< Romans 5 >

1 Standing then acquitted as the result of faith, let us enjoy peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
Rumal riꞌ xbꞌantaj sukꞌ chaqe rumal ri qakojobꞌal, uj kꞌo chi pa jaꞌmaril rukꞌ ri Dios xa rumal rech ri Ajawxel Jesucristo.
2 through whom also, as the result of faith, we have obtained an introduction into that state of favour with God in which we stand, and we exult in hope of some day sharing in God's glory.
Xa rumal rech areꞌ, xuqujeꞌ rumal ri kojobꞌal kꞌo qe che ri toqꞌobꞌ, jawjeꞌ ri uj sukꞌ wi. Xaq jeriꞌ kujkiꞌkotik qayeꞌm ri ujuluwem ri Dios.
3 And not only so: we also exult in our sufferings, knowing as we do, that suffering produces fortitude;
Man xwi ta waꞌ, xane kaqanaꞌ xuqujeꞌ nimaꞌq pa taq ri kꞌaxkꞌolal ri kaqariqo, qetaꞌm chi ri kaxkꞌolal kubꞌan chaqe chi kujjeqiꞌk.
4 fortitude, ripeness of character; and ripeness of character, hope;
Ri kꞌaxkꞌolal kusukꞌumaj ri noꞌjibꞌal, ri sukꞌalaj noꞌjibꞌal, kujeqebꞌa qakꞌuꞌx chirij ri Dios.
5 and that this hope never disappoints, because God's love for us floods our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.
Man kel ta qakꞌixibꞌal we jeqel qakꞌuꞌx chirij ri Dios, jeriꞌ rumal cher Areꞌ xutixixej loq ri uloqꞌanik pa ri qanimaꞌ rumal ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel ri xuya chaqe.
6 For already, while we were still helpless, Christ at the right moment died for the ungodly.
Jeriꞌ rumal che taq riꞌ are man kujkwin ta chukolik qibꞌ, ri Cristo xkamik kumal kech ri itzel taq winaq, qas pa ri qꞌij ri yaꞌtalik.
7 Why, it is scarcely conceivable that any one would die for a simply just man, although for a good and lovable man perhaps some one, here and there, will have the courage even to lay down his life.
Kꞌax uriqik jun winaq ri karaj kakam rumal jun sukꞌ laj winaq, pune kꞌo jun riꞌ ri karaj kakam rumal rech.
8 But God gives proof of His love to us in Christ's dying for us while we were still sinners.
Ri Dios xukꞌut ri uloqꞌanik chiqawach, jeriꞌ rumal ri are uj aꞌjmakibꞌ na, ri Cristo xkam rumal qe.
9 If therefore we have now been pronounced free from guilt through His blood, much more shall we be delivered from God's anger through Him.
Xbꞌantaj sukꞌ chaqe rumal ri ukikꞌel, xuqujeꞌ kujkoltaj na che ri nimalaj uqꞌatoj tzij ri kape na.
10 For if while we were hostile to God we were reconciled to Him through the death of His Son, it is still more certain that now that we are reconciled, we shall obtain salvation through Christ's life.
Are taq uj ukꞌulel kan ri Dios, xujutzir rukꞌ, rumal ri ukamikal ri Ukꞌojol, rumal kꞌu che ri uj utzirinaq chi rukꞌ ri Dios, kujkoltaj na rumal ri ukꞌaslemal ri Ukꞌojol.
11 And not only so, but we also exult in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now obtained that reconciliation.
Man xwi ta waꞌ, xane kujkiꞌkot xuqujeꞌ pa Dios rumal ri Ajawxel Jesucristo, tyox che areꞌ xujrutzirisaj.
12 What follows? This comparison. Through one man sin entered into the world, and through sin death, and so death passed to all mankind in turn, in that all sinned.
Xa rumal rech jun achi xok loq ri mak cho ri uwachulew, xuqujeꞌ xa rumal ri makaj xpe ri kamikal. Xuqujeꞌ xkichapleꞌj kamem ri winaq rumal cher konojel xemakunik.
13 For prior to the Law sin was already in the world; only it is not entered in the account against us when no Law exists.
Are taq majaꞌ kayaꞌtaj ri taqanik, kꞌo chi wi ri makaj pa ri uwachulew. Ri makaj man katzijox taj we ta mat kꞌo ri taqanik.
14 Yet Death reigned as king from Adam to Moses even over those who had not sinned, as Adam did, against Law. And in Adam we have a type of Him whose coming was still future.
Pune jeriꞌ, ri kamikal xchapleꞌtaj loq rukꞌ ri Adán xultoqꞌol rukꞌ ri Moisés, xuqujeꞌ xpe pa kiwiꞌ ri winaq ri pune man xemakunik jetaq ri xubꞌan ri Adán. Ri Adán are xretwechij loq uwach ri jun ri kape na.
15 But God's free gift immeasurably outweighs the transgression. For if through the transgression of the one individual the mass of mankind have died, infinitely greater is the generosity with which God's grace, and the gift given in His grace which found expression in the one man Jesus Christ, have been bestowed on the mass of mankind.
Ri umak ri Adán man kajunumataj taj rukꞌ ri utoqꞌobꞌ ri Dios. We kꞌu rumal ri umak jun achi xekam sibꞌalaj kꞌi winaq, are ta kꞌu mat nim ri sipanik ri xpe xa rumal ri utoqꞌobꞌ jun, ri Jesucristo, ri xuya chike konojel ri winaq.
16 And it is not with the gift as it was with the results of one individual's sin; for the judgement which one individual provoked resulted in condemnation, whereas the free gift after a multitude of transgressions results in acquittal.
Xuqujeꞌ man kajunumataj taj ri usipanik ri Dios rukꞌ ri kꞌax ri xukꞌam loq ri umak ri Adán. Ri qꞌatoj tzij ri kakꞌaman bꞌik pa ri kꞌaxkꞌolal are waꞌ ri xuya kanoq ri makaj, are kꞌu ri usipanik ri Dios xpetik rumal ri ukꞌiyal ri makaj rech jeriꞌ xuluya sukꞌal.
17 For if, through the transgression of the one individual, Death made use of the one individual to seize the sovereignty, all the more shall those who receive God's overflowing grace and gift of righteousness reign as kings in Life through the one individual, Jesus Christ.
We rumal ri umak jun achi xpe ri kamikal, are kꞌu mat sibꞌalaj e kꞌi na kekꞌojiꞌ pa ri kꞌaslemal ri xpetik xa rumal rech ri jun, ri Jesucristo ri kekꞌamawaꞌn ri kꞌaslemal are ri winaq ri kakikꞌamawaꞌj ri sipanik xuqujeꞌ ri sukꞌal.
18 It follows then that just as the result of a single transgression is a condemnation which extends to the whole race, so also the result of a single decree of righteousness is a life-giving acquittal which extends to the whole race.
Je kꞌu riꞌ, xa jun makaj xkꞌamow loq ri kꞌaxkꞌolal pa kiwiꞌ konojel ri winaq, je xuqujeꞌ xa jun jastaq rech sukꞌal xbꞌanow ri sukꞌal ri kuya kikꞌaslemal konojel.
19 For as through the disobedience of the one individual the mass of mankind were constituted sinners, so also through the obedience of the One the mass of mankind will be constituted righteous.
Jeriꞌ xa rumal cher man xniman taj jun achi, e kꞌi xbꞌantaj aꞌjmakibꞌ chike, je xuqujeꞌ xa rumal ri unimanik jun kabꞌantaj sukꞌ chike e kꞌi.
20 Now Law was brought in later on, so that transgression might increase. But where sin increased, grace has overflowed;
Ri taqanik xyaꞌtajik rech jeriꞌ kanimar ri makaj. Are xnimar ri makaj, sibꞌalaj xnimar ri toqꞌobꞌ.
21 in order that as sin has exercised kingly sway in inflicting death, so grace, too, may exercise kingly sway in bestowing a righteousness which results in the Life of the Ages through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios g166)
Jeriꞌ rech jetaq ri xubꞌan ri makaj xukꞌam loq kamikal, ri toqꞌobꞌ xuqujeꞌ xjeqiꞌk rech xukꞌam loq sukꞌal rech jun alik kꞌaslemal rumal ri Ajawxel Jesucristo. (aiōnios g166)
