< 1 John 1 >

1 That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we saw, and our hands touched, concerning the Word of life
Ri kꞌo wi loq are majoꞌq katik ronojel ri jastaq, ri xqato, ri xqil rukꞌ ri qabꞌoqꞌoch, ri qas xqachap rukꞌ ri qaqꞌabꞌ, ri tzij ri kuya kꞌaslemal, are waꞌ ri kaqatzijoj chiꞌwe.
2 (and the life was revealed, and we have seen, and testify, and declare to you the life, the eternal life, which was with the Father, and was revealed to us); (aiōnios g166)
We kꞌaslemal riꞌ xukꞌut ribꞌ chiqawach rumal waꞌ kaqatzijoj xuqujeꞌ kaqaqꞌalajisaj chiꞌwe ri jun alik kꞌaslemal ri ojer kꞌo rukꞌ ri Tataxel Dios. (aiōnios g166)
3 that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us. Yes, and our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.
Kaqatzijoj chiꞌwe ri xqilo xuqujeꞌ xqato rech kꞌo qariqoj ibꞌ iwukꞌ, xuqujeꞌ rukꞌ ri Tataxel Dios, rachiꞌl ri ukꞌojol Jesucristo.
4 And we write these things to you, that our joy may be fulfilled.
Kaqatzꞌibꞌaj we jastaq riꞌ chiꞌwe rech qas katzꞌaqat ri qakiꞌkotemal.
5 This is the message which we have heard from him and announce to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
Are waꞌ ri tzij ri xubꞌij ri Cristo chaqe, rumal riꞌ kaqatzijoj chiꞌwe: Ri Dios are tunal, maj qꞌequꞌmal rukꞌ Areꞌ.
6 If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie and don’t tell the truth.
We kaqabꞌij chi kꞌo qariqoj ibꞌ rukꞌ ri Cristo kꞌa te riꞌ xaq jeꞌ uj kꞌo pa ri qꞌequꞌmal, xaq uj bꞌanal taq tzij riꞌ, man tajin ta kaqanimaj ri Dios.
7 But if we walk in the light as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son, cleanses us from all sin.
We uj kꞌo pa ri tunal, jacha ri Cristo kꞌo pa ri tunal, kꞌo qariqoj ibꞌ riꞌ kukꞌ nikꞌaj chik, xuqujeꞌ ri ukikꞌel ri Cristo, ukꞌojol ri Dios are kujchꞌajchꞌobꞌen che ronojel uwach mak.
8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
We kaqabꞌij chi maj qamak, uj bꞌanal taq tzij riꞌ, man uj kꞌo ta riꞌ pa ri qas tzij.
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
We kaqatzujuj qibꞌ che ri qamak, ri Dios ri sibꞌalaj sukꞌ ri kubꞌano ri kubꞌij, kujukuy na xuqujeꞌ kujuchꞌajchꞌobꞌej na che ronojel uwach etzelal.
10 If we say that we haven’t sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
We kaqabꞌij chi man uj makuninaq taj, tajin kaqabꞌij riꞌ chi ri Dios xaq bꞌanal tzij, xuqujeꞌ man kꞌo ta riꞌ ri utzij pa qanimaꞌ.
