¹Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.

¹Li Jesús quixch'utubeb lix tzolom cablaju ut quixq'ueheb xcuanquil chirisinquileb li mâus aj musik'ej ut quixq'ueheb ajcui' xcuanquil chixq'uirtesinquileb li yaj.

²And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.

²Quixtaklaheb chixch'olobanquil resil lix nimajcual cuanquilal li Dios ut chixq'uirtesinquileb li yaj.

³And he said unto them, Take nothing for your journey, neither staves, nor scrip, neither bread, neither money; neither have two coats apiece.

³Quixye reheb: -Mâc'a' têc'am êre nak texxic. Inc'a' têc'am êxuk', chi moco êbôls, chi moco êtzacaêmk chi moco êtumin. Ca'aj cui' lê rak' li cuan chêrix têc'am.

⁴And whatsoever house ye enter into, there abide, and thence depart.

⁴Nak texc'ulek' sa' junak cab, aran texcanâk. Toj tâcuulak xk'ehil nak texxic, tex-êlk sa' li na'ajej a'an.

⁵And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.

⁵Cui texcuulak sa' junak na'ajej bar cui' inc'a' texc'ulek', tex-êlk riq'uineb ut têchik' li poks chêrok jo' retalil li raylal te'xc'ul xban nak inc'a' que'raj rabinquil li râtin li Dios, chan li Jesús.

⁶And they departed, and went through the towns, preaching the gospel, and healing every where.

⁶Côeb ut lix tzolom li Jesús sa' eb li junjûnk chi na'ajej ut yôqueb chixch'olobanquil resil li colba-ib. Ut yôqueb ajcui' chixq'uirtesinquileb li yaj.

⁷Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by him: and he was perplexed, because that it was said of some, that John was risen from the dead;

⁷Laj Herodes li nataklan aran Galilea quirabi resil chixjunil li yô chixbânunquil li Jesús ut qui-oc xc'a'ux xban nak cuan yôqueb chi yehoc re nak a'an laj Juan li xcuacli cui'chic chi yo'yo sa' xyânkeb li camenak.

⁸And of some, that Elias had appeared; and of others, that one of the old prophets was risen again.

⁸Ut cuan ajcui' li yôqueb chi yehoc re nak a'an li profeta Elías li xchal cui'chic. Ut cuan cui'chic li yôqueb chi yehoc re nak mâre a'an jun xcomoneb li profeta li que'cuan junxil li xcuacli cui'chic chi yo'yo sa' xyânkeb li camenak.

⁹And Herod said, John have I beheaded: but who is this, of whom I hear such things? And he desired to see him.

⁹Laj Herodes quixye sa' xch'ôl: -A'an mâcua' laj Juan xban nak lâin quintaklan re xch'otbal xcux. ¿Ani anchal a'an li yôquin chirabinquil resil? chan. Jo'can nak târaj rilbal ru.

¹⁰And the apostles, when they were returned, told him all that they had done. And he took them, and went aside privately into a desert place belonging to the city called Bethsaida.

¹⁰Nak que'suk'i chak lix tzolom chixbânunquil li c'anjel que'taklâc cui', que'xserak'i re li Jesús li c'a'ru quilaje'xbânu chak. Li Jesús quixc'ameb xjuneseb sa' jun na'ajej bar mâc'a' cuan, li cuan xcuênt li tenamit Betsaida.

¹¹And the people, when they knew it, followed him: and he received them, and spake unto them of the kingdom of God, and healed them that had need of healing.

¹¹Abanan li q'uila tenamit que'xq'ue retal nak li Jesús yôqueb chi xic sa' li na'ajej a'an, ut que'côeb chirix. Li Jesús quixc'uleb ut qui-oc chixch'olobanquil xyâlal chiruheb chirix lix nimajcual cuanquilal li Dios. Ut quixq'uirtesiheb ajcui' li yaj.

¹²And when the day began to wear away, then came the twelve, and said unto him, Send the multitude away, that they may go into the towns and country round about, and lodge, and get victuals: for we are here in a desert place.

¹²Nak ac yô chi ecuûc, lix tzolom cablaju que'côeb bar cuan cui' li Jesús ut que'xye re: -Chak'rabiheb li tenamit re nak te'xic xsic'bal lix na'ajeb bar te'hilânk cui' ut te'xsic' ajcui' lix tzacaêmk sa' eb li c'alebâl ut sa' eb li na'ajej li cuanqueb chi nach', chanqueb re.

¹³But he said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, We have no more but five loaves and two fishes; except we should go and buy meat for all this people.

¹³Li Jesús quixye reheb: -Q'uehomak xcuaheb lâex. Ut eb a'an que'xye: -Mâc'a' tzacaêmk kiq'uin lâo. Ôb ajcui' li caxlan cua ut cuib ajcui' li car cuan. ¿Malaj ut yôcat chixc'oxlanquil nak lâo toxic chixlok'bal xtzacaêmkeb li q'uila tenamit a'in? chanqueb lix tzolom.

¹⁴For they were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them sit down by fifties in a company.

¹⁴Chixjunileb li cuanqueb aran cuanqueb tana ôb mil chi cuînk. Li Jesús quixye reheb lix tzolom nak te'xchunub ribeb chi ch'ûtal, chi lajêtk roxc'âl.

¹⁵And they did so, and made them all sit down.

¹⁵Eb lix tzolom li Jesús que'xbânu jo' quiyehe' reheb. Ut li cristian que'chunla chi ch'ûtal.

¹⁶Then he took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed them, and brake, and gave to the disciples to set before the multitude.

¹⁶Li Jesús quixchap li ôb chi caxlan cua ut li cuib chi car. Qui-iloc sa' choxa. Quixbantioxi chiru li Dios. Quixjachi ut quixq'ue reheb lix tzolom re nak te'xjeq'ui reheb li q'uila tenamit.

¹⁷And they did eat, and were all filled: and there was taken up of fragments that remained to them twelve baskets.

¹⁷Que'cua'ac chixjunileb toj retal que'c'ojla xch'ôl. Ut cablaju chacach chic li rela' quicana.

¹⁸And it came to pass, as he was alone praying, his disciples were with him: and he asked them, saying, Whom say the people that I am?

¹⁸Sa' jun li cutan li Jesús yô chi tijoc xjunes nak que'cuulac lix tzolom riq'uin. Li Jesús quixpatz' reheb lix tzolom ut quixye: -¿Anihin lâin nak neque'xye li tenamit? chan.

¹⁹They answering said, John the Baptist; but some say, Elias; and others say, that one of the old prophets is risen again.

¹⁹Eb a'an que'xye re: -Cuan neque'yehoc re nak lâat laj Juan laj Cubsihom Ha'. Ut cuan ajcui' neque'yehoc re nak lâat li profeta Elías. Ut cuan cui'chic neque'yehoc re nak lâat jun reheb li profeta li que'cuan najter li xcuacli cui'chic chi yo'yo, chanqueb.

²⁰He said unto them, But whom say ye that I am? Peter answering said, The Christ of God.

²⁰-Ut lâex, ¿anihin lâin nak nequec'oxla? chan li Jesús reheb. Quichak'oc laj Pedro ut quixye re: -Lâat li Cristo, laj Colonel li yechi'inbil xban li Dios, chan.

²¹And he straitly charged them, and commanded them to tell no man that thing;

²¹Ut li Jesús quixtz'âma chiruheb lix tzolom ut quixye reheb: -Mâ ani aj e têye nak lâin li Cristo, chan reheb.

²²Saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be slain, and be raised the third day.

²²Ut quixye ajcui' reheb: -Lâin li C'ajolbej. Tento nak tinc'ul nabal li raylal. Tintz'ektânâk xbaneb li xakabanbileb chi c'anjelac sa' li templo, jo' ajcui' xbaneb li xbênil aj tij, ut xbaneb laj tz'îb. Tincamsîk, abanan tincuaclîk cui'chic chi yo'yo sa' rox li cutan, chan li Jesús.

²³And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

²³Li Jesús quixye reheb chixjunileb li cuanqueb aran: -Li ani târaj inpâbanquil tento nak tixtz'ektâna li c'a'ru naxrahi ru lix ch'ôl. Tixcuy xnumsinquil li raylal li tixc'ul, usta tâcamsîk sa' inc'aba'. Ut chinixtâkehak.

²⁴For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.

²⁴Li ani tâtz'ektânânk cue re xcolbal rix lix yu'am arin sa' ruchich'och', tixtz'ek li junelic yu'am. A'ut li ani naxsach lix yu'am arin sa' ruchich'och' sa' inc'aba' lâin, a'an târêchani li junelic yu'am.

²⁵For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?

²⁵¿C'a'ru tixra junak li cuînk cui târêchani chixjunil xbiomal li ruchich'och' ut tixtz'ektâna li junelic yu'am?

²⁶For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father's, and of the holy angels.

²⁶Li ani tâxutânâk inban malaj ut xban li cuâtin, lâin li Alalbej tinxutânâk ajcui' xbaneb nak tinchâlk chak riq'uin inlok'al ut riq'uin xlok'al lin Yucua' cuochbeneb li santil ángel, chan li Jesús.

²⁷But I tell you of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.

²⁷Ut quixye ajcui': -Relic chi yâl tinye êre nak cuanqueb arin sa' êyânk li inc'a' te'câmk toj te'ril lix nimajcual cuanquilal li Dios, chan li Jesús.

²⁸And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray.

²⁸Cuakxakib cutan na chic xyebal eb a âtin a'in nak li Jesús cô chi tijoc sa' xbên jun li tzûl rochbeneb laj Pedro, laj Jacobo ut laj Juan.

²⁹And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering.

²⁹Nak yô chi tijoc li Jesús, quijalano' li rilobâl chiruheb. Ut li rak' sak sak ut nalemtz'un.

³⁰And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moses and Elias:

³⁰Ut que'ril nak cuibeb li cuînk yôqueb chi âtinac riq'uin li Jesús. A'aneb laj Moisés ut laj Elías.

³¹Who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he should accomplish at Jerusalem.

³¹Neque'lemtz'un ut c'ajo' lix lok'aleb nak yôqueb chi âtinac chirix lix camic li Jesús li tenebanbil sa' xbên aran Jerusalén.

³²But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: and when they were awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him.

³²Usta yôqueb xcuara laj Pedro ut li cuanqueb rochben, abanan inc'a' que'cuar. Yôqueb ban chirilbal lix lok'al li Jesús jo' ajcui' li cuib chi cuînk li cuanqueb rochben.

³³And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Peter said unto Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias: not knowing what he said.

³³Nak ac oqueb re xcanabanquil li Jesús li cuib chi cuînk, laj Pedro quixye re li Jesús: -Kâcua', c'ajo' xchak'al ru nak cuanco arin. Xkayîb ta oxibak muhebâl arin. Jun âcue, jun re laj Moisés ut jun re laj Elías, chan. Quixye chi jo'can xban nak inc'a' quixtau ru lix yâlal li quiril.

³⁴While he thus spake, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them: and they feared as they entered into the cloud.

³⁴Nak toj yô chi âtinac laj Pedro, quichal jun li chok sa' xbêneb. C'ajo' nak que'xucuac nak que'mukun sa' li chok.

³⁵And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.

³⁵Que'rabi nak li Dios quiâtinac sa' li chok ut quixye: -A'in li cualal li sic'bil ru inban. Cherabi li c'a'ru tixye, chan.

³⁶And when the voice was past, Jesus was found alone. And they kept it close, and told no man in those days any of those things which they had seen.

³⁶Nak quicana li âtinac, xjunes chic li Jesús quicana. Ut eb a'an mâc'a' chic que'xye. Ut chiruheb li cutan a'an mâ ani aj e que'xye li c'a'ru que'ril.

³⁷And it came to pass, that on the next day, when they were come down from the hill, much people met him.

³⁷Jo' cuulajak chic nak quicube sa' li tzûl, nabaleb li q'uila tenamit que'cuulac chi c'uluc re li Jesús.

³⁸And, behold, a man of the company cried out, saying, Master, I beseech thee, look upon my son: for he is mine only child.

³⁸Jun li cuînk quiâtinac chak sa' xyânkeb li tenamit ut quixye chi cau xyâb xcux: -At tzolonel, nintz'âma châcuu nak tâcuil li cualal xban nak ca'aj cui' a'an chicuu.

³⁹And, lo, a spirit taketh him, and he suddenly crieth out; and it teareth him that he foameth again, and bruising him hardly departeth from him.

³⁹Cuan mâus aj musik'ej riq'uin. Nak naniman xyajel naxjap re ut nach'ikch'ikîc chi cau xban li mâus aj musik'ej ut na-el xcuokx sa' re. Ut inc'a' naraj xcanabanquil li cualal.

⁴⁰And I besought thy disciples to cast him out; and they could not.

⁴⁰Xintz'âma chiruheb lâ tzolom nak te'risi li mâus aj musik'ej, abanan inc'a' xe'ru chirisinquil, chan li cuînk.

⁴¹And Jesus answering said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and suffer you? Bring thy son hither.

⁴¹Quichak'oc li Jesús ut quixye reheb: -Lâex tenamit li cuanquex anakcuan, chi tîc inc'a' nequexpâban ut inc'a' us êna'leb. ¿Jo' najtil chic tincuânk êriq'uin re nak texpâbânk? ¿Jo' najtil chic texincuy nak nequec'oxla? C'am chak li al arin cuiq'uin, chan li Jesús.

⁴²And as he was yet a coming, the devil threw him down, and tare him. And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child, and delivered him again to his father.

⁴²Nak yô chi xic li al riq'uin li Jesús, li mâus aj musik'ej quixcut li al sa' ch'och' ut quixch'ikle chi cau. Abanan li Jesús quixk'us li mâus aj musik'ej. Quixq'uirtesi li al ut quixk'axtesi re lix yucua'.

⁴³And they were all amazed at the mighty power of God. But while they wondered every one at all things which Jesus did, he said unto his disciples,

⁴³Ut chixjunileb li cuanqueb aran sachsôqueb xch'ôl chirilbal nak k'axal nim xcuanquil li Dios. Nak toj sachsôqueb xch'ôl li tenamit chi c'oxlac chirix li quic'ulman, li Jesús quixye reheb lix tzolom:

⁴⁴Let these sayings sink down into your ears: for the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men.

⁴⁴-Cherabihak chi us li tinye êre. Tento nak lâin li C'ajolbej tink'axtesîk sa' ruk'eb li cuînk li xic' neque'iloc cue, chan li Jesús.

⁴⁵But they understood not this saying, and it was hid from them, that they perceived it not: and they feared to ask him of that saying.

⁴⁵Abanan eb lix tzolom inc'a' que'xtau ru li c'a'ru quixye, xban nak toj mâji' nacuulac xk'ehil nak te'xtau ru. Ut que'xutânac chixpatz'bal re c'a'ru xyâlal li quixye li Jesús reheb.

⁴⁶Then there arose a reasoning among them, which of them should be greatest.

⁴⁶Eb lix tzolom li Jesús que'oc chixcuech'inquil ribeb. Ut yôqueb chixpatz'bal ani reheb li nimak xcuanquil.

⁴⁷And Jesus, perceiving the thought of their heart, took a child, and set him by him,

⁴⁷Nak li Jesús quixq'ue retal li c'a'ru yôqueb chixc'oxlanquil, quixc'am jun li ch'ina al ut quixxakab chiru.

⁴⁸And said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this child in my name receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me: for he that is least among you all, the same shall be great.

⁴⁸Ut quixye reheb: -Li ani tâc'uluk re junak ch'ina al jo' a'in sa' inc'aba' lâin, tinixc'ul ajcui' lâin; ut li ani tâc'uluk cue lâin, tixc'ul ajcui' li ani xtaklan chak cue. Jo'can nak li ani cubenak xcuanquil sa' êyânk anakcuan, a'anak chic li nimak xcuanquil.

⁴⁹And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name; and we forbad him, because he followeth not with us.

⁴⁹Laj Juan quixye re li Jesús: -At Kâcua', xkil jun li cuînk yô chi isînc mâus aj musik'ej sa' âc'aba'. Ut lâo xkaye re nak inc'a' tixbânu a'an xban nak moco kacomon ta, chan.

⁵⁰And Jesus said unto him, Forbid him not: for he that is not against us is for us.

⁵⁰Ut li Jesús quichak'oc ut quixye re: -Mêk'us li cuînk a'an xban nak li ani inc'a' xic' na-iloc ke, a'an na-oquen chikix, chan.

⁵¹And it came to pass, when the time was come that he should be received up, he stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem,

⁵¹Nak ac cuulac re xk'ehil nak li Jesús tâc'amek' cui'chic xban li Dios sa' choxa, quixcacuubresi xch'ôl chi xic Jerusalén.

⁵²And sent messengers before his face: and they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him.

⁵²Li Jesús quixtakla xtakl sa' jun tenamit cuan sa' xcuênt Samaria, re nak te'xcauresi xna'aj re tâhilânk cui'.

⁵³And they did not receive him, because his face was as though he would go to Jerusalem.

⁵³Abanan li cuanqueb sa' li tenamit a'an inc'a' que'raj xc'ulbal li Jesús xban nak que'xq'ue retal nak yô chi xic Jerusalén.

⁵⁴And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did?

⁵⁴Nak laj Jacobo ut laj Juan que'xq'ue retal nak inc'a' quic'ule' li Jesús sa' li tenamit a'an, que'xye re: -¿Ma tâcuaj nak takatz'âma nak tâcubek chak xam sa' choxa re nak tâc'atek' li tenamit a'an jo' quixbânu laj Elías? chanqueb.

⁵⁵But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of.

⁵⁵Quixsuk'isi rib li Jesús ut quixk'useb. Quixye reheb: -¿C'a'ru musik'ejil cuan êriq'uin lâex nak inc'a' nequetau ru?

⁵⁶For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. And they went to another village.

⁵⁶Lâin li C'ajolbej inc'a' xinchal chixsachbal ruheb li cristian. Xinchal ban chixcolbaleb, chan li Jesús. Ut chirix a'an, que'côeb sa' jalan chic na'ajej.

⁵⁷And it came to pass, that, as they went in the way, a certain man said unto him, Lord, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.

⁵⁷Nak yôqueb chi xic li Jesús, jun li cuînk quicuulac riq'uin ut quixye re: -At tzolonel, tincuaj âtâkenquil yalak bar tatxic, chan re.

⁵⁸And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.

⁵⁸Li Jesús quichak'oc ut quixye re: -C'oxla chi us ma tâcuy intâkenquil. Li yac cuanqueb xjul sa' pec, ut li xul li neque'rupupic chiru choxa cuanqueb xsoc. Abanan lâin li C'ajolbej mâc'a' inna'aj bar târûk tinhilânk cui'.-

⁵⁹And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.

⁵⁹Li Jesús quixye re jun chic: -Chinâtâke, chan. Quichak'oc li cuînk ut quixye: -Kâcua', chinâcuy. Inmukak cuan lin yucua' tojo'nak tinxic châcuix, chan.

⁶⁰Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of God.

⁶⁰Li Jesús quixye re: -Canabeb li toj camenakeb sa' li mâc xmukakeb cuan lix camenak. Ut lâat, ayu. Ye chak resil lix nimajcual cuanquilal li Dios, chan.

⁶¹And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house.

⁶¹Ut jun chic li cuînk quixye: -At Kâcua', tatintâke. Abanan inchak'rabihakeb cuan chak li cuanqueb sa' cuochoch, chan re.Ut li Jesús quixye re: -Li ani naxtiquib c'anjelac chiru li Dios ut cui toj yô chixc'oxlanquil li c'a'ru re, li jun a'an inc'a' us chok' aj c'anjel sa' lix nimajcual cuanquilal li Dios, chan li Jesús.

⁶²And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.

⁶²Ut li Jesús quixye re: -Li ani naxtiquib c'anjelac chiru li Dios ut cui toj yô chixc'oxlanquil li c'a'ru re, li jun a'an inc'a' us chok' aj c'anjel sa' lix nimajcual cuanquilal li Dios, chan li Jesús.
