Matthew 14
1 At that time, Herod the tetrarch heard the report concerning Jesus,
Pa taq ri qꞌij riꞌ, ri Herodes are taqanel pa Galilea. Are xretaꞌmaj ri kakitzijoj ri winaq che ri Jesús
2 and said to his servants, “This is John the Baptizer. He is risen from the dead. That is why these powers work in him.”
xubꞌij chike ri e patanil rech: Qas tzij kinbꞌij chiꞌwe, ri Jesús are Juan Bꞌanal qasanaꞌ, xa xkꞌastaj loq. Rumal riꞌ kakwinik kubꞌan mayijabꞌal taq jastaq.
3 For Herod had arrested John, bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife.
Ri Herodes are xkojow ri Juan pa cheꞌ rumal cher xyojtajik rumal cher xbꞌix che: Man utz taj ri xabꞌano, xaweleqꞌaj ri Herodías rixoqil ri awachalal, Felipe, xatkꞌuliꞌ rukꞌ.
4 For John said to him, “It is not lawful for you to have her.”
Ri Juan kꞌi mul xubꞌij che: Man kuya ta bꞌe ri taqanik chawe kakꞌam ri Herodías che awixoqil.
5 When he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.
Ri Herodes are xraj kukamisaj ri Juan, man xkwin ta kꞌut rumal cher kuxiꞌj ribꞌ chikiwach ri winaq, rumal cher ri winaq ketaꞌm chi ri Juan jun qꞌalajisal utzij ri Dios.
6 But when Herod’s birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced among them and pleased Herod.
Are xtzaꞌqat chik jun ujunabꞌ ri Herodes, xubꞌan jun nimaqꞌij, ri ral ali ri Herodías xojow chikiwach konojel ri winaq ri e sikꞌitalik.
7 Therefore he promised with an oath to give her whatever she should ask.
Sibꞌalaj xqaj choch ri Herodes ri xojowem ri xubꞌan ri ali, rumal riꞌ xubꞌij che ri ali chi kuya che xapakux ri karaj.
8 She, being prompted by her mother, said, “Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptizer.”
Ri Herodías ri unan ri ali are xutabꞌej re we riꞌ, xukoj ukꞌuꞌx ri ral rech kuta che ri Herodes chi kaya loq pa jun palaꞌt ri ujolom ri Juan Bꞌanal qasanaꞌ.
9 The king was grieved, but for the sake of his oaths and of those who sat at the table with him, he commanded it to be given,
Sibꞌalaj xbꞌison ri Herodes are xuta ri xbꞌix che, xa kꞌu rumal cher xutzuj che ri ali, xapakux ri kata che. Man xraj ta ukꞌuꞌx mat xtakꞌiꞌ pa ri utzij chikiwach ri e winaq ri e sikꞌital pa ri nimaqꞌij. Xaq jeriꞌ maj chi xkwinik xubꞌano, xuꞌtaq ri e patanil rech chuyaꞌik ri xutoqꞌij ri ali.
10 and he sent and beheaded John in the prison.
Ri e patanil rech ri Herodes xebꞌe pa ri cheꞌ, xeꞌkikutij loq ri ujolom ri Juan.
11 His head was brought on a platter and given to the young lady; and she brought it to her mother.
Xkiya pa jun palaꞌt, xeꞌkiya che ri ali. Ri ali xuꞌya che ri unan.
12 His disciples came, took the body, and buried it. Then they went and told Jesus.
Ri utijoxelabꞌ ri Juan xeꞌkikꞌama loq ri utyoꞌjal ri kajtij Juan, xeꞌkimuqu kanoq. Kꞌa te riꞌ, xeꞌkitzijoj che ri Jesús ri xkꞌulmatajik.
13 Now when Jesus heard this, he withdrew from there in a boat to a deserted place apart. When the multitudes heard it, they followed him on foot from the cities.
Are xuta ri Jesús ri xbꞌan che ri Juan Bꞌanal qasanaꞌ, xaqꞌan bꞌik pa jun jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal puꞌwiꞌ ri jaꞌ, xeꞌ pa jun kꞌolibꞌal jawjeꞌ ri utz kakꞌojiꞌ wi utukel. Ri winaq ri keꞌl pa taq ri tinimit are xketaꞌmaj jawjeꞌ keꞌ wi ri Jesús, xkitereneꞌj bꞌik chikaqan.
14 Jesus went out, and he saw a great multitude. He had compassion on them and healed their sick.
Are xqaj ri Jesús pa ri jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal, xeꞌril sibꞌalaj e kꞌi winaq. Xel ukꞌuꞌx chike xuꞌkunaj konojel ri e yawabꞌibꞌ.
15 When evening had come, his disciples came to him, saying, “This place is deserted, and the hour is already late. Send the multitudes away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves food.”
Are xuchapleꞌj uqajem ri qꞌij, ri e tijoxelabꞌ xeqet rukꞌ ri Jesús xkibꞌij che: Waꞌ we kꞌolibꞌal riꞌ naj kꞌo wi che ri tinimit, xuqujeꞌ tajin kaqaj le qꞌij. Bꞌij la chike ri winaq chebꞌoꞌj pa taq ri tinimit, jeꞌkiloqꞌo kiwa.
16 But Jesus said to them, “They don’t need to go away. You give them something to eat.”
Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: Man rajawaxik ta laꞌ kebꞌek. Chiꞌtzuqu ix.
17 They told him, “We only have here five loaves and two fish.”
Ri tijoxelabꞌ xkibꞌij che: Xaq xwi kꞌo jobꞌ kaxlan wa qukꞌ xuqujeꞌ kebꞌ kar.
18 He said, “Bring them here to me.”
Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: Chikꞌama loq waral.
19 He commanded the multitudes to sit down on the grass; and he took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, broke and gave the loaves to the disciples; and the disciples gave to the multitudes.
Are xeꞌtaqtaj ri winaq rech ketꞌuyiꞌ cho ri saq, ri Jesús xukꞌam ri jobꞌ kaxlan wa rachiꞌl ri kebꞌ kar, xkaꞌy chikaj, xtyoxin che ri Dios, kꞌa te riꞌ xupirij ri kaxlan wa xuya chike ri utijoxelabꞌ, rech kakijach chike ri winaq.
20 They all ate and were filled. They took up twelve baskets full of that which remained left over from the broken pieces.
Konojel ri winaq xewaꞌik, sibꞌalaj xenojik, ri tijoxelabꞌ xkimulij ronojel ri chꞌaqaꞌp ri xkanajik, chi ronojel xkiriq na kabꞌlajuj chakach.
21 Those who ate were about five thousand men, in addition to women and children.
Karaj e jobꞌ mil achyabꞌ ri xewaꞌik, man xaꞌjilax ta ri ixoqibꞌ rachiꞌl ri akꞌalabꞌ.
22 Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go ahead of him to the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.
Kꞌa te riꞌ ri Jesús xubꞌij chike ri utijoxelabꞌ: Chixaqꞌan pa le jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal puꞌwiꞌ le jaꞌ, jix chꞌaqaꞌp che le cho. In kinkanaj na kanoq waral Keꞌnchꞌabꞌej na kan le winaq, kꞌa te kixeꞌn riqaꞌ.
23 After he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into the mountain by himself to pray. When evening had come, he was there alone.
Are xebꞌe konojel ri winaq, ri Jesús xpaqiꞌ utukel puꞌwiꞌ jun laj juyubꞌ, xubꞌan chꞌawem. Tajin kubꞌan chꞌawem are xok ri aqꞌabꞌ.
24 But the boat was now in the middle of the sea, distressed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.
Are kꞌu ri jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal puꞌwiꞌ ri jaꞌ naj chi kꞌo wi apanoq, kapuyiloꞌx rukꞌ chuqꞌabꞌ rumal ri kyaqiqꞌ xuqujeꞌ rumal ri jaꞌ.
25 In the fourth watch of the night, Jesus came to them, walking on the sea.
Kꞌa chaqꞌabꞌ na are xuchapleꞌj bꞌinem ri Jesús puꞌwiꞌ ri jaꞌ xqebꞌ chuxukut ri jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal puꞌwiꞌ ri jaꞌ.
26 When the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, “It’s a ghost!” and they cried out for fear.
Are xkil ri tijoxelabꞌ chi tajin kabꞌin puꞌwiꞌ ri jaꞌ, man xkichꞌobꞌ taj chi are Jesús, sibꞌalaj xkixiꞌj kibꞌ, xkiraq kichiꞌ xkibꞌij: ¡Jun subꞌunel!
27 But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, “Cheer up! It is I! Don’t be afraid.”
Ri Jesús aninaq xubꞌij chike: In waꞌ, kꞌol ichuqꞌabꞌ. Man kixiꞌj ta iwibꞌ.
28 Peter answered him and said, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the waters.”
Ri Pedro xubꞌij che: Ajawxel, we qas lal, bꞌana la chwe chi kinbꞌin xuqujeꞌ in puꞌwiꞌ le ja, rech kineꞌ apanoq jawjeꞌ le kꞌo wi la.
29 He said, “Come!” Peter stepped down from the boat and walked on the waters to come to Jesus.
Ri Jesús xubꞌij che: Chatan loq. Aninaq xqaj ri Pedro pa ri jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal puꞌwiꞌ ri jaꞌ, xbꞌin puꞌwiꞌ ri jaꞌ xeꞌ rukꞌ ri Jesús.
30 But when he saw that the wind was strong, he was afraid, and beginning to sink, he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!”
Are xunaꞌ ri uchuqꞌabꞌ ri kyaqiqꞌ, xuxiꞌj ribꞌ. Xuchapleꞌj qajem xeꞌ ri jaꞌ, xubꞌij: ¡Wajaw, chintoꞌ la!
31 Immediately Jesus stretched out his hand, took hold of him, and said to him, “You of little faith, why did you doubt?”
Ri Jesús xuchap apanoq ri Pedro, xubꞌij che: Pedro man qas ta kuꞌl akꞌuꞌx chwij, ¿jas che xubꞌan kebꞌ akꞌuꞌx?
32 When they got up into the boat, the wind ceased.
Are xepaqiꞌ kikobꞌchal pa ri jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal puꞌwiꞌ ri jaꞌ, xtaniꞌ ri kyaqiqꞌ.
33 Those who were in the boat came and worshiped him, saying, “You are truly the Son of God!”
Konojel ri e kꞌo pa ri jukubꞌ bꞌinibꞌal, xexukiꞌ choch ri Jesús xkibꞌij che: Qas tzij wi, lal, lal Ralkꞌwaꞌl ri Dios.
34 When they had crossed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret.
Are xeqꞌax chꞌaqaꞌp che ri cho, xoꞌpan pa ri tinimit Genesaret.
35 When the people of that place recognized him, they sent into all that surrounding region and brought to him all who were sick;
Ri winaq ri keꞌl pa ri tinimit are xkil uwach ri Jesús, xkitzijoj chike konojel ri winaq. Ri winaq xeꞌkikꞌam bꞌik ri e kiyawabꞌibꞌ jawjeꞌ ri kꞌo wi ri Jesús.
36 and they begged him that they might just touch the fringe of his garment. As many as touched it were made whole.
Xkita toqꞌobꞌ che ri Jesús, rech kakichap ri uchiꞌ ri umanta. Ri e yawabꞌibꞌ ri xkichap ri uchiꞌ ri umanta ri Jesús, xuꞌtzirik.
