¹There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. NU omits “who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit”

¹Anakcuan ut mâc'a' chic li tojba mâc sa' xbêneb li neque'pâban re li Cristo, li inc'a' chic neque'xbânu li neque'xrahi ru lix ch'ôleb. Neque'xbânu ban li naraj li Santil Musik'ej.

²For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death.

²Lix cuanquil li Santil Musik'ej li naq'uehoc yu'am sa' xc'aba' li Jesucristo, a'an nacoloc cue chiru lix cuanquil li mâc ut li câmc.

³For what the law couldn’t do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God did, sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh;

³Li najter chak'rab inc'a' naru toxcol chiru li mâc ut li câmc. Mâc'a' xcuanquil re kacolbal xban nak inc'a' nocoru chixbânunquil li naxye. Inc'a' nocoru chixbânunquil li naxye xban nak chalen chak sa' kayo'lajic lâo aj mâc. Aban li Dios xoxcol chiru li mâc. Quixtakla chak li Jesucristo li Ralal chi tz'ejcualoc' sa' ruchich'och'. Li Kâcua' Jesucristo quixmayeja rib re xsachbal xcuanquil li mâc.

⁴that the ordinance of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

⁴Li Cristo quixsach xcuanquil li mâc re nak naru takabânu li tîquilal jo' naxye sa' li chak'rab. Inc'a' chic takabânu li naxrahi ru li kach'ôl. Anakcuan takabânu li c'a'ru naxye li Santil Musik'ej.

⁵For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

⁵Ut eb li toj neque'xbânu li najter na'leb, ca'aj cui' li c'a'ru naxrahi ru lix ch'ôleb neque'xc'oxla xbânunquil. Abanan eb li neque'cuan jo' naxye li Santil Musik'ej, eb a'an neque'xq'ue xch'ôl chixbânunquil li c'a'ru naraj li Santil Musik'ej.

⁶For the mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace;

⁶Cui ca'aj cui' li naxrahi ru li kach'ôl nakac'oxla, a'an naxc'am chak li câmc sa' kabên. Cui nakaq'ue kach'ôl chixbânunquil li naraj li Santil Musik'ej, a'an naxq'ue ke li kayu'am chi junelic ut naxq'ue ajcui' ke li tuktûquil usilal.

⁷because the mind of the flesh is hostile towards God; for it is not subject to God’s law, neither indeed can it be.

⁷Li toj yôqueb chixbânunquil li naxrahi ru lix ch'ôleb, cuanqueb sa' xîq'uilal riq'uin li Dios ut inc'a' neque'raj xcubsinquil rib rubel xcuanquil lix chak'rab li Dios chi moco neque'ru chixbânunquil.

⁸Those who are in the flesh can’t please God.

⁸Jo'can nak li toj neque'xbânu li naxrahi ru lix ch'ôleb, inc'a' nasaho' xch'ôl li Dios riq'uin li neque'xbânu.

⁹But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if it is so that the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if any man doesn’t have the Spirit of Christ, he is not his.

⁹Abanan lâex inc'a' chic yôquex chixbânunquil li naxrahi ru lê ch'ôl. Yôquex ban chixbânunquil li c'a'ru naraj li Santil Musik'ej cui yâl nak cuan li Santil Musik'ej êriq'uin. Li ani mâc'a' li Santil Musik'ej riq'uin, a'an mâcua' re li Cristo.

¹⁰If Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the spirit is alive because of righteousness.

¹⁰Cui li Cristo cuan êriq'uin, usta ac tenebanbil li câmc sa' êbên xban li mâc, yo'yo lê musik' xban nak tîcobresinbil chic lê ch'ôl xban li Dios.

¹¹But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.

¹¹Li Santil Musik'ej, a'an li quicuaclesin cui'chic re chi yo'yo li Cristo sa' xyânkeb li camenak. Cui li Santil Musik'ej quicuaclesin re li Cristo, a'an ajcui' tâcuaclesînk re lê tz'ejcual chi yo'yo re li junelic yu'am xban nak li Santil Musik'ej cuan êriq'uin.

¹²So then, brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.

¹²Jo'can ut ex inhermân, tento nak têbânu li naraj li Santil Musik'ej ut mâcua' li c'a'ru naxrahi ru lê ch'ôl.

¹³For if you live after the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

¹³Cui toj yôquex chixbânunquil li naxrahi ru lê ch'ôl, texcâmk. Aban cui riq'uin êtenk'anquil xban li Santil Musik'ej, têcanab xbânunquil lê yehom êbânuhom li quilajêbânu chak junxil, tâcuânk êyu'am chi junelic.

¹⁴For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are children of God.

¹⁴Chixjunileb li neque'bânun re li c'a'ru naraj li Santil Musik'ej, a'aneb tz'akal ralal xc'ajol li Dios.

¹⁵For you didn’t receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry, “Abba Abba is an Aramaic word for father or daddy, often used affectionately and respectfully in prayer to our Father in heaven. ! Father!”

¹⁵Lâex xec'ul li Santil Musik'ej ut mâc'a' chic êxiu. Moco jo'quex ta junak li môs naxxucua ru lix patrón. Xban nak li Santil Musik'ej cuan kiq'uin, lâo ban tz'akal ralal xc'ajol li Dios. Jo'can nak nakaye "at inYucua'" re nak nocotijoc.

¹⁶The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God;

¹⁶Li Santil Musik'ej naxch'olob xyâlal chiku, ut nakec'a sa' li kâm nak lâo chic ralal xc'ajol li Dios.

¹⁷and if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint heirs with Christ; if indeed we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him.

¹⁷Ut xban nak lâo ralal xc'ajol li Dios, kochben li Cristo nak takêchani chixjunil li quixyechi'i ke li Dios. Cui totz'akônk riq'uin li raylal li quixc'ul li Cristo, jo'can nak toxotz'akônk ajcui' kochben sa' lix nimal xlok'al.

¹⁸For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which will be revealed toward us.

¹⁸Lâin ninye nak li raylal yôco chixc'ulbal anakcuan inc'a' takaq'ue sa' kach'ôl xban nak moco juntak'êt ta riq'uin li usilal takac'ul mokon xban nak numtajenak cui'chic lix nimal xlok'al li rusilal li Dios tixq'ue ke.

¹⁹For the creation waits with eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed.

¹⁹Chixjunil li c'a' re ru yîbanbil xban li Dios yôqueb chi xyo'oninquil nak tâcuulak xk'ehil nak li Dios tixq'ue xlok'aleb li ralal xc'ajol.

²⁰For the creation was subjected to vanity, not of its own will, but because of him who subjected it, in hope

²⁰Li ruchich'och' tz'ektânanbil xban li Dios. Moco yal quiraj ta nak quitz'ektânâc. Xban nak ac jo'can chak sa' xch'ôl li Dios. Abanan li ruchich'och' toj yô chixyo'oninquil nak tâcolek'.

²¹that the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of decay into the liberty of the glory of the children of God.

²¹Jo'can nak li ruchich'och' tâcolek' chiru li tz'ektânâc. Ut xban xnimal rusilal li Dios, tâcolek' li ruchich'och', jo' nak te'colek' li ralal xc'ajol li Dios.

²²For we know that the whole creation groans and travails in pain together until now.

²²Nakanau nak li ruchich'och' chalen anakcuan cuan sa' raylal ut yô chiroybeninquil nak tâusâk. Li ruchich'och', a'an jo' jun li ixk yô chixc'ulbal li raylal nak ac q'uirâc re.

²³Not only so, but ourselves also, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for adoption, the redemption of our body.

²³Mâcua' ca'aj cui' li ruchich'och' naxc'ul li raylal. Nayot'e' ajcui' li kach'ôl lâo aj pâbanel xban li raylal nakac'ul, usta ac xkac'ul li Santil Musik'ej. Li Santil Musik'ej a'an xbên li kamâtan naxq'ue ke li Dios. Yôco chiroybeninquil nak li Dios toxc'ul jo' tz'akal ralal xc'ajol ut tâjalâk li katz'ejcual ut tixq'ue li kalok'al.

²⁴For we were saved in hope, but hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for that which he sees?

²⁴Xban nak nocopâban, colbilo. Aban cuan ajcui' li mâtan toj mâji' nakac'ul ut a'an li toj yôco chiroybeninquil. Cui ta ac xkac'ul chixjunil, inc'a' raj chic yôco chi oybenînc.

²⁵But if we hope for that which we don’t see, we wait for it with patience.

²⁵Aban li c'a'ru nakoybeni inc'a' nakil ru ut tento takacuy roybeninquil.

²⁶In the same way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don’t know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which can’t be uttered.

²⁶Ut li Santil Musik'ej nocoxtenk'a xban nak mâc'a' naru nakabânu kajunes. Inc'a' nakanau chanru nak totijok chi moco nakanau c'a'ru takatz'âma. Aban li Santil Musik'ej natz'âman chikix chiru li Dios riq'uin yot'ba ch'ôlej inc'a' naru xyebal yal riq'uin âtin.

²⁷He who searches the hearts knows what is on the Spirit’s mind, because he makes intercession for the saints according to God.

²⁷Li Dios naxnau c'a'ru cuan sa' kach'ôl ut naxnau ajcui' lix c'a'ux li Santil Musik'ej. Ut li Santil Musik'ej natz'âman chikix lâo aj pâbanel jo' naraj li Dios.

²⁸We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose.

²⁸Li Dios naxsuk'isi chok' usilal chixjunil li c'a'ak re ru neque'xc'ul li neque'rahoc re li Dios, a' li bokbileb chixbânunquil li c'a'ru naraj li Dios.

²⁹For whom he foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. The word for “brothers” here and where context allows may also be correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.”

²⁹Chalen sa' xticlajic li Dios quixnau aniheb li te'pâbânk re. Jo'can nak quixsiq'ueb ru ut quixc'uleb chok' ralal xc'ajol. Quixxakab li Jesucristo li Ralal re nak a'anak li xbên alalbej sa' xyânkeb li ralal xc'ajol.

³⁰Whom he predestined, those he also called. Whom he called, those he also justified. Whom he justified, those he also glorified.

³⁰Najter chak k'e cutan li Dios ac cuan sa' xch'ôl ani li sic'bileb ru xban, ut li sic'bileb ru a'an li quixbokeb; ut li quixbokeb, quixtîcobresi lix ch'ôleb ut naxq'ueheb ajcui' xlok'al.

³¹What then shall we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

³¹¿C'a'ru takaye chirix a'in? Cui li Dios cuan kiq'uin, eb li xic' neque'iloc ke inc'a' te'numtâk sa' kabên.

³²He who didn’t spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how would he not also with him freely give us all things?

³²Usta li Acuabej Dios k'axal raro li Ralal xban, inc'a' quixcol chiru li câmc. Quixk'axtesi ban chi câmc sa' kac'aba' lâo. Cui quixq'ue li Ralal re câmc, ¿ma inc'a' ta bi' tixq'ue ke chixjunil li c'a'ak re ru quixyechi'i ke?

³³Who could bring a charge against God’s chosen ones? It is God who justifies.

³³¿Ani târûk tâyehok re nak cuanqueb xmâc li sic'bileb ru xban li Dios? Mâ ani, xban nak li sic'bileb ru tîcobresinbileb chic lix ch'ôl chiru li Dios.

³⁴Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, yes rather, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.

³⁴¿Ani târûk tâq'uehok reheb laj pâbanel sa' tojba mâc? Mâ ani xban nak li Jesucristo quicam sa' kac'aba' ut li Dios quixcuaclesi cui'chic chi yo'yo sa' xyânkeb li camenak. Anakcuan a'an cuan sa' xnim uk' li Dios ut yô chi âtinac chikix chiru li Dios.

³⁵Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Could oppression, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

³⁵¿C'a'ru târûk tâisînk ke riq'uin li Cristo li narahoc ke? Mâc'a'. Li ra xîc' inc'a' naru torisi, chi moco li raylal, chi moco li ch'a'ajquilal, chi moco li xîc' ilec', chi moco li cue'ej, chi moco li cuânc sa' neba'il, chi moco li camsîc. Mâc'a' naru tâisînk ke riq'uin li Cristo li narahoc ke.

³⁶Even as it is written, “For your sake we are killed all day long. We were accounted as sheep for the slaughter.” Psalm 44:22

³⁶Jo'ca'in tz'îbanbil sa' li Santil Hu: Cuulaj cuulaj yôqueb chixc'oxlanquil kacamsinquil sa' âc'aba'. Chiruheb a'an chanchano li carner li neque'c'ame' chi camsîc. (Sal. 44:22)

³⁷No, in all these things, we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.

³⁷Aban li Jesucristo nocoxra ut nocoxtenk'a chixcuybal ut chixnumsinquil chixjunil li raylal nakac'ul.

³⁸For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,

³⁸Ninnau chi tz'akal nak mâc'a' naru tâisînk ke riq'uin lix rahom li Dios. Li câmc inc'a' naru torisi riq'uin lix rahom chi moco li c'a'ak re ru nakac'ul sa' li kayu'am. Eb li ángel inc'a' naru toe'risi chi moco eb li cuanqueb xcuanquil sa' ruchich'och', chi moco lix cuanquil li c'a'ak re ru chi musik'ejil. Li c'a'ak re ru nakac'ul anakcuan inc'a' naru torisi riq'uin xrahom li Dios chi moco li c'a'ak re ru tâchâlk.Li c'a'ak re ru cuan takec', chi moco li c'a'ak re ru cuan tak'a sa' ruchich'och' inc'a' naru torisi riq'uin lix rahom li Dios. Chi yâl, mâc'a' naru tâisînk ke riq'uin lix rahom li Dios. Quixc'ut chiku nak nocoxra nak quixq'ue li Jesucristo chi câmc re kacolbal.

³⁹nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

³⁹Li c'a'ak re ru cuan takec', chi moco li c'a'ak re ru cuan tak'a sa' ruchich'och' inc'a' naru torisi riq'uin lix rahom li Dios. Chi yâl, mâc'a' naru tâisînk ke riq'uin lix rahom li Dios. Quixc'ut chiku nak nocoxra nak quixq'ue li Jesucristo chi câmc re kacolbal.
