1 Corinthians 7
1 Now, concerning the things whereof ye wrote, it were, good, for a man, not to touch, a woman;
Chanim kꞌut are kintzijoj rij ri jastaq ri xitzꞌibꞌaj loq chwe. Qas utz we ri achi man kaqꞌoyiꞌ ta rukꞌ jun ixoq.
2 But, on account of fornications, let, each man, have, his own wife, and, each woman, have, her own husband:
Xa kꞌu rumal ri makaj ri kakibꞌan achyabꞌ kukꞌ taq ixoqibꞌ xuqujeꞌ ri ixoqibꞌ kukꞌ taq achyabꞌ, are utz we ri achi kutzukuj rixoqil xuqujeꞌ ri ixoq kutzukuj rachajil.
3 Unto the wife, let the husband render what is her due, and, in like manner, the wife also, unto the husband, —
Rajawaxik kꞌut ri achi kubꞌan rukꞌ ri rixoqil ri rajawaxik ubꞌanik, xuqujeꞌ ri ixoq kubꞌan rukꞌ ri rachajil ri rajawaxik ubꞌanik.
4 The wife, over her own body, hath not authority, but the husband, and, in like manner, the husband also, over his own body, hath not authority, but the wife.
Man are ta ri ixoq kabꞌan rech puꞌwiꞌ ri utyoꞌjal, xane are ri rachajil. Man are ta xuqujeꞌ ri achajilom kabꞌan rech puꞌwiꞌ ri utyoꞌjal xane are ri rixoqil.
5 Be not depriving one another—unless perhaps by consent for a season, that ye may have leisure for prayer, and, again, may be together, —lest Satan be tempting you by reason of your want of self-control.
Mixuꞌyaj bꞌa iwibꞌ chibꞌil iwibꞌ. Xane xwi chiqꞌata iwibꞌ we amaqꞌel kibꞌan chꞌawem xuqujeꞌ junam xichomaj. Mibꞌey iwibꞌ churiqik chi iwibꞌ junmul, rech man kixutaqchiꞌj ta ri itzel pa mak rumal chi man kixkwin taj kiqꞌil iwibꞌ.
6 This, however I am saying, by way of concession, not of injunction;
Xaq xwi kinbꞌij ri utz ubꞌanik, man tajin ta kinya jun taqanik chiꞌwe.
7 Besides, I desire all men to be, even as myself, —but, each one, hath his, personal, gift from God, one, after this manner, and, another, after that.
Qas tzij wi, sibꞌalaj kurayij na kꞌuꞌx we ta je ibꞌanik jetaq ri nubꞌanik in. Jaljoj kꞌu wi ri sipanik ri uyaꞌom ri Dios chaqe. Jun wi ri sipanik yaꞌtal che jun, jun chi wi yaꞌtal che ri jun chik.
8 But I say, to the unmarried, and to the widows, good, were it for them, that they should abide, even as I;
Kinbꞌij chike ri kꞌamajaꞌ kekꞌuliꞌk xuqujeꞌ chike ri e malkaꞌnibꞌ, utz riꞌ we man kekꞌuliꞌ taj jetaq ri nubꞌanik in.
9 But, if they have not self-control, let them marry, for, better, is it, to marry than to burn.
We kꞌu man kakiqꞌiꞌo chekꞌulanoq, are katanik we kekꞌuliꞌk cho ri kekꞌat na rumal ri kirayinik.
10 To the married, however, I give charge—not, I, but the Lord, —that, a wife, from her husband, do not depart, —
Kinya we taqanik riꞌ chike ri e kꞌulanik winaq (jeꞌ man in taj are ri Ajawxel) ri ixoq mutas ribꞌ che ri rachajil.
11 But, if she should even depart, let her remain unmarried, or, to her husband, be reconciled; and let not, a husband, leave, his wife.
We kꞌu kujach ri rachajil, makꞌuliꞌ chi bꞌa junmul, xane tzalij rukꞌ ri rachajil. Xuqujeꞌ ri achi mujach ri rixoqil.
12 But, unto the rest, say, I—not the Lord, —if, any brother, hath, a wife that believeth not, and, she, is well pleased to dwell with him, let him not leave her;
Chike ri nikꞌaj chik kinbꞌij (man utaqanik ta ri Ajawxel waꞌ we riꞌ): we kꞌo ne jun alaxik kuriq jun rixoqil man kojonel taj, karaj kꞌu ri ixoq kakꞌojiꞌ rukꞌ, mujacho.
13 And, a woman who hath a husband that believeth not, and, he, is well pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave her husband; —
We kꞌu are ri rachajil ri ixoq man kojonel taj, karaj kꞌu ri achi kakꞌojiꞌ rukꞌ, mujach ri ixoq ri rachajil.
14 For the husband that believeth not is hallowed in the wife, and the wife that believeth not is hallowed in the brother: else were, your children, impure, but, now, are they, pure.
Rumal cher ri achajilom ri man kojonel taj xtyoxirisataj riꞌ rumal ri uriqoj ibꞌ rukꞌ ri rixoqil, je xuqujeꞌ ri ixoqilom ri man kojonel taj xtyoxirisataj riꞌ rumal ri uriqoj ibꞌ rukꞌ ri rachajil. We ta mat jeriꞌ e chꞌuluj bꞌa riꞌ ri akꞌalabꞌ kekꞌojiꞌk, man e chꞌuluj ta kꞌut xane e tyoxirisatal chik.
15 But, if, the unbelieving, departeth, let him depart: the brother or the sister hath not come into bondage, in such cases, but, in peace, hath God called us.
Pune jeriꞌ, we ri ukꞌulaj jun ri man kojonel taj karaj kꞌut kujach ribꞌ che ri ukꞌulaj kojonel, miqꞌatej. We jewaꞌ kakꞌulmatajik, ri kojonel man kakanaj ta kanoq chuxeꞌ eqaꞌn. Rumal cher ri Dios xujusikꞌij apanoq rech kujkꞌojiꞌk pa jaꞌmaril.
16 For how knowest thou, O woman, whether, thy husband, thou shalt save? Or how knowest thou, O man, whether, thy wife, thou shalt save?
¿Jas awetaꞌm at ixoq wine awumal awe kakolotaj na ri awachajil? O ¿jas awetaꞌm at achi wine rumal awe kakolotaj na ri awixoqil?
17 If not—as the Lord hath distributed—unto each one, as God hath called, each one, so, let him be walking; —and, so, in all the assemblies, I ordain.
Chiꞌjujunal bꞌa chibꞌana ri ixusikꞌim wi apanoq ri Dios xuqujeꞌ ri ixutaqom chubꞌanik, kintaqanik rech jewaꞌ kabꞌan pa ronojel ri komontyox.
18 After being circumcised, was any called? let him not become uncircumcised; in uncircumcision, hath any been called? let him not be circumcised:
Jacha ta ne ri winaq ri xkojonik xuqujeꞌ kojtal retal, man yaꞌtal ta chik katzalix ri sakꞌital che, je xuqujeꞌ ri man kojtal ta retal are xkojonik, man kakoj ta chi retal rumal cher xkojonik.
19 The circumcision, is, nothing, and, the uncircumcision, is, nothing, —but keeping the commandments of God.
Maj kutayij we sakꞌital jun o man sakꞌital taj. Are kꞌo kutayij we kanimaxik ri utaqanik ri Dios.
20 Each one, in the calling wherein he was called, in the same, let him abide:
Chixkꞌol bꞌa ijujunal jawjeꞌ ri ix kꞌo wi are xixusikꞌij apanoq ri Dios.
21 A bond-servant, wast thou called? let it not cause thee concern; but, if thou canst even become, free, rather use it.
We at ajchak rech jun chik xuqujeꞌ are kabꞌan rech pa awiꞌ man kakꞌaxir taj awanimaꞌ. We kꞌu katkwinik katel pa uqꞌabꞌ ri kabꞌan rech pa awiꞌ, jeꞌlik riꞌ.
22 For, he who in the Lord was called, being a bond-servant, is, a freed-man of the Lord: in like manner, he that was called being, a freeman, is Christ’s bond-servant: —
Rumal cher ri ajchak are xsikꞌix apanoq rumal ri Ajawxel, xkiritaj riꞌ rumal ri Ajawxel, je xuqujeꞌ ri xsikꞌix apanoq man ajchak taj, xux riꞌ rajchak ri Cristo.
23 With a price, have ye been bought, —do not become bond-servants of men:
Paqal xloqꞌbꞌex iwe. Xaq jeriꞌ man kixtzalij ta chik che rajchak japachinaq.
24 Each one, wherein he was called, brethren, in the same, let him abide with God.
Qachalal, chiꞌjujunal chixkꞌoloq jetaq ri ibꞌanik are xixsikꞌix apanoq rumal ri Dios.
25 But, concerning them who are virgin, injunction of the Lord, have I none; yet, a judgment, do I give, as one who hath obtained mercy from the Lord to be, faithful:
Are kꞌu ri majaꞌ kekꞌuliꞌk, man kꞌo ta jun taqanik rech ri Ajawxel ri yaꞌtal chwe rech kinbꞌij chike, kinbꞌij kꞌu ri kinchomaj in, jer ta ne in kꞌo jun ri xyaꞌtaj wi ri utoqꞌobꞌ ri Dios rech in kuꞌlibꞌal kuꞌx.
26 I consider this, then, to be, good, in the circumstances, by reason of the existing distress, —that it is, good for a man, so, to be:
In kinchomaj chi utz we ri winaq je kakanaj kanoq jetaq ri ubꞌanik chanim, jeriꞌ rumal cher kꞌax ri qꞌotaj ri uj kꞌo kamik.
27 Hast thou become bound to a wife? do not seek to be loosed; hast thou become loosed from a wife? do not seek a wife.
¿We at kꞌulanik? Man karayij taj kajach ri akꞌulaj. ¿We man at kꞌulanik? Matzukuj awixoqil.
28 If, however, thou shouldst even marry, thou hast not sinned; and, if one who is virgin should marry, that one hath not sinned; —but, tribulation of the flesh, shall, such, have: —howbeit, I, spare you.
Man katmakun taj we katkꞌuliꞌk. We kꞌu kꞌo jun akꞌal ali kakꞌuliꞌk, man kamakun ta xuqujeꞌ. Pune jeriꞌ, ri winaq ri kekꞌuliꞌk sibꞌalaj kꞌi kꞌax kakiriq na pa ri kityoꞌjal, are kꞌu ri man kawaj ta in kiriqo.
29 But, this, I say—the opportunity is, contracted for what remaineth—in order that, they who have wives, may be, as though they had none,
Wachalal, ri kawaj kinbꞌij are: xa jubꞌiqꞌ chi ri qꞌotaj ri kakanaj chaqe. Ri e kꞌo kixoqil kibꞌanaꞌ chi jer ta ne e maj kixoqil.
30 And, they who weep, as though they wept not, and, they who rejoice, as though they rejoiced not, and, they who buy, as though they possessed not,
Ri koꞌqꞌik kibꞌanaꞌ chi jer man koqꞌ taj. Ri kekiꞌkotik kibꞌanaꞌ chi man kekiꞌkot taj. Ri kakiloqꞌ jun jas ke kibꞌanaꞌ chi je ri man xkechabꞌej taj.
31 And, they who use the world, as though they used it not to the full, —for the fashion of this world passeth away;
Ri kakikiꞌkotebꞌej ubꞌanik ri jastaq rech we uwachulew riꞌ, kibꞌana chi je ri man kakikiꞌkotebꞌej taj ubꞌanik. Jeriꞌ rumal cher we uwachulew riꞌ xuqujeꞌ ri kꞌo choch kasach na uwach.
32 And I desire you to be, without anxiety: —the unmarried man, is anxious for the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord;
Kurayij wanimaꞌ in chi man kakꞌaxir taj iwanimaꞌ che taq ri jastaq. Ri akꞌal taq alabꞌom ri man e kꞌulan taj, are kakꞌaxir kikꞌuꞌx che ri jastaq rech ri Ajawxel rech keqaj choch.
33 But, he that hath married, is anxious for the things of the world, how may please his wife—
Are kꞌu ri kꞌulanik winaq are kakꞌaxir ranimaꞌ che ri jastaq rech ri uwachulew xuqujeꞌ rech kaqaj choch ri rixoqil.
34 And he is divided; and, the unmarried woman, or the virgin, is anxious for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy [both] in her body and in her spirit; but, she that hath married, is anxious for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.
Jaljoj ri kakaj. Ri ixoq ri man kꞌulan taj xuqujeꞌ ri akꞌal ali ri man kꞌulan taj, kakꞌaxir ranimaꞌ chuchꞌojchꞌobꞌexik ri tyoꞌjal xuqujeꞌ ri ranimaꞌ rech kaqaj cho ri Ajawxel. Are kꞌu ri kꞌulanik ixoq are kakꞌaxir ranimaꞌ che ri jastaq rech ri uwachulew xuqujeꞌ chubꞌanik ri kaqaj choch ri rachajil.
35 This, however, with a view to your own profit, am I saying, —not that, a snare, upon you, I may cast, but with a view to what is comely, and devoted unto the Lord, without distraction.
Kinbꞌij we jastaq riꞌ chiꞌwe rech utz kixelik, man xa ta kixinqꞌatej, xane are kawaj utz ri ikꞌaslemal choch ri Ajawxel.
36 If however anyone considereth it behaving unseemly towards his virginity, if he should be beyond the bloom of life, —and, thus, it ought to come about, what he chooseth, let him do, —he sinneth not: let them marry:
We kꞌo ne jun man je ta tajin kubꞌan chi rilik ri ali ri ubꞌim kꞌulanem che xuqujeꞌ we ri ali utz chik kakꞌuliꞌk, rumal riꞌ kunaꞌ ri ala chi utz chik kekꞌuliꞌk, chekꞌulanoq. Man kemakun taj we kekꞌuliꞌk.
37 But, he that standeth in his heart, steadfast, having no necessity, but hath authority concerning his own will, and, this, hath determined in his own heart, —to preserve his own virginity, well shall he do.
Are kꞌu ri kunaꞌo chi man karaj taj kakꞌuliꞌk xuqujeꞌ kakwinik kabꞌan rech puꞌwiꞌ ri utyoꞌjal, utz riꞌ ri kanoꞌjinik we xuchomaj chi man kakꞌuliꞌ ta rukꞌ ri ali ri ubꞌim kꞌulanem che.
38 So that, he that giveth in marriage his own virginity, doeth, well; and, he that giveth it not, shall do, better.
Je kꞌu riꞌ, utz riꞌ ri kubꞌan jun winaq we kakꞌuliꞌk rukꞌ ri ali ri ubꞌim kꞌulanem, xa kꞌu are sibꞌalaj utz na kubꞌano we man kakꞌuliꞌ rukꞌ.
39 A wife, is bound for as long a time as her husband is living; but, if the husband have fallen asleep, she is, free, to be married unto whom she pleaseth, —only, in the Lord;
Ri ixoq nukꞌul rukꞌ ri rachajil are kꞌaslik. We kꞌu kakam ri achajilom, kasolotaj kanoq ri ixoq rech kakꞌuliꞌ chi rukꞌ xapachin ri karaj areꞌ, xwi ta ne wi we pa ri Ajawxel kekꞌuliꞌ wi.
40 But, happier, is she, if, so, she remain, —in my judgment; for I think, I also, have the Spirit of God.
Kinchomaj in chi ri ixoq sibꞌalaj kakiꞌkot na we man kakꞌuliꞌ chik. Kinkojo chi kꞌo ri Uxlabꞌixel rech ri Dios chwe chubꞌixik we jastaq riꞌ.
