eng: He was the burning and shining lamp, and you were willing to rejoice for a while in his light.

acr: Ma ri Juan e pachaꞌ juna akꞌ carepowic y cawon chi utz. Pero ralak xa jokꞌotaj xquiꞌcot alak che ri Kꞌijsak xutzijoj.


eng: You have sent to John, and he has testified to the truth.

acr: »Ralak xtak ne bi alak utzꞌonoxic che ri Juan panuwi riꞌin; y ri cꞌulubal uwach xuꞌan lo rire, lic katzij.


eng: It is another who testifies about me. I know that the testimony which he testifies about me is true.

acr: Cꞌo cꞌu Jun cakꞌalajisan nuwach, waꞌ e ri Nukaw, y wetaꞌam cꞌut ronoje ri cukꞌalajisaj Rire panuwi riꞌin, lic katzij.


eng: “If I testify about myself, my witness is not valid.

acr: We ta e laꞌ xa chiwibil wib riꞌin cankꞌalajisaj saꞌ ri nuwach, riꞌ na jinta uchac ri cambiꞌij.


eng: I can of myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and my judgment is righteous, because I don’t seek my own will, but the will of my Father who sent me.

acr: »Na jinta cꞌo canꞌan xa pa we riꞌin. Ri kꞌatbal tzij canꞌano e ri quinutak ri Nukaw che uꞌanic. Yey lic jusucꞌ ri kꞌatbal tzij canꞌano. Na e ta canꞌan riꞌ ri cuaj riꞌin; ma e canꞌan janipa ri caraj ri Nukaw, ri xtakaw lo we.


eng: and will come out; those who have done good, to the resurrection of life; and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of judgment.

acr: Janipa ri xkiꞌan ri utz, riꞌ keyaktaj lo che jun kꞌastajibꞌal re kꞌaslemal. Noꞌj janipa kꞌu ri xkiꞌan ri na utz taj, riꞌ keyaktaj lo che ri qꞌatbꞌal tzij kaꞌan pakiwiꞌ.


eng: Don’t marvel at this, for the hour comes in which all who are in the tombs will hear his voice

acr: »Macam animaꞌ alak che waꞌ, ma copon ri ora echiriꞌ conoje ri ecaminak caquita rukul Rire.


eng: He also gave him authority to execute judgment, because he is a son of man.

acr: Yey ri Dios uyaꞌom ne pukꞌab Rucꞌajol cukꞌat tzij paquiwi ri ticawex, ma Rucꞌajol e Alaxel Chiquixoꞌl Ticawex.


eng: “Most certainly I tell you, he who hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life, and doesn’t come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.

acr: »Pakatzij wi cambiꞌij che alak: China ri lic cuta chi utz ri cambiꞌij riꞌin y cacubiꞌ ucꞌuꞌx rucꞌ ri xtakaw lo we, riꞌ cꞌo ucꞌaslemal na jinta utakexic y na cucꞌul ta ri cꞌaxcꞌolil re ri kꞌatbal tzij. Jecꞌulaꞌ, na jinta chi pukꞌab ri camic, ma asu xkꞌax chupa ri cꞌaslemal.


eng: that all may honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. He who doesn’t honor the Son doesn’t honor the Father who sent him.

acr: chaꞌ jelaꞌ conoje ri ticawex caquiyac ukꞌij Rucꞌajol, jelaꞌ pachaꞌ caquiꞌan che uyaquic ukꞌij ri Dios. Yey china ri na cuyac ta ukꞌij Rucꞌajol ri Dios, na cuyac ta cꞌu ukꞌij riꞌ ri Jun xtakaw lo re, waꞌ e ri Dios.


eng: For the Father judges no one, but he has given all judgment to the Son,

acr: Yey ri Dios na cukꞌat tane tzij puwi junok, ma pukꞌab Rucꞌajol uyaꞌom wi cukꞌat tzij paquiwi ri ticawex,


eng: For as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even so the Son also gives life to whom he desires.

acr: Ma jelaꞌ pachaꞌ ri Dios kebꞌukꞌastajisaj ri ekaminaq y kuya kikꞌaslemal, jekꞌulaꞌ Rukꞌajol kuya kꞌaslemal china che ri karaj kuya wi.


eng: For the Father has affection for the Son, and shows him all things that he himself does. He will show him greater works than these, that you may marvel.

acr: »Ma ri Dios lic cꞌax cunaꞌ Rucꞌajol y cucꞌut cꞌu che ronoje ri cuꞌano. Yey cꞌo ne ri más nimak tak chac cucꞌut chwach. Y we xuꞌan cꞌu waꞌ, lic cacam ne animaꞌ ralak che.


eng: Jesus therefore answered them, “Most certainly, I tell you, the Son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father doing. For whatever things he does, these the Son also does likewise.

acr: Ecꞌu ri Jesús xubiꞌij chique: «Pakatzij wi cambiꞌij che alak: Rucꞌajol ri Dios na jinta cꞌo cuꞌan xa pa re Rire; ma xew cuꞌan pachaꞌ ri carilo cuꞌan Rukaw. Janipa tak ri cuꞌan Rukaw, jecꞌulaꞌ cuꞌan Rucꞌajol.


eng: For this cause therefore the Jews sought all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the Sabbath, but also called God his own Father, making himself equal with God.

acr: Ruma waꞌ raj judiꞌab más xquiya quib che ucamisaxic ri Jesús, ma e chiquiwach rique cupalajij ri takanic puwi ri kꞌij re uxlanibal. Y na xew ta waꞌ, ma cujunimaj ne rib rucꞌ ri Dios echiriꞌ cubiꞌij ri Dios e Ukaw.


eng: But Jesus answered them, “My Father is still working, so I am working, too.”

acr: Ecꞌu ri Jesús xubiꞌij chique: —Ri Nukaw na rokꞌotam taj cachacunic y jecꞌulaꞌ riꞌ canꞌan riꞌin —xchaꞌ.


eng: For this cause the Jews persecuted Jesus and sought to kill him, because he did these things on the Sabbath.

acr: Ruma waꞌ, raj judiꞌab xquijek uternabexic ri Jesús y caquitzucuj suꞌanic caquicamisaj, ma rire cuꞌan cunanic pa ri kꞌij re uxlanibal.


eng: The man went away, and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.

acr: Xeꞌec rachi y xuꞌtzijoj chique raj judiꞌab e ri Jesús xcunaw re.


eng: Afterward Jesus found him in the temple and said to him, “Behold, you are made well. Sin no more, so that nothing worse happens to you.”

acr: Tecꞌuchiriꞌ, ri Jesús xuꞌrika rachi pa ri Rocho Dios y xubiꞌij che: —Chawilapeꞌ: Woꞌora at cunutajinak chic; matmacun chi cꞌu riꞌ, ma cꞌaxtaj cape juna cꞌaxcꞌobic más nim pawiꞌ —xchaꞌ.


eng: But he who was healed didn’t know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, a crowd being in the place.

acr: Ecꞌu rachi na retaꞌam taj china ri xcunaw re, ma ri Jesús xel bi chiquixoꞌl ri ticawex e cꞌo chiriꞌ.


eng: Then they asked him, “Who is the man who said to you, ‘Take up your mat and walk’?”

acr: Xkitzꞌonoj kꞌu che: —¿China ri xbꞌiꞌn chawe: “Chakꞌama bꞌi rachꞌat y chatbꞌinoq”? —xechaꞌ.


eng: He answered them, “He who made me well said to me, ‘Take up your mat and walk.’”

acr: Rachi xucꞌul cꞌu uwach chique: —Ri jun xinucunaj e xbiꞌn re chwe: “Chacꞌama bi rachꞌat y chatbinok” —xchaꞌ.


eng: So the Jews said to him who was cured, “It is the Sabbath. It is not lawful for you to carry the mat.”

acr: Ruma cꞌu riꞌ, ri e aj judiꞌab xquibiꞌij che rachi xcunutajic: —Wakꞌij e kꞌij re uxlanibal, y na ube ta chawe cawucꞌaꞌaj rachꞌat —xechaꞌ.


eng: Immediately, the man was made well, and took up his mat and walked. Now that day was a Sabbath.

acr: Chupa cꞌu laꞌ la jokꞌotaj rachi xcunutajic, xucꞌam bi ruchꞌat y xujeko cabinic. Yey waꞌ xuꞌan pa jun kꞌij re uxlanibal.


eng: Jesus said to him, “Arise, take up your mat, and walk.”

acr: Ri Jesús xubiꞌij che: —Chatyactajok, chacꞌama bi rachꞌat y chatbinok —xchaꞌ.


eng: The sick man answered him, “Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up, but while I’m coming, another steps down before me.”

acr: Rachi jewaꞌ xucꞌul uwach: —Wajawal, na jinta junok cacꞌamaw bi we chupa ri atinibal echiriꞌ carujurut upa ri yaꞌ. Lic nutijom chi nukꞌij che cancꞌak bi wib chupa; pero echiriꞌ cuaj canꞌano, cꞌate canwilo jun chic canabej chinuwach —xchaꞌ.


eng: A certain man was there who had been sick for thirty-eight years.

acr: Cꞌo cꞌu jun achi e treinta y ocho junab riꞌ yewaꞌ.


eng: Now in Jerusalem by the sheep gate, there is a pool, which is called in Hebrew, “Bethesda”, having five porches.

acr: Chupa cꞌu laꞌ la tinamit, chunakaj ri Oquibal que Bexex, cꞌo jun nimalaj atinibal, “Betesda” rubiꞌ pa ri chꞌaꞌtem hebreo. Waꞌ woꞌob uchiꞌ ja cꞌo che.


eng: After these things, there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

acr: Cꞌate tanchi cꞌu riꞌ, ri Jesús xtzelej Jerusalem echiriꞌ raj judiꞌab cꞌo jun quinimakꞌij.


eng: This is again the second sign that Jesus did, having come out of Judea into Galilee.

acr: Wa jun cunanic e ucaꞌm cꞌutubal re ruchukꞌab ri Dios xuꞌan ri Jesús chilaꞌ Galilea echiriꞌ tzelejinak lo Judea.


eng: So the father knew that it was at that hour in which Jesus said to him, “Your son lives.” He believed, as did his whole house.

acr: Jecꞌulaꞌ rukaw rala xretaꞌmaj e ora riꞌ xubiꞌij ri Jesús che: «Ri cꞌajol la na cacam taj.» Ruma cꞌu riꞌ laꞌ, rire cucꞌ conoje ri e cꞌo pa rocho xcubiꞌ quicꞌuꞌx rucꞌ ri Jesús.


eng: As he was going down, his servants met him and reported, saying “Your child lives!”

acr: Echiriꞌ catajin roponic chirocho, ri raj chaquib xebel lo che ucꞌulic y xquibiꞌij che: —¡Ri cꞌajol la na xcam taj ma xcunutajic! —xechaꞌ.


eng: Jesus said to him, “Go your way. Your son lives.” The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way.

acr: Xubiꞌij cꞌu ri Jesús che: —Oj la chi ocho la, ma ri cꞌajol la na cacam taj —xchaꞌ. Rachi xucoj ri xbiꞌx che ruma ri Jesús y xeꞌec.


eng: The nobleman said to him, “Sir, come down before my child dies.”

acr: Ri raj chac ri rey xubiꞌij tanchi che ri Jesús: —Wajawal, peta co la wucꞌ chiwocho, ma ri nucꞌajol cajecꞌowic —xchaꞌ.


eng: Jesus therefore said to him, “Unless you see signs and wonders, you will in no way believe.”

acr: Xubiꞌij cꞌu ri Jesús che: —Ralak na cacubiꞌ ta cꞌuꞌx alak wucꞌ we na quil ta tak cꞌutubal re ri nuchukꞌab o tak milagros canꞌano —xchaꞌ.


eng: When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to him and begged him that he would come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death.

acr: Wa waꞌchi echiriꞌ xuto ri Jesús petinak Judea y cꞌo chi chiriꞌ Galilea, xeꞌec cꞌu che rilic y lic xeꞌelaj che chaꞌ queꞌec chirocho re cuꞌcunaj rucꞌajol cajecꞌowic.


eng: Jesus came therefore again to Cana of Galilee, where he made the water into wine. There was a certain nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum.

acr: Ecꞌuchiriꞌ, ri Jesús xtzelej pa ri tinamit Caná re Galilea pa xuꞌan wi vino che ri yaꞌ. Cꞌo cꞌu jun aj wach raj chac ri rey chilaꞌ Capernaúm, y rire cꞌo jun ucꞌajol lic yewaꞌ.


eng: After the two days he went out from there and went into Galilee.

acr: Churox ʼij xel i Jesus pa Samária; xu maj chubi u be, xa ʼe pa jyub Galiléa.


eng: For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country.

acr: Man ire mísmo u bim chi jun ajbil u tzij i Dios, n-cocsax tu ʼij pa tinimit pa xqʼuiy wi.


eng: So when he came into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the things that he did in Jerusalem at the feast, for they also went to the feast.

acr: Na rucꞌ ta cꞌu riꞌ, echiriꞌ xopon chilaꞌ Galilea, ri aj chiriꞌ lic xquicꞌul chi utz, ma rique xebopon pa ri nimakꞌij Pascua chilaꞌ Jerusalem y xquilo janipa tak ri xuꞌan ri Jesús pa ri nimakꞌij.

eng: They said to the woman, “Now we believe, not because of your speaking; for we have heard for ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world.”

acr: Xkibꞌiꞌij kꞌu che rixoq: —Woꞌora lik kubꞌul qakꞌuꞌx rukꞌ rire na xew ta ruma ri xatzijoj riꞌat chiqe, ma e ruma ri xqata ruchꞌaꞌtem rire. Qetaꞌam kꞌu riꞌ rire paqatzij wi e ri Cristo, ri Kolobꞌenel re ruwachulew —xechaꞌ.


eng: Many more believed because of his word.

acr: Yey más e kꞌi ri xkubꞌiꞌ kikꞌuꞌx rukꞌ ruma ri xutzijoj Rire chikiwach.


eng: So when the Samaritans came to him, they begged him to stay with them. He stayed there two days.

acr: Ruma cꞌu laꞌ, rique xecꞌun rucꞌ ri Jesús y lic xebelaj che chaꞌ cacanaj cucꞌ. Ewi Rire queb kꞌij xcanaj can cucꞌ.


eng: From that city many of the Samaritans believed in him because of the word of the woman, who testified, “He told me everything that I have done.”

acr: E kꞌi chike ri e aj Samaria xkubꞌiꞌ kikꞌuꞌx rukꞌ ri Jesús ruma ri xutzijoj rixoq echiriꞌ xubꞌiꞌij chike: «Rire xubꞌiꞌij chwe janipa ri nuꞌanom.»


eng: I sent you to reap that for which you haven’t labored. Others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.”

acr: Riꞌin xixintak bi re quimol ri na xitic ta riꞌix; ma e jujun chic ri xeticow re. Ecꞌu woꞌora cꞌo quicꞌul riꞌix che ri chac que rique» xchaꞌ.


eng: For in this the saying is true, ‘One sows, and another reaps.’

acr: Ma e cuꞌana pachaꞌ ri cabiꞌxic: “Jun ri caticow re yey jun chic ri caꞌanaw re ri molonic.”


eng: He who reaps receives wages and gathers fruit to eternal life, that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together.

eng: Don’t you say, ‘There are yet four months until the harvest?’ Behold, I tell you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, that they are white for harvest already.

acr: Riꞌix kibꞌiꞌij: “Kajibꞌ ikꞌ chik kopon wi chaꞌ kaꞌan ri molonik.” Noꞌj riꞌin kambꞌiꞌij chiwe: Chixtzuꞌn apanoq y chiwila chi utz ri tikoꞌn, ma ya riꞌj chik, utz chik kamolik.


eng: Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to accomplish his work.

acr: Ecꞌu ri Jesús xubiꞌij chique: «Ri nuwa riꞌin e ri canꞌan ri rajawal ucꞌuꞌx ri takayom lo weꞌin y canqꞌuis na cꞌu ruchac.


eng: But he said to them, “I have food to eat that you don’t know about.”

acr: Ri Jesús xubiꞌij chique: —Riꞌin cꞌo ri nuwa cantijo, tob riꞌix na iwetaꞌam taj saꞌ waꞌ —xchaꞌ.


eng: In the meanwhile, the disciples urged him, saying, “Rabbi, eat.”

acr: Echiriꞌ cꞌamajaꞌ quebopon ri winak, rutijoꞌn xquitij riꞌ che, jewaꞌ xquibiꞌij: —Lal tijonel, tija wa la —xecha che.


eng: They went out of the city, and were coming to him.

acr: Ecꞌuchiriꞌ, xebel bi ri winak pa ri tinamit y xebec chilaꞌ pa cꞌo wi ri Jesús.


eng: “Come, see a man who told me everything that I have done. Can this be the Christ?”

acr: —Peta alak, jeꞌilaꞌ alak jun achi ubiꞌim chwe janipa ri nuꞌanom. ¿Na e ta nawi rire ri Cristo? —cachaꞌ.


eng: So the woman left her water pot, went away into the city, and said to the people,

acr: Ecꞌuchiriꞌ, rixok xuya can rucꞌambaꞌ, xeꞌec pa ri tinamit y jewaꞌ cubiꞌij chique ri winak:


eng: Jesus said to her, “I am he, the one who speaks to you.”

acr: Ri Jesús xubiꞌij che: —Waꞌ wa cabiꞌij la e riꞌin, ri quinchꞌaꞌt ucꞌ la —xchaꞌ.


eng: The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah is coming, he who is called Christ. When he has come, he will declare to us all things.”

acr: Xubiꞌij cꞌu rixok che ri Jesús: —Riꞌin wetaꞌam cacꞌun Ruchaꞌoꞌn lo ri Dios, ri cabiꞌx “Cristo” che; y echiriꞌ cacꞌun Rire, cukꞌalajisaj ronoje chike —xchaꞌ.


eng: God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”

eng: But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to be his worshipers.

acr: Noꞌj copon na cꞌu ri kꞌij yey ecꞌu ukꞌijol waꞌ xoponic echiriꞌ e janipa ri caquilokꞌnimaj ukꞌij ri Kakaw Dios pa sakil wi, caquiꞌano ruma ri Ruxlabixel cꞌo pa canimaꞌ. Ma e caraj waꞌ ri Kakaw Dios chique conoje ri quelokꞌniman re.


eng: You worship that which you don’t know. We worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.

acr: Ewi rixok xubiꞌij: —Riꞌin na jinta wachijil —xchaꞌ. Xubiꞌij cꞌu ri Jesús che: —Katzij ri xbiꞌij la, na jinta achijil la.

acr: Pero ri Jesús xubiꞌij che: —Oj la, jeꞌsiqꞌuij la ri achijil la y cꞌamaꞌ cꞌu lo la wara —xchaꞌ.


eng: The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water, so that I don’t get thirsty, neither come all the way here to draw.”

eng: but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never thirst again; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life.”

eng: Jesus answered her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again,

acr: Ri Jesús xucꞌul uwach: —Conoje ri quetijow re waꞌ wa yaꞌ, catzajin tanchi quichiꞌ.


eng: Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did his children and his livestock?”

eng: Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.”

acr: Ewi ri Jesús xucꞌul uwach: —We ta cꞌu quetaꞌmaj la saꞌ ri cusipaj ri Dios cheꞌla yey we ta quetaꞌmaj la in china riꞌin, ri cantzꞌonoj nuyaꞌ cheꞌla, riꞌ e ne rilal catzꞌonoj la yaꞌ chwe yey riꞌin canya cꞌu cheꞌla ri yaꞌ cuya cꞌaslemal —xchaꞌ.


eng: The Samaritan woman therefore said to him, “How is it that you, being a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)

acr: Rixok aj Samaria xubiꞌij cꞌu che: —¿Saꞌ riꞌ laꞌ catzꞌonoj yaꞌ la chwe? Ma rilal lal cuqꞌuil raj judiꞌab yey riꞌin in aj Samaria —xchaꞌ. Xubiꞌij waꞌ ma raj judiꞌab na quechꞌaw ta chiquiwach cucꞌ raj Samaria.


eng: So he came to a city of Samaria called Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

acr: Chila pa Samária, xupon che jun tinimit, Sicar u bi. I tinimit-le, ʼo chu nakaj i rulew i mam Jacob ujer; i ulew-le xu ya can che i u cʼojol, chi ma Jose.


eng: Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being tired from his journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour.

eng: A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give me a drink.”

acr: Cul i Jesus chila, xupon jun ixok aj Samária chu cʼamic u yaʼ pa cʼotom. I Jesus xu bij che: —Cha ya jubiʼ in yaʼ —coʼon che.

eng: He needed to pass through Samaria.

eng: Therefore when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John

acr: Ri Jesús xretaꞌmaj, ri fariseos xkito más e kꞌi rutijoꞌn Rire chikiwa rutijoꞌn ri Juan, yey más e kꞌi ri kakikꞌul ri bautismo ruma Rire chikiwa ri kakikꞌul ri bautismo ruma ri Juan.


eng: (although Jesus himself didn’t baptize, but his disciples),

acr: (Tob na e ta cꞌu ri Jesús ri cuya ri bautismo, ma e tak rutijoꞌn ri queyaꞌw re.)


eng: he left Judea and departed into Galilee.

acr: Ruma cꞌu ri Jesús retaꞌam ri xquita rique, xel bi pa ri luwar re Judea y xtzelej tanchi pa ri luwar re Galilea.

eng: The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into his hand.

acr: Ri Dios lic cꞌax cunaꞌ Rucꞌajol yey uyaꞌom pukꞌab rire ronoje ri cꞌolic.


eng: For he whom God has sent speaks the words of God; for God gives the Spirit without measure.

acr: Yey we cꞌo junok cacojow ri cukꞌalajisaj rire, riꞌ cujiquibaꞌ uwach lic katzij ri cubiꞌij ri Dios.

eng: He must increase, but I must decrease.

acr: Lic cꞌu chirajawaxic más canimarisax ukꞌij rire, chwa ri canimarisax nukꞌij riꞌin.


eng: He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice. Therefore my joy is made full.

acr: »E pachaꞌ pa juna cꞌulaniquil. Ri lic cꞌo uwach na e ta ri ramigo rala, e rala cacꞌuliꞌic ma e ucꞌaꞌyom re rali. Yey ri ramigo cꞌo putzal rala, e lic caquiꞌcot che utayic ri cubiꞌij rala. Jecꞌulaꞌ riꞌin woꞌora lic quinquiꞌcotic ma ya xcꞌun ri Cristo.

acr: Ecꞌu ri Juan xubiꞌij chique: «Na jinta cꞌo cucꞌul junok we na e ta ri Dios chilaꞌ chicaj cayaꞌw re che.


eng: Therefore a dispute arose on the part of John’s disciples with some Jews about purification.

eng: for John was not yet thrown into prison.

eng: John also was baptizing in Enon near Salim, because there was much water there. They came and were baptized;

acr: Ecꞌu ri Juan catajin che uyaꞌic ri bautismo pa ri tinamit Enón chunakaj Salim, ma chilaꞌ lic cꞌo yaꞌ. Quebopon cꞌu ri ticawex rucꞌ chaꞌ caquicꞌul ri bautismo.


eng: After these things, Jesus came with his disciples into the land of Judea. He stayed there with them and baptized.

acr: Tecꞌuchiriꞌ, ri Jesús junam cucꞌ rutijoꞌn xebec Judea; uqꞌuiyal kꞌij xcꞌojiꞌ chiriꞌ cucꞌ y cuya ri bautismo chique ri ticawex.


eng: But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his works may be revealed, that they have been done in God.”

acr: Noꞌj conoje ri caquitijoj quib che jun sakil binic silabic, riꞌ quekib chwach ri Kꞌijsak chaꞌ cakꞌalajinic, ri quetajin che uꞌanic e ri caraj ri Dios chique —xchaꞌ.


eng: For everyone who does evil hates the light and doesn’t come to the light, lest his works would be exposed.

acr: Conoje ri caquiꞌan ri na utz taj, tzel caquil ri Kꞌijsak y na quekib ta rucꞌ chaꞌ na cakꞌalajin ta ri na utz taj quetajin che uꞌanic.


eng: This is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light, for their works were evil.

acr: Yey ri kꞌatbal tzij cuꞌan ri Dios e ruma waꞌ: Ri Kꞌijsak re ri Dios xcꞌun che ruwachulew, pero tak ri ticawex e más xucꞌul quicꞌuꞌx ri kꞌekuꞌmalil re ri mac chwa ri Kꞌijsak; ma ri quetajin che uꞌanic, lic na chom taj.


eng: He who believes in him is not judged. He who doesn’t believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only born Son of God.

acr: China cꞌu ri cacubiꞌ ucꞌuꞌx rucꞌ Rucꞌajol ri Dios, riꞌ na jinta ri kꞌatbal tzij re ri Dios puwiꞌ; noꞌj china ri na cacubiꞌ ta ucꞌuꞌx rucꞌ, riꞌ cꞌo chi ri kꞌatbal tzij re ri Dios puwiꞌ ruma na xucoj ta rubiꞌ Rucꞌajol ri Dios, ri lic xew Ucꞌajol riꞌ.


eng: For God didn’t send his Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through him.

acr: Ma ri Dios na xutak ta lo Rucꞌajol che ruwachulew re coluꞌkꞌata tzij paquiwi ri ticawex; ri xutak wulok e chaꞌ queboluꞌcolobej.


eng: For God so loved the world, that he gave his only born Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

acr: »Ri Dios lic cꞌax xebunaꞌ ri e cꞌo che ruwachulew; y ruma cꞌu waꞌ, xutak lo Rucꞌajol, ri lic xew Ucꞌajol riꞌ, chaꞌ china ri cacubiꞌ ucꞌuꞌx rucꞌ Rire na casach ta uwach, ma cꞌo ucꞌaslemal na jinta utakexic.

eng: As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up,

eng: Jesus answered him, “Are you the teacher of Israel, and don’t understand these things?

acr: Ri Jesús xucꞌul uwach: —Lal tijonel chiquiwach raj Israel, ¿yey na etaꞌam tane la waꞌ?


eng: Nicodemus answered him, “How can these things be?”

acr: Ecꞌu ri Nicodemo xutzꞌonoj tanchic: —¿Suꞌanic cuꞌana waꞌ? —xchaꞌ.


eng: The wind blows where it wants to, and you hear its sound, but don’t know where it comes from and where it is going. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”

acr: E pachaꞌ ri tew xa tob pa cawelel wi, xew cata la cajuxuxic, pero na etaꞌam ta la pa cape wi y pa cumaj wubi. Jecꞌulaꞌ ri quebalax ruma ri Ruxlabixel ri Dios na quilitaj taj suꞌanic ri Dios cuya ri cꞌacꞌ quicꞌaslemal —xchaꞌ.

acr: Macam cꞌu animaꞌ la che wa ximbiꞌij cheꞌla: “Lic chirajawaxic chique conoje ri ticawex quebalax na tanchic.”


eng: That which is born of the flesh is flesh. That which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

acr: E junok calax cuma ruchu-ukaw, riꞌ lic rewi e jun ticawex; noꞌj ri calax ruma ri Ruxlabixel ri Dios, riꞌ cꞌo ucꞌaslemal chwach ri Dios.


eng: Jesus answered, “Most certainly I tell you, unless one is born of water and Spirit, he can’t enter into God’s Kingdom.

acr: Ri Jesús xucꞌul uwach: —Pakatzij wi cambiꞌij cheꞌla: China ri na calax ta rucꞌ yaꞌ y rucꞌ ri Ruxlabixel ri Dios, riꞌ na takal ta che coc chupa rutakanic ri Dios.


eng: Nicodemus said to him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?”

acr: Ri Nicodemo xutzꞌonoj che: —¿Suꞌanic cꞌu riꞌ calax junok e laꞌ nim chic? ¿Utz neba laꞌ camatzex tanchi ruma ruchu chaꞌ calax tanchic? —xchaꞌ.


eng: Jesus answered him, “Most certainly I tell you, unless one is born anew, he can’t see God’s Kingdom.”

acr: Ecꞌu ri Jesús xubiꞌij che: —Pakatzij wi cambiꞌij cheꞌla: E junok we na calax ta tanchic, riꞌ na cayaꞌtaj ta che coc chupa rutakanic ri Dios —xchaꞌ.


eng: Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.

acr: Cꞌo jun achi Nicodemo rubiꞌ; rire e cuqꞌuil ri fariseos yey e jun aj wach que raj judiꞌab.


eng: He came to Jesus by night and said to him, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God, for no one can do these signs that you do, unless God is with him.”

acr: Rire xeꞌbina rucꞌ ri Jesús chakꞌab y xubiꞌij che: —Lal tijonel, lic kꞌalaj lal takom lo la ruma ri Dios re coꞌlcꞌutun la chikawach, ma na jinta junok caꞌanaw janipa wa cꞌutubal caꞌan la, we na jinta ri Dios rucꞌ —xchaꞌ.

eng: But Jesus didn’t entrust himself to them, because he knew everyone,

acr: Noꞌj ri Jesús na xcubiꞌ ta ucꞌuꞌx cucꞌ ma lic retaꞌam quiwach conoje.


eng: and because he didn’t need for anyone to testify concerning man; for he himself knew what was in man.

acr: Na xajawax tane cabiꞌx che saꞌ ri caquichꞌob rakan ri winak, ma Rire retaꞌam saꞌ ri cꞌo chupa ri canimaꞌ.

eng: Now when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in his name, observing his signs which he did.

acr: Echiriꞌ cꞌo ri Jesús Jerusalem pa ri nimakꞌij Pascua, lic e qꞌui ri ticawex xquicoj rubiꞌ Rire ruma xquil tak ri cꞌutubal re ruchukꞌab ri Dios xuꞌano.


eng: When therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he said this, and they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had said.

eng: But he spoke of the temple of his body.

eng: The Jews therefore said, “It took forty-six years to build this temple! Will you raise it up in three days?”

acr: Xkibꞌiꞌij kꞌu raj judiꞌabꞌ che: —Waꞌ wa Rocho Dios pa cuarenta y seis junabꞌ xutzin wi. ¿Kayak kami la riꞌ rilal pa oxibꞌ qꞌij? —xechaꞌ.

eng: This beginning of his signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him.

eng: But as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become God’s children, to those who believe in his name:

acr: Conoje cꞌu riꞌ ri xquicꞌulu y xquicoj rubiꞌ, xyaꞌtaj chique quebuꞌan e ralcꞌoꞌal ri Dios.


eng: He came to his own, and those who were his own didn’t receive him.

acr: Rire xcꞌun cucꞌ rutinamit, pero rutinamit na xquicꞌul taj.


eng: He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world didn’t recognize him.

acr: Tob Rire e ꞌanayom re ronoje ri cꞌo che ruwachulew; echiriꞌ xcꞌun che ruwachulew, tak ri winak na xquetaꞌmaj ta uwach.


eng: He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.

acr: N-are ti ma Wan ca yaw i sak-le, ire xa col u lapa i Jun chi ca yaw i sak-le.


eng: The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.

acr: Ri Juan xcꞌunic chaꞌ cukꞌalajisaj ri Kꞌijsak. Xoluꞌtzijoj cꞌu ri Kꞌijsak chaꞌ jelaꞌ ri ticawex caquicoj ri Kꞌijsak.


eng: The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn’t overcome it.

acr: Ri Kꞌijsak cawon chupa ri kꞌekuꞌm, y ri kꞌekuꞌm na cuchꞌij ta cꞌana uchupic.


eng: In him was life, and the life was the light of men.

acr: Rucꞌ cꞌu Rire cꞌo wi ri cꞌaslemal, yey wa cꞌaslemal e Kꞌijsak chique ri ticawex.


eng: All things were made through him. Without him, nothing was made that has been made.

acr: Ruma ne Rire, ri Dios xuꞌan ronoje ri cꞌo che ruwachulew. We tamaji Rire, na cuꞌan ta riꞌ ri Dios janipa ri cꞌolic.

eng: and were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.

acr: Y xaki e cꞌo chupa ri Rocho Dios, quebixonic y caquiyac ukꞌij ri Dios. Amén.


eng: While he blessed them, he withdrew from them and was carried up into heaven.

acr: Echiriꞌ catajin che uꞌanic waꞌ, xujeko xel bi chiquixoꞌl y xcꞌam cꞌu bi chilaꞌ chicaj.


eng: He led them out as far as Bethany, and he lifted up his hands and blessed them.

eng: Behold, I send out the promise of my Father on you. But wait in the city of Jerusalem until you are clothed with power from on high.”

eng: Then he opened their minds, that they might understand the Scriptures.

acr: Cꞌa tecꞌuchiriꞌ xujak ri quinaꞌoj chaꞌ caquimaj usucꞌ chi utz Rutzij Upixab ri Dios.


eng: He said to them, “This is what I told you while I was still with you, that all things which are written in the law of Moses, the prophets, and the psalms concerning me must be fulfilled.”

acr: Ecꞌuchiriꞌ, xubiꞌij chique: —E nubiꞌim lo waꞌ chiwe echiriꞌ cꞌa in cꞌo iwucꞌ: Lic chirajawaxic wi cuꞌana na janipa ri tzꞌibital can panuwi riꞌin chupa ri Tzij Pixab re ri Moisés, chupa ri quitzꞌibam can ri kꞌalajisanelab y chupa tak ri Salmos —xchaꞌ.


eng: He took them, and ate in front of them.

acr: Ewi Rire xucꞌamo y xutij chiquiwach.


eng: While they still didn’t believe for joy, and wondered, he said to them, “Do you have anything here to eat?”

acr: Ecꞌu rique lic quequiꞌcotic y caminak canimaꞌ che yey na caquirik taj suꞌanic caquicoj ri caquilo. Ecꞌuchiriꞌ, ri Jesús xubiꞌij chique: —¿Saꞌ ri cꞌo iwucꞌ re catijic? —xchaꞌ.


eng: When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet.

acr: Y ecꞌuchiriꞌ cubiꞌij waꞌ, xucꞌut rukꞌab y ri rakan chiquiwach.


eng: See my hands and my feet, that it is truly me. Touch me and see, for a spirit doesn’t have flesh and bones, as you see that I have.”

eng: He said to them, “Why are you troubled? Why do doubts arise in your hearts?

acr: Noꞌj ri Jesús xubiꞌij chique: —¿Suꞌchac cuxiꞌij rib icꞌuꞌx y na quicoj taj we in cꞌaslic?


eng: But they were terrified and filled with fear, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.

acr: Yey rike lik xkixiꞌij kibꞌ che, ma e chikiwach rike laj juna espíritu ri kakitzutzaꞌ uwach.


eng: As they said these things, Jesus himself stood among them, and said to them, “Peace be to you.”

acr: Y rike xkibꞌiꞌij chike wa kaꞌibꞌ: «¡Paqatzij wi kꞌastajinaq lo ri Qanimajawal Jesucristo ma xilitaj uwach ruma ri Simón!» kechaꞌ.


eng: They rose up that very hour, returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and those who were with them,

acr: Na jampatana xeyactajic y xetzelej Jerusalem. Chiriꞌ xeboꞌlquirika ri junlajuj takoꞌn quimolom quib cucꞌ ri cachbiꞌil.


eng: They said to one another, “Weren’t our hearts burning within us while he spoke to us along the way, and while he opened the Scriptures to us?”

acr: Xkibꞌiꞌij kꞌu riꞌ chikiwach: —¿Na kamiqꞌmot ta nebꞌa qakꞌuꞌx che kiꞌkotemal echiriꞌ rire kachꞌaꞌt qukꞌ pa ri bꞌe y kuqꞌalajisaj chiqe Rutzij Upixabꞌ ri Dios? —xechaꞌ.


eng: Their eyes were opened and they recognized him; then he vanished out of their sight.

acr: Cꞌa ecꞌuchiriꞌ xjakataj ri quiwach y xquetaꞌmaj uwach. Pero ri Jesús e laꞌ chiquiwach xmalcaꞌnic.


eng: When he had sat down at the table with them, he took the bread and gave thanks. Breaking it, he gave it to them.

acr: Echiriꞌ e cꞌo chi chwa ri mexa, xucꞌam ri pam y xtioxin chwach ri Dios, xuwechꞌ cꞌu upa y xuya chique.


eng: They urged him, saying, “Stay with us, for it is almost evening, and the day is almost over.” He went in to stay with them.

acr: Pero rike lik xebꞌelaj che kakanaj kan kukꞌ, jewaꞌ xkibꞌiꞌij che: —Kanaj kan la qukꞌ, ma bꞌenaq chi ri qꞌij yey ya kok raqꞌabꞌ —xechaꞌ. Ri Jesús xok kꞌu bꞌi y xkanaj kan chiriꞌ kukꞌ.


eng: They came near to the village where they were going, and he acted like he would go further.

acr: Ecꞌuchiriꞌ xebopon chupa raldea pa quebec wi ri queb achijab, ri Jesús xuꞌan pachaꞌ e riꞌ xumaj chubi rube.


eng: Beginning from Moses and from all the prophets, he explained to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.

eng: He said to them, “Foolish people, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!

acr: Ecꞌu ri Jesús xubiꞌij chique: —¡Tokꞌoꞌ wach alak ma lic na camaj ta alak usucꞌ y camayin alak che ucojic janipa ri quibiꞌim can ri kꞌalajisanelab!


eng: Also, certain women of our company amazed us, having arrived early at the tomb;

acr: »Yey kisachisam ne qanaꞌoj jujun ixoqibꞌ ebꞌare jun chiqaxoꞌl riꞌoj oj utijoꞌn kan ri Jesús. Ma rike lik anim tan xebꞌopon chupa rumuqubꞌal,


eng: and when they didn’t find his body, they came saying that they had also seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive.

acr: pero na xkiriq ta chi rucuerpo ri Jesús. Xetzelej kꞌu lo qukꞌ, kakitzijoj chiqe xewinaqir jujun ángeles chikiwach, yey waꞌ xkibꞌiꞌij chike: “Rire kꞌastajinaq chi lo chikixoꞌl ri ekaminaq.”


eng: But we were hoping that it was he who would redeem Israel. Yes, and besides all this, it is now the third day since these things happened.

acr: Chwi cꞌu rucamic e urox kꞌij waꞌ. Yey riꞌoj xcubiꞌ kacꞌuꞌx e rire ri cucolobej ri katinamit Israel.

eng: One of them, named Cleopas, answered him, “Are you the only stranger in Jerusalem who doesn’t know the things which have happened there in these days?”

acr: Jun cꞌu chique, Cleofas rubiꞌ, xucꞌul uwach, jewaꞌ xubiꞌij: —Laj xew rilal chique conoje ri ebinel e cꞌo Jerusalem na etaꞌam ta la saꞌ ri cꞌacꞌ icꞌowinak chupa tak waꞌ wa kꞌij —xchaꞌ.


eng: He said to them, “What are you talking about as you walk, and are sad?”

acr: Ecꞌu ri Jesús xubiꞌij chique: —¿Saꞌ puwiꞌ cachꞌaꞌt wi alak chupa wa be? ¿Y suꞌchac cabison alak? —xchaꞌ.


eng: While they talked and questioned together, Jesus himself came near, and went with them.

acr: Are quiqui lap ile, cʼa que tijin chi tzij, are ʼuri i Jesus mísmo xtejeb cuʼ, y xe ʼe junam.


eng: But their eyes were kept from recognizing him.

acr: Pero rike pachaꞌ chꞌuqutal ri kiwach, ma tobꞌ xkilo na xketaꞌmaj ta uwach.


eng: They talked with each other about all of these things which had happened.

acr: Xalokꞌ cꞌu quebin chupa ri be, rique quechꞌaꞌt chiquiwach puwi ri cꞌacꞌ icꞌowinak.


eng: Behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was sixty stadia from Jerusalem.

acr: Chupa laꞌ laꞌ kꞌij, caꞌib chique rutijoꞌn quebin chupa ri be re queꞌec pa raldea Emaús, waꞌ cꞌo lo pa once kilómetro che ri tinamit Jerusalem.


eng: But Peter got up and ran to the tomb. Stooping and looking in, he saw the strips of linen lying by themselves, and he departed to his home, wondering what had happened.

acr: Ecꞌu ri Pedro xyactaj bi y lic canic xeꞌec pa cꞌo wi ri mukubal re ri Jesús. Y echiriꞌ xochꞌin pan chupa, xrilo xew chi cꞌo can ri jutak rabaꞌj cꞌul pa xbolkꞌotix wi ri Jesús. Xeꞌec cꞌut lic caminak ranimaꞌ che ri xrilo y cutzꞌonoj chiribil rib saꞌ nawi waꞌ.

acr: Yey ri takoꞌn na xquicoj ta ri xquitzijoj rixokib, ma e chiquiwach rique, wa ixokib echꞌuꞌjerinak.


eng: returned from the tomb, and told all these things to the eleven and to all the rest.

acr: Echiriꞌ xetzelej lo chilaꞌ pa ri mukubal, xquitzijoj ronoje waꞌ chique ri junlajuj takoꞌn y chique conoje ri e cꞌo cucꞌ.


eng: Now they were Mary Magdalene, Joanna, and Mary the mother of James. The other women with them told these things to the apostles.

eng: They remembered his words,

acr: Cꞌa ecꞌuchiriꞌ xcꞌun chiquicꞌuꞌx rixokib ruchꞌaꞌtem ri Jesús.


eng: saying that the Son of Man must be delivered up into the hands of sinful men and be crucified, and the third day rise again?”

eng: He isn’t here, but is risen. Remember what he told you when he was still in Galilee,

acr: Rire na jinta chi wara, ma cꞌastajinak chi lo chiquixoꞌl ri ecaminak. Cꞌuna chicꞌuꞌx saꞌ rubiꞌim lo chiwe echiriꞌ cꞌa cꞌo Galilea,


eng: Becoming terrified, they bowed their faces down to the earth. The men said to them, “Why do you seek the living among the dead?

acr: Lic cꞌut benak ri quinaꞌoj puwi waꞌ, echiriꞌ xakicꞌateꞌt xewinakir caꞌib achijab chiquiwach, lic cawolkꞌin ri quikꞌuꞌ.


eng: They entered in, and didn’t find the Lord Jesus’ body.

acr: Xeboc cꞌu bi chupa ri mukubal, pero na xquirik ta chi rucuerpo ri Kanimajawal Jesucristo.


eng: They found the stone rolled away from the tomb.

acr: Yey xeꞌkiriqa rabꞌaj esam chi chuchiꞌ ri muqubꞌal.


eng: But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they and some others came to the tomb, bringing the spices which they had prepared.

acr: Ri nabe kꞌij re ri semana lic anim tan rixokib e petinak lo Galilea y jujun chic ixokib, xebec pa mukutal wi ri Jesús, yey cucꞌaꞌam bi cunabal lic quiꞌ ruxlab, ri quiyijbam lok.

eng: This man went to Pilate, and asked for Jesus’ body.

acr: Xopon cꞌu chwach ri Pilato y xuꞌtzꞌonoj che cayaꞌ luwar che cumuk rucuerpo ri Jesús. Y xyaꞌ luwar che.


eng: All his acquaintances and the women who followed with him from Galilee stood at a distance, watching these things.

acr: Yey cꞌu ri lic xquetaꞌmaj uwach ri Jesús cucꞌ tak rixokib e petinak rucꞌ chwi xel lo Galilea, rique xecꞌojiꞌ pana chinimanaj y xquil ronoje ri xuꞌano.


eng: All the multitudes that came together to see this, when they saw the things that were done, returned home beating their breasts.

acr: Ecꞌu ruqꞌuiyal winak echiriꞌ xquilo saꞌ ri xuꞌano, xebel chiriꞌ, caquitꞌikitꞌaꞌ ruwa quicꞌuꞌx ruma quixiꞌin ib.


eng: When the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, “Certainly this was a righteous man.”

eng: The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn in two.

acr: oxib ora na xwon ta ri kꞌij. Yey chupa cꞌu ri Rocho Dios, ri telón xrichꞌrob lo chunicꞌajal.


eng: It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour.

acr: Ecꞌuchiriꞌ, xubiꞌij che ri Jesús: —Wajawal, chincꞌuna co chicꞌuꞌx la echiriꞌ coꞌltakana la —xchaꞌ.

acr: Jecꞌulaꞌ riꞌ xquiꞌan ri soldados, lic caquichꞌamij ri Jesús. Quekib rucꞌ y caquibiꞌtisij vinagre che re cutijo,


eng: Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing.” Dividing his garments among them, they cast lots.

acr: Ewi ri Jesús xubiꞌij: —Nukaw, cuyu la quimac, ma na quimajom ta usucꞌ saꞌ wa quetajin che uꞌanic —xchaꞌ. Ecꞌu ri soldados rucꞌ jun sorteo xquijach quib puwi rukꞌuꞌ.

eng: There were also others, two criminals, led with him to be put to death.

eng: For if they do these things in the green tree, what will be done in the dry?”

acr: Ma we cayaꞌ pa camic junok na jinta umac, ¿saꞌ cꞌu riꞌ ri caquicꞌulumaj ri lic cꞌo quimac? —xchaꞌ.
