Lucas 14
1 Jun qꞌij rech uxlanem, ri Jesús xeꞌwoꞌk cho rachoch jun kinimaꞌqil ri fariseo, e kꞌo chi kꞌu nikꞌaj fariseos ri tajin kakiwalwechij ri jastaq ri kubꞌan ri Jesús.
When he went into the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees on a Sabbath to eat bread, they were watching him.
2 Jun achi kꞌut ri kꞌo sipoj che kꞌo chilaꞌ cho ri Jesús.
Behold, a certain man who had dropsy was in front of him.
3 Ri Jesús kꞌut xuta chike ri aꞌjtijabꞌ rech ri taqanik xuqujeꞌ ri fariseos. ¿La yaꞌtalik kabꞌan kunanik pa ri qꞌij rech uxlanem?
Jesus, answering, spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”
4 Maj kꞌu jun xchꞌawik chike ri e kꞌo chilaꞌ. Ri Jesús kꞌut xukꞌam apanoq ri yawabꞌ, xukunaj bꞌik, kꞌa te riꞌ xutaq bꞌik cho rachoch.
But they were silent. He took him, and healed him, and let him go.
5 Xubꞌij xuqujeꞌ: We kꞌo jun chiꞌwe kꞌo jun ukꞌojol o wine kꞌo jun uwakax ri katzaq bꞌik pa jun jul, ¿la man aninaq keꞌresaj loq pune jun qꞌij rech uxlanem?
He answered them, “Which of you, if your son or an ox fell into a well, wouldn’t immediately pull him out on a Sabbath day?”
6 Maj kꞌu jas xekwinik xkibꞌij che.
They couldn’t answer him regarding these things.
7 Are xril ri Jesús jas ri kakibꞌan ri winaq ri e sikꞌital pa ri waꞌim chuchaꞌik ri sibꞌalaj utz taq kꞌolibꞌal chwi ri mexa, xutzijoj we jun kꞌambꞌejabꞌal noꞌj.
He spoke a parable to those who were invited, when he noticed how they chose the best seats, and said to them,
8 Are katsikꞌix pa jun nimaqꞌij rech kꞌulanem, man kattꞌuyiꞌ taj pa ri sibꞌalaj jeꞌl laj kꞌolibꞌal ri nim ubꞌantajik rumal cher rukꞌ jubꞌiqꞌ kꞌo chi na jun winaq sikꞌitalik ri sibꞌalaj kꞌo na uqꞌij chawach ri sikꞌitalik.
“When you are invited by anyone to a wedding feast, don’t sit in the best seat, since perhaps someone more honorable than you might be invited by him,
9 We jeriꞌ, kape riꞌ ri winaq ri xixsikꞌinik kubꞌij na chawe: “Chaya kan le atꞌuyulibꞌal che we achi riꞌ rukꞌ kꞌu kꞌixibꞌal riꞌ kateꞌ tꞌuyul pa ri kꞌisbꞌal tem.”
and he who invited both of you would come and tell you, ‘Make room for this person.’ Then you would begin, with shame, to take the lowest place.
10 Are katsikꞌixik pa jun nimaqꞌij, are utz we kattꞌuyiꞌ kan pa ri kꞌisbꞌal tem, rech are katril ri winaq ri xatsikꞌinik kubꞌij chawe: “Wech chꞌabꞌeꞌn chatqꞌax choch, kꞌo jun jeꞌl laj atꞌuyulibꞌal xaq awe at.” Xa jeriꞌ kanimarisax na aqꞌij chikiwach konojel ri e sikꞌitalik.
But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes, he may tell you, ‘Friend, move up higher.’ Then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at the table with you.
11 Xapachin kꞌu ri kunimarisaj ribꞌ kanitzꞌarisax na uqꞌij, xuqujeꞌ xapachin ri kunitzꞌarisaj na ribꞌ kanimarisax na uqꞌij.
For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.”
12 Kꞌa te riꞌ xubꞌij ri Jesús che ri winaq ri sikꞌininaq: Are kabꞌan jun tzuquꞌnijik o kaya ne jun rekeqꞌij, man are ta kaꞌsikꞌij ri awech chꞌabꞌeꞌn, xuqujeꞌ man are ta kaꞌsikꞌij ri awachalal, man are ta kaꞌsikꞌij ri uqꞌabꞌ taq alaxik awukꞌ, xuqujeꞌ man are ta kaꞌsikꞌij ri e qꞌinom taq aꞌkꞌulja. Rukꞌ jubꞌiqꞌ katsikꞌix chi kumal aꞌreꞌ kakitzalij la ukꞌaxel chawe.
He also said to the one who had invited him, “When you make a dinner or a supper, don’t call your friends, nor your brothers, nor your kinsmen, nor rich neighbors, or perhaps they might also return the favor, and pay you back.
13 Xane are kabꞌan nimaqꞌij, chaꞌsikꞌij ri e mebꞌaibꞌ, ri man e tzꞌaqat winaq taj, ri e chꞌokeꞌr, xuqujeꞌ e moyabꞌ.
But when you make a feast, ask the poor, the maimed, the lame, or the blind;
14 Utz kꞌu na awe we jeriꞌ kabꞌano, pune man kekwin taj katkitoj we winaq riꞌ chawe, kayaꞌtaj kꞌu na rajilal ukꞌaxelal chawe pa ri kꞌastajibꞌal ke ri e sukꞌ taq winaq.
and you will be blessed, because they don’t have the resources to repay you. For you will be repaid in the resurrection of the righteous.”
15 Are xutabꞌej rech ri jun achi ri tꞌuyul puꞌwiꞌ ri mexa, xubꞌij che ri Jesús: Sibꞌalaj utz rech ri kawaꞌ pa ri nimaqꞌij rech ri ajawarem rech ri Dios.
When one of those who sat at the table with him heard these things, he said to him, “Blessed is he who will feast in God’s Kingdom!”
16 Ri Jesús xubꞌij: Jun qꞌijal, kꞌo jun achi ri xuꞌsikꞌij sibꞌalaj e kꞌi winaq, xubꞌan kꞌut jun nimalaj nimaqꞌij.
But he said to him, “A certain man made a great supper, and he invited many people.
17 Pa ri qꞌotaj rech ri nimaqꞌij, xutaq bꞌik jun chike ri e patanil rech, xeꞌkibꞌij chike ri sikꞌital pa ri nimaqꞌij: “Ronojel xutzirik, chixanloq.”
He sent out his servant at supper time to tell those who were invited, ‘Come, for everything is ready now.’
18 Konojel kꞌut xok chutayik toqꞌobꞌ, ri nabꞌe xubꞌij, chakuyu numak, xa kꞌa te xinloqꞌ jubꞌiqꞌ wulew keꞌnwila kꞌu na,
They all as one began to make excuses. “The first said to him, ‘I have bought a field, and I must go and see it. Please have me excused.’
19 Ri jun chik xubꞌij, chakuyu numak xa kꞌa te xinloqꞌ e jobꞌ wok nuwakax rech chak, kubꞌeꞌn wi la na jas kechakunik.
“Another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I must go try them out. Please have me excused.’
20 Ri jun chik xubꞌij: Xa kꞌa te xinkꞌuliꞌk rumal riꞌ man kinkwin taj kineꞌek.
“Another said, ‘I have married a wife, and therefore I can’t come.’
21 Xtzalij kꞌu ri ajchak xuꞌtzaqa utaqkil che ri rajaw. Are xutabꞌej rech ri ajchoqꞌe ri ja xyojtajik, xusikꞌij kꞌu ri patanil rech xubꞌij che: Jat aninaq pa taq ri kꞌayibꞌal xuqujeꞌ xoꞌl taq ri ja, ja bꞌa kꞌamaloq ri e mebꞌaibꞌ xuqujeꞌ ri man e tzꞌaqat taq winaq taj, ri maj kaqꞌan, xuqujeꞌ ri e moy.
“That servant came, and told his lord these things. Then the master of the house, being angry, said to his servant, ‘Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in the poor, maimed, blind, and lame.’
22 Ri patanijel xubꞌij che ri rajaw: Xbꞌantaj ri xbꞌij la chwe, kꞌa kꞌo kꞌu na kꞌolibꞌal.
“The servant said, ‘Lord, it is done as you commanded, and there is still room.’
23 Ri rajaw xubꞌij che: Jat pa ri nima bꞌe xuqujeꞌ pa taq ri solibꞌal taq bꞌe, chakojo achuqꞌabꞌ, chikimulixik loq ri winaq rech kanoj ri wachoch.
“The lord said to the servant, ‘Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.
24 Qas kinbꞌij na chiꞌwe, maj jun chike riꞌ ri qas xeꞌnsikꞌij kakikiꞌkotebꞌej ri nunimaqꞌij.
For I tell you that none of those men who were invited will taste of my supper. For many are called, but few are chosen.’”
25 Ri Jesús kꞌut xtzalqꞌomij kukꞌ ri e sibꞌalaj kꞌi winaq ri e teren chirij xubꞌij chike:
Now great multitudes were going with him. He turned and said to them,
26 We kꞌu kꞌo jun ri karaj kuxik nutijoxel rajawaxik kꞌo na ri kubꞌan chinuloqꞌaxik chikiwach ri unan, rixoqil, e ralkꞌwaꞌl, e rachalal, ranabꞌ, xuqujeꞌ kinuloqꞌaj na in cho areꞌ. We man jewaꞌ kanoꞌjin ri winaq, man kakwin taj kux nutijoxel.
“If anyone comes to me, and doesn’t disregard his own father, mother, wife, children, brothers, and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he can’t be my disciple.
27 Ri man kareqaj ta ri ucheꞌ ripbꞌal xuqujeꞌ man kinutereneꞌj taj, man kakwin taj kuxik nutijoxel.
Whoever doesn’t bear his own cross and come after me, can’t be my disciple.
28 Qaꞌnampe che, kꞌo jun achi ri karaj kuyak jun nimalaj torre. ¿La man nabꞌe katꞌuyiꞌk chi rilik janipa kel wi ri kubꞌano, xuqujeꞌ we kꞌo nim urajil chukꞌisik ri chak?
For which of you, desiring to build a tower, doesn’t first sit down and count the cost, to see if he has enough to complete it?
29 Xaq kayoqꞌ riꞌ kumal konojel ri winaq ri kiꞌlowik we xwi kubꞌan ri utakꞌalibꞌal ri ja, man xkwin taj xukꞌiso.
Or perhaps, when he has laid a foundation and isn’t able to finish, everyone who sees begins to mock him,
30 “Man xkwin ta le kꞌin achi chukꞌisik ri xumajij,” kecha riꞌ ri winaq che.
saying, ‘This man began to build and wasn’t able to finish.’
31 Xuqujeꞌ qaꞌnampe che kꞌo jun taqanel kachꞌoꞌjin rukꞌ jun taqanel chik. ¿La man nabꞌe riꞌ katꞌuyiꞌ chi rilik la rukꞌ lajuj mil achyabꞌ kakwinik kachꞌoꞌjin rukꞌ ri ukꞌamom loq juwinaq mil achyabꞌ?
Or what king, as he goes to encounter another king in war, will not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand?
32 Kutaq bꞌik uꞌtaqoꞌn riꞌ rech keꞌkita jaꞌmaril che riꞌ ri taqanel are naj petinaq wi na, we karilo chi man kakwin taj kachꞌoꞌjin rukꞌ.
Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends an envoy and asks for conditions of peace.
33 Je xuqujeꞌ xapachin ri man kuya ta kan ronojel ri uqꞌinomal, man kakwin taj kux nutijoxel.
So therefore, whoever of you who doesn’t renounce all that he has, he can’t be my disciple.
34 Sibꞌalaj utz ri atzꞌam, we kꞌu kel ri utzayil ri atzꞌam, ¿la xaq jeꞌ kꞌu riꞌ utz na kanoꞌwik?
“Salt is good, but if the salt becomes flat and tasteless, with what do you season it?
35 Man kꞌo ta chi ne riꞌ kutayij, xa ta ne che ri ulew, xa ta ne che uqꞌayisal tikoꞌn, kakꞌyaq bꞌik riꞌ pa mes. Chutatabꞌej bꞌa ri kꞌo uxikin chutatabꞌexik.
It is fit neither for the soil nor for the manure pile. It is thrown out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
