1 John 3

1 Behold what love has given to us the Father, that children of God we may be called — (and we are! *NO*) Because of this the world not knows (us, *NK(O)*) because not it knew Him.

¡Chiwilampeꞌ! Sibꞌalaj nim ri loqꞌanik ri xuya ri qatat Dios chaqe, rumal riꞌ kubꞌij chi uj ralkꞌwaꞌl, qas uj ralkꞌwaꞌl kꞌu wi, ri winaq ri man e kojonelabꞌ taj man ketaꞌm taj uj jachin uj, jeriꞌ rumal cher man ketaꞌm taj uwach ri Cristo.

2 Beloved, now children of God are we, and not yet has been revealed what we will be; We know (now *k*) that when He shall appear, like Him we will be, for we will behold Him even as He is.

Loqꞌalaj taq qachalal, uj ralkꞌwaꞌl chi ri Dios kamik, majaꞌ kꞌu kaqꞌalajinik jas qas kujux na. Xwi qetaꞌm chi are kape ri Cristo kujjunumataj na rukꞌ Areꞌ, jeriꞌ rumal kaqil na uwach.

3 And everyone who is having hope this in Him purifies himself even as He pure is.

Xapachin ri jeqel ukꞌuꞌx pa Cristo man kamakun ta riꞌ jacha ri Cristo man kamakun taj.

4 Everyone who is committing sin also lawlessness commits, and sin is lawlessness.

Ri winaq ri kubꞌan mak kuqꞌipij ri taqanik; xuqujeꞌ man nimanel taj che.

5 And you know that He appeared so that the sins (of us *K*) He may take away, and sin in Him not there is.

Iwetaꞌm kꞌut chi ri Cristo xpetik chuchupik ri qamak. Xuqujeꞌ Areꞌ man kꞌo ta umak.

6 Anyone in Him abiding not sins; anyone who is sinning not has seen Him nor has he known Him.

Ri winaq ri kꞌo pa Cristo man are ta karilij ubꞌanik ri mak. Ri winaq ri are karilij ubꞌanik mak man rilom taj xuqujeꞌ man retaꞌmam ta uwach ri Cristo.

7 (little children, *NK(o)*) no one should lead astray you; who are practicing righteousness righteous is even as He righteous is.

Loqꞌalaj taq walkꞌwaꞌl, kꞌo mixsubꞌuwik. Ri winaq ri kubꞌan ri sukꞌal, sukꞌ winaq riꞌ, jetaq ri Cristo.

8 The [one] practicing sin of the devil is, because from [the] beginning the devil has been sinning. For this [reason] was revealed the Son of God so that He may destroy the works of the devil.

Ri winaq ri are karilij ubꞌanik mak rech ri Itzel riꞌ, jeriꞌ rumal ri Itzel xaq are wi rilim loq ubꞌanik ri mak pa ri majibꞌal rech ronojel. Rumal riꞌ ri Cristo xtaq loq chutukixik ri uchak ri Itzel.

9 Anyone who born of God sin not practices, because seed of Him in him abides; and not he is able to continue sinning, because of God he has been born.

Ri xalax chi junmul pa Cristo man are ta karilij ubꞌanik riꞌ ri mak, jeriꞌ rumal xya jun ijaꞌ rech ri Dios pa ri ukꞌaslemal rech man are ta karilij ubꞌanik ri mak.

10 Through this manifest are the children of God and the children of the devil. Anyone not practicing righteousness not is of God, and also the [one] not loving the brother of him;

Jeriꞌ kaqꞌalajinik jachin ri ralkꞌwaꞌl ri Dios xuqujeꞌ jachin ri ralkꞌwaꞌl ri Itzel. Ri man kubꞌan ta ri sukꞌal xuqujeꞌ man kuloqꞌaj taj ri rachalal man ralkꞌwaꞌl ta ri Dios riꞌ.

11 For this is the message that you have heard from [the] beginning that we may love one another;

Ri utz laj tzij ri itatabꞌem loq pa ri majibꞌal rech ronojel, are chi kaqaloqꞌaj qibꞌ chqajujunal.

12 not even as Cain [who] of the evil [one] was and he slew the brother of him; And because of what he slayed him? Because the works of him evil were, those however of the brother of him righteous.

Man kaqesaj taj uwach ri Caín, are waꞌ ri xuya bꞌe xok ri Itzel che rumal riꞌ xukamisaj ri rachalal Abel. ¿Jas che jewaꞌ xubꞌano? Jeriꞌ xubꞌano rumal are xrilij ubꞌanik itzel taq chak, are kꞌu ri uchak ri rachalal sibꞌalaj utz.

13 (And *n*) not do be surprised, brothers (of mine *K*) if hates you the world.

Wachalal, man kixmayjan taj we kixketzelaj ri winaq ri man e kojonelabꞌ taj.

14 We ourselves know that we have passed from death to life, because we love [our] brothers; The [one] not loving (the brother *K*) abides in death.

Qetaꞌm uj chi uj kaminaq kan nabꞌe xa kꞌu xya chi na qakꞌaslemal rumal riꞌ keꞌqaloqꞌaj ri e qachalal. Ri winaq ri man kaloqꞌan taj rech ri kamikal riꞌ.

15 Everyone who is hating the brother of him a murderer is; and you know that any murderer not has life eternal in (him *NK(o)*) abiding. (aiōnios g166)

Ri karetzelaj ri rachalal jun kamisanel riꞌ, iwetaꞌm kꞌut chi maj jun kamisanel kakwinik kok pa ri jun alik kꞌaslemal. (aiōnios g166)

16 By this we have known love because He for us the life of Him laid down; and we ourselves ought for [our] brothers [our] lives (to lay down. *N(k)O*)

Ri uj qetaꞌm jas ubꞌanik ri loqꞌanik are chi ri Jesucristo xuya ri ukꞌaslemal rumal qe. Je xuqujeꞌ rajawaxik kaqabꞌan uj, rajawaxik kaqaya ri qakꞌaslemal pa kiwiꞌ ri e qachalal.

17 Who[ever] now maybe may have the goods of the world and may see the brother of him need having and he may close up the heart of him from him, how the love of God abides in him?

We kꞌo jun chiꞌwe sibꞌalaj qꞌinom karil kꞌu ri rachalal chi kajawataj ujastaq man kel ta kꞌu ukꞌuꞌx che, man kakwin ta riꞌ kubꞌij chi kꞌo ri loqꞌanik rech ri Dios pa ranimaꞌ.

18 Little children (of mine *K*) not we may love in word nor in tongue but in action and in truth.

Loqꞌalaj taq walkꞌwaꞌl, man xaq xwi ta kaqabꞌij rukꞌ ri qachiꞌ chi ku qas qakꞌutu rukꞌ ri kaqabꞌano.

19 And by this (we will know *N(k)O*) that of the truth we are and before Him we will assure (heart *N(k)O*) of us,

Rukꞌ waꞌ qas kaqetaꞌmaj chi uj kꞌo pa ri qas tzij xuqujeꞌ kaqanaꞌo chi utz qaꞌnik cho ri Dios.

20 that if shall condemn [us] our heart, that greater than is the God of the heart of us and He knows all things.

Pune ri qanimaꞌ man kuqꞌat ta tzij pa qawiꞌ, ri Dios retaꞌm ronojel, areꞌ nim choch ri qanimaꞌ.

21 Beloved, if the heart of us not shall condemn (us *ko*) confidence we have toward God,

Loqꞌalaj taq qachalal, we kaqanaꞌo chi ri qanimaꞌ man kuqꞌat ta tzij pa qawiꞌ rumal ri xqabꞌano, kꞌo ukuꞌlibꞌal qakꞌuꞌx riꞌ che ri Dios.

22 and whatever (maybe *NK(o)*) we shall ask we receive (from *N(k)O*) Him, because the commandments of Him we keep and the [things] pleasing before Him we do.

Xuqujeꞌ kaqakꞌamawaꞌj na ronojel ri kaqata che ri Dios, jeriꞌ rumal kaqanimaj ri utaqanik xuqujeꞌ kaqabꞌan ri taqalik choch ri Dios.

23 And this is the commandment of Him that (we may believe *NK(o)*) in the name of the Son of Him Jesus Christ and we may love one another even as He gave [the] commandment to us.

Ri utaqanik ri Dios are chi kujkojon che ri Jesucristo, ri ukꞌojol, xuqujeꞌ kaqaloqꞌaj qibꞌ chiqajujunal, rumal jeriꞌ karaj kaqabꞌano.

24 And the [one] keeping the commandments of Him in Him abides, and He in him. And by this we know that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom to us He has given.

Ri kunimaj ri uꞌtaqanik ri Dios, qas kꞌo riꞌ pa Dios, xuqujeꞌ ri Dios kꞌo pa ranimaꞌ ri winaq riꞌ. Are ri Uxlabꞌixel ri xuya chaqe kujtoꞌwik chi retaꞌmaxik chi qas kꞌo ri Dios pa qanimaꞌ.
