< Philippians 2 >

1 If therefore there is any exhortation in Messiah, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any tender mercies and compassion,
We ri Cristo uyaꞌom ichuqꞌabꞌ rech kiꞌtaqchiꞌj nikꞌaj chik, xuqujeꞌ we ri iloqꞌanik kixutaqchiꞌj chukubꞌisaxik kikꞌuꞌx nikꞌaj chik, xuqujeꞌ we iwonojel xa jun Uxlabꞌal ixukꞌaꞌninaq xuqujeꞌ we kel ikꞌuꞌx chike nikꞌaj chik,
2 make my joy full by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind;
chininojisaj che kiꞌkotemal, chijunamaj ikꞌuꞌx, chijunamaj ri iloqꞌanik, xuqujeꞌ chijunamaj ri iwanimaꞌ xuqujeꞌ ri ichomabꞌal.
3 doing nothing through rivalry or through conceit, but in humility, each counting others better than himself;
Mibꞌan jun jastaq rukꞌ nimal o xa rumal kiwaj kitzukuj chꞌoꞌj, xane chibꞌana rukꞌ mochꞌochꞌem, chiꞌwilaꞌ chi are e nimaꞌq ri nikꞌaj chik chiꞌwach.
4 each of you not just looking to his own things, but each of you also to the things of others.
Man xwi ta kiwilij ri jastaq ri kajawataj chiꞌwe ix pa ijujunal, xane chiwila xuqujeꞌ ri kirajawaxik ri nikꞌaj chik.
5 Have this in your mind, which was also in Messiah Yeshua,
Ri inoꞌjibꞌal rajawaxik je kuxik jetaq ri rech ri Cristo Jesús,
6 who, existing in the form of God, didn’t consider equality with God a thing to be grasped,
ri areꞌ, pune are Dios, man xukoj ta uchuqꞌabꞌ chubꞌixik chi tzi are wi Dios.
7 but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men.
Xane xubꞌan nitzꞌ chibꞌil ribꞌ jeꞌ jas jun ajchak, xalax pa ri uwachulew jetaq jun winaq, xuqujeꞌ xubꞌan achi chibꞌil ribꞌ.
8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself, becoming obedient to the point of death, yes, the death of the cross.
Are xubꞌan achi chibꞌil ribꞌ, xumochꞌ ribꞌ, xnimanik xeꞌ kꞌa pa ri kamikal, kamikal cho ri ripbꞌal.
9 Therefore God also highly exalted him, and gave to him the name which is above every name,
Rumal riꞌ, ri Dios xuya nimalaj uqꞌij, xuya ri bꞌiꞌaj che puꞌwiꞌ ronojel bꞌiꞌaj.
10 that at the name of Yeshua every knee should bow, of those in heaven, those on earth, and those under the earth,
Rech jeriꞌ kakimej kichꞌek choch konojel ri e kꞌo pa ri kaj, ri e kꞌo choch ri uwachulew xuqujeꞌ ri e kꞌo chuxeꞌ ri uwachulew.
11 and that every tongue should confess that Yeshua the Messiah is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Xuqujeꞌ rech konojel kakiqꞌalajisaj rukꞌ ri kichiꞌ chi are ri Jesucristo Ajawxel rech jeriꞌ kayaꞌtaj uqꞌij ri Dios Tataxel.
12 So then, my beloved, even as you have always obeyed, not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
Xaq jeriꞌ, loqꞌalaj taq qachalal, rumal cher amaqꞌel kixniman chwe, man xwi ta are in kꞌo iwukꞌ, xane are man in kꞌo ta iwukꞌ, chiwukꞌaj ri ikolotajem rukꞌ mochꞌoj ibꞌ xuqujeꞌ rukꞌ nimanik.
13 For it is God who works in you both to will and to work for his good pleasure.
Jeriꞌ rumal cher are ri Dios kabꞌanow chiꞌwe chi kixnimanik xuqujeꞌ kiwaj kibꞌan ronojel ri jastaq rech kibꞌano ri urayibꞌal ukꞌuꞌx.
14 Do all things without complaining and arguing,
Chibꞌana ri jastaq man rukꞌ ta chꞌaoj ibꞌ xuqujeꞌ man rukꞌ ta oyawal.
15 that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without defect in the middle of a crooked and perverse generation, amongst whom you are seen as lights in the world,
Jeriꞌ qas ixchꞌajchꞌoj man kꞌo ta imak, rumal cher ix, ix ralkꞌwaꞌl ri Dios, ri ix kꞌo chikixoꞌl ri winaq ri aꞌjmakibꞌ, ri man kꞌyaqal taj kechomanik. Ix kꞌo chikixoꞌl we winaq riꞌ, jetaq ri chꞌumil ri kachuplinik cho ri kaj.
16 holding up the word of life, that I may have something to boast in the day of Messiah that I didn’t run in vain nor labour in vain.
Are chiwilij uqꞌalajisaxik ri tzij rech kꞌaslemal. Rech jeriꞌ are kuriq ri upetibꞌal ri Cristo, kakiꞌkot na kꞌuꞌx are kinwetaꞌmaj chi man xaq ta xintzaq ri nuchuqꞌabꞌ, xuqujeꞌ man xaq ta xinchakun chi jeriꞌ.
17 Yes, and if I am poured out on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I am glad and rejoice with you all.
Pune kesax na ri nukꞌaslemal xuqujeꞌ katzuj na jetaq jun sipanik xa rumal ri ikojobꞌal, kinkiꞌkotik na riꞌ xuqujeꞌ kawaj chi kixkiꞌkot na ix wukꞌ.
18 In the same way, you also should be glad and rejoice with me.
Ix xuqujeꞌ, chixkiꞌkotoq, xuqujeꞌ chiya we ri ikiꞌkotemal.
19 But I hope in the Lord Yeshua to send Timothy to you soon, that I also may be cheered up when I know how you are doing.
Kinwayeꞌj che ri Ajawxel Jesús kinkwinik kintaq bꞌik ri Timoteo iwukꞌ rech jeriꞌ kinkꞌamawaꞌj nuchuqꞌabꞌ are kinwetaꞌmaj jas jeꞌ ibꞌanom.
20 For I have no one else like-minded, who will truly care about you.
Ri Timoteo sibꞌalaj kꞌax ukꞌuꞌx chiꞌwe, rumal cher kixuloqꞌaj jetaq ri kinbꞌan in.
21 For they all seek their own, not the things of Yeshua the Messiah.
Konojel ri nikꞌaj xaq are kakilij ri jastaq ri kajawataj chike, man are ta kakilij ri karaj ri Jesucristo.
22 But you know that he has proved himself. As a child serves a father, so he served with me in furtherance of the Good News.
Ix iwetaꞌm uwach ri Timoteo, sibꞌalaj utz ri kanoꞌjinik, ubꞌanom ri patanijik wukꞌ chuqꞌalajisaxik ri utz laj tzij, je ri kꞌo jun alkꞌwaꞌlaxel ri sibꞌalaj utz kanoꞌjinik che ri utat.
23 Therefore I hope to send him at once, as soon as I see how it will go with me.
Kawaj kꞌut kintaq bꞌik aninaq iwukꞌ, xwi wayeꞌm kinwetaꞌmaj jas kakꞌulmataj wukꞌ.
24 But I trust in the Lord that I myself also will come shortly.
Kuꞌl na kꞌuꞌx chirij ri Ajawxel chi kineꞌ xuqujeꞌ na in, kixeꞌnwilaꞌ.
25 But I thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, fellow worker, fellow soldier, and your emissary and servant of my need,
Xuqujeꞌ xinchomaj chi utz kubꞌan chiꞌwe we kintaq bꞌik ri Epafrodito iwukꞌ, areꞌ jun alaxik xuqujeꞌ jun tobꞌanel, wachiꞌl pa taq ri nuchꞌoꞌj, are waꞌ ri xitaq loq chinupatanixik.
26 since he longed for you all, and was very troubled because you had heard that he was sick.
Ri Epafrodito sibꞌalaj kixubꞌisoj xuqujeꞌ kꞌax ranimaꞌ chiꞌwe xiwetaꞌmaj waꞌ chi yawabꞌ.
27 For indeed he was sick nearly to death, but God had mercy on him, and not on him only, but on me also, that I might not have sorrow on sorrow.
Qas ne tzij wi xyawajik, jubꞌiqꞌ xraj xkamik. Ri Dios kꞌut xel ukꞌuꞌx che, man xwi taj xel ukꞌuꞌx che areꞌ xane xel xuqujeꞌ ukꞌuꞌx chwe in, rech jeriꞌ man xnimataj ta ri nubꞌis.
28 I have sent him therefore the more diligently, that when you see him again, you may rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.
Rumal riꞌ kintaq chi bꞌi iwukꞌ rech kixkiꞌkot chi junmul we chiwil uwach, rech xuqujeꞌ man kakꞌaxir ta chi wanimaꞌ in.
29 Receive him therefore in the Lord with all joy, and hold such people in honour,
Chikꞌamawaꞌj pa ri Ajawxel, rukꞌ kiꞌkotemal xuqujeꞌ nim chiꞌwila ri je kenoꞌjinik jetaq ri areꞌ.
30 because for the work of Messiah he came near to death, risking his life to supply that which was lacking in your service towards me.
Jeriꞌ rumal jubꞌiqꞌ xraj xkamik rumal ri uchak ri Cristo, xuya ri ukꞌaslemal rech xubꞌan ri patanijik ri man xixkwin ta ix xibꞌano.
