¹Forasmuch then as Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind; for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin;

¹Li Cristo quixc'ul li raylal ut quirec'a tz'akal li raylal sa' kac'aba' lâo. Jo'can nak chikaq'ue ajcui' kach'ôl lâo chixcuybal li raylal. Julticak êre nak mâc'a' chic xcuanquil li mâc sa' xbêneb li neque'xcuy li raylal chi mâc'a' xmâqueb.

²that you no longer should live the rest of your time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but for the will of God.

²Ut jarub cutan chic toj yo'yôkex chebânuhak li c'a'ru naraj li Dios, ut inc'a' chic yôkex chixbânunquil li c'a'ru querahi chak ru junxil.

³For we have spent enough of our past time doing the desire of the Gentiles, and having walked in lewdness, lusts, drunken binges, orgies, carousings, and abominable idolatries.

³Tz'akal taxak li mâc li xebânu chak. Xebânu jo' neque'xbânu li inc'a' neque'pâban chiru li Dios. Junxil nasemsot lê ch'ôl riq'uin li jo' mâjo'il na'leb. Xebânu chak li calâc ut li nink'eîc. Xebânu chak li numcua'ac num uc'ac. Ut xebânu ajcui' li tz'ekbêtalil aj na'leb. Xutânal xebânu chak junxil nak xenima chak ruheb li yîbanbil Dios.

⁴They think it is strange that you don’t run with them into the same excess of riot, blaspheming:

⁴A'ut anakcuan eb li mâji' neque'pâban neque'sach xch'ôleb chêrilbal. Neque'xq'ue retal nak mâcua'ex chic jun sa' xyânkeb chixbânunquil li mâusilal. Ut xban a'an nequexhobe'.

⁵who will give account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead.

⁵Aban mokon eb laj hobonel tento nak te'xk'axtesi xcuênt chiru li Dios riq'uin li c'a'ru quilaje'xbânu chak. Li Dios, a'an li târakok âtin sa' xbêneb li yo'yôqueb jo' eb ajcui' li camenakeb.

⁶For to this end the Good News was preached even to the dead, that they might be judged indeed as men in the flesh, but live as to God in the spirit.

⁶A'an rajbal nak quich'olobâc xyâlal chiruheb li tenamit. Quirakman âtin chirixeb ut eb a'an que'cam jo' nak telaje'câmk chixjunileb li cristian. Chixjunileb li que'pâban chiru li Dios usta quilaje'cam, lix musik'eb yo'yôqueb jo' nak yo'yo li Dios.

⁷But the end of all things is near. Therefore be of sound mind, self-controlled, and sober in prayer.

⁷Li roso'jic li ruchich'och' tâsêbânk chak. Jo'can nak aj-ajak êru, ut cheq'uehak êch'ôl chi tijoc.

⁸And above all things be earnest in your love among yourselves, for love covers a multitude of sins.

⁸Li c'a'ru tento têbânu, a'an xrâbal êrib chêribil êrib ut chi anchal êch'ôl. Ut xban nak nequera êrib chêribil êrib, nequecuy ajcui' êmâc chêribil êrib.

⁹Be hospitable to one another without grumbling.

⁹Chexq'uehok ochochnâl chêribil êrib chi sa sa' êch'ôl.

¹⁰As each has received a gift, employ it in serving one another, as good managers of the grace of God in its various forms.

¹⁰Chikajunilo jalan jalânk li c'a'ru târûk takabânu. Ac kamâtan kamâtan q'uebil ke chikajûnkal xban li Dios. Tento nak takatenk'a li kas kîtz'in riq'uin li c'a'ru nocoru chixbânunquil re nak inc'a' tâcanâk chi mâc'a' rajbal li mâtan q'uebil ke xban li Dios.

¹¹If anyone speaks, let it be as it were the very words of God. If anyone serves, let it be as of the strength which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

¹¹Cui ani cuan xmâtan chi âtinac, chixyehak râtin li Dios. Cui ani naraj c'anjelac, chi c'anjelac a' yal chanru lix cacuilal q'uebil re xban li Dios. Riq'uin chixjunil li c'a'ak re ru tâuxmânk, nimanbilak taxak xc'aba' li Dios sa' xc'aba' li Jesucristo. A'an laj êchal re li nimajcual cuanquilal ut lok'oninbilak taxak chi junelic k'e cutan. Jo'can taxak.

¹²Beloved, don’t be astonished at the fiery trial which has come upon you, to test you, as though a strange thing happened to you.

¹²Ex inhermân, misach êch'ôl nak tâchâlk li ra xîc' sa' êbên. Chanchan li xam nak nachal sa' êbên re xyalbal rix lê pâbâl. Mêc'oxla nak ca'aj cui' lâex yôquex chi c'uluc re.

¹³But because you are partakers of Christ’s sufferings, rejoice; that at the revelation of his glory you also may rejoice with exceeding joy.

¹³Chi sahok' ban sa' êch'ôl nak yôquex chi c'uluc raylal jo' quixc'ul li Cristo xban nak yôquex chi tz'akônc riq'uin li raylal li quixc'ul a'an. Tâcuulak xk'ehil nak li Jesucristo tixc'utbesi lix nimal xlok'al ut lâex k'axal cui'chic tâsahok' sa' êch'ôl.

¹⁴If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed; because the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you. On their part he is blasphemed, but on your part he is glorified.

¹⁴Us xak êre cui texhobek' xban nak nequepâb li Cristo. A'an retalil nak lix Musik' li Dios cuan êriq'uin ut a'an li k'axal lok'. Relic chi yâl nak tz'ektânanbil li Dios xbaneb li neque'hoboc êre, abanan chêru lâex, k'axal lok' ut nim xcuanquil.

¹⁵For let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil doer, or a meddler in other men’s matters.

¹⁵Cheq'uehak retal: mexmâcob. Xutânal chok' êre nak têc'ul junak raylal xban elk'ac, malaj ut xban li camsînc, malaj ut xban li yo'obânc ch'a'ajquilal sa' xyânkeb lê ras êrîtz'in, malaj ut xban xbânunquil c'a'ak chic re ru inc'a' us.

¹⁶But if one of you suffers for being a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God in this matter.

¹⁶Cui ut nequec'ul raylal xban nak nequepâb li Cristo, a'an moco xutânal ta. Chenimâk ban xlok'al li Dios xban nak lâex chic ralal xc'ajol.

¹⁷For the time has come for judgment to begin with the household of God. If it begins first with us, what will happen to those who don’t obey the Good News of God?

¹⁷Cuulac re xk'ehil li rakoc âtin. Tâticlâk kiq'uin lâo, li ralal xc'ajol li Dios. Tento nak târakek' âtin sa' kabên lâo aj pâbanel. Ut târakek' ajcui' âtin sa' xbêneb li inc'a' neque'xpâb li Dios. Abanan k'axal numtajenak cui'chic li raylal te'xc'ul eb a'an.

¹⁸“If it is hard for the righteous to be saved, what will happen to the ungodly and the sinner?” Proverbs 11:31

¹⁸Jo'ca'in tz'îbanbil chak retalil sa' li Santil Hu: Cui li tîc xch'ôl elajic tâcolek', ¿ma toja' ta chic junak laj mâc inc'a' elajic tâcolek'? (Prov. 11:31)Lâex li yôquex chi xc'ulbal li raylal jo' naraj li Dios, cheq'uehak taxak êch'ôl chixbânunquil li châbilal. Chek'axtesihak êrib sa' ruk' li Dios. A'an li quiyo'obtesin ke ut mâ jok'e tâpaltok chiku.

¹⁹Therefore let them also who suffer according to the will of God in doing good entrust their souls to him, as to a faithful Creator.

¹⁹Lâex li yôquex chi xc'ulbal li raylal jo' naraj li Dios, cheq'uehak taxak êch'ôl chixbânunquil li châbilal. Chek'axtesihak êrib sa' ruk' li Dios. A'an li quiyo'obtesin ke ut mâ jok'e tâpaltok chiku.
