< Juan 8 >

1 Xeꞌ kꞌu ri Jesús pa ri juyubꞌ Olivos.
but Yeshua 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.
Now very early in the morning, he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him, and he sat down and 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 the Pharisees brought a woman taken in adultery, and having set her in the midst,
4 Kꞌa te riꞌ xkibꞌij che ri Jesús: Ajtij, xriqitaj we ixoq riꞌ tajin kamakun kukꞌ achyabꞌ.
they said to him, "Teacher, we found this woman 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 in the Law, Mushe commanded us to stone such. So what do you say?"
6 Jewaꞌ xkibꞌij che rech kakikoj jun kꞌaꞌmabꞌal pa ubꞌe rech jeriꞌ kakimol umak. Ri Jesús kꞌut xchiqiꞌk, xuchapleꞌj tzꞌibꞌanem pa ri ulew.
Now they said this to test him, that they might have something to accuse him of. But Yeshua stooped down, and wrote on the ground with his finger.
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.
But when they continued asking him, he looked up and said to them, "He who is without sin among you, let him throw the first stone at her."
8 Ri Jesús xchiqiꞌ chi junmul xuchapleꞌj chik tzꞌibꞌanem pa ri ulew.
Again he stooped down, and with his finger 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 it, they went out one by one, beginning from the oldest, even to the last, and he was left alone with the woman where she was, in the middle.
10 Ri Jesús kꞌut xuta che ri ixoq: Ixoq, ¿jawjeꞌ e kꞌo wi ri kakiqꞌat tzij pa awiꞌ?
Then Yeshua, standing up, said to her, "Woman, where are they? Did no one condemn you?"
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.
And she said, "No one, Lord." And Yeshua said, "Neither do I condemn you. 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.
Again, therefore, Yeshua spoke to them, saying, "I am the light of the world. He who follows me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life."
13 Ri fariseos xkibꞌij che ri Jesús: Xaq at kaqꞌalajisaj awibꞌ maj kutayij ri qꞌalajisanik ri kabꞌano.
The Pharisees therefore said to him, "You testify about yourself. Your testimony is not valid."
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.
Yeshua answered them, "Even if I testify about myself, my testimony is true, for I know where I came from, and where I am going; but you do not know where I came from, or where I am going.
15 Ri ix kiqꞌat tzij rukꞌ ri ichomabꞌal rech uwachulew, ri in man kinqꞌat taj tzij puꞌwiꞌ jun chik.
You judge according to the flesh. I judge no one.
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.
Even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent me.
17 Pa ri itaqanik kubꞌij chi we e kebꞌ winaq kebꞌanow ri qꞌalajisanik, qas tzij riꞌ ri kakibꞌij.
It's also written in your Law that the testimony of two people is valid.
18 In kinqꞌalajisaj wibꞌ xuqujeꞌ ri Tataxel ri xintaqow loq kuya qꞌalajisanik chwij in.
I am one who testifies about myself, and the Father who sent me testifies about 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.
They said therefore to him, "Where is your Father?" Yeshua answered, "You know neither me, nor my Father. If you knew me, you would know 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.
Yeshua spoke these words in the treasury, as he taught in the temple. Yet no one arrested him, because his hour had 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.
Yeshua said therefore again to them, "I am going away, and you will seek me, and you will die in your sins. Where I go, you 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 Jewish leaders therefore said, "Will he kill himself, that he says, 'Where I am going, you 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.
He said to them, "You are from beneath. I am from above. You 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 to you that you will die in your sins; for unless you believe that I am he, you will 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 are you?" Yeshua said to them, "Just what I have been saying to you from the beginning.
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 judge concerning you. However he who sent me is true; and the things which I heard from him, these I say to the world."
27 Ri winaq kꞌut man xkichomaj taj chi ri Jesús are tajin kutzijoj rij ri uTat.
They did not understand that he spoke to them about 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.
Yeshua therefore said to them, "When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and I do nothing of myself, but as the Father taught me, I say these things.
29 Kꞌo wukꞌ ri xintaqow loq, man in uyaꞌom ta kanoq nutukel, jeriꞌ rumal are kinbꞌan ri kaqaj choch.
He who sent me is with me. The Father hasn't left me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to him."
30 Tajin katzijon na ri Jesús are xkichapleꞌj kojonem che e kꞌi winaq.
As he spoke these things, many believed in him.
31 Xubꞌij kꞌu ri Jesús chike ri winaq aꞌj Israel ri xekojon che: We qas kixjeqiꞌk pa ri nukꞌutuꞌn qas kixux riꞌ nutijoxelabꞌ.
Yeshua therefore said to those Yehudeans who had believed him, "If you remain in my word, then you are truly my disciples.
32 Kiwetaꞌmaj kꞌu na ri qas tzij, ri qas tzij kꞌut kubꞌan na chiꞌwe chi kixtzoqopitajik.
You will know the truth, and the truth will 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 Avraham's descendants, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How can you say, 'You will be made free?'"
34 Ri Jesús xubꞌij: Qas tzij kinbꞌij chiꞌwe xapachin ri kamakunik, riꞌ patanil rech ri mak.
Yeshua answered them, "Truly I tell you, everyone who commits 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)
A slave does not live in the house forever. A son remains forever. (aiōn g165)
36 We qas are ri Alkꞌwaꞌlaxel kixtzoqopinik, qas kixtzoqopitaj wi na.
So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.
37 Wetaꞌm in chi ix rijaꞌl ri Abraham, pune jeriꞌ are kiwaj kinikamisaj rumal cher man kiwaj taj kikꞌamawaꞌj ri nutzij.
I know that you are Avraham's descendants, yet you seek to kill me, because my word finds 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 say the things which I have seen with my Father; and you also do the things which you have heard from 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 him, "Our father is Avraham." Yeshua said to them, "If you were Avraham's children, you would do the works of Avraham.
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 you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth, which I heard from God. Avraham did not do this.
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.
You do the works of your father." They said to him, "We were not born of sexual immorality. We have one Father, 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.
Therefore Yeshua said to them, "If God were your father, you would love me, for I came out and have come from God. For I have not come of myself, but he sent me.
43 ¿Jas che man kichomaj taj ri kinbꞌij? Man kichomaj taj rumal man kikꞌamawaꞌj taj ri nutzij.
Why do you not understand my speech? Because you 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.
You are of your father, the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks on his own; for he is a liar, and its father.
45 Are kꞌu ri in man kinikoj taj pune are kinbꞌij chiꞌwe ri qas tzij.
But because I tell the truth, you do not believe me.
46 ¿Jachin chiꞌwe kakwin chukꞌutik chi in ajmak? We qas tzij ri kinbꞌij chiꞌwe, ¿jas kꞌu che kiwaj kinikamisaj?
Which of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you 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 who is of God hears the words of God. For this cause you do not hear, because you 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 the Yehudeans answered him, "Do not we say well that you are a Samaritan, and have a demon?"
49 Ri Jesús xubꞌij: Man kꞌo taj jun itzel uxlabꞌal chwe. Xaq xwi kinqꞌijilaꞌj ri nuTat, ri ix kꞌut xaq xwi kiwesaj nukꞌixibꞌal.
Yeshua answered, "I do not have a demon, but I honor my Father, and you dishonor me.
50 Man are ta kintzukuj kinya nuqꞌij chibꞌil wibꞌ, xane kꞌo jun ri karaj kaya uqꞌij, are riꞌ ri Qꞌatal tzij.
But I do not seek my own glory. There is one who seeks and judges.
51 Qas tzij kinbꞌij chiꞌwe, ri kubꞌan ri kubꞌij ri nutzij man kakam taj. (aiōn g165)
Truly, truly, I tell you, if a person keeps my word, he will never see death." (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 the Yehudeans said to him, "Now we know that you have a demon. Avraham died, and the prophets; and you say, 'If anyone keeps my word, he will never taste of death.' (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?
Are you greater than our father, Avraham, who died? The prophets died. Who do you make yourself out to be?"
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,
Yeshua answered, "If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father who glorifies me, of whom you say 'He is our 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.
You have not known him, but I know him. If I said, 'I do not know him,' I would be like you, a liar. But I know him, and keep his word.
56 Ri itat Abraham sibꞌalaj xkiꞌkotik are xuchomaj chi karil na ri nuqꞌij, are xrilo sibꞌalaj xkiꞌkotik.
Your father Avraham rejoiced to see my day. He saw it, and was glad."
57 Ri winaq aꞌj Israel xkibꞌij che: Majaꞌ ne katzꞌaqat nikꞌaj ciento ajunabꞌ, ¿are ta kꞌu riꞌ kabꞌij chi xawil uwach ri Abraham?
The Yehudeans therefore said to him, "You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Avraham?"
58 Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: Qas tzij kinbꞌij chiꞌwe: Are taq majaꞌ kakꞌojiꞌ ri Abraham, In Riꞌ.
Yeshua said to them, "Truly, truly, I tell you, before Avraham came into existence, 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.
Therefore they took up stones to throw at him, but Yeshua was concealed, and went out of the temple.
