¹If then you were raised together with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated on the right hand of God.

¹Chanchan nak xexcuacli cui'chic chi yo'yo êrochben li Cristo nak xexpâban. Ac' chic lê yu'am. Jo'can nak q'uehomak êch'ôl chixbânunquil li châbil na'leb ut chexc'oxlak chirix li cuan sa' choxa bar cuan cui' li Cristo c'ojc'o sa' xnim uk' li Dios xban nak k'axal nim xcuanquil.

²Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are on the earth.

²Junelic chec'oxla li Dios ut mêc'oxla chic lix mâusilal li ruchich'och'.

³For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

³Lix mâusilal li ruchich'och' mâc'a' chic xcuanquil sa' êbên. Chanchan camenakex chiru. Ac colbilex chic chiru li mâusilal xban nak junajex chic riq'uin li Cristo, ut li Cristo junaj riq'uin li Dios.

⁴When Christ, our life, is revealed, then you will also be revealed with him in glory.

⁴Ca'aj cui' riq'uin li Jesucristo cuan kayu'am. Ut nak tol-êlk cui'chic li Jesucristo tixc'utbesi nak lâo li ralal xc'ajol, ut totz'akônk riq'uin lix lok'al.

⁵Put to death therefore your members which are on the earth: sexual immorality, uncleanness, depraved passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry;

⁵Xban nak ac' chic lê yu'am, canabomak chi junaj cua xrahinquil ru li inc'a' us jo' li co'bêtac yumbêtac, ut li mâus aj na'leb. Ut canabomak xrahinquil ru li mâusilal. Ut mêrahi ru li biomal xban nak li xrahinquil ru li biomal, a'an chanchan ajcui' xlok'oninquil li jalanil dios.

⁶for which things’ sake the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience.

⁶Riq'uin xbânunquil li mâusilal a'in nachal xjosk'il li Dios ut naxteneb li tojba mâc sa' xbêneb li neque'k'etoc re li râtin.

⁷You also once walked in those, when you lived in them;

⁷Jo'can ajcui' quebânu chak lâex junxil nak toj cuanquex chak sa' li mâc.

⁸but now you also put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and shameful speaking out of your mouth.

⁸Aban anakcuan mêbânu chic chixjunil li c'a' re ru a'in: mexjosk'o', mêpo' êrib chi ribil êrib, mêbânu li mâusilal, mexk'aban, ut mex-âtinac sa' yibru âtin.

⁹Don’t lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old man with his doings,

⁹Mextic'ti'ic. Mêbânu chic chixjunil li mâusilal a'in xban nak chixjunil li c'a'ak re ru quebânu chak najter ac xerisi sa' lê ch'ôl.

¹⁰Anakcuan ac' chic lê yu'am. Li Dios, a'an li quijaloc re lê yu'am ut a'an tâtenk'ânk êre cuulaj cuulaj chixtzolbal êrib riq'uin re nak têtau ru chi tz'akal chanru li Dios ut têbânu li naraj a'an.

¹¹where there can’t be Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, bondservant, freeman; but Christ is all, and in all.

¹¹Lâo aj pâbanel juntak'êto chiru li Dios xban nak junajo sa' li ac' yu'am. Moco jalaneb ta laj griego chiruheb laj judío. Moco jalaneb ta li tzolbileb chiruheb li inc'a' tzolbileb.

¹²Put on therefore, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, humility, and perseverance;

¹²Li Dios k'axal nequexra ut quixsic' êru chok' ralal xc'ajol. Jo'can nak chexcuânk sa' tîquilal. Chetok'oba ruheb lê ras êrîtz'in ut chetenk'aheb. Mêk'etk'eti êrib. Chexcuânk sa' tûlanil ut checuyak li raylal.

¹³bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, if any man has a complaint against any; even as Christ forgave you, so you also do.

¹³Checuyak êrib chiribil êrib. Ut cui cuan junak cuan xmâc chêru, checuyak xmâc. Jo' nak quixcuy êmâc li Kâcua', jo'can ajcui' chebânu lâex.

¹⁴Above all these things, walk in love, which is the bond of perfection.

¹⁵And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.

¹⁵Junajakex taxak sa' lê pâbâl xban nak sic'bil êru xban li Dios. Chicuânk li tuktûquilal sa' lê ch'ôl li naxq'ue li Cristo re nak texcuânk sa' xyâlal. Ut junelic chebantioxi chiru li Dios li usilal xbânu êre.

¹⁶Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your heart to the Lord.

¹⁶Li râtin li Cristo chicanâk sa' êch'ôl chi junelic re nak cuânk êna'leb. Chetzolak êrib chêribil êrib ut chetenk'a êrib chêribil êrib sa' lê pâbâl. Chexbichânk re xlok'oninquil li Dios. Chexbichânk jo' naxc'ut chêru li Santil Musik'ej ut junelic chexbantioxînk chiru li Dios.

¹⁷Whatever you do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father, through him.

¹⁷Ut chixjunil li c'a'ru têye ut têbânu, chebânuhak re xq'uebal xlok'al li Jesucristo. Ut junelic chexbantioxînk chiru li Acuabej Dios sa' xc'aba' li Kâcua' Jesucristo.

¹⁸Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.

¹⁸Ex ixakilbej, chepâbâk lê bêlom jo' êc'ulub xbânunquil xban nak lâex chic aj pâbanel.

¹⁹Husbands, love your wives, and don’t be bitter against them.

¹⁹Ut lâex bêlomej, cherahak lê rixakil ut mexjosk'o' riq'uineb.

²⁰Children, obey your parents in all things, for this pleases the Lord.

²⁰Ut jo'can ajcui' lâex alalbej, junelic chexpâbânk chiruheb lê na' êyucua' xban nak a'an li nacuulac chiru li Kâcua' Dios.

²¹Ex yucua'bej, mêch'ila lê ralal êc'ajol chi mâc'a' rajbal re nak inc'a' tâch'inânk xch'ôleb.

²²Servants, obey in all things those who are your masters according to the flesh, not just when they are looking, as men pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing God.

²²Ex aj c'anjel, junelic chexpâbânk chiruheb lê patrón. Chanru nak nequexc'anjelac nak yô chêrilbal lê patrón, jo'can ajcui' texc'anjelak nak inc'a' yô chêrilbal. Mexc'anjelac re xnimobresinquil êrib. Chexc'anjelak ban chi anchal lê ch'ôl xban nak lâex nequera li Kâcua' Dios.

²³And whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men,
