Joʼkan naq, maajunwa tqakanabʼ xyeebʼal re li Jehobʼa chanru naqekʼa qibʼ ut li naqaj (Sal. 62:9). Joʼkan ajwiʼ, qatzʼaamaq re naq twanq qakuyum ut qanaʼlebʼ (Sant. 1:5). Laj John c, jun li hermaan re Estados Unidos naxye li naxpatzʼ re li Jehobʼa: «Ninye re li Jehobʼa li nawoybʼeni rikʼin jun li hermaan ut nintzʼaama re naq tixkʼe ribʼ chiwu  li hoonal re xnawbʼal ru anihaq. Ut naq tixkʼe innaʼlebʼ re naq chaabʼil tinnaʼlebʼaq joʼ bʼeelomej». Li xTania, jun li hermaan re Sri Lanka, naxye: «Nintzʼaama re li Jehobʼa naq tinxtenqʼa re naq tiik ru linchʼool ut sahaq saʼ inchʼool toj reetal tintaw ani us choʼq we». Wi tnumeʼq li kutan ut maajiʼ nakaataw anihaq, chʼolchʼo naq li Jehobʼa tixkʼe li naʼajmank chaawu re naq us wanqat (Sal. 55:23).
