¹Dare any of you, having a matter against his neighbor, go to law before the unrighteous, and not before the saints?

¹Cui cuan junak sa' êyânk cuan xch'a'ajquilal riq'uin junak xhermân, ¿ma târûk ta bi' tâxic chiruheb laj rakol âtin re li ruchich'och'? ¿Ma inc'a' raj us nak riq'uineb laj pâbanel tâxic?

²Don’t you know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters?

²¿Ma inc'a' nequenau nak sa' jun cutan lâo aj pâbanel torakok âtin sa' xbêneb chixjunileb li cuanqueb sa' ruchich'och'? Ut cui lâo torakok âtin sa' xbêneb li cuanqueb sa' ruchich'och', ¿c'a'ut nak inc'a' târûk takayîb ru li kach'a'ajquilal sa' xyâlal chi kibil kib?

³Don’t you know that we will judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life?

³¿Ma inc'a' nequenau nak sa' jun cutan torakok âtin sa' xbêneb li ángel? Ut cui torakok âtin sa' xbêneb li ángel, ¿c'a'ut nak inc'a' târûk torakok âtin sa' xbên li kach'a'ajquilal arin sa' ruchich'och'?

⁴If then, you have to judge things pertaining to this life, do you set them to judge who are of no account in the assembly?

⁴Cui cuan li plêt sa' êyânk, ¿c'a'ut nak nequeq'ue chi rakoc âtin sa' êbên li mâcua'eb aj pâbanel?

⁵I say this to move you to shame. Isn’t there even one wise man among you who would be able to decide between his brothers?

⁵Nequec'ut êxutân nak nequeq'ue chi rakoc âtin sa' êbên li mâcua'eb aj pâbanel. ¿Ma mâc'a' ta bi' junak sa' êyânk cuan xna'leb re târakok âtin sa' êbên lâex aj pâbanel?

⁶But brother goes to law with brother, and that before unbelievers!

⁶Abanan lâex nequec'am lê rech aj pâbanelil chiru junak aj rakol âtin mâcua' aj pâbanel.

⁷Therefore it is already altogether a defect in you, that you have lawsuits one with another. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be defrauded?

⁷Nak nequec'am lê rech aj pâbanelil sa' rakleb âtin nac'utun nak toj mâji' nequetau xyâlal. K'axal us raj nak têcuy li rahobtesîc ut li elk'âc ut inc'a' texxic riq'uin aj rakol âtin.

⁸No, but you yourselves do wrong, and defraud, and that against your brothers.

⁸Abanan lâex inc'a' nequecuy. Lâex ban chic li nequex-elk'ac ut nequebânu li mâusilal reheb lê rech aj pâbanelil.

⁹Or don’t you know that the unrighteous will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don’t be deceived. Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male prostitutes, nor homosexuals,

⁹¿Ma inc'a' nequenau nak eb li inc'a' tîqueb xch'ôl inc'a' te'rêchani lix nimajcual cuanquilal li Dios? Mêbalak'i êrib. Eb laj co'bêt ut eb laj yumbêt inc'a' te'rêchani lix nimajcual cuanquilal li Dios, chi moco li neque'lok'onin re li jalanil dios, chi moco eb laj muxul caxâr.

Jo'can nak mêbalak'i êrib chi xc'oxlanquil nak us yôquex cui toj yôquex chixbânunquil li mâusilal a'in.

¹⁰nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor slanderers, nor extortioners, will inherit the Kingdom of God.

¹⁰Eb laj êlk' ut eb li neque'xrahi ru li biomal inc'a' te'rêchani lix nimajcual cuanquilal li Dios, chi moco laj calajenak, chi moco laj majecuanel, chi moco laj balak' te'rêchani lix nimajcual cuanquilal li Dios.

¹¹Such were some of you, but you were washed. But you were sanctified. But you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and in the Spirit of our God.

¹¹Usta cuanqueb junjûnk sa' êyânk jo'can que'xbânu chak, abanan anakcuan cuybil sachbil chic lix mâqueb. Santobresinbileb chic ut tîcobresinbileb chic lix ch'ôl sa' xc'aba' li Kâcua' Jesucristo ut xban li Santil Musik'ej.

¹²“All things are lawful for me,” but not all things are expedient. “All things are lawful for me,” but I will not be brought under the power of anything.

¹²Cuan li neque'yehoc: Lâin naru tinbânu chixjunil li c'a'ru tincuaj xbânunquil. Yâl nak naru xbânunquil chixjunil abanan moco chixjunil ta us xbânunquil. Lâin naru ninbânu chixjunil li nacuaj, abanan inc'a' tinbânu cui nacuec'a nak junes a'an tâxic inch'ôl chirix.

¹³“Foods for the belly, and the belly for foods,” but God will bring to nothing both it and them. But the body is not for sexual immorality, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.

¹³Li Dios quixyîb li tzacaêmk re li kasa' ut quixyîb li kasa' re li tzacaêmk. Yâl ajcui', aban tâcuulak xk'ehil nak li Dios tixsach li tzacaêmk jo' ajcui' li katibel. Li Dios inc'a' coxyo'obtesi re li co'bêtac yumbêtac. Coxyo'obtesi ban re nak toc'anjelak chiru li Kâcua'. Ut li Kâcua' a'an li na-iloc ke.

¹⁴Now God raised up the Lord, and will also raise us up by his power.

¹⁴Li Dios li quicuaclesin re li Kâcua' Jesucristo chi yo'yo sa' xyânkeb li camenak, a'an ajcui' tâcuaclesînk ke chi yo'yo riq'uin lix cuanquil.

¹⁵Don’t you know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them members of a prostitute? May it never be!

¹⁵¿Ma inc'a' nequenau nak lâo aj pâbanel jo' li rok ruk' li Kâcua' Jesucristo? ¿Ma târûk ta bi' takajunaji kib riq'uineb li ixk li neque'xc'ayi rib? Mâ jok'e naru xban nak lâo rok ruk' li Cristo ut junajo chic riq'uin nak cuanco.

¹⁶Or don’t you know that he who is joined to a prostitute is one body? For, “The two,” says he, “will become one flesh.” Genesis 2:24

¹⁶¿Ma inc'a' nequenau nak li ani namâcob riq'uin junak ixk aj mâc junajeb chi tz'ejcualej neque'cana? Tz'îbanbil sa' li Santil Hu nak junajakeb chi tz'ejcualej chi xca'bichaleb.

¹⁷But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit.

¹⁷Ut ani naxjunaji rib riq'uin li Kâcua', a'an junaj chic riq'uin sa' musik'ej.

¹⁸Flee sexual immorality! “Every sin that a man does is outside the body,” but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.

¹⁸Mêbânu chic li mâusilal. Chixjunil li c'a'ak re ru chi mâquil k'axal yibru. Abanan li co'bêtac yumbêtac k'axal cui'chic yibru xban nak li ani namâcob chi toj mâji' sumsu, li jun a'an naxmux rib xjunes rib.

¹⁹Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which you have from God? You are not your own,

¹⁹¿Ma inc'a' nequenau nak lâex rochochex li Santil Musik'ej xban nak li Santil Musik'ej li quixq'ue êre li Dios cuan êriq'uin? Jo'can nak moco lâex ta nequetakla êrib êjunes. Lâex rehex chic li Dios.Lok'bilex chic chi terto êtz'ak. Jo'can nak tîcak lê yu'am ut chelok'oni li Dios xban nak rehex chic.

²⁰for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.

²⁰Lok'bilex chic chi terto êtz'ak. Jo'can nak tîcak lê yu'am ut chelok'oni li Dios xban nak rehex chic.
