< Acts 10 >

1 Now there was a certain man in Caesarea, Cornelius by name, a centurion of what was called the Italian Regiment,
Kꞌo jun achi ubꞌiꞌnam Cornelio je laꞌ pa ri tinimit Cesarea, jun kinimaꞌqil ri ajchꞌoꞌjabꞌ chajil tinimit pa ri tinimit Roma rech ri wokaj ubꞌiꞌnam Italiano.
2 a devout man, and one who feared God with all his house, who gave gifts for the needy generously to the people, and always prayed to God.
Ri Cornelio sibꞌalaj kubꞌan toqꞌobꞌ chike ri winaq. Ri Cornelio xuqujeꞌ ri e kꞌo rukꞌ pa rachoch kakimochꞌ kibꞌ cho ri Dios kasipan chike ri e mebꞌaibꞌ xuqujeꞌ kubꞌan chꞌawem amaqꞌel cho ri Dios.
3 At about the ninth hour of the day, he clearly saw in a vision an angel of God coming to him and saying to him, “Cornelius!”
Jun qꞌijal pa ri oxibꞌ hora rech bꞌenaq qꞌij, ri Cornelio xril jun ángel rech ri Dios xqet rukꞌ. ¡Cornelio! xuchixik.
4 He, fastening his eyes on him and being frightened, said, “What is it, Lord?” He said to him, “Your prayers and your gifts to the needy have gone up for a memorial before God.
Ko xkaꞌyik xuxiꞌj ribꞌ, xubꞌij che: ¿Jas kaj la, tat? Ri ángel xubꞌij che: Ri Dios xuta ri achꞌawem xuqujeꞌ xqaj choch ri asipanik ri xaya chike ri mebꞌaibꞌ.
5 Now send men to Joppa, and get Simon, who is also called Peter.
Chanim kꞌut chaꞌtaqa bꞌik nikꞌaj achyabꞌ rech kebꞌe pa ri tinimit Jope rech keꞌkisikꞌij loq jun achi ubꞌiꞌ Simón Pedro.
6 He is staying with a tanner named Simon, whose house is by the seaside.
We achi riꞌ kꞌo cho rachoch ri Simón ri kachakun che taq tzꞌuꞌm, ri kel chuchiꞌ ri plo.
7 When the angel who spoke to him had departed, Cornelius called two of his household servants and a devout soldier of those who waited on him continually.
Are xeꞌ ri ángel, ri Cornelio xusikꞌij kebꞌ rajchakibꞌ rachiꞌl jun ajchꞌoꞌj ri sibꞌalaj kuꞌl ukꞌuꞌx chikij.
8 Having explained everything to them, he sent them to Joppa.
Xutzijoj chike ronojel ri xkꞌulmatajik kꞌa te riꞌ xuꞌtaq bꞌik pa ri tinimit Jope.
9 Now on the next day as they were on their journey and got close to the city, Peter went up on the housetop to pray at about noon.
Chukabꞌ qꞌij, are xeqeteqobꞌ ri e taqoꞌn pa ri tinimit. Ri Pedro xpaqiꞌ pa ri uwiq ri ja ri kꞌo chikaj chubꞌanik chꞌawem qas pa ri unikꞌajil qꞌij.
10 He became hungry and desired to eat, but while they were preparing, he fell into a trance.
Xaq kꞌa teꞌ sibꞌalaj xnumik, are kꞌu tajin kabꞌan ri uwa xaq kꞌa teꞌ xsachiꞌk, xkꞌut kꞌu jun mayijabꞌalalaj jastaq choch.
11 He saw heaven opened and a certain container descending to him, like a great sheet let down by four corners on the earth,
Xril ri kaj jaqalik xuqujeꞌ jun likꞌilik atzꞌyaq ximtal che ri kajibꞌ utzaꞌm tajin kaqaj loq cho ri uwachulew.
12 in which were all kinds of four-footed animals of the earth, wild animals, reptiles, and birds of the sky.
E kꞌo ronojel uwach aꞌwaj pa ri manta, aꞌwaj kajkaj kaqan, aꞌwaj ri kakijururej kibꞌ cho ri ulew, xuqujeꞌ aꞌwaj ri kerapinik.
13 A voice came to him, “Rise, Peter, kill and eat!”
Kꞌa te riꞌ xuta jun chꞌabꞌal xubꞌij che: Pedro chatwaꞌjiloq, chaꞌkamisaj, kꞌa te riꞌ chaꞌtijaꞌ.
14 But Peter said, “Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean.”
Ri Pedro xubꞌij: Tat, ri taqanik kubꞌij chi man yaꞌtal tal ketij we aꞌwaj riꞌ.
15 A voice came to him again the second time, “What God has cleansed, you must not call unclean.”
Ri chꞌabꞌal xtataj chi junmul, xubꞌij: Man kabꞌij taj chi man yaꞌtal taj katij ri uchꞌajchꞌobꞌem chi ri Dios.
16 This was done three times, and immediately the thing was received up into heaven.
Oxmul xril ri Pedro we kꞌulmatajem riꞌ, kꞌa te riꞌ xpaqabꞌax ri manta pa ri kaj.
17 Now while Peter was very perplexed in himself what the vision which he had seen might mean, behold, the men who were sent by Cornelius, having made inquiry for Simon’s house, stood before the gate,
Ri Pedro xmayijanik che ri xkꞌut choch, xuchomaj rij jas kel kubꞌij ri xrilo. Qas che ri qꞌotaj riꞌ, ri achyabꞌ ri xetaq bꞌik rumal ri Cornelio xkiriq ri rachoch ri Simón e takꞌatoj chik chuchiꞌ ri uchiꞌ ja.
18 and called and asked whether Simon, who was also called Peter, was lodging there.
Xekꞌorokꞌatik, xkito la chilaꞌ kꞌo wi ri jun achi ubꞌiꞌnam Simón.
19 While Peter was pondering the vision, the Spirit said to him, “Behold, three men seek you.
Ri Pedro kꞌut tajin kuchomaj na jas kel kubꞌij ri xrilo are xpe ri uchꞌabꞌal ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel xubꞌij che: Oxibꞌ achyabꞌ tajin katkitzukuj.
20 But arise, get down, and go with them, doubting nothing; for I have sent them.”
Chatwaꞌjiloq, chatqaj bꞌik, jat kukꞌ man kubꞌan ta kebꞌ akꞌuꞌx xa e nutaqom loq chasikꞌixik.
21 Peter went down to the men, and said, “Behold, I am he whom you seek. Why have you come?”
Xqaj kꞌu loq ri Pedro, xubꞌij chike ri winaq ri tajin kakitzukuj: In riꞌ ri achi ri tajin kitzukuj. ¿Jas kiwaj?
22 They said, “Cornelius, a centurion, a righteous man and one who fears God, and well spoken of by all the nation of the Jews, was directed by a holy angel to invite you to his house, and to listen to what you say.”
Ri winaq xkibꞌij: Xa xujutaq loq ri Cornelio, jun kinimaꞌqil ri ajchꞌoꞌjabꞌ pa ri tinimit Roma, jun achi ri sibꞌalaj kuꞌtoꞌ ri winaq, xuqujeꞌ kumochꞌ ribꞌ cho ri Dios, kanimax kumal konojel ri winaq aꞌj Israel. Jun tyoxalaj ángel xbꞌin che chi rajawaxik kateꞌ at cho rachoch rech kutatabꞌej ri katzijoj che.
23 So he called them in and provided a place to stay. On the next day Peter arose and went out with them, and some of the brothers from Joppa accompanied him.
Ri Pedro xuꞌkoj bꞌik pa ri ja xubꞌij chike chi kekanaj kan che ri chaqꞌabꞌ riꞌ pa ri ja ri kꞌo wi, chukabꞌ qꞌij xeꞌ kukꞌ xerachiꞌlaj bꞌik nikꞌaj alaxik ri keꞌl pa ri tinimit Jope.
24 On the next day they entered into Caesarea. Cornelius was waiting for them, having called together his relatives and his near friends.
Chukabꞌ qꞌij xoꞌpan pa ri tinimit Cesarea. Ri Cornelio e rayeꞌm apanoq uꞌmulim ri rachalal xuqujeꞌ e rech taq chꞌabꞌeꞌn.
25 When Peter entered, Cornelius met him, fell down at his feet, and worshiped him.
Ri Pedro are xok bꞌik pa ri ja, xukiꞌ ri Cornelio choch, xuqꞌijilaꞌj.
26 But Peter raised him up, saying, “Stand up! I myself am also a man.”
Ri Pedro xubꞌij che: Chatwaꞌjiloq, ri in, in jun achi jetaq ri at.
27 As he talked with him, he went in and found many gathered together.
Xkichapleꞌj kꞌu tzij, kꞌa te riꞌ xoꞌk bꞌik jawjeꞌ ri kimulim wi kibꞌ ri nikꞌaj winaq chik.
28 He said to them, “You yourselves know how it is an unlawful thing for a man who is a Jew to join himself or come to one of another nation, but God has shown me that I should not call any man unholy or unclean.
Ri Pedro xubꞌij: Ix iwetaꞌm chi ri qataqanik kubꞌij chi man kuya taj chi jun winaq aj Israel katzijon rukꞌ jun winaq ri man aj Israel taj, pune jeriꞌ ri Dios xukꞌut chinuwach chi man kuya taj kinbꞌij chꞌuluj che ri uchꞌajchꞌobꞌem chi Areꞌ.
29 Therefore I also came without complaint when I was sent for. I ask therefore, why did you send for me?”
Rumal riꞌ man xinkꞌopij ta wibꞌ xinpe waral are xiniꞌsikꞌij loq. Chibꞌij bꞌa chwe jas rumal xiniꞌkꞌama loq.
30 Cornelius said, “Four days ago, I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour, I prayed in my house, and behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing
Ri Cornelio xutzijoj we riꞌ: Chi kajibꞌ qꞌij kanoq tajin kinbꞌan chꞌawem pa ri wachoch pa ri urox hora rech bꞌenaq qꞌij. Xaq kꞌa teꞌ jun achi karepqꞌun ri ratzꞌyaq xtakꞌatobꞌ chinuwach.
31 and said, ‘Cornelius, your prayer is heard, and your gifts to the needy are remembered in the sight of God.
Xubꞌij chwe: Cornelio, ri achꞌawem xtataj rumal ri Dios xuqujeꞌ xril ri asipanik ri kaya chike ri mebꞌaibꞌ.
32 Send therefore to Joppa and summon Simon, who is also called Peter. He is staying in the house of a tanner named Simon, by the seaside. When he comes, he will speak to you.’
Chanim kꞌut chattaqan chukꞌamik ri jun achi ubꞌiꞌ Simón Pedro, kꞌo pa ri rachoch ri Simón ri kachakun che taq tzꞌuꞌm, ri kel chuchiꞌ ri plo, pa ri tinimit Jope.
33 Therefore I sent to you at once, and it was good of you to come. Now therefore we are all here present in the sight of God to hear all things that have been commanded you by God.”
Rumal riꞌ aninaq xintaqan che asikꞌixik, tyox chawe xatpetik. Che we chanim qonojel qamulim qibꞌ choch ri Dios, qayeꞌm kaqata ri utzij ri uyoꞌm chawe.
34 Peter opened his mouth and said, “Truly I perceive that God does not show favoritism;
Ri Pedro xubꞌij: Chanim kinwilo chi ri Dios man xaq ta kuꞌchaꞌ ri winaq ri keꞌraj.
35 but in every nation he who fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.
Xane kuꞌkꞌamawaꞌj konojel ri kakimochꞌ kibꞌ choch xuqujeꞌ kakibꞌan ri utzilal.
36 The word which he sent to the children of Israel, preaching good news of peace by Jesus Christ—he is Lord of all—
Ri utz laj tzij ri yaꞌtal che ri tinimit Israel are chi kꞌo jaꞌmaril rukꞌ ri Dios, rumal ri Jesucristo, ri Ajawxel rech ronojel ri kꞌolik.
37 you yourselves know what happened, which was proclaimed throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;
Iwetaꞌm ri xkꞌulmatajik, ri xchapleꞌtaj loq pa ronojel ri tinimit Judea, pa Galilea are xbꞌantaj ri uqasanaꞌ ri Jesús rumal ri Juan
38 how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.
Iwetaꞌm xuqujeꞌ chi ri Dios xuya ri kwinem rech ri Uxlabꞌixel che ri Jesús aj Nazaret. Rumal kꞌu wa ri Jesús xubꞌan ri utzilal, xuꞌkunaj ri e yawabꞌibꞌ xuqujeꞌ ri e jatꞌital rumal ri itzel, rumal kꞌo ri Dios rukꞌ.
39 We are witnesses of everything he did both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem; whom they also killed, hanging him on a tree.
Ri uj, uj taqoꞌn xqilo ronojel ri xubꞌano pa ronojel Judea xuqujeꞌ pa Jerusalén, xqilo are xkamisaxik xuqujeꞌ xekebꞌax cho ri jun cheꞌ.
40 God raised him up the third day and gave him to be revealed,
Ri Dios kꞌut xukꞌastajisaj ri Jesús churox qꞌij. Ri Dios xuqujeꞌ xuya bꞌe che chi kukꞌut chi na ribꞌ junmul.
41 not to all the people, but to witnesses who were chosen before by God, to us, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.
Man chikiwach ta konojel ri winaq xane xaq chikiwach ri xuchaꞌo rech jeriꞌ kaqaqꞌalajisaj ri xkꞌulmatajik. Uj riꞌ, ri xujwaꞌ rukꞌ, xujqumun rukꞌ are xkꞌastaj uwach chikixoꞌl ri kaminaqibꞌ.
42 He commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that this is he who is appointed by God as the Judge of the living and the dead.
Ri Dios xuchaꞌ ri Jesús, rech kux qꞌatal tzij pa kiwiꞌ konojel ri winaq ri e kꞌaslik xuqujeꞌ ri e kaminaq, xujutaq kꞌu chutzijoxik xuqujeꞌ chuqꞌalajisaxik chike konojel ri winaq pa ronojel ri uwachulew.
43 All the prophets testify about him, that through his name everyone who believes in him will receive remission of sins.”
Are waꞌ ri xkitzijoj loq ri e qꞌalajisal taq tzij chirij ri Jesús, are xkibꞌij: jachin kakojon che Areꞌ kakuyutaj ri umak pa ri ubꞌiꞌ.
44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all those who heard the word.
Tajin katzijon na ri Pedro are xqaj ri Uxlabꞌixel pa kiwiꞌ ri tajin kakitatabꞌej ri utz laj tzij.
45 They of the circumcision who believed were amazed, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit was also poured out on the Gentiles.
Ri e kojonelabꞌ aꞌj Israel ri e rachiꞌl bꞌi ri Pedro, xemayijanik are xkil ri usipanik ri Uxlabꞌixel xqaj pa kiwiꞌ ri winaq ri man aꞌj Israel taj.
46 For they heard them speaking in other languages and magnifying God. Then Peter answered,
Xkito are kechꞌaw pa juleꞌ taq chꞌabꞌal chik, xuqujeꞌ kakiqꞌijilaꞌj ri Dios. Ri Pedro xuta chike:
47 “Can anyone forbid these people from being baptized with water? They have received the Holy Spirit just like us.”
¿La kꞌo jun man karaj taj kaqabꞌan kiqasanaꞌ we winaq riꞌ? Aꞌreꞌ xkikꞌamawaꞌj ri Uxlabꞌixel jetaq ri uj.
48 He commanded them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked him to stay some days.
Xtaqan kꞌu ri Pedro kabꞌan kiqasanaꞌ pa ri ubꞌiꞌ ri Jesucristo. Kꞌa te riꞌ ri Cornelio xubꞌochiꞌj chi kakanaj kan ri Pedro jun janipa qꞌij rukꞌ.
