eng: In that same hour, Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, “I thank you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight.”

eng: For Jesus was commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For the unclean spirit had often seized the man. He was kept under guard and bound with chains and fetters. Breaking the bonds apart, he was driven by the demon into the desert.

acr: (Xubiꞌij waꞌ ma ri Jesús cutak ri itzelilaj uxlabixel chaꞌ quel bi che rachi. Yey lic cꞌo tan kꞌij rachi cꞌo pukꞌab waꞌ. Y tob cayut pa carena y pa griyetas, ronoje curakij y cacꞌam bi ruma ri itzel uxlabixel pa tak luwar catzꞌintzꞌotic.)

acr: Ma copon ri kꞌij echiriꞌ janipa ri na kꞌalajisam taj, cakꞌalajisax na; yey janipa ri ewatalic, quetaꞌmaxic.


eng: “No one, when he has lit a lamp, covers it with a container or puts it under a bed; but puts it on a stand, that those who enter in may see the light.

acr: »Na jinta junok cutzij juna akꞌ y cuchꞌuk uwiꞌ rucꞌ juna mulul re pajbal o cujuꞌ chuxeꞌ ruwarabal. Ma ri cuꞌan che, e cuya lo chupa rucꞌolibal chicaj chaꞌ jelaꞌ cutzij quiwiꞌ ri queboc bi.


eng: Those in the good ground, these are those who with an honest and good heart, having heard the word, hold it tightly, and produce fruit with perseverance.

eng: What fell among the thorns, these are those who have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life; and they bring no fruit to maturity.

acr: »Ri xtzak can pa tak qꞌuix, e pachaꞌ ri ticawex caquita Ruchꞌaꞌtem ri Dios, yey na caquiꞌan taj saꞌ ri cubiꞌij. Coqꞌuil cꞌu riꞌ casach uwach Ruchꞌaꞌtem ri Dios cꞌo pa canimaꞌ ruma rubis quicꞌuꞌx, ri quibeyomalil y rukusil ruwachulew; y na chom ta cꞌu riꞌ ri quilitaj che ri quibinic.


eng: Those on the rock are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; but these have no root. They believe for a while, then fall away in time of temptation.

acr: »Ri xtzak can pa tak abaj, e pachaꞌ ri ticawex caquita Ruchꞌaꞌtem ri Dios y caquicꞌul rucꞌ quiꞌcotemal; noꞌj na e tiquil ta chi utz. Caquicoj cꞌu Ruchꞌaꞌtem xa queb oxib kꞌij; yey echiriꞌ cacꞌun lo cꞌambal quipa, caquesaj bi quib chirij ri Dios.

eng: He said, “To you it is given to know the mysteries of God’s Kingdom, but to the rest it is given in parables, that ‘seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.’
