1Let brotherly love continue.
1Mêcanab xrâbal êrib chêribil êrib xban nak junajex sa' lê pâbâl.
2Don’t forget to show hospitality to strangers, for in doing so, some have entertained angels without knowing it.
2Mêk'etk'eti êrib chixc'ulbal lê rula'. Chec'uleb ban sa' usilal. Cuanqueb li que'xc'ul li rula'eb, abanan inc'a' neque'xnau nak ángel li que'cuulac chi ula'anînc reheb.
3Remember those who are in bonds, as bound with them; and those who are ill-treated, since you are also in the body.
3Cherilak xtok'obâl ruheb li cuanqueb sa' tz'alam. Cherec'âk sa' lê râm nak chanchan ajcui' lâex li cuanquex sa' tz'alam. Chinak ajcui' sa' êch'ôl li neque'hobe' ut li neque'rahobtesîc. Chanchan nak lâex ajcui' yôquex chi c'uluc re li raylal a'an.
4Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled: but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers.
4Us li sumlâc aban tento che-oxlok'i lê sumlajic. Mâc'a' c'a'ru chebalak'i cui' êrib. Li Dios târakok âtin sa' xbêneb li neque'xmux ru lix sumlajiqueb, jo' ajcui' sa' xbêneb laj co'bêt laj yumbêt.
5Be free from the love of money, content with such things as you have, for he has said, “I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you.” Deuteronomy 31:6
5Mêra ru li tumin. Chec'ojobak ban êch'ôl riq'uin li jo' q'uial cuan êre xban nak li Dios quixye: Junelic tatintenk'a, ut mâ jok'e tatincanab âjunes. (Deut. 31:6)
6So that with good courage we say, “The Lord is my helper. I will not fear. What can man do to me?” Psalm 118:6-7
6Jo'can nak naru takaye chi anchal kach'ôl: Li Kâcua' Dios natenk'an cue. Inc'a' ninxucua li c'a'ru te'xbânu li xic' neque'iloc cue. (Sal. 118:6)
7Remember your leaders, men who spoke to you the word of God, and considering the results of their conduct, imitate their faith.
7Chijulticok' êre eb li que'c'amoc be chêru. A'an que'xch'olob xyâlal li râtin li Dios. Cheq'uehak retal lix pâbâl ut lix yu'ameb nak que'cuan sa' ruchich'och'. Jo'can ajcui' chebânuhak lâex.
8Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
8Li Jesucristo inc'a' najala chi moco najala lix na'leb. Ac a'an ajcui' chak chalen najter k'e cutan, a'an anakcuan ut a'anak chi junelic.
9Don’t be carried away by various and strange teachings, for it is good that the heart be established by grace, not by food, through which those who were so occupied were not benefited.
9Mêq'ue êrib chi balak'îc xbaneb laj balak', xban nak jalan jalânk li tijleb neque'xye. Mâcua' li c'a'ru nakatzaca li najaloc re li kayu'am. A' ban li rusilal li Dios najaloc re ut naxq'ue xcacuil kach'ôl.
10We have an altar from which those who serve the holy tabernacle have no right to eat.
10Lâo cuan jun ka-artal. A'an nak quixmayeja rib li Kâcua' Jesucristo chiru li cruz. Eb laj tij inc'a' naru te'xtzaca li mayej a'an jo' que'xbânu chak najter sa' li tabernáculo nak que'xmayeja li xul. (Naraj naxye nak li colba-ib inc'a' natauman riq'uin xbânunquil li chak'rab. Natauman ban riq'uin xpâbanquil li Cristo.)
11For the bodies of those animals, whose blood is brought into the holy place by the high priest as an offering for sin, are burned outside of the camp. Leviticus 16:27
11Lix yucua'il aj tij sa' xyânkeb laj Israel naxc'am lix quiq'uel li xul sa' li Lok'laj Santil Na'ajej ut naxmayeja re risinquil li mâc. Aban lix tibel li xul naxc'at toj jun pac'al li tenamit.
12Therefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people through his own blood, suffered outside of the gate.
12Jo'can ajcui' li Jesucristo quic'ame' toj jun pac'al li tenamit ut aran quicam chiru li cruz. Ut riq'uin lix lok'laj quiq'uel li Jesucristo nocoxsantobresi.
13Let us therefore go out to him outside of the camp, bearing his reproach.
13Kacanabak li kanajter na'leb ut chikatâkehak li Jesucristo usta toj yôko chi c'uluc raylal sa' xc'aba' a'an.
14For we don’t have here an enduring city, but we seek that which is to come.
14Li ruchich'och' a'in mâcua' tz'akal kana'aj. Yôco ban chiroybeninquil jun chic li kana'aj k'axal châbil. A'an li choxa.
15Through him, then, let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God Psalm 50:23 continually, that is, the fruit of lips which proclaim allegiance to his name.
15Jo'can ut junelic chikalok'onihak li Dios sa' xc'aba' li Jesucristo, ut chikanimâk ru. Cui takabânu chi jo'can, a'an li kamayej chiru li Dios.
16But don’t forget to be doing good and sharing, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.
16Misach sa' êch'ôl xbânunquil li usilal ut xtenk'anquil êrib chêribil êrib xban nak a'an jun li mayej nacuulac chiru li Dios.
17Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they watch on behalf of your souls, as those who will give account, that they may do this with joy, and not with groaning, for that would be unprofitable for you.
17Chex-abînk chiruheb laj c'amol be chêru, ut chebânuhak li c'a'ru neque'xye êre xban nak eb a'an neque'tenk'an êre sa' lê pâbâl. A'aneb li te'xk'axtesi xcuênt chêrix chiru li Dios. Chetenk'aheb re nak sahakeb sa' xch'ôl sa' lix c'anjeleb xban nak cui rahakeb sa' xch'ôl, rahak ajcui' chok' êre lâex.
18Pray for us, for we are persuaded that we have a good conscience, desiring to live honorably in all things.
18Ex hermân, tintz'âma chêru nak chextijok chikix lâo. Nakec'a nak tîc kach'ôl ut nakaj nak junelic cuânko sa' tîquilal.
19I strongly urge you to do this, that I may be restored to you sooner.
19Ut nintz'âma ajcui' chêru nak chextijok chicuix. A' taxak li Dios chitenk'ânk cue re nak târûk tinxic cui'chic chi junpât chêrilbal.
20Now may the God of peace, who brought again from the dead the great shepherd of the sheep with the blood of an eternal covenant, our Lord Jesus,
20A' li Kâcua' Dios a'an laj q'uehol tuktûquil usilal, li Dios li quicuaclesin cui'chic re chi yo'yo li Jesucristo sa' xyânkeb li camenak. Riq'uin lix lok'laj quiq'uel li Jesucristo xakabanbil xcuanquil li ac' contrato chi junelic. Li Jesucristo na-iloc ke jo' junak cuînk narileb lix carner.
21make you complete in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
21Chicuânk taxak li rusilal li Dios êriq'uin re nak têbânu li c'a'ru naraj. Chixbânuhak taxak li Dios li c'a'ru naraj êriq'uin sa' xc'aba' li Jesucristo. Lok'oninbil taxak li Jesucristo chi junelic k'e cutan. Jo'can taxak.
22But I exhort you, brothers, endure the word of exhortation, for I have written to you in few words.
22Ex hermân, nintz'âma jun usilal chêru. Checuyak rabinquil li cuâtin re xch'olobanquil êna'leb. Moco q'ui ta li âtin xintz'îba sa' li hu a'in.
23Know that our brother Timothy has been freed, with whom, if he comes shortly, I will see you.
23Nacuaj ajcui' xyebal êre nak li hermano Timoteo ac x-el sa' tz'alam. Cui nachal chi junpât arin, cuochbenak nak toxic chêrilbal.
24Greet all of your leaders and all the saints. The Italians greet you.
24Cheq'uehak xsahil xch'ôleb laj c'amol be chêru sa' lê pâbâl ut chixjunileb li kech aj pâbanelil. Eb laj pâbanel li cuanqueb arin Italia neque'xtakla xsahil êch'ôl.Li rusilal li Dios chicuânk êriq'uin. Jo'can taxak.
25Grace be with you all. Amen.
25Li rusilal li Dios chicuânk êriq'uin. Jo'can taxak.
