Juan 1
1 Pa ri majibꞌal tzi kꞌo chi wi ri Tzij, ri Tzij kꞌo rukꞌ ri Dios, ri Tzij are Dios xuqujeꞌ.
IN the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 Ri Tzij kꞌo wi loq rukꞌ ri Dios pa ri majibꞌal rech ronojel.
He was in the beginning with God.
3 Rumal rech Areꞌ xbꞌan ronojel ri jastaq, we ta mat rumal rech areꞌ mat xbꞌan ronojel ri jastaq ri kꞌolik.
All things were made by him; and without him was not one thing made that was made.
4 Pa Areꞌ kꞌo wi loq ri kꞌaslemal, xuqujeꞌ ri kꞌaslemal are kitunal ri winaq.
In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
5 Are waꞌ ri tunal ri katunan pa ri qꞌequꞌmal, man kwininaq taj ri qꞌequꞌmal chuchupisaxik.
And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness did not comprehend it.
6 Kꞌo jun achi ri xtaq loq rumal ri Dios, ubꞌiꞌnam Juan.
A man was sent from God, whose name was John.
7 Xtaq loq chuqꞌalajisaxik ri tunal, rech rumal re kekojon konojel ri winaq.
He came for a witness, that he might bear testimony concerning the Light, that all men through him might believe.
8 Man are taj tunal ri Juan, xwi xpe che uqꞌalajisaxik ri Tunal.
He was not the Light, but sent that he should bear testimony concerning the Light.
9 Ri qas tzij tunal, ri kuꞌtunaj konojel winaq, xpe choch ri uwachulew.
He was that true Light, which illumines every man by his coming into the world.
10 Ri tunal kꞌo chi wi choch ri uwachulew, are xtikow ronojel ri uwachulew, ri winaq kꞌut aꞌjuwachulew man xkichꞌobꞌ taj uwach ri Tzij.
He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
11 Xpe rukꞌ ri e rech, ri e rech man xkikꞌamawaꞌj taj.
He came unto his peculiar people, and his peculiar people did not receive him.
12 Are kꞌu ri xkikꞌamawaꞌj ri Tzij, ri xekojon che, xyaꞌtaj chike xuꞌx e ralkꞌwaꞌl ri Dios.
But as many as did receive him, on them he bestowed authority to become children of God, even on those who believe on his name:
13 We riꞌ man xkꞌiy ta loq che winaq xuqujeꞌ man xaq ta kꞌa teꞌ xkꞌiy loq, man urayibꞌal achi taj, xane che ri Dios xkꞌiy wi loq.
who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 Ri Tzij xux winaq, xkꞌojiꞌk chiqaxoꞌl. Xqil ri ujuluwem, are ujuluwem ri xa jun uKꞌojol ri Tataxel Dios, nojinaq che toqꞌobꞌ xuqujeꞌ qas tzij.
And the Word became incarnate, and tabernacled with us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, ) full of grace and truth.
15 Ri Juan xuqꞌalajisaj rij ri uKꞌojol ri Dios are xubꞌij: Areꞌ wa ri nutzijom loq chiꞌwe, are xinbꞌij: “Ri teren loq chwij, sibꞌalaj nim na chinuwach in, rumal cher kꞌo wi loq nabꞌe chinuwach in.”
John bore witness concerning him, and cried, saying, This is he of whom I said, He that is coming after me, is before me: because before me he was.
16 Che ri uqꞌinomal qonojel uj xqakꞌamawaꞌj toqꞌobꞌ puꞌwiꞌ toqꞌobꞌ.
And from his plenitude we all have received, even grace corresponding with his grace.
17 Jeriꞌ rumal cher ri taqanik che ri Moisés xya wi, are kꞌu ri toqꞌobꞌ xuqujeꞌ ri qas tzij are ri Jesucristo xyoꞌw chaqe.
For the law was given by Moses, but the grace and the reality came by Jesus Christ.
18 Man kꞌo ta wi jun winaq ilowinaq uwach ri Dios. Xwi ri xa jun ukꞌojol ri Dios, ri kꞌo uriqoj ibꞌ rukꞌ ri Tataxel, Areꞌ xkꞌutuw ri Dios chiqawach.
No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, he hath thoroughly described him.
19 Are waꞌ ri xubꞌij ri Juan chike ri e rijaꞌl ri Leví xuqujeꞌ ri e chꞌawenelabꞌ choch ri Dios ri xetaq bꞌik kumal ri winaq chutayik che jachin ri areꞌ.
And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent from Jerusalem priests and Levites, that they should question him, Who art thou?
20 Man xrawaj taj uqꞌalajisaxik, xane xubꞌij: Man in taj in Cristo.
And he confessed, and denied it not; but acknowledged, I am not the Messiah.
21 Ri winaq xkita che: ¿Jachin kꞌu ri at? ¿La at kꞌut at Elías? Man in taj, xchaꞌ. ¿La at kꞌut ri at qꞌalajisal tzij? Man in ta xuqujeꞌ, xchaꞌ.
And they asked him, What then? art thou Elias? and he said, I am not. Art thou that prophet? and he answered, No.
22 ¿Jachin kꞌu ri at? xecha che. Choqꞌaqꞌ kaqetaꞌmaj rech keꞌqabꞌij chike ri xujtaqow loq.
Then said they to him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to those who sent us: What description givest thou of thyself?
23 Ri Juan xukoj ri utzij ri qꞌalajisal utzij ri Dios Isaías, are xubꞌij: Uchꞌabꞌal jun winaq ri kuraq uchiꞌ pa ri katzꞌinow ulew, kubꞌij: “Chisukꞌumaj ri ubꞌe ri Ajawxel.”
He said, I am a voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way for the Lord, as said the prophet Isaiah.
24 E kꞌo jujun winaq ri xetaq bꞌik kumal ri fariseos.
And they who were sent, were of the Pharisees.
25 Xkita che: ¿Jas kꞌu che kabꞌan qasanaꞌ we man at at Cristo, man at taj at Elías xuqujeꞌ man at taj ri at Qꞌalajisal utzij ri Dios?
And they questioned him, and said to him, Why then dost thou baptise, if thou be not the Messiah, nor Elias, nor that prophet?
26 Ri Juan xubꞌij: Ri in kinbꞌan qasanaꞌ rukꞌ jaꞌ. Kꞌo kꞌu jun ri kꞌo chi ixoꞌl ri man iwetaꞌm taj uwach.
John answered them, saying, I baptise with water: but in the midst of you hath stood a person, whom ye have not known;
27 Areꞌ teren loq chwij, man taqal taj chwe in kinkir ri jatꞌibꞌal rech ri uxajabꞌ.
it is he, though coming after me, who was before me, the thong of whole sandal I am not worthy to untie.
28 Ronojel we jastaq riꞌ xkꞌulmataj pa ri tinimit Betania, chꞌaqaꞌp che ri nimaꞌ Jordán, jawjeꞌ tajin kubꞌan wi qasanaꞌ ri Juan.
These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptising.
29 Chukabꞌ qꞌij ri Juan xril ri Jesús are tajin kanaqajin loq che, xubꞌij: ¡Chiwilampeꞌ! ¡Are waꞌ ri alaj uchij ri Dios ri karesaj makaj choch ronojel ri uwachulew!
The next day John seeth Jesus coming to him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, who taketh away the sin of the world,
30 Are waꞌ ri xintzijoj are xinbꞌij chiꞌwe: “Teren loq jun achi ri chwij ri nim ubꞌanik chinuwach, jeriꞌ rumal tzi kꞌo wi loq Areꞌ, are kꞌa majaꞌ kinkꞌojiꞌ in.”
This is he of whom I spake, After me cometh a man who was before me: for before me he existed.
31 Man wetaꞌm ta in uwach nabꞌe, xinbꞌan kꞌu kiqasanaꞌ ri winaq pa jaꞌ, rech jeriꞌ kukꞌut ribꞌ chikiwach.
And I knew him not: though that he might be manifested to Israel, therefore am I come baptising with water.
32 Ri Juan xubꞌij: Ri in xinwilo ri Uxlabꞌixel jer xubꞌan jun palomax xqaj loq puꞌwiꞌ ri Areꞌ.
And John bore witness, saying, I saw the Spirit descending as a dove from heaven, and it rested upon him.
33 Man wetaꞌm ta in uwach nabꞌe, are kꞌu ri xintaqow loq chubꞌanik qasanaꞌ pa jaꞌ xubꞌij chwe: “Ri kawilo kaqaj ri Uxlabꞌixel puꞌwiꞌ are riꞌ ri kabꞌanow qasanaꞌ rukꞌ ri Uxlabꞌixel.”
And I did not know him: but he that sent me baptising with water, he said to me, Upon whomsoever thou shalt see the Spirit descending as a dove, and resting upon him, that is he who baptiseth with the Holy Ghost.
34 Ri in wilom we riꞌ rumal riꞌ kinqꞌalajisaj chi areꞌ are uKꞌojol ri Dios.
And I have seen it, and have borne testimony that this is the Son of God.
35 Che ri jun qꞌij chik ri Juan junmul chik kꞌo chilaꞌ, e rachiꞌl kebꞌ chike ri utijoxelabꞌ.
On the morrow John was again standing with two of his disciples;
36 Are xrilo chi tajin kikꞌow bꞌik ri Jesús chilaꞌ, xubꞌij: ¡Chiwilampeꞌ! Chi riꞌ kꞌo wi we alaj uchij ri Dios ri kukuy makaj.
and looking upon Jesus as he walked by, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God!
37 Are xkita ri e kebꞌ utijoxelabꞌ ri Juan chi jeriꞌ xubꞌij, xeteriꞌ bꞌik chirij ri Jesús.
And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
38 Xtzalqꞌomij ri Jesús, kꞌa te xeꞌrilo e teren ri kebꞌ tijoxelabꞌ chirij, xuta chike: ¿Jas kitzukuj? Areꞌ xkibꞌij: Ajtij, ¿jawjeꞌ kꞌo wi ri achoch la?
Then Jesus turned about, and seeing them following, saith to them, What are ye seeking? They said unto him, Rabbi (which signifies, when translated, Master), where is thy abode?
39 Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: Chixanloq jiliwilaꞌ. Ri tijoxelabꞌ xebꞌek, xeꞌkilaꞌ jawjeꞌ kel wi ri Jesús, kꞌa te riꞌ xekanaj kan jun aqꞌabꞌ chilaꞌ, rumal cher ukaj hora chik rech bꞌenaq qꞌij.
He saith unto them, Come and see. They came and saw where he abode, and continued with him that day: and it was about the tenth hour.
40 Ri Andrés rachalal ri Simón Pedro, jun chike ri e kebꞌ tijoxelabꞌ, xuta ri xubꞌij ri Juan, rumal riꞌ xutereneꞌj bꞌik ri Jesús.
One of the two, who had heard from John mention of Jesus, and had followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.
41 Ri Andrés are xuriq ri rachalal, Simón xubꞌij che. Xqarik ri Mesías, (ri kel kubꞌij Cristo).
He first finds his own brother Simon, and saith to him, We have found the Messiah (which is, being translated, the Christ).
42 Ri Andrés xukꞌam bꞌik ri rachalal rukꞌ ri Jesús, ri Jesús ko xukaꞌyej ri Simón, kꞌa te riꞌ xubꞌij che: At Simón, ralkꞌwaꞌl ri Juan, kabꞌinaꞌj na Cefas, (ri kel kubꞌij Pedro).
And he brought him to Jesus. Then Jesus looking on him, said, Thou art Simon the son of Jonas: thou shalt be called Cephas, which, interpreted in Greek, is Petros, a Rock.
43 Chukabꞌ qꞌij chik, ri Jesús xuchomaj keꞌ pa Galilea. Xuriq kꞌu ri Felipe, xubꞌij che: Chinatereneꞌj.
The next day Jesus resolved to go into Galilee, and he findeth Philip, and saith to him, Follow me.
44 Ri Felipe aj Betsaida, je xuqujeꞌ ri Andrés rachiꞌl ri Pedro.
Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
45 Ri Felipe xeꞌ chutzukuxik ri Natanael, are xuriqo xubꞌij che: Xqarik ri Jesús aj Nazaret, ukꞌojol ri José, are waꞌ ri xtzꞌibꞌax loq rij chupam ri wuj rech taqanik rech ri Moisés xuqujeꞌ chupam ri wuj kech ri e qꞌalajisal taq tzij rech ri Dios.
Philip findeth Nathaniel, and saith to him, We have found him whom Moses in the law has described, and the prophets, Jesus the son of Joseph, who is of Nazareth.
46 Ri Natanael xubꞌij: ¿Che aj Nazaret we achi riꞌ? ¿La kꞌo kꞌu jun utza winaq kel chilaꞌ? Ri Felipe xubꞌij che: Chatampe loq, jalawilaꞌ.
And Nathaniel said to him, Can any thing good come out of Nazareth? Philip saith to him, Come and see.
47 Ri Jesús are xrilo chi tajin kaqebꞌ loq ri Natanael rukꞌ, xubꞌij: Waral kꞌo wi jun achi qas aj Israel, man kubꞌan taj bꞌanoj tzij.
Jesus saw Nathaniel coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite in reality, in whom there is no guile!
48 Ri Natanael xuta che ri Jesús: ¿Jawjeꞌ ilom wi la nuwach? Ri Jesús xubꞌij che: Xatinwilo are majaꞌ katusikꞌij ri Felipe, at kꞌo chuxeꞌ ri ucheꞌal ri higuera.
Nathaniel saith unto him, From whence canst thou know me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig-tree, I saw thee.
49 Ri Natanael xubꞌij: Rabí, at at Ukꞌojol ri Dios, at nim taqanel pa ri tinimit Israel.
Nathaniel answered and said to him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the king of Israel.
50 Ri Jesús xubꞌij che: ¿La rumal ri xinbꞌij chawe chi xatinwilo are at kꞌo chuxeꞌ ri ucheꞌal ri higuera rumal riꞌ kakojo chi in in Ukꞌojol ri Dios? Kawil na nimaq taq jastaq choch we riꞌ.
Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said to thee, I saw thee under the fig-tree, dost thou believe? thou shalt see greater things than these.
51 Qas tzij kinbꞌij chiꞌwe chi kiwil na kajaqataj ri kaj, xuqujeꞌ ri angelibꞌ kepaqiꞌk kexuliꞌk puꞌwiꞌ ri uKꞌojol ri Achi.
And he saith to him, Verily, verily, I tell you, From henceforth ye shall see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.
