< Matthew 19 >

1 When Jesus had finished these words, he departed from Galilee and came into the borders of Judea beyond the Jordan.
Are xtoꞌtaj ri Jesús chubꞌixik ronojel we jastaq riꞌ, xel bꞌik pa ri Galilea, xeꞌ pa jun tinimit rech Judea, chꞌaqaꞌp che ri Jordán.
2 Great multitudes followed him, and he healed them there.
Sibꞌalaj e kꞌi winaq xeteriꞌ chirij, xuꞌkunaj konojel ri e yawabꞌibꞌ ri e kꞌo chilaꞌ.
3 Pharisees came to him, testing him and saying, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any reason?”
E jujun fariseos xeqet rukꞌ ri Jesús are kakaj kakikoj jun kꞌaꞌmabꞌal che, xkita che: ¿La yaꞌtal che jun achi kujach ri rixoqil rumal xapakux jastaq ri xkꞌulmatajik?
4 He answered, “Haven’t you read that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female,
Ri Jesús xubꞌij: ¿La man isikꞌim ri tzꞌibꞌatalik, pa ri majibꞌal re ronojel, ri Tikol kaj xuqujeꞌ ulew, xutik ri achi xuqujeꞌ ri ixoq?
5 and said, ‘For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall be joined to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh’?
Xuqujeꞌ xubꞌij: Rumal waꞌ ri achi kuꞌtzaq kan ri utat unan, keꞌ rukꞌ ri rixoqil rech kuꞌx xa jun winaq.
6 So that they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, don’t let man tear apart.”
Xaq jeriꞌ man e kebꞌ ta chik, xane xa e jun chik. Rumal cher ri xunukꞌ ri Dios, man kakwin ta ri achi kuꞌjacho.
7 They asked him, “Why then did Moses command us to give her a certificate of divorce and divorce her?”
Ri fariseos xkibꞌij che: ¿Jas kꞌu che ri Moisés pa ri taqanik ri xuya kanoq kubꞌij chi ri achi kakwinik kujach ribꞌ che ri rixoqil we kuya ri wuj che jawjeꞌ kubꞌij wi chi kakijach kibꞌ?
8 He said to them, “Moses, because of the hardness of your hearts, allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it has not been so.
Ri Jesús xubꞌij: Ri Moisés xuya bꞌe chiꞌwe kiꞌjach ri iwixoqilal rumal cher sibꞌalaj abꞌaj ri iwanimaꞌ, man je ta kꞌu riꞌ ubꞌanik pa ri majibꞌal loq rech ronojel.
9 I tell you that whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery; and he who marries her when she is divorced commits adultery.”
Kinbꞌij chiꞌwe, we kꞌo jun kujach ri rixoqil, man xa ta rumal xmakun chik rukꞌ jun achi, kꞌa te riꞌ kakꞌuliꞌ rukꞌ jun ixoq chik, kamakunik, rumal e kebꞌ chi riꞌ ri rixoqil.
10 His disciples said to him, “If this is the case of the man with his wife, it is not expedient to marry.”
Ri tijoxelabꞌ xkibꞌij: We jeriꞌ kakꞌulmataj chikixoꞌl ri achi rachiꞌl ri rixoqil, are katan riꞌ man kakꞌuliꞌ ta jun.
11 But he said to them, “Not all men can receive this saying, but those to whom it is given.
Ri Jesús xubꞌij: Man konojel taj kakikꞌamawaꞌj we jastaq riꞌ xane xwi ri winaq ri yaꞌtal chike kakikꞌamawaꞌj.
12 For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother’s womb, and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs who made themselves eunuchs for the Kingdom of Heaven’s sake. He who is able to receive it, let him receive it.”
Jeriꞌ rumal cher e kꞌo winaq eunuco, kech wi pa ri kikꞌojiꞌkal, e kꞌo chi nikꞌaj xa xbꞌan eunuco chike kumal ri achyabꞌ, e kꞌo chi nikꞌaj eunuco rumal cher aꞌreꞌ xkichaꞌ ri ajawarem rech chilaꞌ chikaj. Ri karaj kukꞌamawaꞌj we riꞌ chukꞌamawaꞌj.
13 Then little children were brought to him that he should lay his hands on them and pray; and the disciples rebuked them.
Ri winaq xeꞌkikꞌam bꞌik akꞌalabꞌ rukꞌ ri Jesús rech kuya ri uqꞌabꞌ xuqujeꞌ kubꞌan chꞌawem pa kiwiꞌ. Ri tijoxelabꞌ kꞌut xkichapleꞌj kiyajik ri e kꞌamowinaq bꞌik ri akꞌalabꞌ.
14 But Jesus said, “Allow the little children, and don’t forbid them to come to me; for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to ones like these.”
Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: Chiya bꞌe chike ri akꞌalabꞌ kepe wukꞌ, man kiꞌqꞌatej taj, rumal cher ri winaq ri je kenoꞌjin akꞌalabꞌ are ri ajawarem rech ri kaj.
15 He laid his hands on them, and departed from there.
Are xtoꞌtaj chuyaꞌik ri uqꞌabꞌ pa kiwiꞌ ri akꞌalabꞌ xel bꞌik chilaꞌ.
16 Behold, one came to him and said, “Good teacher, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
Kꞌa te riꞌ jun achi xqebꞌ rukꞌ ri Jesús xubꞌij che: Ajtij, ¿jas ri utzilal ri rajawaxik kinbꞌano rech kinok pa ri jun alik kꞌaslemal? (aiōnios g166)
17 He said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good but one, that is, God. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments.”
Ri Jesús xubꞌij che: ¿Jas che kata chwe jas riꞌ ri utzilal? Xa jun riꞌ ri utz. Chanimaj ri taqanik, we kawaj katok pa ri jun alik kꞌaslemal.
18 He said to him, “Which ones?” Jesus said, “‘You shall not murder.’ ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ ‘You shall not steal.’ ‘You shall not offer false testimony.’
Ri achi xuta che ri Jesús: ¿Jachin chike taq riꞌ ri taqanik ri kabꞌij la? Ri Jesús xubꞌij che: Man katkamisan taj, man kekꞌojiꞌ ta kebꞌ awixoqil, man katelaqꞌ taj, man kabꞌan ta bꞌanoj tzij chirij jun winaq chik.
19 ‘Honor your father and your mother.’ And, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’”
Nim chaꞌwila ri atat anan, xuqujeꞌ chaloqꞌaj ri ajil tzꞌaqat jacha ri kabꞌan chuloqꞌaxik awibꞌ at.
20 The young man said to him, “All these things I have observed from my youth. What do I still lack?”
Ri ala xubꞌij: Ronojel waꞌ we riꞌ nubꞌanom. ¿Jas chi jun kajawataj na?
21 Jesus said to him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.”
Ri Jesús xubꞌij che: We kawaj qas at tzꞌaqat, jat jaꞌkꞌayij kanoq ronojel ri kꞌo awukꞌ, kꞌa te riꞌ chaya ri pwaq chike ri e mebꞌaibꞌ, kayaꞌtaj kꞌu na aqꞌinomal pa ri kaj. Kꞌa te riꞌ chatan loq, chinatereneꞌj.
22 But when the young man heard this, he went away sad, for he was one who had great possessions.
Are xuta ri ala ri xbꞌix che, kabꞌisonik xeꞌek, rumal sibꞌalaj nim uqꞌinomal ri kꞌolik.
23 Jesus said to his disciples, “Most certainly I say to you, a rich man will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven with difficulty.
Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike ri utijoxelabꞌ, qas tzij kinbꞌij chiꞌwe sibꞌalaj kꞌax rokem jun qꞌinom pa ri ajawarem rech ri kaj.
24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through a needle’s eye than for a rich man to enter into God’s Kingdom.”
Are man kꞌax taj rokem jun kameypa ri ujolom ri bꞌaq cho ri rokik ri qꞌinom pa ri ajawarem rech ri Dios.
25 When the disciples heard it, they were exceedingly astonished, saying, “Who then can be saved?”
Ri tijoxelabꞌ xemayijanik are xkita ri xbꞌix chike, xkibꞌij: We jeriꞌ ¿jachin kꞌu riꞌ ri kakwinik kukol ribꞌ?
26 Looking at them, Jesus said, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
Ri Jesús ko xuꞌkaꞌyej kꞌa te riꞌ xubꞌij chike: Ri Dios kakwinik kubꞌano ri man kakwin ta ri achi chubꞌanik.
27 Then Peter answered, “Behold, we have left everything and followed you. What then will we have?”
Ri Pedro xubꞌij che ri Jesús: Chilampe la, uj qatzaqom kanoq ronojel rumal tereneꞌxik la. ¿Jas kꞌu kaqachꞌek uj rukꞌ we riꞌ?
28 Jesus said to them, “Most certainly I tell you that you who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of Man will sit on the throne of his glory, you also will sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
Ri Jesús xubꞌij: Qas tzij kinbꞌij chiꞌwech are kabꞌan kꞌakꞌ che ri jastaq, are kintꞌuyiꞌ na In ri in uKꞌojol ri Achi pa ri tꞌuyulibꞌal ri kajuluwik, kixtꞌuyiꞌ xuqujeꞌ na ix pa ri kabꞌlajuj tꞌuyulibꞌal, rech kiqꞌat tzij pa kiwiꞌ ri e kabꞌlajuj wok winaq aꞌj Israel.
29 Everyone who has left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name’s sake, will receive one hundred times, and will inherit eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Ri winaq ri xa rumal we, xutzaq kan rachoch, e rachalal, e ranabꞌ, utat unan, e ralkꞌwaꞌl xuqujeꞌ rulew, kukꞌamawaꞌj na ciento mul ukꞌaxelal xuqujeꞌ ri jun alik kꞌaslemal. (aiōnios g166)
30 But many will be last who are first, and first who are last.
E kꞌi chike ri e nabꞌe, kuꞌx na e kꞌisbꞌal, xuqujeꞌ e kꞌi chike ri e kꞌisbꞌal kuꞌx na e nabꞌe.
