¹Now before the feast of the Passover, Jesus, knowing that his time had come that he would depart from this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.

¹Ac cuulajak naticla li nink'e Pascua. Li Jesús ac naxnau nak cuulac re xk'ehil lix camic re nak tâxic cui'chic riq'uin lix Yucua' sa' choxa. Junelic naxraheb li ralal xc'ajol li te'canâk sa' ruchich'och' ut nak ac câmc re quixc'utbesi chi tz'akal lix rahom chiruheb.

²During supper, the devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him,

²Li Jesús yô chi cua'ac rochbeneb lix tzolom. Laj tza ac xq'ue sa' xch'ôl laj Judas li ralal laj Simón Iscariote nak tixk'axtesi li Jesús sa' ruk'eb li xic' neque'iloc re.

³Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he came forth from God, and was going to God,

³Li Jesús naxnau nak q'uebil re lix cuanquil xban li Dios ut a'an yal re sa' xbên chixjunil. Naxnau nak riq'uin li Dios quichal chak ut riq'uin ajcui' li Dios tâxic.

⁴arose from supper, and laid aside his outer garments. He took a towel, and wrapped a towel around his waist.

⁴Nak yôqueb chi cua'ac, li Jesús quicuacli. Quirisi lix t'icr li cuan sa' xbên li rak'. Quixchap jun chic li t'icr ut quixbac' chi xsa'.

⁵Then he poured water into the basin, and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel that was wrapped around him.

⁵Quixq'ue li ha' sa' jun li emel ut qui-oc chixch'ajbal li rokeb lix tzolom. Ut quixmes li rokeb riq'uin li t'icr bac'bo chi xsa'.

⁶Then he came to Simon Peter. He said to him, “Lord, do you wash my feet?”

⁶Nak qui-oc raj chixch'ajbal li rok laj Simón Pedro, a'an quixye re: -Kâcua', ¿ma lâat tatch'ajok re li cuok lâin? chan.

⁷Jesus answered him, “You don’t know what I am doing now, but you will understand later.”

⁷Li Jesús quixye re: -Anakcuan inc'a' nacatau ru li c'a'ru yôquin chixbânunquil. Abanan mokon tâtau ru lix yâlal, chan li Jesús.

⁸Peter said to him, “You will never wash my feet!” Jesus answered him, “If I don’t wash you, you have no part with me.”

⁸Laj Pedro quixye re: -Kâcua', mâ jok'e tinq'ue li cuok re tâch'aj, chan. Li Jesús quixye re: -Cui lâat inc'a' tâq'ue lâ cuok re tinch'aj, lâat mâcua'at intzolom, chan.

⁹Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head!”

⁹Laj Simón Pedro quixye: -Kâcua', mâcua' ca'aj cui' li cuok tâch'aj. Tâch'aj aj ban cui' li cuuk' ut lin jolom, chan.

¹⁰Jesus said to him, “Someone who has bathed only needs to have his feet washed, but is completely clean. You are clean, but not all of you.”

¹⁰Li Jesús quixye reheb: -Li ani ac x-atin, ca'aj chic xch'ajbal li rok târaj, xban nak ac ch'ajbil. Ac sak chic ru. Jo'can ajcui' lâex. Lâex ac tîc êch'ôl xban nak ac xinêpâb. Abanan moco chêjunilex ta tîc êch'ôl. Cuan jun sa' êyânk inc'a' tîc xch'ôl, chan.

¹¹For he knew him who would betray him, therefore he said, “You are not all clean.”

¹¹Li Jesús ac naxnau ani li tâk'axtesînk re sa' ruk'eb li xic' neque'iloc re. Jo'can nak quixye nak cuan jun sa' xyânkeb inc'a' tîc xch'ôl.

¹²So when he had washed their feet, put his outer garment back on, and sat down again, he said to them, “Do you know what I have done to you?

¹²Nak ac xrake' xch'ajbal li rokeb, quixq'ue cui'chic li rak' chirix. Quic'ojla cui'chic sa' li mêx. Ut quixye reheb lix tzolom: -¿Ma nequenau c'a'ru xyâlal nak xinch'aj lê rok? chan reheb.

¹³ You call me, ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord.’ You say so correctly, for so I am.

¹³-Lâex nequeye aj tzolonel cue ut nequeye ajcui' Kâcua' cue. Us nak nequeye chi jo'can xban nak yâl ajcui' nak lâin li Kâcua' ut lâin aj tzolol êre.

¹⁴ If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.

¹⁴Lâin li Kâcua' ut lâin laj tzolol êre. Abanan xinch'aj lê rok. Jo'can ajcui' têbânu lâex. Têch'aj lê rok chêribil êrib.

¹⁵ For I have given you an example, that you also should do as I have done to you.

¹⁵Lâin xinc'ut chêru chanru têbânu. Jo'can nak chebânu jo' xinbânu lâin.

¹⁶ Most certainly I tell you, a servant is not greater than his lord, neither one who is sent greater than he who sent him.

¹⁶Relic chi yâl ninye êre nak mâ jun môs tixk'ax ta ru xcuanquil lix patrón ut li ani nataklâc inc'a' naxk'ax ru lix cuanquil li quitaklan chak re.

¹⁷ If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them.

¹⁷Ac nequenau chic xyâlal. Us xak êre cui lâex têbânu li c'a'ru xetzol cuiq'uin.

¹⁸ I don’t speak concerning all of you. I know whom I have chosen. But that the Scripture may be fulfilled, ‘He who eats bread with me has lifted up his heel against me.’ Psalm 41:9

¹⁸Inc'a' yôquin chi âtinac chêrix chêjunilex. Lâin ninnau chanru lê na'leb xban nak lâin xinsic'oc êru. Abanan tento nak tâtz'aklok ru li tz'îbanbil sa' li Santil Hu li naxye chi jo'ca'in: Li jun li nacua'ac cuochben, a'an li tâtz'ektânânk cue.

¹⁹ From now on, I tell you before it happens, that when it happens, you may believe that I am he.

¹⁹Lâin ninye êre a'in anakcuan nak toj mâji' nac'ulman. Ut nak tâc'ulmânk, lâex tênau nak yâl li xinye nak lâin li Cristo li taklanbil chak xban li Dios.

²⁰ Most certainly I tell you, he who receives whomever I send, receives me; and he who receives me, receives him who sent me.”

²⁰Relic chi yâl tinye êre nak ani tâc'uluk re li ani tintakla, tinixc'ul ajcui' lâin. Ut li ani tâc'uluk cue lâin, tixc'ul ajcui' li quitaklan chak cue, chan li Jesús reheb.

²¹When Jesus had said this, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, “Most certainly I tell you that one of you will betray me.”

²¹Nak ac xye chixjunil li c'a'ak re ru a'in, li Jesús quiyot'e' xch'ôl. Ut quixye chi tz'akal reheb: -Relic chi yâl ninye êre nak jun sa' êyânk lâex tâk'axtesînk cue sa' ruk'eb li xic' neque'iloc cue, chan.

²²The disciples looked at one another, perplexed about whom he spoke.

²²Ut eb lix tzolom que'oc xc'a'uxeb. Que'xca'ya ribeb chi ribileb rib ut que'xye: -¿Ani anchal naxyehan? chanqueb.

²³One of his disciples, whom Jesus loved, was at the table, leaning against Jesus’ breast.

²³Jun reheb lix tzolom, li raro xban, c'ojc'o chixc'atk.

²⁴Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, and said to him, “Tell us who it is of whom he speaks.”

²⁴Laj Simón Pedro quixc'ut li ruk' chiru ut quixye re nak tixpatz' re li Jesús ani li yô chixyebal.

²⁵He, leaning back, as he was, on Jesus’ breast, asked him, “Lord, who is it?”

²⁵Ut li jun, li c'ojc'o chixc'atk li Jesús, quijiloc riq'uin ut quixpatz' re: -Kâcua', ¿ani li yôcat chixyebal? chan.

²⁶Jesus therefore answered, “It is he to whom I will give this piece of bread when I have dipped it.” So when he had dipped the piece of bread, he gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.

²⁶Li Jesús quixye re: -Li ani tinq'ue cui' li caxlan cua a'in nak acak xintz'a sa' li sec', a'an li cuînk li tâk'axtesînk cue sa' ruk'eb li xic' neque'iloc cue, chan. Ut li Jesús quixtz'a li caxlan cua sa' li sec' ut quixq'ue re laj Judas li ralal laj Simón Iscariote.

²⁷After the piece of bread, then Satan entered into him. Then Jesus said to him, “What you do, do quickly.”

²⁷Ut laj Judas quixc'ul li caxlan cua ut sa' ajcui' li hônal a'an quixk'axtesi rib chixbânunquil li c'a'ru naraj laj tza. Ut li Jesús quixye re: -Li c'a'ru yôcat chixc'oxlanquil xbânunquil, bânu chi junpât, chan.

²⁸Now no man at the table knew why he said this to him.

²⁸Mâ jun reheb li cuanqueb sa' li mêx que'xtau ru li quixye li Jesús.

²⁹For some thought, because Judas had the money box, that Jesus said to him, “Buy what things we need for the feast,” or that he should give something to the poor.

²⁹Cuan li que'xc'oxla nak li Jesús târaj nak laj Judas tâxic chixlok'bal li c'a'ak re ru re li nink'e. Ut cuan ajcui' li que'xc'oxla nak târaj nak laj Judas tixq'ue ca'ch'inak li tumin reheb li neba' xban nak riq'uin laj Judas cuan lix bôlsil lix tumineb.

³⁰Therefore having received that morsel, he went out immediately. It was night.

³⁰Nak ac xc'ul li caxlan cua laj Judas, qui-el sa' junpât chirix cab. Ac k'ojyîn chic.

³¹When he had gone out, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man has been glorified, and God has been glorified in him.

³¹Nak laj Judas ac x-el sa' xyânkeb, li Jesús quixye: -Anakcuan xcuulac xk'ehil nak tâc'utbesîk lin lok'al lâin li C'ajolbej ut tâc'utûnk ajcui' lix lok'al li Dios riq'uin li c'a'ru tinc'ul lâin.

³² If God has been glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and he will glorify him immediately.

³²Cui lâin tinc'utbesi lix lok'al li Dios, a'an chi sêb ajcui' tixc'utbesi lin lok'al lâin li C'ajolbej.

³³ Little children, I will be with you a little while longer. You will seek me, and as I said to the Jews, ‘Where I am going, you can’t come,’ so now I tell you.

³³Ex cualal inc'ajol, inc'a' chic najt tincuânk êriq'uin. Lâex tinêsic' raj chic. Abanan lâin mâ anihakin chic. Ninye êre jo' quinye reheb laj judío li neque'taklan sa' êyânk. Bar tinxic lâin, lâex inc'a' texrûk chi xic.

³⁴ A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, just like I have loved you; that you also love one another.

³⁴Jun li ac' chak'rab tinq'ue êre anakcuan nak cherahak êrib chêribil êrib. Jo' nak nequexinra lâin, jo'can ajcui' nak têra êrib lâex chêribil êrib.

³⁵ By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

³⁵Cui têra êrib chêribil êrib, chixjunileb te'xnau nak lâex intzolom, chan li Jesús.

³⁶Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus answered, “Where I am going, you can’t follow now, but you will follow afterwards.”

³⁶Laj Simón Pedro quixpatz' re: -At tzolonel, ¿bar xic âcue?- Li Jesús quixye re: -Anakcuan inc'a' naru texxic chicuix bar tinxic cui' lâin. Abanan mokon naru texxic li bar xic cui' cue, chan.

³⁷Peter said to him, “Lord, why can’t I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you.”

³⁷Laj Pedro quixye cui'chic re: -Kâcua', ¿c'a'ut nak inc'a' târûk tinxic châcuix anakcuan? Lâin tatintâke usta tincamsîk xban âtâkenquil, chan.Li Jesús quixye re: -¿Ma yâl nak tinâtâke usta tatcamsîk sa' inc'aba'? Relic chi yâl ninye âcue nak toj mâji' ajcui' nayâbac laj tzo' xul nak lâat ac xaye oxib sut nak inc'a' nacanau cuu, chan li Jesús.

³⁸Jesus answered him, “Will you lay down your life for me? Most certainly I tell you, the rooster won’t crow until you have denied me three times.

³⁸Li Jesús quixye re: -¿Ma yâl nak tinâtâke usta tatcamsîk sa' inc'aba'? Relic chi yâl ninye âcue nak toj mâji' ajcui' nayâbac laj tzo' xul nak lâat ac xaye oxib sut nak inc'a' nacanau cuu, chan li Jesús.
