< 2 Corinthians 6 >

1 As God's fellow workers, we urge you not to receive the grace of God in vain.
Ri uj ri kujtobꞌan rukꞌ ri Dios, kaqata chiꞌwe chi man kiwil ta ri utoqꞌobꞌ ri Dios jacha jun jastaq ri maj kutayij.
2 For he says, “At a favorable time I listened to yoʋ, and in a day of salvation I helped yoʋ.” Behold, now is the favorable time; now is the day of salvation.
Rumal cher ri Tzꞌibꞌatalik kubꞌij: Xatintatabꞌej pa ri qꞌij ri xtaqiꞌ chawe, xuqujeꞌ xatintoꞌo pa ri qꞌij ri xajawataj chawe. Are waꞌ ri uqꞌijal ri Dios; are waꞌ ri qꞌij rech kolotajem.
3 We are putting no obstacle in anyone's way, so that our ministry may not be discredited.
Ri uj kꞌut man uj topibꞌal aqanaj taj chike nikꞌaj chik, rech man kayoqꞌ ta ri qachak.
4 Rather, as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: in great endurance, in afflictions, in hardships, in distresses,
Xane kaqabꞌan ri qachak rukꞌ utzilal rumal cher uj patanil rech ri Dios pa taq ri kꞌaxal, pa ri qarajawaxik, xuqujeꞌ pa ri kꞌaxkꞌolal.
5 in beatings, in imprisonments, in riots, in labors, in sleepless nights, in hunger,
Uj tzꞌapital pa cheꞌ, uj raputalik, bꞌantal kꞌax chaqe chikixoꞌl e kꞌi winaq, sibꞌalaj elinaq qawaram, kꞌi mul man ujwaꞌqinaq taj.
6 in purity, in knowledge, in patience, in kindness, in the Holy Spirit, in genuine love,
Kujpatanijik rukꞌ chꞌajchꞌojil, rukꞌ etaꞌmabꞌal, rukꞌ utzilal, pa ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel xuqujeꞌ pa ri qas tzij loqꞌanik.
7 in the word of truth, in the power of God; with weapons of righteousness for the right hand and the left,
Rukꞌ tzij rech ri qas tzij xuqujeꞌ rukꞌ ri ukwinem ri Dios, rukꞌ chꞌoꞌjibꞌal rech sukꞌal, toꞌbꞌal qibꞌ xuqujeꞌ rech chꞌoꞌj.
8 through glory and dishonor, through bad report and good report; regarded as deceivers, and yet true;
Kꞌo mul kaya qaqꞌij, kꞌo mul kesax qakꞌixibꞌal, kabꞌan kꞌax chaqe utz o man utz ta kabꞌan chiqatzijoxik; kabꞌix chaqe chi uj subꞌunelabꞌ, xa kꞌu qas tzij ri kaqabꞌij.
9 as unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and behold, we live; as punished, and yet not put to death;
Pune etaꞌmatal qawach, kakibꞌan kꞌu ri winaq chi man ketaꞌm ta qawach. Jubꞌiqꞌ karaj kujkamik, uj kꞌas kꞌu na, ujchꞌaytalik, man uj kaminaq ta kꞌut.
10 as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, yet possessing everything.
Kujkiꞌkotik pune kujbꞌisonik kabꞌantajik; uj mebꞌaꞌ kabꞌantajik, qabꞌanom kꞌu qꞌinomabꞌ chike sibꞌalaj e kꞌi. Maj kꞌo qukꞌ kabꞌantajik, kꞌo kꞌu ronojel uwach qukꞌ.
11 O Corinthians, we have spoken freely to you; our hearts have been opened wide.
Qachalal aꞌj Corinto, qas xujtzijon iwukꞌ rukꞌ ronojel qanimaꞌ, je ta ne ri qas xqajaq ri qanimaꞌ chiꞌwach.
12 You are not restricted by us, but by your own affections.
Man xqakꞌekꞌej ta ri qaloqꞌanik chiꞌwe, pune ix ikꞌekꞌem ri iloqꞌanik chaqe uj.
13 Now in return—I am speaking as I would to my own children—open your hearts to us.
Rech kꞌu je kujnoꞌjinik qonojel, (kixinchꞌabꞌej jer ta ne ix kꞌo walkꞌwaꞌl) chixloqꞌanoq jetaq ri kujloqꞌan uj.
14 Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership is there between righteousness and lawlessness? What fellowship does light have with darkness?
Mibꞌan iwachiꞌl chike ri man e kojonelabꞌ taj. ¿La karachiꞌlaj kꞌu ribꞌ ri sukꞌal rukꞌ ri etzelal? O ¿la kꞌo kꞌu uriqoj ibꞌ riꞌ ri tunal ri katunanik rukꞌ ri qꞌequꞌmal?
15 What harmony does Christ have with Belial? What portion does a believer have with an unbeliever?
¿La kꞌo kꞌu uriqoj ibꞌ ri Cristo rukꞌ ri Itzel? ¿La kꞌo jun jas ke junam ri kojonel rukꞌ ri man kojonel taj?
16 And what agreement does the temple of God have with idols? For you are the temple of the living God, just as God said, “I will dwell in them and walk among them. I will be their God, and they will be my people.
¿La kꞌo jun jastaq kꞌo pa ri rachoch ri Dios xuqujeꞌ kꞌo pa ri kachoch ri e tyox ri e bꞌantalik? Uj riꞌ ri uj rachoch ri kꞌaslik Dios. Jacha ri ubꞌim Areꞌ: Kinkꞌojiꞌ na xuqujeꞌ kinbꞌin na kukꞌ. In kinux na kiDios, aꞌreꞌ kuꞌx na e nutinimit.
17 Therefore, come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you.
Kꞌa te riꞌ xubꞌij chi ri Ajawxel: Chixel loq chikixoꞌl, chiqꞌata iwibꞌ chike. Man kichap taj jun chꞌuluj laj jastaq, rech kixinkꞌamawaꞌj na.
18 I will be a father to you, and you will be sons and daughters to me, says the Lord Almighty.”
In kinux na iTat, ri ix kixux na nukꞌojol, numiꞌal, kacha ri Ajawxel ri kakwin chubꞌanik ronojel jastaq.
