Juan 8
1 Xeꞌ kꞌu ri Jesús pa ri juyubꞌ Olivos.
THEN Jesus went to the mount of Olives.
2 Are xsaqir chukabꞌ qꞌij, xopan chi junmul pa ri Templo. Konojel ri winaq xeqet rukꞌ, xtꞌuyiꞌk kꞌut, xuchapleꞌj uyaꞌik kꞌutuꞌn chike.
But early in the morning he came again to the temple, and all the people came to him; and sitting down he taught them.
3 Ri aꞌjtijabꞌ rech ri taqanik e kachiꞌl ri fariseos xkikꞌam bꞌik jun ixoq ri xkiriq pa mak kukꞌ achyabꞌ xeꞌkiya chikixoꞌl ri winaq
Then the scribes and Pharisees brought to him a woman caught in adultery; and placing her in the midst,
4 Kꞌa te riꞌ xkibꞌij che ri Jesús: Ajtij, xriqitaj we ixoq riꞌ tajin kamakun kukꞌ achyabꞌ.
they say unto him, Master, this woman was caught in adultery, in the very act.
5 Ri utaqanik ri Moisés kubꞌij chaqe chi keꞌqakamisaj che abꞌaj ri ixoqibꞌ ri jewaꞌ kakibꞌano. ¿Jas kabꞌij lal che?
Now Moses in the law commanded, that such women should be stoned: therefore what sayest thou?
6 Jewaꞌ xkibꞌij che rech kakikoj jun kꞌaꞌmabꞌal pa ubꞌe rech jeriꞌ kakimol umak. Ri Jesús kꞌut xchiqiꞌk, xuchapleꞌj tzꞌibꞌanem pa ri ulew.
But this they said, trying to entrap him, that they might have ground of accusation against him. But Jesus stooping down, with his finger wrote on the ground.
7 Ri winaq xkichapleꞌj ubꞌanik kꞌotbꞌal chiꞌ che ri Jesús rumal riꞌ, xtakꞌiꞌk kꞌa te riꞌ xubꞌij chike: Ri maj umak chiꞌwe chukꞌyaqa ri nabꞌe abꞌaj.
Now when they continued questioning him, raising himself up, he said to them, Let the person who is sinless among you, first cast a stone at her.
8 Ri Jesús xchiqiꞌ chi junmul xuchapleꞌj chik tzꞌibꞌanem pa ri ulew.
And again stooping down, he wrote on the ground.
9 Are xkita ri xbꞌix chike xkichapleꞌj bꞌik elem pa jujunal, nabꞌe xebꞌe ri e riꞌjabꞌ, xaq xwi xekanaj kanoq ri Jesús rachiꞌl ri ixoq.
But when they heard him, and felt the conviction of their conscience, they slunk away one by one, beginning from the elders to the last: so Jesus was left alone, with the woman standing in the midst.
10 Ri Jesús kꞌut xuta che ri ixoq: Ixoq, ¿jawjeꞌ e kꞌo wi ri kakiqꞌat tzij pa awiꞌ?
Then Jesus raising himself up, and seeing no person but the woman, said unto her, Woman, where are these thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
11 Ri ixoq xubꞌij: Ajawxel, man e kꞌo ta chik. Ri Jesús xubꞌij che: Man kinqꞌat ta xuqujeꞌ tzij in pa awiꞌ. Jat, ma katmakun ta chik junmul.
She said, No man, Lord. Then said Jesus unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
12 Ri Jesús junmul chik xubꞌij chike ri winaq: In in tunal ri katunan ri uwachulew. Ri kateriꞌ chwij man kabꞌin taj pa qꞌequꞌmal xane kukꞌamawaꞌj na ri tunal rech kꞌaslemal.
Then spake Jesus again to them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
13 Ri fariseos xkibꞌij che ri Jesús: Xaq at kaqꞌalajisaj awibꞌ maj kutayij ri qꞌalajisanik ri kabꞌano.
The Pharisees said to him, Thou bearest witness of thyself; thy witness is not true.
14 Ri Jesús xubꞌij: Pune in kinqꞌalajisaj wibꞌ, qas saq ri nuqꞌalajisanik, jeriꞌ rumal wetaꞌm jawjeꞌ nupetik wi xuqujeꞌ jawjeꞌ kineꞌ wi. Ri ix kꞌut man iwetaꞌm taj jawjeꞌ nupetik xuqujeꞌ jawjeꞌ kineꞌ wi.
Jesus answered and said to them, Though I do bear witness of myself, my witness is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I am going; but ye know not whence I come, nor whither I am going.
15 Ri ix kiqꞌat tzij rukꞌ ri ichomabꞌal rech uwachulew, ri in man kinqꞌat taj tzij puꞌwiꞌ jun chik.
Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.
16 We kꞌu kinqꞌat tzij, ri nuqꞌatoj tzij qas sukꞌ wi, jeriꞌ rumal man kinbꞌan ta xaq pa we wi, xane wachiꞌl ri Tataxel ri xintaqow loq.
But though I should judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent me.
17 Pa ri itaqanik kubꞌij chi we e kebꞌ winaq kebꞌanow ri qꞌalajisanik, qas tzij riꞌ ri kakibꞌij.
Now even in your law it is written, that the testimony of two men is true.
18 In kinqꞌalajisaj wibꞌ xuqujeꞌ ri Tataxel ri xintaqow loq kuya qꞌalajisanik chwij in.
I am a witness for myself, and the Father who sent me beareth witness of me.
19 Ri fariseos xkita che ri Jesús: ¿Jawjeꞌ kꞌo wi ri atat? Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: We ta iwetaꞌm in jachinaq iwetaꞌm xuqujeꞌ riꞌ jachin ri nuTat.
Then said they to him, Where is thy father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye would have known my Father also.
20 We jastaq riꞌ xubꞌij ri Jesús are tajin kuya kꞌutuꞌn pa ri kꞌolibꞌal jawjeꞌ kaya wi ri sipanik pa ri Templo. Maj kꞌu jun xchapowik jeriꞌ rumal majaꞌ kuriq ri uqꞌijal.
These words spake Jesus in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no person apprehended him; for his hour was not yet come.
21 Junmul chik ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: In kineꞌek, ri ix kꞌut kinitzukuj na pune jeriꞌ kixkam kꞌu pa taq ri imak. Man kixkwin taj kixeꞌek jawjeꞌ ri kineꞌ wi in.
Then spake Jesus again to them, I am going away, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sin: whither I am going ye cannot come.
22 Ri winaq aꞌj Israel xkibꞌij: ¿Teꞌq xa kuchomaj kukamisaj ribꞌ? ¿Wine rumal laꞌ kubꞌij chi: “Man kixkwin taj kixeꞌek jawjeꞌ ri kineꞌ wi”?
The Jews said therefore, Will he kill himself? because he said, Whither I go, ye cannot come.
23 Ri Jesús xubꞌij: Ix ix aj waral choch ri uwachulew, in in rech chikaj. Ix ix ajuwachulew, ri in man in ajuwachulew taj.
And he said to them, Ye are from those beneath; I am from those above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
24 Rumal riꞌ xinbꞌij chiꞌwe chi kixkam pa taq ri imak, jeriꞌ rumal man kikoj taj chi in ri kinbꞌij chiꞌwe kinuxik, rumal riꞌ kixkam pa ri imak.
I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am, ye shall die in your sins.
25 Ri winaq xkita che: ¿At jachin kꞌu ri at? Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: Pa ri majibꞌal re xinbꞌij chiꞌwe in jachinaq.
They said, therefore to him, Who art thou? And Jesus said to them, Assuredly the same as I am telling you.
26 Sibꞌalaj kꞌi jastaq na kinbꞌij chiꞌwe xuqujeꞌ kinqꞌat na tzij pa iwiꞌ rumal rech kiꞌ jastaq. Are kꞌu ri xintaqow loq qas kꞌo wi, ri ubꞌim chwe are kintzalij ubꞌixik chike ri winaq aꞌjuwachulew.
I have many things to speak and to decide concerning you: but he that sent me is true; and the things which I have heard from him I speak to the world.
27 Ri winaq kꞌut man xkichomaj taj chi ri Jesús are tajin kutzijoj rij ri uTat.
They knew not that he spake to them of the Father.
28 Ri Jesús xutzꞌaqatisaj ubꞌixik chike: Are kawaꞌjilisax ri uKꞌojol ri Achi, kiwetaꞌmaj na chi ri in man kinkwin taj kinbꞌan ri jastaq xqa pa we wi, xane are kinbꞌan ri ukꞌutum ri Tataxel chinuwach.
Then said Jesus to them, When ye shall have lifted up on high the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am, and of myself have I done nothing; but as the Father hath instructed me, so I speak.
29 Kꞌo wukꞌ ri xintaqow loq, man in uyaꞌom ta kanoq nutukel, jeriꞌ rumal are kinbꞌan ri kaqaj choch.
And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; because I always do the things acceptable to him.
30 Tajin katzijon na ri Jesús are xkichapleꞌj kojonem che e kꞌi winaq.
As he spake these words, many believed on him.
31 Xubꞌij kꞌu ri Jesús chike ri winaq aꞌj Israel ri xekojon che: We qas kixjeqiꞌk pa ri nukꞌutuꞌn qas kixux riꞌ nutijoxelabꞌ.
Then said Jesus to those Jews who believed on him, If ye abide in my word, assuredly ye are my disciples;
32 Kiwetaꞌmaj kꞌu na ri qas tzij, ri qas tzij kꞌut kubꞌan na chiꞌwe chi kixtzoqopitajik.
and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33 Ri winaq aꞌj Israel xkibꞌij: Ri uj rijaꞌl ri Abraham, man ujuxinaq ta wi patanil rech jun chik. ¿Jas kꞌu che kabꞌij at chi kujtzoqopitaj na?
They answered him, We are Abraham’s seed, and never were in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, That we shall be made free?
34 Ri Jesús xubꞌij: Qas tzij kinbꞌij chiꞌwe xapachin ri kamakunik, riꞌ patanil rech ri mak.
Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, That every one who committeth sin is the slave of sin.
35 Jun patanijel man kakanaj ta kanoq amaqꞌel pa ri ja ri kapatanij wi, are kꞌu ri alkꞌwaꞌlaxel chi aj upaja wi. (aiōn g165)
But the slave abideth not in the family for ever: but the son abideth for ever. (aiōn g165)
36 We qas are ri Alkꞌwaꞌlaxel kixtzoqopinik, qas kixtzoqopitaj wi na.
If the Son therefore make you free, ye will be truly free.
37 Wetaꞌm in chi ix rijaꞌl ri Abraham, pune jeriꞌ are kiwaj kinikamisaj rumal cher man kiwaj taj kikꞌamawaꞌj ri nutzij.
I know that ye are Abraham’s seed; yet ye seek to kill me, because my word has no place in you.
38 In are kintzijoj ri wilom rukꞌ ri nuTat, are kꞌu ri ix are kinbꞌan ri itom che ri itat.
I speak what I have seen with my Father: and ye do therefore what ye have seen with your father.
39 Ri winaq xkibꞌij: Are qatat uj ri Abraham. Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: We ta qas ix ralkꞌwaꞌl ri Abraham, kibꞌan riꞌ jetaq ri xubꞌan areꞌ.
They answered and said unto him, Our Father is Abraham. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were the children of Abraham, ye would have done the works of Abraham.
40 Ix kꞌut are kiwaj kinikamisaj jeriꞌ rumal xintzijoj ri tunal chiꞌwe ri xuya chwe ri Dios. Ri Abraham man kubꞌan ta kꞌu riꞌ ri kichomaj ix ubꞌanik.
But now ye seek to kill me, a man who hath told you the truth, which I have heard from God. Abraham did not so.
41 Ri ix are kibꞌan ri uchak ri itat itzel. Ri winaq xkibꞌij: Uj, man uj ralkꞌwaꞌl ta mak. Xa jun qatat kꞌolik, are ri Dios.
Ye do the works of your father. They said unto him, We are not born of whoredom; we have one Father, even God.
42 Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: We ta qas are itat ri Dios, kiniloqꞌaj riꞌ, jeriꞌ rumal in in petinaq che ri Dios xuqujeꞌ in kꞌo waral iwukꞌ. Man in petinaq taj xaq pa we wi, xane Areꞌ xintaqow loq.
Then said Jesus unto them, If God was your Father, ye would have loved me: for I came out from God, and I am coming; neither indeed came I of myself, but he hath sent me.
43 ¿Jas che man kichomaj taj ri kinbꞌij? Man kichomaj taj rumal man kikꞌamawaꞌj taj ri nutzij.
Wherefore do ye not understand my speech? because ye cannot hear my word.
44 Ix ix rech ri itat ri Itzel, are kibꞌan ri urayibꞌal areꞌ. Kamisanel wi riꞌ areꞌ pa ri majibꞌal loq rech ronojel, man kꞌo taj pa ri tunal, jeriꞌ rumal man kꞌo ta tunal pa are. Are kubꞌan bꞌanoj tzij, kukꞌut ribꞌ chi xaq bꞌanal tzij. Ri itzel are utat ri bꞌanoj tzij.
Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will practise. He was a murderer from the beginning, and stood not fast in the truth, because truth was not in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh what is peculiarly his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
45 Are kꞌu ri in man kinikoj taj pune are kinbꞌij chiꞌwe ri qas tzij.
But because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.
46 ¿Jachin chiꞌwe kakwin chukꞌutik chi in ajmak? We qas tzij ri kinbꞌij chiꞌwe, ¿jas kꞌu che kiwaj kinikamisaj?
Which of you can convict me of sin? Now if I speak the truth, why do ye not believe me?
47 Ri winaq ri rech ri Dios kutatabꞌej ri kubꞌij ri Dios. Ri ix kꞌut man kitatabꞌej taj rumal man ix rech taj ri Dios.
He that is of God heareth the words of God: ye therefore do not hear him, because ye are not of God.
48 Ri winaq aꞌj Israel xkibꞌij che ri Jesús: ¿La man kꞌyaqal ri kaqabꞌij chawe chi at, at jun achi aj Samaria, ri kꞌo jun itzel uxlabꞌal chawe?
Then answered the Jews, and said to him, Do we not rightly affirm, that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?
49 Ri Jesús xubꞌij: Man kꞌo taj jun itzel uxlabꞌal chwe. Xaq xwi kinqꞌijilaꞌj ri nuTat, ri ix kꞌut xaq xwi kiwesaj nukꞌixibꞌal.
Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye dishonour me.
50 Man are ta kintzukuj kinya nuqꞌij chibꞌil wibꞌ, xane kꞌo jun ri karaj kaya uqꞌij, are riꞌ ri Qꞌatal tzij.
But I seek not my own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, If any man observe my saying, he shall never see death to all eternity. (aiōn g165)
52 Ri winaq aꞌj Israel xkibꞌij: Chanim qas kaqakojo chi qas kꞌo jun itzel uxlabꞌal chawe. Xkam ri Abraham, xekam xuqujeꞌ konojel ri e qꞌalajisal taj utzij ri Dios, ri at kꞌut kabꞌij chi we kakojon jun che ri atzij, man kakam taj. (aiōn g165)
Then said the Jews to him, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If any man observe my word, he shall never taste of death to eternity. (aiōn g165)
53 ¿La at ta kꞌut at nabꞌyal cho ri qatat Abraham? Areꞌ xkamik, xekꞌam xuqujeꞌ konojel ri e qꞌalajisal taj utzij ri Dios. ¿Jachin kabꞌij at katuxik?
Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?
54 Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: Man kꞌo ta kutayij riꞌ we xaq in kinya nuqꞌij chibꞌil wibꞌ. Ri kayoꞌw nuqꞌij in are ri nuTat ri kibꞌij ix iDios che,
Jesus answered, If I assume glory to myself, my glory is nothing: it is the Father who glorifies me; of whom ye say, that he is your God:
55 pune man iwetaꞌm uwach. Ri in kꞌut wetaꞌm uwach. We kinbꞌij chiꞌwe chi man wetaꞌm taj uwach, in jun bꞌanal tzij riꞌ jetaq ri ix. Ri in kꞌut wetaꞌm uwach xuqujeꞌ kinbꞌan ri kubꞌij ri utzij.
yet have ye not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, that I know him not, I should be like you, a liar: but I know him, and observe his word.
56 Ri itat Abraham sibꞌalaj xkiꞌkotik are xuchomaj chi karil na ri nuqꞌij, are xrilo sibꞌalaj xkiꞌkotik.
Your father Abraham exulted for joy that he should see this day of mine: and saw it, and rejoiced.
57 Ri winaq aꞌj Israel xkibꞌij che: Majaꞌ ne katzꞌaqat nikꞌaj ciento ajunabꞌ, ¿are ta kꞌu riꞌ kabꞌij chi xawil uwach ri Abraham?
Then said the Jews unto him, Thou hast not yet reached the age of fifty, and hast thou seen Abraham?
58 Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: Qas tzij kinbꞌij chiꞌwe: Are taq majaꞌ kakꞌojiꞌ ri Abraham, In Riꞌ.
Jesus said unto them, Before Abraham had a being, I Am.
59 Xepe kꞌu ri winaq aꞌj Israel, xkisikꞌ abꞌaj rech kakikoj che ri Jesús. Ri Jesús kꞌut xrawaj ribꞌ, maj jun xilowik are xel bꞌik pa ri Templo.
Then took they up stones to hurl at him: but Jesus was hid, and went out of the temple, passing through the midst of them, and so went away.
