< Mark 12 >
1 Then He began to speak to them in figurative language. "There was once a man," He said, "who planted a vineyard, fenced it round, dug a pit for the wine-tank, and built a strong lodge. Then he let the place to vine-dressers and went abroad.
Ri Jesús xuchapleꞌj tzijonem kukꞌ ri winaq rukꞌ kꞌambꞌejabꞌal taq noꞌj, xubꞌij: Kꞌo jun achi xutik nikꞌaj uvas. Xukoralij rij, xukꞌot jun nimalaj pichꞌbꞌal uvas, kꞌa te riꞌ xuyak jun nimalaj ja jawjeꞌ kakꞌojiꞌ wi ri chajinel. Xuya pa qajik chike e nikꞌaj ajchakibꞌ, kꞌa te riꞌ xeꞌ pa jun utaqkil.
2 At vintage-time he sent one of his servants to receive from the vine-dressers a share of the grapes.
Are xopan ri qꞌij rech yakoj, xutaq bꞌik jun rajchak kukꞌ ri ajchakibꞌ chutoqꞌixik nikꞌaj rech ri yakoj.
3 But they seized him, beat him cruelly and sent him away empty-handed.
Ri ajchakibꞌ xkichap ri taqoꞌn, xkichꞌayo, maj xkiya bꞌik che, xkitaq bꞌik cho ja.
4 Again he sent to them another servant: and as for him, they wounded him in the head and treated him shamefully.
Ri ajchoqꞌe ri ulew xutaq chi bꞌik jun rajchak. Ri ajchakibꞌ xkibꞌan kꞌax che xkiya pa ukꞌixibꞌal xuqujeꞌ xkiraqij loq ri ujolom.
5 Yet a third he sent, and him they killed. And he sent many besides, and them also they ill-treated, beating some and killing others.
Xutaq chi kꞌu bꞌi jun ajchak, ri ajchakibꞌ kꞌut xkikamisaj loq we ajchak riꞌ. E kꞌi xuꞌtaq chi na bꞌik, e kꞌo xechꞌay loq chike, nikꞌaj chik xekamisax loq.
6 He had still one left whom he could send, a dearly-loved son: him last of all he sent, saying, "'They will treat my son with respect.'
Kꞌisbꞌal rech, ri ajchoqꞌe ri ulew xutaq bꞌik ri xa jun ukꞌojol ri sibꞌalaj kuloqꞌaj, xubꞌij: “Kakinimaj waꞌ we nukꞌojol.”
7 "But those men--the vine-dressers--said to one another, "'Here is the heir: come, let us kill him, and then the property will one day be ours.'
Ri ajchakibꞌ are xkil ri ukꞌojol ri ajchoqꞌe ri ulew xkibꞌij chibꞌil taq kibꞌ: “Are waꞌ ri kechꞌabꞌen kanoq ri ulew, qakamisaj, rech kaqechabej kanoq ri ulew.”
8 "So they took him and killed him, and flung his body outside the vineyard.
Are xopanik ri kꞌojolaxel, xkichapo, xkikamisaj, xkesaj bꞌik pa ri ulew.
9 What, therefore, will the owner of the vineyard do?" "He will come and put the vine-dressers to death," they said; "and will give the vineyard to others."
¿Jas kꞌu kubꞌan riꞌ ri ajchoqꞌe ri ulew are katzalij loq? Kuꞌkamisaj na ri ajchakibꞌ xuqujeꞌ kuya na ri ulew tikbꞌal uvas chike nikꞌaj chik.
10 "Have you not read even this passage," He added, "'The stone which the builders rejected has become the Cornerstone:
¿La man isikꞌim ri tzꞌibꞌatalik ri kubꞌij? Ri abꞌaj ri xketzelaj ri e yakol taq jaꞌ xuxik ri abꞌaj ri qas kꞌo kutayij.
11 this Cornerstone came from the Lord, and is wonderful in our esteem?'"
Are waꞌ ri uchak ri Ajawxel, ri kuyak qamayijanik.
12 And they kept looking out for an opportunity to seize Him, but were afraid of the people; for they saw that in this parable He had referred to them. So they left Him and went away.
Ri kinimaꞌqil ri winaq aꞌj Israel are xkichꞌobꞌo chi are katzijox kij pa ri kꞌambꞌejabꞌal noꞌj, xkaj xkichap ri Jesús. Man xkibꞌan ta kꞌut rumal cher kakixiꞌj kibꞌ chikiwach ri e winaq, jeriꞌ xkitzaq kanoq xebꞌek.
13 Their next step was to send to Him some of the Pharisees and of Herod's partisans to entrap Him in conversation.
Kꞌa te riꞌ xeꞌkitaq bꞌik e jujun fariseos e kachiꞌl e jujun herodianos rukꞌ ri Jesús rech kakikoj jun kꞌaꞌmabꞌal che rukꞌ ri tzij ri tajin kubꞌij.
14 So they came to Him. "Rabbi," they said, "we know that you are a truthful man and you do not fear any one; for you do not recognize human distinctions, but teach God's way truly. Is it allowable to pay poll-tax to Caesar, or not?
Are xoꞌpanik xkibꞌij che: Ajtij, qetaꞌm chi lal jun tzꞌaqat achi. Man kaya ta la bꞌe chi jun winaq chik kabꞌin che la ri rajawaxik kabꞌan la, rumal man are ta kil la ri kekaꞌy ri winaq. Xane qas are kakꞌut la ri utz laj bꞌe ri keꞌ rukꞌ ri Dios, bꞌij la chaqe ¿la yaꞌtalik katoj che ri César ri alkabal o man yaꞌtal taj?
15 Shall we pay, or shall we refuse to pay?" But He, knowing their hypocrisy, replied, "Why try to ensnare me? Bring me a shilling for me to look at."
¿La choqꞌaqꞌ kaqatojo o man choqꞌaqꞌ taj? Ri Jesús retaꞌm jas che tajin kakibꞌij che we riꞌ, xubꞌij chike: ¿Jas che kikoj kꞌaꞌmabꞌal pa chwe? Chikꞌama loq jun pwaq rech Roma, rech kaqilo.
16 They brought one; and He asked them, "Whose is this likeness and this inscription?" "Caesar's," they replied.
Xkikꞌam bꞌik ri pwaq choch ri Jesús, xubꞌij chike: ¿Jachin ajchoqꞌe we tzꞌibꞌ riꞌ le kꞌo choch xuqujeꞌ le palajaj? Rech ri César, xecha ri winaq.
17 "What is Caesar's," replied Jesus, "pay to Caesar--and what is God's, pay to God." And they wondered exceedingly at Him.
Ri Jesús xubꞌij: Chiya che ri César ri rech ri César, xuqujeꞌ chiya che ri Dios ri rech ri Dios. Konojel ri winaq xemayijanik che ri xubꞌij ri Jesús.
18 Then came to Him a party of Sadducees, a sect which denies that there is any Resurrection; and they proceeded to question Him.
Are kꞌu ri saduceos ri man kakikoj taj chi kꞌo kꞌastajibꞌal wach xoꞌpan rukꞌ ri Jesús, xeꞌkibꞌij che:
19 "Rabbi," they said, "Moses made it a law for us: 'If a man's brother should die and leave a wife, but no child, the man shall marry the widow and raise up a family for his brother.'
Ajtij, ri Moisés xukꞌut chiqawach pa ri wuj ri xutzꞌibꞌaj chi are kakam jun achi xuqujeꞌ kakanaj kanoq ri rixoqil maj ral. Choqꞌaqꞌ wi ri rachalal ri achi ri xkamik, kakꞌuliꞌk rukꞌ ri ixoq ri xkanaj kanoq rech kekꞌojiꞌk rijaꞌl ri rachalal ri xkamik.
20 There were once seven brothers, the eldest of whom married a wife, but at his death left no family.
E kꞌo kꞌu wuqubꞌ alaxik. Ri nabꞌe xkꞌuliꞌk, maj e ralkꞌwaꞌl xekanaj kanoq are xkamik.
21 The second married her, and died, leaving no family; and the third did the same.
Ri ukabꞌ xkꞌuliꞌk rukꞌ ri malkaꞌn ixoq, xkam xuqujeꞌ bꞌik maj e ralkꞌwaꞌl xekanaj kanoq, je xubꞌan xuqujeꞌ ri urox.
22 And so did the rest of the seven, all dying childless. Finally the woman also died.
Je xkꞌulmataj kukꞌ konojel kꞌa xkam na bꞌik ri kꞌisbꞌal chike ri wuqubꞌ, kꞌisbꞌal rech, xkam xuqujeꞌ bꞌik ri ixoq.
23 At the Resurrection whose wife will she be? For they all seven married her."
Pa ri kꞌastajibꞌal wach, ¿jachin chike ri achyabꞌ qas rachajil ri ixoq, rumal konojel xekꞌuliꞌ rukꞌ?
24 "Is not this the cause of your error," replied Jesus--"your ignorance alike of the Scriptures and of the power of God?
Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: Ri ix, ix sachinaq, xa man iwetaꞌm ta riꞌ ri tzꞌibꞌatalik xuqujeꞌ man iwetaꞌm taj ri utzij ri Dios xuqujeꞌ ri ukwinem.
25 For when they have risen from among the dead, men do not marry and women are not given in marriage, but they are as angels are in Heaven.
Are kekꞌastaj ri kaminaqibꞌ, man kekꞌuliꞌ taj xuqujeꞌ man keya taj pa kꞌulanem, xane je kuꞌx ri angelibꞌ ri e kꞌo pa ri kaj.
26 But as to the dead, that they rise to life, have you never read in the Book of Moses, in the passage about the Bush, how God said to him, 'I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?'
Are kꞌu ri kꞌastajibꞌal wach kech ri kaminaqibꞌ, ¿la man isikꞌim ri uwuj ri Moisés, jawjeꞌ ri kutzijoj wi rij ri kꞌix, ri Dios xubꞌij che: In in uDios ri Abraham, ri Isaac, xuqujeꞌ ri Jacob?
27 He is not the God of dead, but of living men. You are in grave error."
Ri Dios man kiDios ta kaminaqibꞌ xane kiDios e kꞌaslik winaq. Ri ix sibꞌalaj ix sachinaq.
28 Then one of the Scribes, who had heard them disputing and well knew that Jesus had given them an answer to the point, and a forcible one, came forward and asked Him, "Which is the chief of all the Commandments?"
Jun chike ri aꞌjtijabꞌ rech ri taqanik xqebꞌ rukꞌ ri Jesús, are xuto tajin ketzijonik xuqujeꞌ xuta ri xubꞌij ri Jesús, xuta che: ¿Jachin chike ri taqanik ri nim uqꞌij chike konojel?
29 "The chief Commandment," replied Jesus, "is this: 'Hear, O Israel! The Lord our God is one Lord;
Ri Jesús xubꞌij: Ri nim taqanik chike konojel are we jun riꞌ: Winaq aꞌj Israel, chitatabꞌej chi ri Dios are xa jun Ajawxel.
30 and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, thy whole soul, thy whole mind, and thy whole strength.'
Chaloqꞌaj ri awAjaw Dios rukꞌ ronojel awanimaꞌ, rukꞌ ronojel akꞌuꞌx, xuqujeꞌ rukꞌ ronojel achuqꞌabꞌ. Are wa riꞌ taqanik ri sibꞌalaj nim uqꞌij chike konojel.
31 "The second is this: 'Thou shalt love thy fellow man as thou lovest thyself.' "Other Commandment greater than these there is none."
Ri ukabꞌ taqanik are we jun riꞌ: Chaloqꞌaj ri ajil tzꞌaqat, jetaq ri kabꞌan chuloqꞌaxik awibꞌ at.
32 So the Scribe said to Him, "Rightly, in very truth, Rabbi, have you said that He stands alone, and there is none but He;
Utz ri xbꞌan la chubꞌixik, ri achi xubꞌij: Ajtij, qas tzij ri xbꞌij la, ri Dios xa jun, man kꞌo ta chi jun Dios xaq xwi ri areꞌ.
33 and To love Him with all one's heart, with all one's understanding, and with all one's strength, and to love one's fellow man no less than oneself, is far better than all our whole burnt-offerings and sacrifices."
Uloqꞌaxik ri Dios rukꞌ ronojel animaꞌaj, rukꞌ ronojel kuꞌx xuqujeꞌ rukꞌ ronojel chuqꞌabꞌ. Xuqujeꞌ uloqꞌaxik ri kꞌulja jetaq kubꞌan chuloqꞌaxik ribꞌ jun, kꞌo na choch ri utzujik poron sipanik xuqujeꞌ ri utzujik ri kaminaq taq awaj choch ri Dios.
34 Perceiving that the Scribe had answered wisely Jesus said to him, "You are not far from the Kingdom of God." No one from that time forward ventured to put any question to Him.
Ri Jesús are xrilo chi ri achi xutzalij uwach ri xubꞌij ri Jesús rukꞌ etaꞌmanik xubꞌij che: Naqaj at kꞌo wi che ri ajawarem rech ri Dios. Kꞌa te riꞌ man kꞌo ta chik jun winaq xubꞌij jun jastaq che ri Jesús.
35 But, while teaching in the Temple, Jesus asked, "How is it the Scribes say that the Christ is a son of David?
Are tajin kuya kꞌutuꞌn ri Jesús pa ri Templo, xubꞌij chike ri winaq: ¿Jas che kakibꞌij ri aꞌjtijabꞌ rech ri taqanik chi ri Cristo ukꞌojol ri David?
36 David himself said, taught by the Holy Spirit, "'The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at My right hand, until I have made thy foes a footstool under thy feet.'
Ri David nojinaq che ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel che are xubꞌij: Ri Ajawxel xubꞌij che ri wAjaw: Chattꞌuyul pa ri nuwiqiqꞌabꞌ, kꞌa kinya na pa awaqan konojel ri akꞌulel.
37 "David himself calls Him 'Lord:' how then can He be his son?" And the mass of people found pleasure in listening to Jesus.
Ri David we kubꞌij Ajawxel che ri Cristo, ¿jas ta kꞌu che riꞌ ukꞌojol? Ri winaq sibꞌalaj utz xkibꞌan chutatabꞌexik ri xubꞌij ri Jesús.
38 Moreover in the course of His teaching He said, "Be on your guard against the Scribes who like to walk about in long robes and to be bowed to in places of public resort,
Ri Jesús pa ri ukꞌutuꞌn xubꞌij: Chichajij iwibꞌ chike ri aꞌjtijabꞌ rech ri taqanik. Utz kakinaꞌo kewaꞌkat pa taq ri kꞌayibꞌal kikojom ri katzꞌyaq ri karepqꞌunik, xuqujeꞌ utz kakinaꞌo kaya rutzil kiwach.
39 and to occupy the best seats in the synagogues and at dinner parties,
Utz kakinaꞌo ketꞌuyiꞌk pa taq ri nabꞌe taq tꞌuyulibꞌal pa ri Sinagoga, xuqujeꞌ are kakichaꞌ ri tꞌuyulibꞌal ri nim ubꞌantajik pa taq ri nimaqꞌij ri kesikꞌix wi.
40 and who swallow up the property of widows and then mask their wickedness by making long prayers: these men will receive far heavier punishment."
Kakimaj ri kijastaq ri e malkaꞌnibꞌ taq ixoqibꞌ xuqujeꞌ kakibꞌan chꞌawem rech ketataj kumal nikꞌaj winaq chik. Nimalaj ri kꞌaxkꞌolal ri kape pa kiwiꞌ we achyabꞌ riꞌ kꞌo na chikiwach nikꞌaj chik.
41 Having taken a seat opposite the Treasury, He observed how the people were dropping money into the Treasury, and that many of the wealthy threw in large sums.
Ri Jesús xtꞌuyiꞌk chunaqaj ri kꞌolibꞌal rech ri sipanik, xuchapleꞌj kikaꞌyexik ri winaq are kakiya ri kisipanik pa ri kꞌolibꞌal rech, ri kꞌo pa ri Templo. Sibꞌalaj e kꞌi qꞌinomabꞌ xkiya nimaꞌq taq pwaq.
42 But there came one poor widow and dropped in two farthings, equal in value to a halfpenny.
Xopan kꞌut jun malkaꞌn ixoq, xuꞌya kanoq kebꞌ qꞌana taq pwaq ri man nim taj kilitajik.
43 So He called His disciples to Him and said, "In solemn truth I tell you that this widow, poor as she is, has thrown in more than all the other contributors to the Treasury;
Ri Jesús xusikꞌij ri utijoxelabꞌ, xubꞌij chike: Qas tzij kinbꞌij chiꞌwe, we malkaꞌn ixoq riꞌ are nim xuya chikiwach konojel.
44 for they have all contributed out of what they could well spare, but she out of her need has thrown in all she possessed--all she had to live on."
We nikꞌaj winaq xkiya ri jubꞌiqꞌ che ri nim ri kꞌo kukꞌ, are kꞌu we ixoq riꞌ xuya ronojel ri kꞌo rukꞌ.
