< Mark 1 >

1 The beginning of the Good News of Jesus Christ the Son of God.
Jewaꞌ xkꞌulmatajik are xchapleꞌtaj loq utzijoxik ri utz laj tzij rech ri Jesucristo, ukꞌojol ri Dios.
2 As it is written in Isaiah the Prophet, "See, I am sending My messenger before Thee, Who will prepare Thy way";
Xkꞌulmatajik jetaq ri utzꞌibꞌam loq ri qꞌalajisal rech ri utzij ri Dios Isaías, are xubꞌij: Kintaq na bꞌik ri nutaqoꞌn kanabꞌej na chawach, rech kusukꞌumaj apanoq ri abꞌe,
3 "The voice of one crying aloud: 'In the Desert prepare a road for the Lord: Make His highways straight.'"
Uchꞌabꞌal jun winaq ri kasikꞌinik pa ri katzꞌinow ulew, kubꞌij: Chisukꞌumaj ri ubꞌe ri Ajawxel, sukꞌum chibꞌana che ri ubꞌe.
4 So John the Baptizer came, and was in the Desert proclaiming a baptism of the penitent for forgiveness of sins.
Jeriꞌ xubꞌan ri Juan are xutzijoj ri qasanaꞌ rech kꞌexbꞌal kꞌuꞌx rech kuybꞌal mak pa ri katzꞌinow ulew.
5 There went out to him people of all classes from Judaea, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem of all ranks, and were baptized by him in the river Jordan, making open confession of their sins.
Konojel ri winaq aꞌj Judea, aꞌj Jerusalén xoꞌpan rukꞌ. Ri Juan xubꞌan kiqasanaꞌ ri winaq pa ri nimaꞌ Jordán, are xtzujutaj kibꞌ che ri kimak.
6 As for John, his garment was of camel's hair, and he wore a loincloth of leather; and his food was locusts and wild honey.
Ri ratzꞌyaq ri Juan che rismal kamey bꞌantal wi, ri jatꞌibꞌal upam jun tzꞌuꞌm, are xutij che uwa ri e sakꞌ rachiꞌl ri juyubꞌil kabꞌ.
7 His announcement was, "There is One coming after me mightier than I--One whose sandal-strap I am unworthy to stoop down and unfasten.
Jewaꞌ xubꞌij are xutzijoj ri utzij ri Dios: Kape chi na jun ri sibꞌalaj kꞌo ukwinem chinuwach in, man taqal ta chwe kinkir ri uxajabꞌ.
8 I have baptized you with water, but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit."
In xinbꞌan iqasanaꞌ rukꞌ jaꞌ, are kꞌu ri kape na kubꞌan na iqasanaꞌ pa ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel.
9 At that time Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan;
Pa taq ri qꞌij riꞌ xopan ri Jesús, upetik pa Nazaret rech Galilea, xbꞌan kan uqasanaꞌ rumal ri Juan pa ri nimaꞌ Jordán.
10 and immediately on His coming up out of the water He saw an opening in the sky, and the Spirit like a dove coming down to Him;
Ri Jesús are xel loq pa ri nimaꞌ, xril ri kaj xjaqajobꞌik, xqaj loq ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel jer xubꞌan jun palomax.
11 and a voice came from the sky, saying, "Thou art My Son dearly loved: in Thee is My delight."
Xtataj xuqujeꞌ jun chꞌabꞌal upetik pa ri kaj xubꞌij: At, at loqꞌalaj nukꞌojol, kakiꞌkot na nukꞌuꞌx awukꞌ.
12 At once the Spirit impelled Him to go out into the Desert,
Kꞌa te riꞌ xkꞌam bꞌik ri Jesús rumal ri Uxlabꞌixel pa ri katzꞌinow ulew.
13 where He remained for forty days, tempted by Satan; and He was among the wild beasts, but the angels waited upon Him.
Kawinaq qꞌij xkꞌojiꞌk chilaꞌ chikixoꞌl juyubꞌil taq aꞌwaj, xkoj kꞌaꞌmabꞌal pa ri ubꞌe rumal ri Itzel rech kaqaj pa mak. Xepe kꞌu ri angelibꞌ chupatanixik.
14 Then, after John had been thrown into prison, Jesus came into Galilee proclaiming God's Good News.
Are xokisataj ri Juan pa cheꞌ, ri Jesús xeꞌ chutzijoxik ri utz laj utzij ri Dios pa Galilea.
15 "The time has fully come," He said, "and the Kingdom of God is close at hand: repent, and believe this Good News.
Xubꞌij: Xopan ri qꞌij ri utzujum loq ri Dios, xnaqajir loq ri rajawarem, chikꞌexa ikꞌuꞌx, chikojo ri utz laj tzij.
16 One day, passing along the shore of the Lake of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew, Simon's brother, throwing their nets in the Lake; for they were fisherman.
Are xikꞌow bꞌik ri Jesús chuchiꞌ ri cho pa Galilea, xeꞌril ri Simón rachiꞌl ri Andrés ri rachalal, tajin kakikꞌyaq ri kikꞌat pa ri cho, rumal cher e chapal taq kar.
17 "Come and follow me," said Jesus, "and I will make you fishers for men."
Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: Chixanloq, chinitereneꞌj, kinbꞌan na chiꞌwe chikikꞌam loq achyabꞌ wukꞌ.
18 At once they left their nets and followed Him.
Aninaq xkitzaq kanoq ri kikꞌat, xeteriꞌ bꞌik chirij ri Jesús.
19 Going on a little further He saw James the son of Zabdi and his brother John: they also were in the boat mending the nets, and He immediately called them.
Ri Jesús are bꞌininaq chi apanoq jubꞌiqꞌ xeꞌril ri Jacobo rachiꞌl ri Juan e ralkꞌwaꞌl ri Zebedeo, e kꞌo apanoq pa ri jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal puꞌwiꞌ ri jaꞌ, tajin kakisalabꞌaj ri kikꞌat puꞌwiꞌ ri jaꞌ.
20 They therefore left their father Zabdi in the boat with the hired men, and went and followed Him.
Ri Jesús xuꞌsikꞌij apanoq ri achyabꞌ, ri achyabꞌ xkiya kan ri kitat Zebedeo kukꞌ ri e kajchakibꞌ pa ri jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal, kꞌa te riꞌ xebꞌe rukꞌ ri Jesús.
21 So they came to Capernaum, and on the next Sabbath He went to the synagogue and began to teach.
Are xoꞌpan pa ri tinimit Capernaúm, pa ri qꞌij rech uxlanem, ri Jesús xok bꞌik pa ri Sinagoga, xuchapleꞌj uyaꞌik kꞌutuꞌn.
22 The people listened with amazement to His teaching--for there was authority about it: it was very different from that of the Scribes--
Ri winaq kemayijan che taq ri ukꞌutuꞌn, rumal cher man kuxiꞌj ta ribꞌ chukꞌutik. Man je ta kubꞌano jetaq kakibꞌan ri aꞌjtijabꞌ rech ri taqanik.
23 when all at once, there in their synagogue, a man under the power of a foul spirit screamed out:
Xaq kꞌa teꞌ xwaꞌjil jun achi pa ri Sinagoga ri kꞌo jun itzel uxlabꞌal che, xuraq uchiꞌ xubꞌij:
24 "What have you to do with us, Jesus the Nazarene? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are--God's Holy One."
Jesús aj Nazaret, ¿jas che kanim awibꞌ chiqaxoꞌl? ¿La xa at petinaq chiqatukixik? In wetaꞌm at jachinaq. At riꞌ ri at chaꞌtal rumal ri Dios.
25 But Jesus reprimanded him, saying, "Silence! come out of him."
Ri Jesús xubꞌij che: Chatuxlanoq, chatel bꞌik che we achi riꞌ.
26 So the foul spirit, after throwing the man into convulsions, came out of him with a loud cry.
Ri itzel uxlabꞌal xutzaq ri achi pa ri ulew rukꞌ chuqꞌabꞌ, kꞌa te riꞌ xuraqaqej uchiꞌ, xel bꞌik che ri achi.
27 And all were amazed and awe-struck, so they began to ask one another, "What does this mean? Here is a new sort of teaching--and a tone of authority! And even to foul spirits he issues orders and they obey him!"
Konojel ri winaq xkixiꞌj kibꞌ, kakitatabꞌela chibꞌil taq kibꞌ: ¿Jas waꞌ we riꞌ? ¡Jun kꞌakꞌ kꞌutuꞌn waꞌ rumal laꞌ qas rukꞌ chuqꞌabꞌ kubꞌano! Pune aꞌre itzel taq uxlabꞌal keniman che.
28 And His fame spread at once everywhere in all that part of Galilee.
Rumal waꞌ aninaq xel utzijoxik ri Jesús pa ronojel Galilea.
29 Then on leaving the synagogue they came at once, with James and John, to the house of Simon and Andrew.
Ri Jesús are xeꞌl bꞌik pa ri Sinagoga e rachiꞌl ri Jacobo xuqujeꞌ ri Juan xebꞌe cho rachoch ri Simón xuqujeꞌ ri Andrés.
30 Now Simon's mother-in-law was ill in bed with a fever, and without delay they informed Him about her.
Aninaq xkibꞌij che ri Jesús chi ri ujiꞌ ixoq ri Simón yawabꞌ, qꞌoyol pa ri usok, kꞌo qꞌaqꞌ che.
31 So He went to her, and taking her hand He raised her to her feet: the fever left her, and she began to wait upon them.
Ri Jesús xqebꞌ rukꞌ ri ixoq, xuchap che ri uqꞌabꞌ, xutoꞌo xwaꞌjilik. Aninaq kꞌut xel bꞌik ri qꞌaqꞌ che ri ixoq. Aninaq xwaꞌjilik xuchapleꞌj kipatanixik.
32 When it was evening, after sunset people came bringing Him all who were sick and the demoniacs;
Are xqaj ri qꞌij, ri winaq xeꞌkikꞌam bꞌik ri e yawabꞌibꞌ xuqujeꞌ ri e kꞌo itzel taq uxlabꞌal chike rukꞌ ri Jesús.
33 and the whole town was assembled at the door.
Jeriꞌ konojel ri winaq xkimulij kibꞌ chuchiꞌ ri uchiꞌ ja.
34 Then He cured numbers of people who were ill with various diseases, and He drove out many demons; not allowing the demons to speak, because they knew who He was.
Ri Jesús xuꞌkunaj e kꞌi yawabꞌibꞌ. Xeꞌresaj xuqujeꞌ itzel taq uxlabꞌal, man xuya ta bꞌe chike ri uxlabꞌal xechꞌawik rumal cher ri itzel taq uxlabꞌal ketaꞌm uwach ri Jesús.
35 In the morning He rose early, while it was still quite dark, and leaving the house He went away to a solitary place and there prayed.
Sibꞌalaj aqꞌabꞌil kꞌa kamuquq na, xwaꞌjil bꞌik ri Jesús xel bꞌi cho ri ja, xeꞌ pa jun leꞌaj utukel, chilaꞌ xuchapleꞌj wi chꞌawem.
36 And Simon and the others searched everywhere for Him.
Ri Simón e rachiꞌl jujun tijoxelabꞌ chik xebꞌe chutzukuxik ri Jesús.
37 When they found Him they said, "Every one is looking for you."
Are xkiriqo xkibꞌij che: Konojel ri winaq tajin kakitzukuj la.
38 "Let us go elsewhere, to the neighbouring country towns," He replied, "that I may proclaim my Message there also; because for that purpose I came from God."
Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: Chujel bꞌik waral, joꞌ chi pa taq nikꞌaj leꞌaj chik, rech jeriꞌ keꞌntzijoj ri utzij ri Dios, rumal cher are waꞌ nupatan in petinaq.
39 And He went through all Galilee, preaching in the synagogues and expelling the demons.
Xaq jeriꞌ, xbꞌinik pa ronojel Galilea, xutzijoj ri utz laj tzij pa ri Sinagoga, xuqujeꞌ xeꞌresaj ri itzel taq uxlabꞌal chike ri winaq.
40 One day there came a leper to Jesus entreating Him, and pleading on his knees. "If you are willing," he said, "you are able to cleanse me."
Xopan jun chꞌaꞌk achi rukꞌ ri Jesús, xqebꞌ rukꞌ xukiꞌk choch, kꞌa te riꞌ xuta toqꞌobꞌ che xubꞌij: We kaj la, chinchꞌajchꞌobꞌej la.
41 Moved with pity Jesus reached out His hand and touched him. "I am willing," He said; "be cleansed."
Salabꞌataj ri ranimaꞌ ri Jesús xuyuq ri uqꞌabꞌ xuchap ri achi, xubꞌij: Jeꞌ kawaj, chatchꞌajchꞌobꞌetajoq.
42 The leprosy at once left him, and he was cleansed.
Ri achi aninaq xutzirik, xel bꞌik ri chꞌaꞌk che.
43 Jesus at once sent him away, strictly charging him,
Ri Jesús xutaq bꞌik ri achi, xupixabꞌaj bꞌik, xubꞌij che:
44 and saying, "Be careful not to tell any one, but go and show yourself to the Priest, and for your purification present the offerings that Moses appointed as evidence for them."
Qas chataꞌ, mabꞌij chi che jun winaq ri xkꞌulmataj awukꞌ, xaq xwi jat jakꞌutu awibꞌ choch ri chꞌawenel pa kiwiꞌ ri winaq, chakꞌama bꞌik ri sipanik ri kubꞌij ri utaqanik ri Moisés, rech kakil ri winaq chi xatutzirik.
45 But the man, when he went out, began to tell every one and to publish the matter abroad, so that it was no longer possible for Jesus to go openly into any town; but He had to remain outside in unfrequented places, where people came to Him from all parts.
Are xel bꞌik ri achi rukꞌ ri Jesús, xuchapleꞌj utzijoxik chike ri winaq ri xkꞌulmatajik. Rumal riꞌ man xkwin ta chi ri Jesús xok pa taq ri tinimit, pune jeriꞌ e kꞌi winaq aꞌj jaljoj taq tinimit xoꞌpan rukꞌ.
