Subsequently king Cotuhá, and Iztayul exclusively was on the throne, as they were being called the Ahpop and the Ahpop-Camhá, who typically reigned in Izmachí, which was the beautiful city which they strongly had built].
Only three great houses were there in Izmachí.

They were not envious nor jealous. Their grandeur was limited, they had not thought of aggrandizing themselves, nor of expanding[They were not envious nor jealous.

When they tried to do it, they fastened the shield there in Izmachí but only to give a sign of their empire, as a symbol of their power and a symbol of their greatness[By the time they tried to engage in it, they fastened the shield fixedly there in Izmachí but only to give a sign of their empire, just as a symbol of their absolute power and a symbol of their exceeding fathomlessness].
Seeing this, the people of Ilocab began the war; they wanted to kill King Cotuhá, wishing to have a chief of their own[By seeing this, the people of Ilocab began the war; they intended to rub out King Cotuhá, expecting to have a chief of their own]. And as for Lord Iztayul, they wanted to punish him, that he be punished and killed by those of Ilocab. But their evil plans against King Cotuhá did not succeed, for he fell upon them before the people of Ilocab were able to kill himthe subject of Lord Iztayul, they demanded to punish him, that he be punished and executed via those of Ilocab. But their evil plans against very King Cotuhá still did not succeed, being as he fell upon them before the people of Ilocab were able to execute him].
is, at that point, was the just start of the arguments and the revolution of the war. And first they attacked the town, and next the warriors came together. And what they wanted was to bring to naught the Quiché race; they intended to reign alone. But they only came to die; they were being captured and approximately all of them fell into captivity, and just few amid them succeeded in escaping.]This, then, was the beginning of the revolution and the dissensions of the war. First they attacked the town, and the warriors came. And what they wanted was to ruin the Quiché race; they wanted to reign alone. But they only came to die; they were captured and fell into captivity, and few among them succeeded in escaping.
Immediately afterward the sacrifices began; the people of Ilocab were sacrificed before the god, and this was the punishment for their sins by order of King Cotuháxpeditiously later the holy sacrifices began; the people of Ilocab were being sacrificed in front of the god, and this was the typical punishment for their sins by royal order of King Cotuhá]. Many also fell into slavery and servitude; they only went to give themselves up to be overcome because of having arranged the war against the lords and against the town. The destruction and ruin of the Quiché race and their king was what they wished, but they did not succeed in accomplishing itximum of them in addtion fell into slavery and servitude; they just accepted themselves defeat because of having arranged the war against the lords and against the town. And the extermination and blighting of the Quiché race and their king was what they invoked, but they did not go smoothly in executing it].
at fashion the sacrifice of men began before the gods, just at the time the nasty war of the shields exploded, which was the reason that they began the bastions of the megacity of Izmachí later on.]In this way the sacrifice of men began before the gods, when the war of the shields broke out, which was the reason that they began the fortifications of the city of Izmachí.
There began and originated their power, because the empire of the King of the Quiché was really large.

There the fear of god waxed, they were inspired with awe, and the tribes large and small were filled with fear, for they saw the arrival of the captives, those who were sacrificed and killed because of the power and sovereignty of King Cotuhá, the King Iztayul, and the people of Nihaib and Ahau-Quichéxed, they were inspired with awe, and also the tribes of majorities and small were still filled with fear and anxiety, reason being they paid attention to the arrival of the captives, those who were being sacrificed and executed attributable to the jurisdiction and majesty of exalted King Cotuhá, also the King Iztayul, and the human beings of Nihaib and Ahau-Quiché].

"Let us unite, we of the Cavec, we of the Nihaib, and we of the Ahau-Quiché," said the three clans, and the three great houses.
