¹And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease.

¹Sa' jun li cutan li Jesús quixbokeb lix tzolom cablaju riq'uin ut quixq'ueheb xcuanquil chirisinquil li mâus aj musik'ej ut quixq'ueheb xcuanquil chixq'uirtesinquileb li yaj, a' yalak c'a'ru chi xyajelil ut raylal.

²Now the names of the twelve apostles are these; The first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother;

²A'an a'in lix c'aba'eb lix tzolom cablaju, li quixxakab chok' x-apóstol: li xbên, a'an laj Simón, Pedro nayeman re; ut laj Andrés li rîtz'in; laj Jacobo ut laj Juan li rîtz'in. Laj Zebedeo, a'an lix yucua'eb;

³Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican; James the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus;

³laj Felipe ut laj Bartolomé; laj Tomás ut laj Mateo laj titz'ol toj; laj Jacobo li ralal laj Alfeo ut laj Lebeo aj Tadeo xcab xc'aba',

⁴Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.

⁴laj Simón aj Canaán, ut laj Judas Iscariote, a' li quik'axtesin re li Jesús sa' ruk'eb li xic' neque'iloc re.

⁵These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:

⁵Nak quixtaklaheb li cablaju a'in chi c'anjelac, li Jesús quixchak'rabiheb ut quixye reheb: -Mexxic sa' lix tenamiteb li mâcua'eb aj judío chi moco tex-oc sa' xtenamiteb aj Samaria.

⁶But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

⁶Texxic ban riq'uineb laj judío. A'aneb li ralal xc'ajol laj Israel. Chanchaneb li carner li sachenakeb.

⁷And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.

⁷Ut nak yôkex chi xic, yôkex chixch'olobanquil lix yâlal ut chixyebal, "cuulac re xk'ehil nak tâq'uehek' sa' xcuanquil xban li Dios li tâcuânk xcuanquil sa' xbêneb li ralal xc'ajol," cha'kex.

⁸Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.

⁸Cheq'uirtesiheb li yaj, checuaclesiheb cui'chic chi yo'yo li camenak. Cheq'uirtesiheb li saklep rix ut cherisiheb li mâus aj musik'ej. Chi mâtan xec'ul lê cuanquil ut chi mâtan ajcui' têbânu li usilal.

⁹Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses,

⁹Mâc'a' c'a'ru têc'am chêrix. Inc'a' têc'am li oro chi moco li plata, chi moco li coc' tumin k'an ru.

¹⁰Nor scrip for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat.

¹⁰Chi moco têc'am xna'aj li c'a'ak re ru tâc'anjelak êre sa' be, chi moco têc'am xjalbal lê rak', chi moco xjalbal êxâb, chi moco êxuk'. Mêc'am li c'a'ak re ru a'in xban nak laj c'anjel, a'an tento nak tâq'uehek' re lix tzacaêmk.

¹¹And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, enquire who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye go thence.

¹¹Ut yalak bar tenamitil ut c'alebâl toxex-ocak cui', patz'omak ani tâc'uluk êre chi sa sa' xch'ôl, ut aran texhilânk riq'uin toja' yâl jok'e texxic.

¹²And when ye come into an house, salute it.

¹²Ut nak tex-oc sa' li cab, q'uehomak xsahil xch'ôleb ut têtz'âma li tuktûquil usilal sa' xbêneb li cuanqueb sa' li cab.

¹³And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you.

¹³Ut cui texc'ulek' sa' usilal, tâcanâk riq'uineb li tuktûquil usilal. Ut cui inc'a' texc'ulek' sa' usilal, inc'a' ajcui' tâcanâk riq'uineb li tuktûquil usilal. Tâsuk'îk cui'chic êriq'uin.

¹⁴And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.

¹⁴Ut yalak ani inc'a' tâc'uluk êre chi moco târabi lê râtin, nak tex-êlk sa' li cab a'an, malaj ut sa' li tenamit, têchik'chik'i li poks cuan chêrok chok' retalil nak inc'a' chic texc'oxlak chirix li na'ajej a'an.

¹⁵Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.

¹⁵Relic chi yâl tinye êre nak toj cubenak ca'ch'in lix tojbal xmâqueb li tenamit Sodoma ut li tenamit Gomorra chiru lix tojbal xmâqueb li tenamit a'an sa' xk'ehil li rakba âtin.

¹⁶Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.

¹⁶Chenauhak nak lâin tintaklânk êre sa' xyânkeb li xic' neque'iloc êre. Chanchanakex li carner sa' xyânkeb laj xoj. Sêbak êch'ôl jo'cakex li c'anti' ut tîcak êch'ôl jo'cakex li paloma.

¹⁷But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues;

¹⁷Cauhak lê ch'ôl xban nak cuanqueb li te'k'axtesînk êre sa' ruk'eb laj rakol âtin. Ut chi mâc'a' êmâc texsaq'uek' xbaneb sa' li cab li neque'xch'utub cui' ribeb laj judío.

¹⁸And ye shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.

¹⁸Ut texc'amek' chiruheb li acuabej ut chiruheb li rey sa' inc'aba' lâin. Ut têch'olob lix yâlal chiruheb a'an, jo' ajcui' chiruheb li mâcua'eb aj judío.

¹⁹But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak.

¹⁹Ut nak toxexxakabâk chiruheb, mexc'oxlac chirix li c'a'ru têye, chi moco texc'oxlak chirix chanru tex-âtinak xban nak sa' li hônal a'an tâyehek' êre c'a'ru têye.

²⁰For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you.

²⁰Mâcua' lâex li tex-âtinak. A' ban li Santil Musik'ej tââtinak. Yal tixto'oni lix tz'ûmal êre.

²¹And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and cause them to be put to death.

²¹Sa' eb li cutan a'an, cuan li asbej tixk'axtesi li îtz'inbej re tâcamsîk ut cuan li îtz'inbej tixk'axtesi li asbej. Ut cuan li yucua'bej tixk'axtesi li alalbej. Ut cuan li alalbej xic' te'rileb lix na' xyucua' ut te'xq'ueheb chi camsîc.

²²And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.

²²Ut chixjunileb xic' te'ilok êre sa' inc'aba'. Abanan li ani te'cuyuk xc'ulbal li raylal toj sa' roso'jic lix yu'am, eb a'an te'colek'.

²³But when they persecute you in this city, flee ye into another: for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come.

²³Nak texrahobtesîk sa' jun li tenamit, texxic sa' jalan chic. Relic chi yâl ninye êre nak toj mâji' ajcui' nequechoy xbeninquil chixjunileb li tenamit cuanqueb Israel te'xnau nak xolinêlk lâin li C'ajolbej.

²⁴The disciple is not above his master, nor the servant above his lord.

²⁴Junak li yô chi tzoloc inc'a' naru tixk'ax xcuanquil li yô chi tzoloc re, chi moco li môs naxk'ax xcuanquil lix patrón.

²⁵It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more shall they call them of his household?

²⁵Chic'ojlâk xch'ôl li yô chi tzoloc nak tâcuulak jo' laj tzolol re, ut li môs jo'cak lix patrón. Cui aj tza nayehe' re laj êchal cab, ¿ma toja' ta chic inc'a' te'yehek' aj tza reheb li ralal xc'ajol?

²⁶Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.

²⁶Jo'can utan mexxucuac chiruheb li xic' neque'iloc êre. Mâ jun na'leb mukmu anakcuan chi inc'a' ta tâtaumânk ru mokon, ut mâc'a' mukmu anakcuan chi inc'a' tâc'utbesîk.

²⁷What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops.

²⁷Li c'a'ru xexintzol cui' êjunes, a'an têye chiruheb chixjunileb, ut li c'a'ru xinye êre êjunes, a'an têye chi cau xyâb êcux chiruheb chixjunileb li tenamit.

²⁸And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

²⁸Mexxucuac chiruheb laj camsinel xban nak li âmej inc'a' naru te'xcamsi. A' li têxucua ru, a'an li Kâcua' li cuan xcuanquil chixcamsinquil li tibelej ut chixtaklanquil li âmej sa' xbalba.

²⁹Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father.

²⁹¿Ma inc'a' ta bi' nac'ayîc cuib chi tzentzeyul chi jun centavo? K'axal cubenak xtz'ak, abanan mâ jun li ch'ina tzentzeyul nacam chi inc'a' ta tixnau li Dios lê Yucua'.

³⁰But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

³⁰Jo'can ajcui' li rismal lê jolom ajlanbileb chixjunil xban li Dios.

³¹Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.

³¹Jo'can nak mexxucuac chiruheb li xic' neque'iloc êre xban nak lâex k'axal terto êtz'ak chiruheb nabal chi tzentzeyul.

³²Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.

³²Li ani naxye chiruheb li tenamit nak niquinixpâb, lâin tinye chiru lin Yucua' cuan sa' choxa nak a'an li cualal.

³³But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.

³³Ut li ani tâtz'ektânânk cue chiruheb li tenamit, lâin tintz'ektâna ajcui' a'an chiru lin Yucua' cuan sa' choxa.

³⁴Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.

³⁴Mêc'oxla nak xinchal ta chixq'uebal li tuktûquil usilal sa' ruchich'och'. Xinchal ban chixch'olobanquil lix yâlal; ut xban lix yâlal li nach'olobâc, nacuan li ch'a'ajquilal.

³⁵For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.

³⁵Xinchal ut chixch'olobanquil lix yâlal ut li ani tâpâbânk cue, te'xc'ul li raylal. Li alalbej tâcuânk sa' ra xîc' riq'uin lix yucua', ut li co'bej tâcuânk sa' ra xîc' riq'uin lix na', ut li alibej tâcuânk sa' ra xîc' riq'uin li na'bej sa' inc'aba' lâin.

³⁶And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

³⁶Li cuanqueb sa' jun cabal, xic' te'ril rib sa' inc'aba' lâin.

³⁷He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.

³⁷Ut ani k'axal naxra xna' xyucua' chicuu lâin, moco xc'ulub ta nak tinc'ul chok' cualal. Ut ani k'axal naxra li ralal xc'ajol chicuu lâin, moco xc'ulub ta nak tinc'ul chok' cualal.

³⁸And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.

³⁸Li ani tixcuy intâkenquil usta tixc'ul li camsîc sa' inc'aba', li jun a'an xc'ulub nak tinc'ul chok' cualal. Abanan li ani inc'a' tixcuy intâkenquil, li jun a'an moco xc'ulub ta nak tinc'ul chok' cualal.

³⁹He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.

³⁹Li ani naxra lix yu'am arin sa' ruchich'och', a'an tixsach li junelic yu'am. Ut li ani tixsach lix yu'am arin sa' ruchich'och' sa' inc'aba' lâin, a'an târêchani li junelic yu'am.

⁴⁰He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.

⁴⁰Li ani tâc'uluk êre lâex, tinixc'ul ajcui' lâin. Ut li ani tâc'uluk cue, tixc'ul ajcui' li xtaklan chak cue.

⁴¹He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward; and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward.

⁴¹Li ani tâc'uluk re junak profeta chi anchal xch'ôl xban nak a'an naxye râtin li Dios, li jo' q'uial lix k'ajcâmunquil li tixc'ul li profeta, a'an ajcui' li tixc'ul li tâc'uluk re.

⁴²And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.

⁴²Li ani tixq'ue jun sec'ak ruc'a junak reheb lin tzolom usta cubenak xcuanquil, cui tixq'ue li ruc'a xban nak a'an intzolom, relic chi yâl ninye êre nak li jun a'an tixc'ul lix k'ajcâmunquil.
