God is good. He is the light of<br />
our lives. O God the Creator<br />
whose word is good, Father and<br />
guardian, be established and<br />
manifest in the cross, to the<br />
sorrow of the yearbearer priests<br />
beyond the ceiba. This is the<br />
Sole God of the Itza. Worship<br />
Him on high with true faith as<br />
the True God. Enter into the<br />
word of your Redeemer, O Itza,<br />
now. Love one another, I say, for<br />
that is God's word. 1 shall unite<br />
it in 1647. (4038)<br />

Good is the word of God<br />
Which is coming before us,<br />
Coming to begin the words,<br />
The sun of our lives here.<br />
3995 Do not frighten the world, Father,<br />
Thou, Sole God, created us.<br />
Good is the news—<br />
The word of God,<br />
The Father,<br />
4000 (Guardian of our souls).<br />
Establish his grace on high;<br />
Establish it<br />
And manifest its change.<br />
Establish his standing tree<br />
4005 To pain his replacement,<br />
The believer in change:<br />
The change behind the ceiba land<br />
Placed as a change in the field<br />
That is the blessed Sole God on high<br />
4010 Who is come.<br />
That is your God,<br />
O ye Itza.<br />
Worship the replacement<br />
Of the powerful God<br />
4015 Rising to heaven.<br />
Let us worship him<br />
With true devotion;<br />
Let us worship him<br />
Our True God.<br />
4020 Enter yourselves<br />
Into the word of the Sole God<br />
Who is come<br />
To raise your spokesman<br />
And resurrect your hearts,<br />
4025 O Itza,<br />
That the earth may be awakened<br />
By those who are brought to his heart<br />
In the period of this katun's return.<br />
Love one another<br />
4030 Is my word,<br />
Mine<br />
As Spokesman of the Jaguar.<br />
For I am recounting<br />
The word of the True God.<br />
4035 I shall unite<br />
And assemble it on earth<br />
In the ninth year's time<br />
Of him who is again 1 Ahau.<br />
4038. That is, 1647, possibly the date of the composition of this text.
