Romans 1
1 Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, a called apostle, set apart to preach the gospel of God,
Ri Pablo patanil re ri Jesucristo, sikꞌital apanoq rech kux jun taqoꞌn, tzijol re ri utz laj taq tzij rech ri Dios.
2 which he had promised before by his prophets in the Holy Scriptures,
Ri ubꞌim loq ojer xuqujeꞌ kitzijom loq ri qꞌalajisal taq utzij ri Dios pa ri tyoxalaj taq tzꞌibꞌatalik.
3 the gospel concerning his Son, who was born of the seed of David as to the flesh,
We utz laj tzij katzijon chrij ri Ukꞌojol ri Dios, Jesucristo Rijaꞌl ri David pa ri tyoꞌjal,
4 and shown with power to be the Son of God as to his spirit of holiness, by the resurrection of the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord;
pa ri Uxlabꞌal ri katyoxirisanik, xqꞌalajisaxik chi are Ukꞌojol ri Dios, jeriꞌ rumal xkꞌastaj chikixoꞌl ri kaminaqibꞌ. Are waꞌ ri Jesucristo ri Ajawxel.
5 through whom we received grace and the office of an apostle in behalf of his name, in order to produce obedience to the faith among all nations;
Xa rumal rech areꞌ, xuqujeꞌ rumal rech ri ubꞌiꞌ, xyaꞌtaj ri sipanik rech taqoꞌn chaqe rech kujkwinik keꞌqataqchiꞌj konojel ri tinimit ri e kꞌo cho ri uwachulew xa jeriꞌ keniman che ri kojobꞌal.
6 among whom are ye also, the called of Jesus Christ;
Chikixoꞌl taq we tinimit riꞌ, ix kꞌo ix, ri ixusikꞌim apanoq ri Jesucristo.
7 to all the beloved of God at Rome, called, holy: Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Kintzꞌibꞌaj we wuj riꞌ chiꞌwe ix, ri sibꞌalaj ixuloqꞌ ri Dios ri ix kꞌo pa ri tinimit Roma, ri ix sikꞌital apanoq rech kixux tyoxalaj taq winaq. Are ri Dios ri qaTat xuqujeꞌ ri Ajawxel Jesucristo, cheyoꞌw toqꞌobꞌ xuqujeꞌ jaꞌmaril chiꞌwe.
8 In the first place, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.
Nabꞌe, kintyoxin rumal iwe che ri nuDios pa Jesucristo, rumal cher utz kabꞌan chutzijoxik ri ikojobꞌal pa ronojel ri uwachulew.
9 For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, how constantly I make mention of you, always in my prayers
Qas karil ri Dios ri kinpatanij rukꞌ ronojel wanimaꞌ, xuqujeꞌ kintzijoj ri utz laj utzij ri uKꞌojol, chi qas kixnaꞌtaj wi chwe ronojel qꞌij.
10 supplicating that, if it be possible, I may at last through the will of God be favored with an opportunity of coming to you.
Ronojel qꞌij kinta che ri Dios chi we are rayibꞌal ukꞌuꞌx Areꞌ, chuya bꞌe chwe kineꞌ chiꞌsolixik.
11 For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, which may be for your confirmation;
Sibꞌalaj kurayij wanimaꞌ kixeꞌnwilaꞌ rech jeriꞌ kinbꞌij chiꞌwe jas ubꞌanik ri sipanik pa ri Uxlabꞌixel xa jeriꞌ kikꞌamawaꞌj ichuqꞌabꞌ.
12 that is, that I may be edified among you, and you also, through each other's faith, both yours and mine.
Rech jeriꞌ kaqataqchiꞌla qibꞌ chiqajujunal pa ri xa jun qakojobꞌal.
13 But I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that I often purposed to come to you, though I have been hindered hitherto, that I might have some fruit of my labors among you also, as among the other gentiles.
Wachalal, kawaj kiwetaꞌmaj chi man inkwininaq taj ixnusolim, pune jeriꞌ nurayim isolixik rech keꞌnkꞌama loq we ri iwachinik, jacha ta ne ri ix ikꞌamom loq iwe kukꞌ ri winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj.
14 I am debtor both to Greeks and barbarians, both to the wise and the unwise.
In kꞌo pa kꞌasaj iwukꞌ iwonojel ta kꞌu kꞌo iwetaꞌmabꞌal ta kꞌu maj iwetaꞌmabꞌal, we ix aj Grecia o pune man ix aj Grecia taj.
15 So, according to my ability, I am ready to preach the gospel to you also in Rome.
Qas kurayij na kꞌuꞌx kintzijoj ri utz laj tzij chiꞌwe ix ri kixel pa ri tinimit Roma.
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel; for to every believer, to the Jew first and also to the Greek, it is the power of God unto salvation.
Qas tzij man kinkꞌixibꞌej taj uqꞌalajisaxik ri utz laj tzij rumal are ukwinem ri Dios rech jeriꞌ kekolotaj konojel ri kekojonik: nabꞌe na ri winaq aꞌj Israel kꞌa te riꞌ ri winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj.
17 For therein is revealed the righteousness which is of God from faith to faith; as it is written, “But the righteous shall live by faith.”
Pa ri utz laj tzij kaqꞌalajisax wi chi ri usukꞌal ri Dios kukꞌut ribꞌ rumal kojobꞌal xuqujeꞌ pa kojobꞌal: Jetaq ri kubꞌij ri Tzꞌibꞌatalik ri sukꞌ rumal kojobꞌal kakꞌasiꞌ na.
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all impiety and unrighteousness of men, who keep down the truth in unrighteousness.
Qas tzij wi, ri royawal ri Dios kape chilaꞌ pa ri kaj kukꞌut ribꞌ pa kiwiꞌ konojel ri winaq ri kakiqꞌatej rukꞌ etzelal ri qas tzij.
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest within them; for God made it manifest to them.
Ri rajawaxik ketaꞌmax che ri Dios sibꞌalaj qꞌalaj, jeriꞌ rumal cher tzi are ri Dios xkꞌutuw chikiwach ri winaq.
20 For, ever since the creation of the world, his invisible attributes, even his eternal power and divinity, being perceived from his works, are clearly seen, so that they might be without excuse. (aïdios g126)
Jeriꞌ rumal cher are xtiktaj loq ri uwachulew, ri jastaq ri man kilitaj taj che ri Dios, ri ukwinem ri maj umajitajik loq xuqujeꞌ maj ukꞌisik xuqujeꞌ ri kuxik ri Areꞌ, xilitajik pa ronojel ri xutiko, rech jeriꞌ maj jun kubꞌij chi man retaꞌm taj uwach ri Dios. (aïdios g126)
21 Because though they knew God, they did not glorify him as God, nor were they thankful to him; but became perverse in their reasonings, and their senseless minds were darkened;
Pune xketaꞌmaj uwach ri Dios, man xkiya taj uqꞌij ri Dios jetaq ri taqal che, xane xesach pa taq ri kichomanik ri maj kutayij, xuqujeꞌ xqꞌeqar ri kanimaꞌ.
22 professing to be wise, they became fools,
Pune kakibꞌij chi kꞌo ketaꞌmabꞌal xuꞌx kꞌut e kon taq winaq.
23 and for the glory of the incorruptible God they substituted images of corruptible man, and of birds and four-footed beasts and creeping things.
Xkikꞌex ri ujuluwem ri Dios ri man kakam taj, choch ri upalaj ri achi ri kamel, xuqujeꞌ kipalaj taq aꞌwaj ri kerapinik, ri kajibꞌ kichakalibꞌal xuqujeꞌ ri kakijururej kibꞌ cho ri uwachulew.
24 Wherefore God also gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to debase their bodies with one another;
Rumal riꞌ xejach rumal ri Dios pa taq ri itzel taq kichomabꞌal rech ri kanimaꞌ ri kuꞌkꞌam bꞌik pa ri makunem kukꞌ taq achyabꞌ xuqujeꞌ ixoqibꞌ, jeriꞌ xkitukij ri kityoꞌjal chi kijujunal.
25 because they changed the true God for false gods, and adored and worshipped created things rather than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Xkikꞌex ri qas tzij re ri Dios cho ri bꞌanoj tzij, xeꞌkiqꞌijilaꞌj xuqujeꞌ xeꞌkipatanij ri e jastaq ri xa e tiktalik, man xkiqꞌijilaꞌj taj ri Dios ri xetikowik, areꞌ ri Dios yaꞌtal uqꞌij chibꞌe qꞌij saq. (aiōn g165)
26 For this cause God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women indulged in unnatural lust,
Rumal ri xkibꞌano, ri Dios xuꞌjach pa ri kꞌixibꞌal ubꞌanik. Ri ixoqibꞌ xkikꞌex ri yaꞌtal ubꞌanik cho ri man yaꞌtal taj ubꞌanik.
27 and in like manner the men also, neglecting the natural use of the female, burned with lust for one another, men with men practising that which is shameful, and receiving in themselves the due recompense of their error.
Xuqujeꞌ ri achyabꞌ xkitzaq ubꞌanik ri riqoj ibꞌ rukꞌ ri ixoq, are xkichapleꞌj ubꞌanik mak achyabꞌ kukꞌ kech taq achyabꞌ xkibꞌan ri kꞌixibꞌal ubꞌanik, xuqujeꞌ xkikꞌamawaꞌj pa ke wi ri qꞌatoj tzij ri taqal chike.
28 And as they did not choose to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind, to do things which are shameful;
Xuqujeꞌ xkichomaj chi man taqal taj kakikoj pa kwenta ri retaꞌmabꞌal ri Dios, rumal riꞌ ri Dios xuꞌjach pa ri tontoꞌil rech jeriꞌ xkibꞌano ri man taqal taj kakibꞌano.
29 being filled with all unrighteousness, malice, covetousness, wickedness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malignity; backbiters,
Xkibꞌan ronojel uwach makaj, jiqꞌjatem, xuqujeꞌ tontoꞌil. Xenoj che tiꞌtatem, kamisanik, kojoj taq chꞌoꞌj, subꞌunik, etzelal, xuqujeꞌ tzijtaꞌlik.
30 slanderers, hated of God, insolent, proud, boasters, inventors of mischief, disobedient to parents,
E bꞌanal taq tzij, uꞌkꞌulel ri Dios, man kakinimaj ta kibꞌ. Kakibꞌan nimal, kakinimarisaj kibꞌ e wokol taq etzelal, man keꞌkinimaj taj ri kitat kinan.
31 senseless, faithless, without natural affection, without pity;
Maj ketaꞌmabꞌal, man sukꞌ taj ri kakibꞌano, man kꞌo taj kinaꞌoj, man je ta kenoꞌjin winaq.
32 who, although knowing the ordinance of God, that they who practise such things deserve death, not only do them themselves, but approve of those who do them.
Qas iwetaꞌm ri kubꞌij ri sukꞌ laj utaqanik ri Dios, ri jewaꞌ kenoꞌjinik taqal chike kekamik; jeriꞌ rumal man xwi ta jeriꞌ kenoꞌjinik, xane kakibꞌij chike ri jeriꞌ kenoꞌjinik chi utz ri tajin kakibꞌano.
