1 Timoteo 6

1 Rajawaxik konojel ri ajchakibꞌ keꞌkinimaj ri keyoꞌw kichak, xaq jeriꞌ man kakiya ta bꞌe kabꞌix kꞌaxal che ri ubꞌiꞌ ri Dios xuqujeꞌ che ri qakꞌutuꞌn.

LET as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed.

2 Ri e kojonelabꞌ kipatron, man utz taj we man keꞌkinimaj xa rumal alaxik, xane rajawaxik sibꞌalaj utz na kakibꞌan che kipatanixik, rumal ri kekꞌamawaꞌn ri kipatanijik e kojonelabꞌ xuqujeꞌ e loqꞌalaj taq alaxik. Areꞌ wa ri rajawaxik kakꞌutu xuqujeꞌ kachilibꞌej.

And they that have believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren; but rather do them service, because they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the benefit. These things teach and exhort.

3 We kꞌo ne jun kuya kꞌutuꞌn ri man utz taj, ri kujelechꞌuj che ri utz laj kꞌutuꞌn rech ri Ajawxel Jesucristo xuqujeꞌ che ri kꞌutuꞌn rech ri utzilal,

If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;

4 waꞌ jun winaq ri maj retaꞌmabꞌal, ri man kakwin taj kuchꞌobꞌ ri jastaq. We winaq riꞌ kekꞌarkꞌat che utzukuxik tzijonem ri maj kutayij, ri kutik loq oyawal, tzukun chꞌoꞌj, itzel taq chomanik,

He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,

5 we winaq riꞌ e tzukul taq chꞌoꞌj chikixoꞌl ri winaq, man utz ta ri kechomanik, are wa ri maj qas tzij kukꞌ. Pa kikꞌuꞌx chi ri utzilal chꞌekbꞌal pwaq.

Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.

6 Qas ne tzij wi chi rukꞌ ri utzilal kakꞌamawaꞌx nimaq taq chꞌekoj, we jun kakubꞌiꞌ ukꞌuꞌx rukꞌ ri kꞌo rukꞌ.

But godliness with contentment is great gain.

7 Rumal cher maj xqakꞌam loq are xujul pa ri uwachulew, xuqujeꞌ maj kujkwinik kaqakꞌam bꞌik are kujkamik.

For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.

8 Xaq jeriꞌ kuꞌl qakꞌuꞌx we kꞌo qatzꞌyaq xuqujeꞌ qawa.

And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.

9 Ri kakaj keqꞌinomarik, ketzaq pa ri mak, xuqujeꞌ kuꞌx ajchakibꞌ rech ri rayibꞌal kikꞌuꞌx. Xaq kꞌaxiribꞌal kuꞌx ri man kꞌo ta etaꞌmabꞌal chupam, xuqujeꞌ kuꞌtzaq ri winaq pa ri tukin ibꞌ.

But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.

10 Rumal ri uloqꞌaxik ri pwaq are ukꞌuꞌx ronojel etzelal. Rumal urayixik, e kꞌi xkijelechꞌuj kibꞌe che ri kojobꞌal xuqujeꞌ e kꞌi kikꞌowisam kꞌi kꞌaxal.

For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

11 Ri at kꞌut, achi rech ri Dios, chatanimaj cho we jastaq riꞌ, are chasakꞌajij utereneꞌxik ri sukꞌal, ri utzilal, ri kojobꞌal, ri loqꞌanik, ri mochꞌochꞌem xuqujeꞌ ri ubꞌanik ri jastaq.

But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.

12 Chachꞌoꞌjij ri utz laj chꞌoꞌj rech ri akojobꞌal, chabꞌana awe che ri jun alik kꞌaslemal, ri xatsikꞌix wi apanoq, rumal rech xabꞌan ri qꞌalajisanik rech kojobꞌal chikiwach e kꞌi winaq. (aiōnios g166)

Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. (aiōnios g166)

13 Chaya bꞌe che karil ri Dios ri kabꞌano, areꞌ yoꞌwinaq ukꞌaslemal ronojel ri jastaq, xuqujeꞌ ri Cristo Jesús ri xuya ri mayijabꞌal laj qꞌalajisanik cho ri Poncio Pilato, kinchilibꞌej

I give thee charge in the sight of God, who quickeneth all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession;

14 chakꞌolo we taqanik riꞌ, kꞌa pa ri qꞌij ri kape ri Ajawxel Jesucristo, man rukꞌ ta chꞌulujil xuqujeꞌ man rukꞌ ta yoqꞌoj.

That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:

15 Ri Dios kubꞌan na chi kakꞌulmataj we jastaq riꞌ pa ri kꞌyaqalik qꞌotaj. Che ri xa jun tewchiꞌtal, ri kꞌo kwinem puꞌqꞌabꞌ, Taqanel pa kiwiꞌ ri taqanelabꞌ, xuqujeꞌ Ajawxel pa kiwiꞌ ri ketaqan pa kiwiꞌ ri winaq.

Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;

16 Che ri xa jun ri man kakam ta wi, ri kꞌo pa ri tunal ri maj jun chik kakwinik kok chupam, ri man ilitajinaq ta wi, xuqujeꞌ maj jun kakwin chi rilik, che areꞌ yaꞌtal wi nim uqꞌij, xuqujeꞌ ri kwinem chibꞌe qꞌij saq. Jeriꞌ. (aiōnios g166)

Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen. (aiōnios g166)

17 Chabꞌij chike ri e qꞌinomabꞌ rech uwachulew, man kakinaꞌ ta nimal, xuqujeꞌ man kakubꞌiꞌ ta kikꞌuꞌx chirij ri kiqꞌinomal, ri xaq sachel uwach. Xane kuꞌl kikꞌuꞌx chirij ri Dios, areꞌ kayoꞌw ronojel ri ukꞌiyal ri jastaq chaqe, rech kaqa kiꞌkotebꞌej ukojik. (aiōn g165)

Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy; (aiōn g165)

18 Chaꞌtaqchiꞌj chubꞌanik ri utzilal, kibꞌana utz laj taq chak, xuqujeꞌ che sipanoq, kijacha ri kꞌo kukꞌ.

That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate;

19 Xaq jeriꞌ kakikꞌol sibꞌalaj kꞌi jastaq rech ri kꞌaslemal ri kape na, xuqujeꞌ kakikꞌamawaꞌj jun alik kꞌaslemal.

Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.

20 Timoteo, jas chawilij ubꞌanik ri chilibꞌetal chawe. Man kaya ta bꞌe che ri tzijonem chirij ri jastaq ri maj kutayij, xuqujeꞌ ri chomanik rech ri etaꞌmabꞌal ri xaq ke achyabꞌ.

O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:

21 E kꞌo jujun rumal ukꞌamawaꞌxik we jastaq riꞌ, xkijelechꞌuj kan kibꞌ che ri kojobꞌal. Are ri toqꞌobꞌ kakanaj iwukꞌ.

Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen. The first to Timothy was written from Laodicea, which is the chiefest city of Phrygia Pacatiana. THE
