< Lucas 9 >

1 Ri Jesús xuꞌsikꞌij ri kabꞌlajuj utijoxelabꞌ, xuya kwinem chike chi resaxik ronojel ri itzel taq uxlabꞌal xuqujeꞌ chukunaxik yabꞌilal.
Then calling the Twelve together He conferred on them power and authority over all the demons and to cure diseases;
2 Xuꞌtaq bꞌik chutzijoxik ri ajawarem rech ri Dios, xuqujeꞌ chikikunaxik ri yawabꞌibꞌ
and sent them out to proclaim the Kingdom of God and to cure the sick.
3 Xubꞌij ri Jesús chike: Mikꞌam bꞌik jun jastaq ri kajawataj chiꞌwe pa ri bꞌe, mikꞌam bꞌik ichꞌamiꞌy, ichim, ikaxlan wa, irajil, xuqujeꞌ mikꞌam bꞌik kebꞌ wok iwatzꞌyaq.
And He commanded them, "Take nothing for your journey; neither stick nor bag nor bread nor money; and do not have an extra under garment.
4 Chixkanaj kanoq pa japachike ja ri kixok wi, chixkꞌol chilaꞌ kꞌa chixel na loq pa ri tinimit.
Whatever house you enter, make that your home, and from it start afresh.
5 We man kixkꞌamawaꞌx pa jun tinimit, chitota kan ri ulew che ri iwaqan are kixel la chilaꞌ, jeriꞌ kiqꞌalajisaj chi man xixkꞌamawaꞌx taj.
Wherever they refuse to receive you, as you leave that town shake off the very dust from your feet as a protest against them."
6 Xebꞌe kꞌut ri tijoxelabꞌ, xkitzijoj ri utz laj tzij pa taq ronojel ri leꞌaj, xuqujeꞌ xeꞌkikunaj ri winaq.
So they departed and visited village after village, spreading the Good News and performing cures everywhere.
7 Ri nim taqanel Herodes Tetrarca xretaꞌmaj ronojel ri tajin kakꞌulmatajik. Xmayijanik rumal cher e kꞌo jujun winaq kakibꞌij chi xkꞌastaj ri Juan Bꞌanal qasanaꞌ.
Now Herod the Tetrarch heard of all that was going on; and he was bewildered because of its being said by some that John had come back to life,
8 E kꞌo xuqujeꞌ kebꞌinik are Elías xukꞌut ribꞌ, e jujun xuqujeꞌ kakibꞌij jun laꞌ chike ri najtir taq qꞌalajisal rech ri utzij ri Dios ri xkꞌastaj loq.
by others that Elijah had appeared, and by others that some one of the ancient Prophets had come back to life.
9 Xubꞌij ri Herodes: In xintaqan chi resaxik ri ujolom ri Juan. ¿Jachin ta kꞌu waꞌ we achi riꞌ we kabꞌanow taq we jastaq riꞌ? Are kꞌu karaj karil uwach ri Jesús.
And Herod said, "John I have beheaded; but who is this, of whom I hear such reports?" And he sought for an opportunity of seeing Jesus.
10 Are xetzalij loq ri tijoxelabꞌ, xkitzijoj che ri Jesús ri xkibꞌano. Ri Jesús xuꞌkꞌam bꞌik, xebꞌe kitukel pa ri tinimit Betsaida.
The Apostles, on their return, related to Jesus all they had done. Then He took them and withdrew to a quiet retreat, to a town called Bethsaida.
11 Ri winaq are xketaꞌmaj jawjeꞌ xeꞌ wi ri Jesús xkitereneꞌj bꞌik. Xuꞌkꞌamawaꞌj kꞌu ri Jesús, xutzijoj ri ajawarem ri Dios chike, xuqujeꞌ xuꞌkunaj ri kajawataj kunanik chike.
But the immense crowd, aware of this, followed Him; and receiving them kindly He proceeded to speak to them of the Kingdom of God, and those who needed to be restored to health, He cured.
12 Are xqaj qꞌij, xeqet ri tijoxelabꞌ rukꞌ, xkibꞌij che: Cheꞌtaqa la bꞌik ri winaq pa taq ri naqaj taq tinimit chutzukuxik kiwa xuqujeꞌ jun kꞌolibꞌal jawjeꞌ kekanaj wi kanoq, maj kariqitaj waral jawjeꞌ ri uj kꞌo wi.
Now when the day began to decline, the Twelve came to Him and said, "Send the people away, that they may go to the villages and farms round about and find lodging and a supply of food; because here we are in an uninhabited district."
13 Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: Chiꞌtzuqu ix. Ri tijoxelabꞌ xkibꞌij: Xaq xwi jobꞌ kaxlan wa xuqujeꞌ kebꞌ kar kꞌo qukꞌ, o are kaj la keꞌqaloqꞌo la kiwa konojel we winaq ri.
"You yourselves," He said, "must give them food." "We have nothing," they replied, "but five loaves and a couple of fish, unless indeed we were to go and buy provisions for all this host of people."
14 Jewaꞌ xkibꞌij rumal cher xkilo chi e jobꞌ mil achyabꞌ e kꞌolik, ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: Chibꞌij chike ketꞌuyiꞌ pa puq rech nikꞌaj ciento.
(For there were about 5,000 adult men.) But He said to His disciples, "Make them sit down in parties of about fifty each."
15 Jewaꞌ xkibꞌan ri tijoxelabꞌ xeꞌkitaq konojel ri winaq rech ketꞌuyiꞌk.
They did so, making them all, without exception, sit down.
16 Xukꞌam ri Jesús ri jobꞌ kaxlan wa xuqujeꞌ ri kebꞌ kar, xkaꞌy chikaj, xutewechiꞌj, xupirij. Kꞌa te riꞌ xuya chike ri utijoxelabꞌ rech kakijach chike ri winaq.
Then He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to Heaven He blessed them and broke them into portions which He gave to the disciples to distribute to the people.
17 Konojel ri winaq xewaꞌik xuqujeꞌ xenojik, are xkimulij ri chꞌaqaꞌp taq kaxlan wa, kabꞌlajuj chakach xmulitajik.
So they ate and were fully satisfied, all of them; and what they had remaining over was gathered up, twelve baskets of fragments.
18 Jun qꞌijal are tajin kubꞌan chꞌawem ri Jesús, e rachiꞌl ri utijoxelabꞌ xuta chike: ¿In jachin in kakibꞌij ri winaq?
One day when He was praying by Himself the disciples were present; and He asked them, "Who do the people say that I am?"
19 Ri utijoxelabꞌ xkibꞌij che: E kꞌo jujun kakibꞌij chi lal lal Juan Bꞌanal qasanaꞌ, e jujun chik kakibꞌij chi lal lal Elías, e jujun chik kakibꞌij chi lal jun chike ri e najtir taq tzijol rech ri utzij ri Dios, ri xkꞌastaj loq.
"John the Baptist," they replied; "but others say Elijah; and others that some one of the ancient Prophets has come back to life."
20 Ri Jesús xuta chike: In ¿jachin kꞌu in kibꞌij ix? Lal lal Cristo rech ri Dios, xcha ri Pedro.
"But you," He asked, "who do you say that I am?" "God's Anointed One," replied Peter.
21 Ri Jesús xuꞌpixibꞌaj ri utijoxelabꞌ rech man kakitzijoj taj we riꞌ che jachinaq. Xubꞌij xuqujeꞌ chike:
And Jesus strictly forbad them to tell this to any one;
22 Ri uKꞌojol ri Achi kuriq na kꞌax, ketzelax na uwach kumal ri e kꞌamal taq bꞌe, ri e kinimaꞌqil ri e bꞌanal taq chꞌawem cho ri Dios xuqujeꞌ ri aꞌjtijabꞌ rech ri taqanik. Sibꞌalaj choqꞌaqꞌ wi chi kakamisax na churox qꞌij kꞌut kakꞌastaj uwach.
and He said, "The Son of Man must suffer much cruelty, be rejected by the Elders and High Priests and Scribes, and be put to death, and on the third day be raised to life again."
23 Xubꞌij kꞌu chike konojel: We kꞌo jun karaj kubꞌan nutijoxel, mubꞌan ri urayinik, ronojel qꞌij reqaj ri ucheꞌ ripbꞌal xuqujeꞌ chinutereneꞌj.
And He said to all, "If any one is desirous of following me, let him ignore self and take up his cross day by day, and so be my follower.
24 Xapachin ri karaj kukol ri ukꞌaslemal, kasach na uwach riꞌ. Xapachin kꞌu ri kuya ri ukꞌaslemal wumal we kakolotaj na riꞌ.
For whoever desires to save his life shall lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake shall save it.
25 ¿Jas kutayij che ri achi kuchꞌek ronojel ri qꞌinomal rech ri uwachulew kꞌa te riꞌ ke pa jun alik kaxkꞌolal?
Why, what benefit is it to a man to have gained the whole world, but to have lost or forfeited his own self.
26 We kꞌo jun kakꞌix chwe, xuqujeꞌ kukꞌixibꞌej ri nutzij, kakꞌix xuqujeꞌ na ri uKꞌojol ri Achi che are kape pa ri ujuluwem xuqujeꞌ pa ri ujuluwem ri Tataxel xuqujeꞌ kech ri Tyoxalaj taq angelibꞌ.
For whoever shall have been ashamed of me and my teachings, of him the Son of Man will be ashamed when He comes in His own and the Father's glory and in that of the holy angels.
27 Kinbꞌij xuqujeꞌ chiꞌwe chi e kꞌo winaq ri e kꞌo waral man kekam ta na, we man nabꞌe kakil ri ajawarem rech ri Dios.
I tell you truly that there are some of those who stand here who will certainly not taste death till they have seen the Kingdom of God."
28 Wajxaqibꞌ qꞌij ubꞌim ri Jesús we jastaq riꞌ, xpaqꞌi puꞌwiꞌ jun juyubꞌ chubꞌanik chꞌawem, e rachiꞌl ri Pedro, ri Juan xuqujeꞌ ri Jacobo.
It was about eight days after this that Jesus, taking with Him Peter, John, and James, went up the mountain to pray.
29 Tajin kubꞌan chꞌawem are xkꞌexkꞌobꞌ ri upalaj, xsaqir ri ratzꞌyaq xuqujeꞌ xuchapleꞌj chuplinem.
And while He was praying the appearance of His face underwent a change, and His clothing became white and radiant.
30 Xkikꞌut xuqujeꞌ kibꞌ e kebꞌ achyabꞌ ketzijon rukꞌ ri Jesús, are Moisés rachiꞌl Elías.
And suddenly there were two men conversing with Him, who were Moses and Elijah.
31 Sibꞌalaj jeꞌl ri ujuluwem ri kipalaj. Ketzijon rukꞌ ri Jesús, puꞌwiꞌ ri ukamikal ri kakꞌulmataj na pa ri tinimit Jerusalén.
They came in glory, and kept speaking about His death, which He was so soon to undergo in Jerusalem.
32 Ri Pedro kꞌut xuqujeꞌ ri e rachiꞌl e kaminaq che waram, are xekꞌastaj qꞌanoq, xeꞌkil we kebꞌ winaq riꞌ xuqujeꞌ ri ujuluwem.
Now Peter and the others were weighed down with sleep; but, keeping themselves awake all through, they saw His glory, and the two men standing with Him.
33 Are kakibꞌan bꞌenam ri e kebꞌ achyabꞌ, xpe ri Pedro, xuchapleꞌj chꞌawem pune man qas ta kuchomaj jas ri tajin kubꞌij: Ajtij, utz waꞌ kujkanaj waral. Kaqayaq oxibꞌ alaj taq ja, jun ech la, jun rech le Moisés, xuqujeꞌ jun rech le Elías.
And when they were preparing to depart from Him, Peter said to Jesus, "Rabbi, we are thankful to you that we are here. Let us put up three tents--one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah." He did not know what he was saying.
34 Tajin kachꞌaw na are xaq kꞌa te xpe jun sutzꞌ xechꞌuqutaj chupam, xkixiꞌj kꞌu kibꞌ.
But while he was thus speaking, there came a cloud which spread over them; and they were awe-struck when they had entered into the cloud.
35 Xpe kꞌu jun chꞌabꞌal pa ri sutzꞌ kubꞌij: Are waꞌ ri loqꞌalaj nukꞌojol, chitatabꞌej ri kubꞌij.
Then there came a voice from within the cloud: "This is My Son, My Chosen One: listen to Him."
36 Are xtaniꞌ ri chꞌabꞌal, xebꞌe ri e rachiꞌl ri Jesús. Maj kꞌu jachin che xkitzijoj wi ri tijoxelabꞌ ri xkilo.
After this voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone. They kept it to themselves, and said not a word to any one at that time about what they had seen.
37 Chukabꞌ qꞌij, are xeqaj loq puꞌwiꞌ ri juyubꞌ, e kꞌi winaq xeꞌl bꞌik chi kikꞌulaxik.
On the following day, when they were come down from the mountain, a great crowd came to meet Him;
38 Kꞌo kꞌu jun achi chikixoꞌl ri winaq, ko xchꞌawik, xubꞌij: Ajtij, bꞌana la jun toqꞌobꞌ chwe, toꞌo la le nukꞌojol.
and a man from the crowd called out, "Rabbi, I beg you to pity my son, for he is my only child.
39 Kꞌo jun itzel uxlabꞌal che, xaq kꞌa teꞌ kuraqaqej uchiꞌ, katontiꞌrik, kawusuw upuꞌchiꞌ. Tajin kubꞌan kꞌax che.
At times a spirit seizes him and he suddenly cries out. It convulses him, and makes him foam at the mouth, and does not leave him till it has well-nigh covered him with bruises.
40 Xeꞌnbꞌochiꞌj ri tijoxelabꞌ la kakesaj bꞌik ri itzel uxlabꞌal, man xekwin ta kꞌut.
I entreated your disciples to expel the spirit, but they could not."
41 Ri Jesús xubꞌij: Ri ix winaq sibꞌalaj man kixkojon taj, xuqujeꞌ man sukꞌ ta riꞌ bꞌe. ¿Jampaꞌ xaq in kꞌo iwukꞌ che ikochꞌik? Chakꞌama loq ri akꞌojol.
"O unbelieving and perverse generation!" replied Jesus; "how long shall I be with you and bear with you? Bring your son here to me."
42 Ri itzel uxlabꞌal xutzaq ri ala pa ri ulew are tajin kaqebꞌ loq. Ri Jesús kꞌut xresaj bꞌik ri itzel uxlabꞌal, xukunaj ri ala, kꞌa te riꞌ xutzalij bꞌik che ri utat.
Now while the youth was coming, the spirit dashed him to the ground and cruelly convulsed him. But Jesus rebuked the foul spirit, and cured the youth and gave him back to his father.
43 Konojel ri winaq xkimayijaj ri nimalaj uchuqꞌabꞌ ri Dios. Are tajin kemayijan ri winaq che ri xubꞌan ri Jesús, ri Jesús xubꞌij chike ri utijoxelabꞌ:
And all were awe-struck at the mighty power of God. And while every one was expressing wonder at all that He was doing, He said to his disciples,
44 Qas chikojo retal we kinbꞌij chiꞌwe, ri uKꞌojol ri Achi kajach na pa kiqꞌabꞌ ri achyabꞌ.
"As for you, store these my sayings in your memory; for, before long, the Son of Man will be betrayed into the hands of men."
45 Ri utijoxelabꞌ man xkichomaj taj jas ri xubꞌij chike. Jeriꞌ rumal cher tzꞌapital ri kibꞌoqꞌoch rech man kakichꞌobꞌ taj. Man kꞌo ta kꞌu jun karaj kuta che jas ri karaj kubꞌij.
But they did not understand His meaning: it was veiled from them that they might not perceive it, and they were afraid to ask Him about it.
46 Ri tijoxelabꞌ kꞌut xkichapleꞌj utzijoxik rij jachin ri qas nim uqꞌij chike.
Now there arose a dispute among them, which of them was to be the greatest.
47 Retaꞌm ri Jesús ri tajin kakichomaj rumal riꞌ xukꞌam apanoq jun laj nitzꞌ akꞌal, xuya chuxukut.
And Jesus, knowing the reasoning that was in their hearts, took a young child and made him stand by His side
48 Kꞌa te riꞌ xubꞌij: Ri kukꞌamawaꞌj we akꞌal riꞌ pa ri nubꞌiꞌ, in kinukꞌamawaꞌj, xuqujeꞌ ri kinukꞌamawaꞌj, kukꞌamawaꞌj ri xintaqow loq. Are sibꞌalaj nim uqꞌij ri man nim ta uqꞌij chi ixoꞌl ix.
and said to them, "Whoever for my sake receives this little child, receives me; and whoever receives me, receives Him who sent me. For the lowliest among you all--he is the greatest."
49 Ajtij, xcha ri Juan, xqil jun achi tajin keꞌresaj itzel taq uxlabꞌal pa ri bꞌiꞌ la, ri uj xqaqꞌil kanoq rumal cher man qachiꞌl taj.
"Rabbi," replied John, "we have seen a man making use of your name to expel demons; and we forbad him, because he does not come with us."
50 Ri Jesús xubꞌij che: Man kiꞌqꞌil taj. Ri man qakꞌulel taj, qachiꞌl riꞌ.
"Do not forbid him," said Jesus, "for he who is not against you is on your side."
51 Are xqeteqobꞌ loq ri qꞌij are katzalij ri Jesús pa ri kaj, xuchap ukꞌuꞌx keꞌ pa ri tinimit Jerusalén.
Now when the time drew near for Him to be received up again into Heaven, He proceeded with fixed purpose towards Jerusalem, and sent messengers before Him.
52 Xuꞌtaq bꞌik u taqoꞌn kenabꞌej apanoq keꞌkisukꞌumaj ri kꞌolibꞌal jawjeꞌ kawar wi pa ri tinimit ri kꞌo pa Samaria.
They went and entered a village of the Samaritans to make ready for Him.
53 Ri winaq aꞌj chilaꞌ man xkikꞌulaj ta ri Jesús, rumal cher xkilo chi pa Jerusalén bꞌenam wi rij.
But the people there would not receive Him, because He was evidently going to Jerusalem.
54 Are xkil ri tijoxelabꞌ Jacobo xuqujeꞌ ri Juan ri xkꞌulmatajik, xkita che ri Jesús: Ajawxel, ¿la kaj la kaqata chikajil qꞌaqꞌ pa kiwiꞌ we winaq riꞌ rech kejaꞌrik?
When the disciples James and John saw this, they said, "Master, do you wish us to order fire to come down from Heaven and consume them?"
55 Xtzalqꞌomij ri Jesús, xuꞌyajo.
But He turned and rebuked them.
56 Kꞌa te riꞌ xkitaqej. Xebꞌe pa jun leꞌaj chik.
And they went to another village.
57 Are e bꞌenaq pa ri bꞌe, jun achi xubꞌij che ri Jesús: Kinteriꞌ chij la xapawjeꞌ keꞌ wi la.
And, as they proceeded on their way, a man came to Him and said, "I will follow you wherever you go."
58 Xubꞌij ri Jesús che: Ri e par e kꞌo kijul, ri aꞌwaj kerapinik kꞌo kisok. Are kꞌu ri uKꞌojol ri Achi maj jawjeꞌ kuqꞌoyobꞌa wi ri ujolom.
"The foxes have holes," said Jesus, "and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head."
59 Xubꞌij ri Jesús che jun chik: Chatteren chwij. Ri achi xubꞌij: Ajawxel, ya la bꞌe chwe kinwil na kanoq kamuq ri nutat.
"Follow me," He said to another. "Master," the man replied, "allow me first to go and bury my father."
60 Ri Jesús xubꞌij che: Chaya bꞌe chike ri e kaminaqibꞌ keꞌkimuq ri e kech kaminaqibꞌ. Ri at kꞌut chatan loq, chatzijoj ri ajawarem rech ri Dios.
"Leave the dead," Jesus rejoined, "to bury their own dead; but you must go and announce far and wide the coming of the Kingdom of God."
61 Jun achi chik xubꞌij: Ajawxel, kinteriꞌ chij la, xwi ya na la bꞌe chwe kenchꞌabꞌej kan ri e kꞌo pa ri wachoch.
"Master," said yet another, "I will follow you; but allow me first to go and say good-bye to my friends at home."
62 Ri Jesús xubꞌij che: Man taqal ta che jun winaq kok pa ri ajawarem rech ri Dios we nabꞌe kuya ri uqꞌabꞌ puꞌwiꞌ ri arado kꞌa te riꞌ kakaꞌy kan chirij.
Jesus answered him, "No one who has put his hand to the plough, and then looks behind him, is fit for the Kingdom of God.
