Romanos 6
1 ¿Jas kꞌu kaqabꞌij? ¿La are kꞌu kaqilij ubꞌanik ri mak rech katixix ri toqꞌobꞌ kapetik?
What do we say, then? Shall we continue in sin, that favor may abound?
2 ¡Man je ta riꞌ! Ri uj, ri uj kaminaq chik chubꞌanik ri mak, ¿la kujkwin kꞌu ri xaq jeꞌ kujkꞌojiꞌk chupam?
By no means. How shall we, who have died to sin, continue to live in it?
3 ¿La man kꞌu iwetaꞌm chi qonojel ri xbꞌan qaqasanaꞌ rech kujkꞌojiꞌk rukꞌ ri Cristo Jesús, xbꞌan qaqasanaꞌ pa ri ukamikal?
Do you not know, that as many as have been immersed into Jesus Christ, have been immersed into his death?
4 Rumal ri qasanaꞌ xubꞌan chaqe chi xujmuqiꞌ rukꞌ ri Cristo pa ri ukamikal, rech jeriꞌ jetaq ri xubꞌan ri Cristo xkꞌastaj rukꞌ ri ukwinem ri Tataxel, xuqujeꞌ uj kaqataqej na jun kꞌakꞌ kꞌaslemal.
We have been buried, then, together with him, by the immersion into death: that like as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father; so we also shall walk in newness of life.
5 Qas tzij, we xa jun qabꞌanik rukꞌ ri Cristo are xujkamik, xa jun xuqujeꞌ riꞌ qabꞌanik rukꞌ are kakꞌastaj qawach.
For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death; we shall then, also, certainly be in the likeness of his resurrection.
6 Qetaꞌm chi ri ojer qakꞌaslemal xrip rukꞌ ri Cristo, rech jeriꞌ ri qatyoꞌjal rech mak xtukitajik, man uj patanil ta chi kꞌu rech ri mak.
Knowing this, that our old man has been crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that we should not any longer serve sin:
7 Rumal cher ri winaq ri kaminaq chik maj chi ukwinem ri mak puꞌwiꞌ.
for he that has died is released from sin.
8 We kꞌu kujkam rukꞌ ri Cristo, kaqakojo chi kujkꞌasiꞌk xuqujeꞌ na rukꞌ Areꞌ.
Moreover, if we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him.
9 Qetaꞌm chi ri Cristo xkꞌastaj chikixoꞌl ri kaminaqibꞌ, jeriꞌ man kakam ta chik junmul. Rumal cher ri kamikal maj chi ukwinem puꞌwiꞌ Areꞌ.
Knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, dies not again; death has no longer dominion over him:
10 Xa junmul, rukꞌ ri ukamikal xuchup ronojel ri mak, xuqujeꞌ xkꞌasiꞌk chibꞌe qꞌij saq rech kuya uqꞌij ri Dios.
for that he has died, he has died for sin once: but that he lives, he lives for God.
11 Ix xuqujeꞌ, chiwilaꞌ chi ix kaminaqibꞌ chik jeriꞌ man kuya ta chik kixmakunik, xane ix kꞌaslik rech kiya uqꞌij ri Dios pa Cristo Jesús.
So reckon yourselves also dead, indeed, to sin; but alive to God, by Jesus Christ.
12 Xaq jeriꞌ man kiya ta bꞌe che ri makaj kabꞌan rech puꞌwiꞌ ri ityoꞌjal rech man kinimaj ta chik ri itzel taq urayinik.
Let not sin, therefore, reign in your mortal body, by obeying it.
13 Man kitzuj ta ri ityoꞌjal che ri makaj rech kubꞌan ri man sukꞌ taj, xane chitzuju iwibꞌ che ri Dios, je ta ne ri kꞌa te xixel loq pa ri kamikal xixpe pa ri kꞌaslemal, chijacha ri ityoꞌjal rech kux rech sukꞌal.
Neither present your members as instruments of unrighteousness, to sin; but present yourselves to God, as alive from the dead; and your members as instruments of righteousness, to God.
14 Jeriꞌ, man kakwin taj ri makaj kubꞌan rech piꞌwiꞌ, rumal cher man ix kꞌo ta chik chuxeꞌ ri taqanik xane ix kꞌo chik pa ri toqꞌobꞌ.
Besides, sin shall not have dominion over you: for you are not under law, but under favor.
15 ¿Jas kꞌu kaqabꞌij? ¿La kujmakun kꞌut rumal ri man uj kꞌo ta chik chuxeꞌ ri taqanik, xane uj kꞌo chik pa ri toqꞌobꞌ? Man je ta riꞌ.
What then do we say? Shall we sin, because we are not under law, but under favor?
16 ¿La man iwetaꞌm chi we kijach iwibꞌ che jachinaq rech kinimaj, ix patanil rech ri winaq ri kinimaj, we kꞌu are ri makaj rech kamikal o are ne ri nimanik rech sukꞌal?
Do you not know, that to whom you present yourselves servants, by obedience; his servants you are whom you thus obey; whether of sin into death, or of obedience into righteousness?
17 Xa tyox che ri Dios rumal pune ojer ix patanil kan rech ri makaj, chanim inimam chik ri kꞌutuꞌn ri xyaꞌtaj chiꞌwe.
But, thanks to God, that though you were the servants of sin; yet you have heartily obeyed that model of doctrine to which you have been given up.
18 Xixesataj loq pa uqꞌabꞌ ri makaj, kamik ix patanil chi rech ri sukꞌal.
And being made free from sin, you have become the servants of righteousness.
19 In kintzijon iwukꞌ pa kitzij winaq rumal wetaꞌm chi xaq xwi waꞌ kixkwinik kichomaj. Nabꞌe kanoq kitzuj ri ityoꞌjal chupatanixik ri chꞌulujil, ri kixukꞌam bꞌik pa ri etzelal, kamik kꞌut chitzuju ri ityoꞌjal chupatanixik ri sukꞌal ri kakꞌaman bꞌik pa ri Tyoxalaj kꞌaslemal.
(I speak after the manner of men, because of the infirmity of your flesh.) Wherefore, as you have presented your members servants to uncleanness, and to iniquity, to work iniquity; so present now your members, servants to righteousness, to work holiness.
20 Ojer are ix patanil kan rech ri makaj, maj rech ri sukꞌal chiꞌwe.
For when you were servants of sin, you were free from righteousness.
21 ¿Jas kꞌu ri xikꞌamawaꞌj kan nabꞌe che ri xibꞌano? Are xikꞌamawaꞌj ri jastaq ri kixkꞌix chik che kamik, we jastaq riꞌ kakꞌaman bꞌik pa kamikal.
And what fruit had you, then, from these things of which you are now ashamed? for the reward of these things is death.
22 Kamik kꞌut man ix kꞌo ta chik pa uqꞌabꞌ ri makaj, ix patanil chi rech ri Dios, xuqujeꞌ kikꞌamawaꞌj iwe ri tyoxalaj kꞌaslemal ri kixukꞌam bꞌik pa jun alik kꞌaslemal. (aiōnios g166)
But now, being set free from sin, and having become servants of God, you have your fruit to holiness: and the end, everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
