< Revelation 2 >
1 To the angel of the church in Ephesus write: These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks:
Chatzꞌibꞌaj we tzij riꞌ che ri komontyox ri kꞌo pa Éfeso: Ri kꞌo wuqubꞌ chꞌumil pa ri uwiqiqꞌabꞌ, ri kꞌo puꞌnikꞌajil ri wuqubꞌ kꞌolibꞌal kantela bꞌantal che qꞌana pwaq, kubꞌij:
2 I know thy works, and thy labor, and thy endurance, and that thou canst not bear evil men; and thou didst try those who say they are apostles, and are not, and didst find them liars;
Ri in wetaꞌm ri tajin kabꞌano, ri kꞌax laj chak xuqujeꞌ ri ajeqelem. Wetaꞌm chi man kaqꞌiꞌtaj katkꞌojiꞌk kukꞌ ri itzel taq winaq. Qas xaꞌsolij na ri winaq ri kakijaluj chi e nutaqoꞌn xawil kꞌut chi xaq e bꞌanal taq tzij.
3 and thou hast endurance, and hast borne on account of my name, and hast not become weary.
Qas xjeqiꞌ akꞌuꞌx xuqujeꞌ xariq kꞌax rumal ri nubꞌiꞌ, man at qꞌiꞌtajinaq ta kꞌut.
4 But I have this against thee, that thou hast left thy first love.
Pune jeriꞌ at noꞌjininaq, kꞌo jun jastaq ri man utz taj wilom chawe, man kinaloqꞌaj ta chik jetaq ri xabꞌan chinuloqꞌaxik are kꞌa te wi xatkojonik.
5 Remember therefore whence thou hast fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come to thee, and will remove thy candlestick out of its place, unless thou repent.
Naꞌtaj bꞌa chawe jas jeꞌ ri katnoꞌjin kan nabꞌe, chattzalij chunimaxik ri Dios. Chatzaqa kanoq ubꞌanik ri etzelal, are chawilij ubꞌanik ri utz taq chak ri kabꞌan kan nabꞌe. We man jeriꞌ kabꞌano, keꞌnqꞌata tzij paꞌwiꞌ xuqujeꞌ kinwesaj bꞌik ri kꞌolibꞌal akantela pa ri ukꞌolibꞌal.
6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.
Ri utz kinwilo che ri kabꞌano, are chi kawetzelaj ri kakibꞌan ri winaq ri kabꞌix Nicolaítas chike, are waꞌ jun jastaq ri kinwetzelaj xuqujeꞌ in.
7 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches. To him that overcometh I will give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the paradise of my God.
Ri kꞌo uxikin, chutatabꞌej ri kubꞌij ri Uxlabꞌixel chike ri komontyox. Ri kachꞌeken puꞌwiꞌ ri kꞌaxkꞌolal, kinya na bꞌe che kutij ri uwach ri cheꞌ ri kuya kꞌaslemal, are waꞌ ri kꞌo pa ri jun jeꞌl laj kꞌolibꞌal ri utikom ri Dios.
8 And to the angel of the church in Smyrna write: These things saith the first and the last, who was dead, and lived again:
Xuqujeꞌ chatzꞌibꞌaj che ri ángel rech ri komontyox ri kꞌo pa Esmirna: In riꞌ ri in nabꞌe xuqujeꞌ in kꞌisbꞌal, ri xinkam na kꞌa te riꞌ xinkꞌastajik:
9 I know thy affliction and poverty, (but thou art rich, ) and the blasphemy of those who say they are Jews, and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.
In wetaꞌm ri achak xuqujeꞌ ri kꞌax ri kariqo, je xuqujeꞌ ri amebꞌail, pune jeriꞌ at, at qꞌinom. Wetaꞌm chi ri winaq ri kakibꞌij chi aꞌj Israel kakibꞌan bꞌanoj tzij chawij pune kꞌu jeriꞌ kakibꞌano, we winaq riꞌ xaq e rachoch ri Itzel.
10 Fear not the things which thou art about to suffer. Behold, now, the Devil is about to cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye will have tribulation ten days. Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee the crown of life.
Maxiꞌj awibꞌ che ri kꞌax ri kariq na. Ri itzel kuꞌkoj na nikꞌaj chiꞌwe pa cheꞌ, rech jeriꞌ karilo we qas jeqel ikꞌuꞌx chwij. Xuqujeꞌ kiriq na kꞌax jun lajuj qꞌij. We kꞌu kajeqiꞌ ikꞌuꞌx chwij kꞌa pa ri kamikal kinya na chiꞌwe ri korona rech jun alik kꞌaslemal.
11 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches. He that overcometh shall not be hurt by the second death.
Ri kꞌo uxikin, chutatabꞌej ri kubꞌij ri Uxlabꞌixel chike ri komontyox. Ri kachꞌeken puꞌwiꞌ we jastaq riꞌ man kuriq ta ri ukabꞌ kamikal.
12 And to the angel of the church in Pergamus write: These things saith he that hath the sharp two-edged sword:
Chatzꞌibꞌaj we tzij riꞌ che ri ángel rech ri komontyox pa Pérgamo: Are waꞌ ri kubꞌij ri ajchoqꞌe ri sakꞌibꞌal ri nitzꞌ uwach kebꞌ upuꞌchiꞌ.
13 I know where thou dwellest, where the throne of Satan is; and thou holdest fast my name, and didst not deny my faith, even in the days in which Antipas was my witness, my faithful one, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.
Wetaꞌm chi chilaꞌ katel wi jawjeꞌ kꞌo wi ri utꞌuyulibꞌal ri Itzel. Pune jeriꞌ xaq jeꞌ jeqel akꞌuꞌx chwij. Man xkabꞌalaj ta akꞌuꞌx chwij pune xawilo chi xkamisax ri sukꞌalaj patanil we Antipas, ri xkamisax pa ri tinimit jawjeꞌ kꞌo wi ri Itzel.
14 But I have a few things against thee; thou hast there them that hold the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to put a stumbling-block in the way of the sons of Israel, and to eat things sacrificed to idols, and to commit fornication.
Pune jeriꞌ, kꞌo jujun jastaq ri man utz taj kinwil chawe, are chi man awetzelam taj ri kakitereneꞌj ri ukꞌutuꞌn ri Balaam. Ri Balaam xuya unoꞌj ri Balac rech xuꞌtaqchiꞌj pa mak ri aꞌj Israel xuqujeꞌ xukoj kikꞌuꞌx rech kakiqꞌijilaꞌj e bꞌanom taq tyox xuqujeꞌ chutijik ri jastaq ri ikꞌowisatal chikiwach ri e bꞌanom taq tyox, je xuqujeꞌ chubꞌanik makaj kukꞌ taq achyabꞌ xuqujeꞌ ixoqibꞌ.
15 So thou also hast men holding the teaching of the Nicolaitans, in like manner.
Xuqujeꞌ man aꞌwetzelam taj ri winaq ri are kakitereneꞌj ri kikꞌutuꞌn ri winaq ri kabꞌix nicolaítas chike.
16 Repent therefore; or else I will come to thee quickly, and will make war with them with the sword of my mouth.
Rumal riꞌ kinbꞌij chawe chakꞌexa akꞌuꞌx, rumal cher we man kinanimaj, rukꞌ ri sakꞌibꞌal ri kel loq pa nuchiꞌ, kinpe na chubꞌanik kꞌax chawe xuqujeꞌ chike ri e tereneꞌl taq ke ri e nicolaítas
17 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches. To him that overcometh, I will give of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written, which no one knoweth but he that receiveth it.
Ri kꞌo uxikin chutatabꞌexik, chutatabꞌej ri kubꞌij ri Uxlabꞌixel chike ri komontyox. Ri kachꞌeken puꞌwiꞌ we jastaq riꞌ, kayaꞌtaj na che ri maná ri awatalik, xuqujeꞌ jun laj nitzꞌ saq abꞌaj jawjeꞌ ri tzꞌibꞌatal wi jun kꞌakꞌ bꞌiꞌaj ri xwi ri winaq ri kakꞌamawaꞌnik ketaꞌmanik jas ri tzꞌibꞌatal choch.
18 And to the angel of the church in Thyatira write: These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass:
Chatzꞌibꞌaj we tzij riꞌ che ri ángel ri kꞌo pa Tiatira: Are waꞌ ri kubꞌij ri Ukꞌojol ri Dios, ri kꞌo ubꞌoqꞌoch ri jer kꞌo ri qꞌaqꞌ ri kajinowik xuqujeꞌ ri raqan ri jer kꞌo qꞌanqꞌoj chꞌichꞌ ri kajuluwik. Chatatabꞌej ri kubꞌij:
19 I know thy works, and love, and faith, and service, and thy endurance, and that thy last works are more than the first.
Wilom chi kuꞌlinaq akꞌuꞌx chwij, ri chak ri abꞌanom, ri aloqꞌanik, ri apatanijik xuqujeꞌ ri ajeqelem, xuqujeꞌ ri kꞌisbꞌal taq achak are nimaꞌq cho ri nabꞌe taq chak ri xabꞌano.
20 But I have this against thee, that thou sufferest thy wife Jezebel, who calleth herself a prophetess, and she teacheth and seduceth my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed to idols.
Pune jeriꞌ katnoꞌjinik, kꞌo jun jastaq ri man utz taj wilom chawe, are chi utz kawilo chi ri jun ixoq Jezabel xaq jeꞌ tajin kuꞌtaqchiꞌj ri e patanil taq we pa mak, xuqujeꞌ ubꞌim chike chi utz kakitij ri jastaq ri tzujtal chikiwach ri e bꞌanom taq tyox, kꞌa te riꞌ kukoj kikꞌuꞌx rech man kajeqiꞌ ta kikꞌuꞌx chwij.
21 And I gave her time to repent, and she will not repent of her fornication.
Ri in nuyoꞌm na jun janipa qꞌij che rech kukꞌex ukꞌuꞌx, rech katzalij chinunimaxik, man tanalinaq ta kꞌu che ri uterenem chikij ri e bꞌanom taq tyox.
22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and those who together with her commit adultery into great distress, unless they repent of her deeds.
Rumal riꞌ kinbꞌan na che kuriq jun nimalaj yabꞌil, ri winaq kꞌut ri kakibꞌan mak rukꞌ kakiriq na nimalaj kꞌax we man kakikꞌex kikꞌuꞌx che ri xketaꞌmaj rukꞌ we ixoq riꞌ.
23 And her children I will slay with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he who searcheth the reins and hearts; and I will give to every one of you according to your works.
Ri e tereneꞌl taq rech we ixoq riꞌ kakiriq na yabꞌil rech kamikal. Jeriꞌ konojel ri komontyox kaketaꞌmaj na chi in kinsolin ri uchomabꞌal xuqujeꞌ ri ranimaꞌ ri winaq. Are kinya na ri kataqiꞌk chike ri winaq pa kijujunal.
24 But to you I say, the rest who are in Thyatira, as many as have not this teaching, such as have not known “the depths” of Satan, as they speak; I put upon you no other burden;
Are kꞌu ri ix, ri ix kꞌo xuqujeꞌ pa Tiatira ri man iwetaꞌmam ta iwe ri ukꞌutuꞌn we ixoq riꞌ xuqujeꞌ man iwetaꞌmam ta ri kabꞌix ri ukꞌuꞌx ri uchomabꞌal ri Itzel che ri awatalik, kinbꞌij chiꞌwe: Man kinya ta chi jun eqaꞌn chiꞌwij.
25 but that which ye have, hold fast till I come.
Are kꞌu ri yaꞌtal chiꞌwe chiyakaꞌ, kꞌa pa ri qꞌij ri kintzalij loq.
26 And he that overcometh, and he that keepeth my works to the end, to him I will give authority over the nations, —
Ri kachꞌeken puꞌwiꞌ we jastaq riꞌ xuqujeꞌ kubꞌan ri urayibꞌal na kꞌuꞌx kꞌa pa ri kꞌisbꞌal re ronojel, kinya na kwinem che kabꞌan re pa kiwiꞌ konojel ri tinimit ri e kꞌo cho ri uwachulew.
27 and he shall rule them with a rod of iron, as the vessels of a potter are broken to shivers, —as I also have received of my Father.
Jetaq ri ubꞌim ri Tataxel chwe in, ri winaq ri jewaꞌ kanoꞌjinik, kabꞌan na rech pa kiwiꞌ we tinimit riꞌ, rukꞌ kꞌaxal, xuqujeꞌ kuꞌpaxij na jetaq ri kabꞌan che ri tꞌuꞌy ri bꞌantal che rulewal bꞌoꞌj.
28 And I will give him the morning star.
Kinya na ri kwinem ri xuya ri Tataxel chwe in, xuqujeꞌ kinya na che ri chꞌumil rech aqꞌabꞌil.
29 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.
Ri kꞌo uxikin, chutatabꞌej ri kubꞌij ri Uxlabꞌixel chike ri e komontyox.
