¹But the Spirit says expressly that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to seducing spirits and doctrines of demons,

¹Li Santil Musik'ej naxc'ut lix yâlal chi tz'akal nak sa' eb li cutan châlel cuan li te'xcanab xpâbanquil li tijleb li tz'akal yâl. Ut te'balak'îk xban li tijleb li inc'a' yâl li neque'xq'ue li mâus aj musik'ej.

²through the hypocrisy of men who speak lies, branded in their own conscience as with a hot iron;

²Tic'ti' li neque'xc'ut eb laj balak'. Inc'a' chic neque'rec'a nak inc'a' us yôqueb. Chanchan nak c'atbil riq'uin ch'îch' lix c'a'uxeb xban li tic'ti' li neque'xye. Jo'can nak inc'a' neque'xq'ue retal nak inc'a' us yôqueb chixbânunquil.

³forbidding marriage and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.

³Eb a'an neque'xye nak inc'a' us li sumlâc ut neque'xye ajcui' nak cuan li tzacaêmk inc'a' us xtzacanquil. Abanan moco yâl ta li neque'xye. Li Dios quiq'uehoc re li tzacaêmk a'in re nak tâtzacâk. Ut lâo aj pâbanel li nakanau lix yâlal, nakatzaca ut nakabantioxi chiru li Dios nak quixq'ue ke li katzacaêmk.

⁴For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be rejected, if it is received with thanksgiving.

⁴Chixjunil li quixyo'obtesi li Dios, a'an châbil. Mâc'a' xtz'ektânanquil. Nakabantioxi chiru li Dios ut nakatzaca.

⁵For it is sanctified through the word of God and prayer.

⁵Mâc'a' xtz'ektânanquil xban nak li Dios quixye nak us xtzacanquil ut xban nak nocotijoc sa' xbên. Jo'can nak osobtesinbil chic xban.

⁶If you instruct the brothers of these things, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, nourished in the words of the faith, and of the good doctrine which you have followed.

⁶At Timoteo, cui nacach'olob xyâlal li tijleb a'in chiruheb laj pâbanel, lâakat jun châbil aj c'anjel chiru li Jesucristo. Ut lâat yôkat chi q'uîc sa' lâ pâbâl riq'uin lix yâlal ut riq'uin li châbil tijleb li yôcat chixpâbanquil.

⁷But refuse profane and old wives’ fables. Exercise yourself toward godliness.

⁷Chatz'ektâna chi jun aj cua chixjunil li najter serak' li yal tôntil na'leb naxye, li mâc'a' na-oc cui'. Ut q'ue âch'ôl chixbânunquil li c'a'ru naraj li Dios.

⁸For bodily exercise has some value, but godliness has value in all things, having the promise of the life which is now, and of that which is to come.

⁸Nayeman nak us nak takatzol kib chixch'olaninquil kib re nak cauhako. Abanan li k'axal cui'chic lok' a'an xtzolbal kib re nak cauhak kach'ôl sa' li kapâbâl xban nak riq'uin li kapâbâl cuan li rusilal li Dios kiq'uin anakcuan arin sa' ruchich'och' ut cuânk ajcui' li kayu'am chi junelic.

⁹This saying is faithful and worthy of all acceptance.

⁹Relic chi yâl nak a'an li tz'akal xyâlal li yôquin chixyebal, ut chixjunileb taxak te'pâbânk re.

¹⁰For to this end we both labor and suffer reproach, because we have set our trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe.

¹⁰Xban nak li yo'yôquil Dios, a'an li kayo'on, jo'can nak yôco xyalbal kak'e chi c'anjelac chiru. A'an naxyechi'i li colba-ib reheb chixjunileb. Abanan, ca'aj cui' li ani te'pâbânk re, a'aneb li te'colek'.

¹¹Command and teach these things.

¹¹A'an a'in li tijleb li tâc'ut chiruheb lâ cuech aj pâbanelil. Tâch'olob lix yâlal chiruheb.

¹²Let no man despise your youth; but be an example to those who believe, in word, in your way of life, in love, in spirit, in faith, and in purity.

¹²Ut lâat, at Timoteo, chatcuânk sa' xyâlal ut chat-âtinak sa' xyâlal. Charaheb lâ cuas âcuîtz'in. Cauhak taxak âch'ôl sa' lâ pâbâl ut tîcak taxak lâ yu'am. Jo'can taxak tâbânu re nak mâ ani chitz'ektânânk âcue xban lâ sâjilal. Che'xtzol ban ribeb âcuiq'uin xban nak yôkat chixc'ambaleb xbe sa' tîquilal.

¹³Until I come, pay attention to reading, to exhortation, and to teaching.

¹³Roybeninquil tincuulak êriq'uin, q'ue âch'ôl chi rilbal xsa' li Santil Hu chiruheb laj pâbanel. Q'ueheb xna'leb ut tâch'olob xyâlal chiruheb.

¹⁴Don’t neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the elders.

¹⁴Chaq'ue taxak âch'ôl chi c'anjelac jo' quiq'uehe' âcue xban li Dios. Li c'anjel a'in q'uebil âcue nak eb li profeta que'âtinac châcuix ut nak eb laj c'amol be sa' xyânkeb laj pâbanel que'xq'ue li ruk'eb sa' âbên.

¹⁵Be diligent in these things. Give yourself wholly to them, that your progress may be revealed to all.

¹⁵Q'ue âch'ôl chixbânunquil chixjunil li xinye âcue re nak chixjunileb te'xq'ue retal nak tîc lâ yu'am ut te'xq'ue ajcui' retal nak us yô chi êlc li c'anjel yôcat chixbânunquil.Q'ue retal chi us li c'a'ru tâbânu jo' ajcui' li c'a'ru tâtzoleb cui'. Cui tâbânu chi jo'can, tatcolek' lâat ut te'colek' ajcui' li ani te'abînk re li c'a'ru tâye.

¹⁶Pay attention to yourself, and to your teaching. Continue in these things, for in doing this you will save both yourself and those who hear you.

¹⁶Q'ue retal chi us li c'a'ru tâbânu jo' ajcui' li c'a'ru tâtzoleb cui'. Cui tâbânu chi jo'can, tatcolek' lâat ut te'colek' ajcui' li ani te'abînk re li c'a'ru tâye.
