< Lucas 12 >
1 Sibꞌalaj e kꞌi winaq kꞌut xkimulij kibꞌ, xaq kakitakꞌaleꞌla chi kibꞌ, xpe kꞌu ri Jesús xuchapleꞌj kichꞌabꞌexik, nabꞌe xubꞌij chike ri utijoxelabꞌ: Chichajij iwibꞌ che ri chꞌam kech ri fariseos, pa nikꞌaj tzij chik, ri kikawachil.
Meantime, while the crowd, in myriads flocked about him, so that they trod one upon another, he said, addressing himself to his disciples, Above all things, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.
2 Rumal chi maj jun jastaq ri man etaꞌmatal taj ri mat kilitaj na, xuqujeꞌ maj jun jastaq awatalik ri mat ketaꞌmataj na.
For there is nothing covered that shall not be detected: nothing secret that shall not be made known.
3 Rumal riꞌ ronojel ri ibꞌim pa ri qꞌequꞌmal katataj na cho ri utunal ri qꞌij, xuqujeꞌ ri ibꞌim chi awal are itzꞌapim ri uchiꞌ ja, karaqaqex na ubꞌixik puꞌwiꞌ taq ri ja.
What you have spoken in the dark, shall be reported in the light; what you have whispered in the closet, shall be proclaimed from the housetop.
4 Chiꞌwe ix wech chꞌabꞌeꞌn kinbꞌij man kixiꞌj ta iwibꞌ chike ri kekamisan ri ityoꞌjal, rumal xwi riꞌ kekwinik kakibꞌano.
But I charge you, my friends, fear not them who kill the body, and after that can do no more;
5 Kinbꞌij chiꞌwe jachin choch rajawaxik kixiꞌj wi iwibꞌ, chixiꞌj iwibꞌ choch ri are kesataj ri kꞌaslemal rumal, kꞌo ukwinem kixutaq bꞌik pa ri tyoꞌnel qꞌaqꞌ, jeꞌ cho areꞌ rajawaxik kixiꞌj wi iwibꞌ. (Geenna )
but I will show you whom you ought to fear; fear him, who, after he has killed, has power to cast into hell. I repeat it to you, Fear him. (Geenna )
6 ¿La man kebꞌ saqa pwaq kajil ri jobꞌ chochiꞌ? Pune jeriꞌ man kesachan ta che ri Dios.
Are not five sparrows sold for two pence? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God:
7 Rumal cher ri Dios rajilam ronojel ri ukꞌiyal ri iwiꞌ ri kꞌo pa ijolom, xaq jeriꞌ man kixiꞌj ta iwibꞌ.
yes, the very hairs of your head are all numbered: fear not, therefore; you are much more valuable than sparrows.
8 Kinbꞌij kꞌu chiꞌwe xapachin ri kinuqꞌalajisaj chikiwach ri winaq, kaqꞌalajisax xuqujeꞌ na uwach chikiwach ri angelibꞌ rech ri Dios rumal ri uKꞌojol ri Achi.
Moreover, I say to you, whoever shall acknowledge me before me, him the Son of Man will acknowledge before the angels of God;
9 Xapachin kꞌu ri karawaj nubꞌixik chkiwach ri winaq man kaqꞌalajisax ta ri ubꞌiꞌ chikiwach ri angelibꞌ rech ri Dios.
but whoever denies me before men, shall be disowned before the angels of God.
10 Xapachin ri kubꞌij jun itzel tzij che ri uKꞌojol ri Achi, kakuyutaj na. Are kꞌu ri winaq ri karetzelaj uwach ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel rukꞌ taq tzij, man kakuyutaj taj.
And whosoever shall inveigh against the Son of Man, may obtain remission; but to him who detracts from the Holy Spirit, there is no remission.
11 Are kixtakꞌatobꞌ pa ri Sinagoga xuqujeꞌ chikiwach ri qꞌatal taq tzij, xuqujeꞌ ri e taqanelabꞌ, man kakꞌaxkꞌobꞌ ta iwanimaꞌ chuchomaxik jas kibꞌan chutoꞌik iwibꞌ.
And when you are brought before synagogues, and magistrates, and rulers; be not solicitous how or what you shall answer, or what you shall say:
12 Are ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel kakꞌutuw chiꞌwach ri rajawaxik kibꞌij.
for the Holy Spirit will teach you in that moment, what ought to be said.
13 Kꞌo kꞌu jun achi chikixoꞌl ri winaq, xubꞌij che ri Jesús: Ajtij, bꞌij la che ri wachalal chujacha ri echabꞌal chiqawach.
Then one said to him out of the crowd, Rabbi, order my brother to divide the inheritance with me.
14 Ri Jesús kꞌut xubꞌij che: Achi, ¿jachin xbꞌin chawe chi in in qꞌatal tzij pa iwiꞌ?
He answered, Man, who constituted me your judge or arbiter?
15 Chichajij iwibꞌ che ri kꞌarkꞌatem rumal cher man are taj ri ukꞌiyal ri uqꞌinomal ri winaq ri kayoꞌw ukꞌaslemal.
And he said to them, Be upon your guard against covetousness; for in whatever affluence a man be, his life depends not on his possessions.
16 Xutzijoj kꞌu chike we jun kꞌambꞌejabꞌal noꞌj riꞌ: Kꞌo jun qꞌinom achi, ri sibꞌalaj xwachin ri rulew.
He also used this example, A certain rich man had lands which brought forth plentifully.
17 Xuchomaj kꞌut: “¿Jas kinbꞌano? ¿Jawjeꞌ kinyak wi ronojel ri nutikoꞌn ri xwachinik?”
And he reasoned thus with himself, What shall I do? for I have not where to store my crop.
18 Kꞌisbꞌal rech xubꞌij: “Wetaꞌm jas kinbꞌano, kintukij na ri nukꞌolibꞌal jawjeꞌ ri kinyak wi ri uwach ri nutikoꞌn, kinyak chi na jun sibꞌalaj nim cho ri kꞌo kan nabꞌe, rech utz kinbꞌan chuyakik ronojel ri nutikoꞌn.
I will do this, added he; I will pull down my storehouses, and build larger, and there I will store all my produce, and my goods.
19 Kinbꞌij kꞌu na, wanimaꞌ sibꞌalaj kꞌi ajastaq rech kꞌi junabꞌ yakalik. Xaq bꞌa chatuxlanoq, chatwoꞌq, chatqumunoq, chakiꞌkotebꞌej ri kꞌaslemal.”
And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast plenty of goods laid up for many years; take thin ease, eat, drink, enjoy thyself.
20 Xubꞌij kꞌu ri Dios che: “¡Konalaj achi! Chaqꞌabꞌ kamik katkamik. ¿Jachin kꞌu pa uqꞌabꞌ kakanaj wi kan ri ajastaq ri amulim?”
But God said to him, Fool! this very night your soul is required of you. Whose, then, shall those things be, which you have provided?
21 Jewaꞌ kakꞌulmataj kukꞌ ri winaq ri kakimulij qꞌinomal xaq ke aꞌreꞌ, man are ta kakitzukuj kuꞌx qꞌinomabꞌ cho ri Dios.
So it fares with him who amasses treasure for himself, but is not rich toward God.
22 Kꞌa te riꞌ xubꞌij ri Jesús chike ri utijoxelabꞌ: Rumal riꞌ kinbꞌij chiꞌwe we are ri Dios yoꞌwinaq ri ikꞌaslemal, are xuqujeꞌ kayoꞌw na ri iwa, we are ri Dios yoꞌwinaq ri ityoꞌjal are xuqujeꞌ kayoꞌw na ri iwatzꞌyaq.
Then he said to his disciples, For this reason I charge you, be not anxious about your life, what you shall eat; nor about your body, what you shall wear.
23 Are nim na rajil ri kꞌaslemal cho ri tijowik rij, je xuqujeꞌ are nim ubꞌanik ri ityoꞌjal cho ri iwatzꞌyaq.
Life is a greater gift than food, and the body than clothing.
24 ¡Chiꞌwilampe ri joj! Man keꞌtikoꞌnij taj, xuqujeꞌ man kejachꞌan taj, xuqujeꞌ Man kꞌo ta kikaxon chuyakik ri kakijachꞌo. Pune jeriꞌ, ri Dios kuya kiwa. Ix kꞌut ix kꞌo na chikiwach ri aꞌwaj ri kerapinik.
Consider the ravens: they neither sow nor reap; have neither cellar nor barn; but God feeds them. How much more valuable are you than fowls?
25 ¿Jachin ta kꞌu chiꞌwe rukꞌ ri kakꞌaxkꞌobꞌ ukꞌuꞌx kakwinik kuya jubꞌiqꞌ uwiꞌ ri ukꞌaslemal?
Besides, which of you can, by his anxiety, prolong his life one hour?
26 ¿Jas che kakꞌaxkꞌobꞌ ikꞌuꞌx chike nikꞌaj winaq chik, la man kinaꞌo chi man kixkwin ta chubꞌanik xa ta ne jun nitzꞌ laj jastaq?
If, therefore, you can not thus effect even the smallest thing, why are you anxious about the rest?
27 Chiwilampeꞌ ri kotzꞌiꞌj, man kechakun taj, man kakisol ta bꞌatzꞌ, pune jeriꞌ, ri Salomón rukꞌ ronojel ri ujuluwem man xkwin taj je xatzꞌyaqinik jetaq ri aꞌreꞌ.
Consider the lilies. How do they grow? They toil not; they spin not; yet I affirm, that even Solomon, in all his glory, was not equally adorned with one of these.
28 We jeriꞌ kubꞌan ri Dios kukꞌ ri qꞌayes, ri tikil kamik cho ri saq chweꞌq kꞌut kaporoxik, are kꞌu mat kuya iwatzꞌyaq ix, winaq ri xa nitzꞌ ikojobꞌal.
If, then, God so array the herbage, which to-day is in the field, and to-morrow is cast into the oven; how much more will he array you, O you distrustful!
29 Xaq jeriꞌ man kakꞌaxkꞌobꞌ ta ikꞌuꞌx che ri kitijo xuqujeꞌ ri kiqumuj, chixtanal che uchomaxik rij.
Do not ask, therefore, what you shall eat, or what you shall drink; live not in anxious suspense.
30 Ri winaq aꞌjuwachulew are kitereneꞌm utzukuxik ronojel waꞌ we jastaq riꞌ, ri iTat kꞌut retaꞌm chi rajawaxik ronojel waꞌ we jastaq riꞌ chiꞌwe.
For all these things the Pagans seeks; whereas, your Father knows that you need them.
31 Are chitzukuj ix ri rawajarem ri Dios, xaq kꞌu katerebꞌax na uyaꞌik ronojel waꞌ we jastaq riꞌ chiꞌwe.
But seek you the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be superadded to you.
32 Ri utz laj urayibꞌal ukꞌuꞌx ri Tataxel are chi kuya na ri ajawarem chiꞌwe, man kixiꞌj ta bꞌa iwibꞌ alaj taq nuchij.
Fear not, my little flock, for it has pleased your Father to give you the kingdom.
33 Chikꞌayij ri ijastaq rech kiya kirajil ri kajawataj chike. Chiloqꞌo yakbꞌal irajil ri man kajar taj, chimulij ri iqꞌinomal chilaꞌ chikaj, jawjeꞌ e maj wi eleqꞌomabꞌ, xuqujeꞌ maj iꞌxjut kok che.
Sell your goods and give alms; provide yourselves purses which wear not out; treasure inexhaustible in heaven, where no thieves approach, where nothing is spoiled by worms.
34 Rumal ri iwanimaꞌ kakꞌojiꞌ na jawjeꞌ ri kꞌo wi ri iqꞌinomal.
For where your treasure is, your heart will likewise be.
35 Chitzija bꞌa ri qꞌaqꞌ tunabꞌal, chisukꞌumaj iwibꞌ, chikojo ri iwatzꞌyaq ri jas xaqareꞌ chiꞌwe.
Let your loins be girt, and your lamps burning;
36 Je chixnoꞌjinoq jetaq ri kakibꞌan ri ajchakibꞌ aninaq kakijaq ri uchiꞌ ja cho ri kipatrón ri upetik pa ri nimaqꞌij rech jun kꞌulanem.
and yourselves, like those who wait their master's return from the wedding; that when he comes and knocks, they may immediately let him in.
37 Utz ke ri patanijelabꞌ ri kuleꞌriqitajoq kayeꞌm apanoq ri kajaw. Qas kinbꞌij chiꞌwe, are kul ri kajaw kukꞌex riꞌ ri ratzꞌyaq, kuꞌtaq pa tꞌuyulem ri e rajchakibꞌ, xuqujeꞌ kok chikipatanixik.
Happy those servants whom their master, at his return, shall find watching. Indeed, I say to you, that he will gird himself, and having placed them at table, will attend and serve them.
38 Jeꞌ, utz ke ri ajchakibꞌ ri pune nikꞌaj aqꞌabꞌ, o sibꞌalaj aqꞌabꞌ kisukꞌumam apanoq kibꞌ are kuleꞌriqitajoq.
And whether he comes in the second watch, or in the third, if he finds things thus, happy are those servants.
39 Chichꞌobꞌo kꞌu rij we riꞌ, we kꞌo jun ajchoqꞌe jun ja ri retaꞌm jas qꞌotaj kok ri elaqꞌom pa ri rachoch, kakꞌasiꞌ riꞌ chuchajixik rech man kok ta ri elaqꞌom pa ri ja.
You are certain that if the master of the house knew at what hour the thief would come, he would watch, and not allow him to break into his house.
40 Rajawaxik je kibꞌan apanoq ix, rumal chi ri uKꞌojol ri Achi kapetik are man ichomanik ta apanoq.
Be you, then, always prepared; because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you are not expecting him.
41 Are kꞌu ri Pedro xubꞌij che ri Jesús: Ajawxel ¿la chike konojel le winaq katzijoj wi la we kꞌambꞌejabꞌal noꞌj riꞌ o xaq chaqe uj?
Then Peter said to him, Master, is this parable directed to us alone, or to all?
42 Xubꞌij ri Jesús: ¿La kariqitaj jun utz laj patanijel ri kꞌo retaꞌmabꞌal, kachilibꞌex kan che kuya kiwa ri ajchakibꞌ pa ri kꞌyaqalik qꞌotaj?
The Lord said, Who, now, is the discreet and faithful steward, whom the master will set over his household, to dispense regularly the allowance of corn!
43 Utz rech ri ajchak ri are katzalij loq ri rajaw tajin kubꞌan apanoq ri upatan.
Happy that servant, if his master, at his arrival, shall find him so employed.
44 Qas kinbꞌij chiꞌwe, riꞌ ri winaq riꞌ kukoj che chajil rech ronojel ri ujastaq.
I tell you truly, he will intrust him with the management of all his estate.
45 Jas kꞌu kakꞌulmataj riꞌ we kuchomaj ri ajchak chi kabꞌeyetaj riꞌ ri wajaw, kuchapleꞌj kꞌut kichꞌayik ri ajchakibꞌ achyabꞌ xuqujeꞌ ixoqibꞌ, kuchapleꞌj waꞌim xuqujeꞌ qꞌabꞌarik.
But as to the servant who shall say within himself, My master delays his return, and shall beat the men-servants and the maids, and shall feast, and carouse, and be drunken;
46 Katzalij kꞌu loq ri rajaw we ajchak riꞌ, pa ri qꞌij xuqujeꞌ pa ri qꞌotaj ri man ayeꞌtal ta apanoq rumal ri rajchak, kaqꞌat kꞌu na tzij puꞌwiꞌ jetaq ri kabꞌan chike ri man e kojonelabꞌ taj.
the master of that servant will come on a day when he is not expecting him, and at an hour of which he is not apprised, and having discarded him, will assign him his portion with the faithless.
47 Kul chꞌaya kꞌu na ri patanijel ri man ubꞌanom ta apanoq jas ri karaj ri patrón.
And that servant who knew his master's will, yet did not make himself ready, nor execute his orders, shall receive many stripes;
48 Ri patanijel kꞌut ri man retaꞌm taj jas ri rayibꞌal ukꞌuꞌx ri rajaw, kubꞌan kꞌu apanoq jun jastaq ri man utz taj, kaqꞌat tzij riꞌ puꞌwiꞌ xa kꞌu man sibꞌalaj kꞌax taj kabꞌan che. Ri nim yaꞌtal che, nim na katoqꞌix che, xuqujeꞌ ri nim kuꞌlibꞌal kuꞌx yaꞌtal che, sibꞌalaj nim na kata che.
whereas, he who knew not, but did things deserving chastisement, shall receive few: for much will be required of every one to whom much is given; and the more a man is intrusted, the more will be exacted from him.
49 Nukꞌamom la in qꞌaqꞌ cho ri uwachulew, kꞌo ta bꞌa ne wi kajinin chik.
I came to throw fire upon the earth; and what would I but that it were kindled?
50 Xa kꞌu kinikꞌow na pa ri jun kꞌax laj etabꞌal jetaq ri kabꞌan che ri qasanaꞌ, kꞌaxkꞌobꞌinaq kꞌu ri wanimaꞌ, kꞌa pa ri qꞌij ri kakꞌulmataj na we jastaq riꞌ.
I have an immersion to undergo; and how am I pained till it be accomplished?
51 ¿Teꞌq pa ikꞌuꞌx ix chi jaꞌmaril nukꞌamom la cho ri uwachulew? Man je ta kꞌu riꞌ, tukinem nukꞌamom loq.
Do you imagine that I am come to give peace to the earth? I tell you, No; but division.
52 Kamik kꞌut kachapleꞌtaj bꞌik ri paꞌin ibꞌ pa ri ja kꞌolibꞌal, jawjeꞌ ri e kꞌo wi jobꞌ winaq, oꞌxibꞌ kakibꞌan na kikꞌulel chike ri e kebꞌ, xuqujeꞌ ri e kebꞌ winaq kuꞌx na kikꞌulel ri oxibꞌ.
For hereafter, five in one family will be divided; three against two, and two against three:
53 Kechꞌoꞌjin na ri tat rukꞌ ri ukꞌojol, ri kꞌojolaxel kachꞌoꞌjin na rukꞌ ri utat, ri nan kachꞌoꞌjin na rukꞌ ri ral ali, xuqujeꞌ ri ali kachꞌoꞌjin na rukꞌ ri unan. Ri alibꞌ chuchuꞌ kachꞌoꞌjin na rukꞌ ri ralibꞌ ali, xuqujeꞌ ri alibꞌatz kachꞌoꞌjin na rukꞌ ri ralibꞌ ixoq.
father against son, and son against father; mother against daughter, and daughter against mother; mother-in-law against daughter-in-law, and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.
54 Xuqujeꞌ xubꞌij ri Jesús chike ri sibꞌalaj e kꞌi winaq: Kibꞌij ix chi kubꞌan jabꞌ are xaq kꞌa teꞌ kiwilo kapaqiꞌ la jun sutzꞌ, qas je kꞌu wi riꞌ kakꞌulmatajik.
He said also to the people, When you see a cloud rising in the west, you say, It will rain immediately, and so it happens;
55 Are kape ri kyaqiqꞌ chuxukut ulew ri kajichꞌichꞌik kubꞌan qꞌaqꞌ waꞌ kixcha ix, qas je kꞌu wi riꞌ kakꞌulmatajik.
and when the south wind blows, you say, It will be hot, and it happens accordingly.
56 Kawach taq winaq, iwetaꞌm kichꞌobꞌ rij ri kakꞌulmataj cho ri kaj xuqujeꞌ cho ri uwachulew. ¿Jas kꞌu che man kixkwin taj kisol rij ri qꞌotaj ri uj kꞌo wi kamik?
Hypocrites, you can judge of what appears in the sky, and on the earth; how is it that you can not judge of the present time?
57 ¿Jas che man kichomaj taj ri qas sukꞌ ubꞌanik?
and why do you not, even of yourselves, discern what is just?
58 We kꞌo ne jun akꞌulel, ri rumal re kꞌa te cho ri qꞌatbꞌal tzij, chatzukuj jas kabꞌan che utayik toqꞌobꞌ che pa ri bꞌe, rech man katukꞌam ta bꞌik cho ri qꞌatal tzij, riꞌ ri qꞌatal tzij katuya bꞌik puꞌqꞌabꞌ ri katkꞌamow bꞌik pa cheꞌ rech katok kanoq pa cheꞌ.
When you go with your creditor to the magistrate, endeavor, on the road, to satisfy him, lest he drag you before the judge, and the judge consign you to the sergeant, and the sergeant commit you to prison:
59 Kinbꞌij kꞌu chawe chi we man katoj kan ri kꞌisbꞌal centaw akꞌas, man katel ta la riꞌ chilaꞌ.
I assure you, you will not be released until you have paid the last mite.
