwukꞌaj ri ikolotajem rukꞌ mochꞌoj ibꞌ xuqujeꞌ rukꞌ nimanik.
13 for it is God who worketh in you both to will and to work for his good pleasure.
Jeriꞌ rumal cher are ri Dios kabꞌanow chiꞌwe chi kixnimanik xuqujeꞌ kiwaj kibꞌan ronojel ri jastaq rech kibꞌano ri urayibꞌal ukꞌuꞌx.
14 Do all things without murmurings and doubts;
Chibꞌana ri jastaq man rukꞌ ta chꞌaoj ibꞌ xuqujeꞌ man rukꞌ ta oyawal.
15 that ye may be blameless and pure, children of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation; among whom ye shine as luminaries in the world,
Jeriꞌ qas ixchꞌajchꞌoj man kꞌo ta imak, rumal cher ix, ix ralkꞌwaꞌl ri Dios, ri ix kꞌo chikixoꞌl ri winaq ri aꞌjmakibꞌ, ri man kꞌyaqal taj kechomanik. Ix kꞌo chikixoꞌl we winaq riꞌ, jetaq ri chꞌumil ri kachuplinik cho ri kaj.
16 holding forth the word of life, that I may have whereof to boast against the day of Christ, that I did not run in vain, or labor in vain.
Are chiwilij uqꞌalajisaxik ri tzij rech kꞌaslemal. Rech jeriꞌ are kuriq ri upetibꞌal ri Cristo, kakiꞌkot na kꞌuꞌx are kinwetaꞌmaj chi man xaq ta xintzaq ri nuchuqꞌabꞌ, xuqujeꞌ man xaq ta xinchakun chi jeriꞌ.
17 But if I am even poured out on the sacrifice and ministration of your faith, I rejoice, and rejoice with you all.
Pune kesax na ri nukꞌaslemal xuqujeꞌ katzuj na jetaq jun sipanik xa rumal ri ikojobꞌal, kinkiꞌkotik na riꞌ xuqujeꞌ kawaj chi kixkiꞌkot na ix wukꞌ.
18 For the same reason, do ye also rejoice, and rejoice with me.
Ix xuqujeꞌ, chixkiꞌkotoq, xuqujeꞌ chiya we ri ikiꞌkotemal.
19 But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, that I also may be cheered when I know your state.
Kinwayeꞌj che ri Ajawxel Jesús kinkwinik kintaq bꞌik ri Timoteo iwukꞌ rech jeriꞌ kinkꞌamawaꞌj nuchuqꞌabꞌ are kinwetaꞌmaj jas jeꞌ ibꞌanom.
20 For I have no one like-minded, who will have a true concern for your state;
Ri Timoteo sibꞌalaj kꞌax ukꞌuꞌx chiꞌwe, rumal cher kixuloqꞌaj jetaq ri kinbꞌan in.
21 for all of them are seeking their own things, not those of Christ Jesus.
Konojel ri nikꞌaj xaq are kakilij ri jastaq ri kajawataj chike, man are ta kakilij ri karaj ri Jesucristo.
22 But ye know the proof of him, that, as a son serves a father, he served with me for the gospel.
Ix iwetaꞌm uwach ri Timoteo, sibꞌalaj utz ri kanoꞌjinik, ubꞌanom ri patanijik wukꞌ chuqꞌalajisaxik ri utz laj tzij, je ri kꞌo jun alkꞌwaꞌlaxel ri sibꞌalaj utz kanoꞌjinik che ri utat.
23 Him therefore I hope to send forthwith, as soon as I see how it will go with me;
Kawaj kꞌut kintaq bꞌik aninaq iwukꞌ, xwi wayeꞌm kinwetaꞌmaj jas kakꞌulmataj wukꞌ.
24 but I trust in the Lord that I also myself shall come soon.
Kuꞌl na kꞌuꞌx chirij ri Ajawxel chi kineꞌ xuqujeꞌ na in, kixeꞌnwilaꞌ.
25 Yet I thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, and companion in labor, and fellow-soldier, but your messenger, and minister to my wants;
Xuqujeꞌ xinchomaj chi utz kubꞌan chiꞌwe we kintaq bꞌik ri Epafrodito iwukꞌ, areꞌ jun alaxik xuqujeꞌ jun tobꞌanel, wachiꞌl pa taq ri nuchꞌoꞌj, are waꞌ ri xitaq loq chinupatanixik.
26 for he was longing after you all, and was much troubled, because ye heard that he was sick.
Ri Epafrodito sibꞌalaj kixubꞌisoj xuqujeꞌ kꞌax ranimaꞌ chiꞌwe xiwetaꞌmaj waꞌ chi yawabꞌ.
27 For indeed he was sick near to death; but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.
Qas ne tzij wi xyawajik, jubꞌiqꞌ xraj xkamik. Ri Dios kꞌut xel ukꞌuꞌx che, man xwi taj xel ukꞌuꞌx che areꞌ xane xel xuqujeꞌ ukꞌuꞌx chwe in, rech jeriꞌ man xnimataj ta ri nubꞌis.
28 I send him therefore the more speedily, that when ye see him ye may again rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.
Rumal riꞌ kintaq chi bꞌi iwukꞌ rech kixkiꞌkot chi junmul we chiwil uwach, rech xuqujeꞌ man kakꞌaxir ta chi wanimaꞌ in.
29 Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness, and hold such in honor;
Chikꞌamawaꞌj pa ri Ajawxel, rukꞌ kiꞌkotemal xuqujeꞌ nim chiꞌwila ri je kenoꞌjinik jetaq ri areꞌ.
30 because he was near to death on account of the work, hazarding his life to supply what was wanting on your part in the ministration to me.
Jeriꞌ rumal jubꞌiqꞌ xraj xkamik rumal ri uchak ri Cristo, xuya ri ukꞌaslemal rech xubꞌan ri patanijik ri man xixkwin ta ix xibꞌano.
