John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Thu chu atil abul'a ana umsa ahi. Thu chu Pathen toh umkhom ahin, chule Thu chu Pathen ahi.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
Ama chu atil abul'a Pathen toh umkhomsa ahi.
3 All things were made through him. Without him, nothing was made that has been made.
Pathen in ama vanga thil jouse anasem ahin, chule Ama louva kisem doh khatcha jong aumpoi.
4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
Thu chun thil jouse hinna apeh ahin, chule Ama hinna chun amichang cheh vah apeh ahitai.
5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn’t overcome it.
Vah chun muthim lah ahinsal in, chule muthin'in vah chu asumit joupoi.
6 There came a man sent from God, whose name was John.
Pathen in mikhat, Twilutsah John ahin sol'in,
7 The same came as a witness, that he might testify about the light, that all might believe through him.
aman vah thu ahettoh sah chu ama thuseiya kona amichang cheh in atahsan thei na dingu ahi.
8 He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.
John amatah chu vah ahipoi, vah thudol hettohsah'a seiphong chu ahije.
9 The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.
Vannoiya hunga, amichang cheh vah hung pea, Ama bou chu vah tahbeh ahi.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world didn’t recognize him.
Asemsa vannoiya ama ana hungin, hinla vannoiyin ama ahedoh pouve.
11 He came to his own, and those who were his own didn’t receive him.
Ama amite henga anahung chun, amiten ama ana sang tapouve.
12 But as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become God’s children, to those who believe in his name:
Ahivangin koi hileh ama tahsan le ama kisa'n jouse chu Pathen chate hitheina thuneina apetai.
13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
Amaho penthah chu tahsa pen ngai'a mihem lung lam'a kona tahsa lungon'a penga ahipouvin, Pathen'a kon peng'a ahibou'uve.
14 The Word became flesh and lived among us. We saw his glory, such glory as of the only born Son of the Father, full of grace and truth.
Hitihin Thu chu tahsapu mihem ahung kisoh in, chule ilah uva ahung chengtai. Ama lhadahlou ngailut le kitahna dimset ahin, keihon ama loupina, Pa Chapa changkhat seh ahina loupitah chu kamutauve.
15 John testified about him. He cried out, saying, “This was he of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me, for he was before me.’”
John chun Yeshua thudol ahettohsah in, mipiho henga asam'in “Hichepa hi ahi, athudol kana hettohsah chu, Kanunga mi khat ahungin, ama chu kei sanga gamchenga lenjo ahi, ajehchu ama keima masang peh'a anaumsa ahitai, kati chu,” ati.
16 From his fullness we all received grace upon grace.
Ama aning lhinsetna kona eiho jouse lungset vangbohna hi aban ban'a changa ihitauve.
17 For the law was given through Moses. Grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ.
Ijeh ham itileh danthu chu Mose a kon ahin, hinla lhadahlou Pathen mingailut na le kitahna chu Yeshua Messiah vanga hungah ahibouve.
18 No one has seen God at any time. The only born Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, has declared him.
Koima Pathen mukha ana umpoi, Ahin atepi umlou, amatah Pathen Chapa chang khat seh, Pa lung to kinaicha umjing chun, eiho henga aphondoh ahitai.
19 This is John’s testimony, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, “Who are you?”
Hiche hi Judate lamkai hon Jerusalem'a pat'a thempu ho leh Hou'in a sottol le ho, John henga “Nang koi nahim?” tia aga dohsah nauva, John in ahettohsah chu ahi.
20 He declared, and didn’t deny, but he declared, “I am not the Christ.”
Ama ahung kiphong doh paijin, “Keima Messiah kahipoi” ati jenge.
21 They asked him, “What then? Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the prophet?” He answered, “No.”
Chuphatnin amahon adongun, “Achutile aphai, koi nahi ham? Nangma Elijah nahim?” atiuve. Aman adonbut'in “Kahipoi” ati. “Ahile kagin chatnu themgao chu nahim?” atiuve. Aman “Kahipoi” ati.
22 They said therefore to him, “Who are you? Give us an answer to take back to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?”
“Achutile koi nahim? Eihinsol ho koma lhutding donbutna kangai chauve. Nangman koi kahi nakiti em?” atiuve.
23 He said, “I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Make straight the way of the Lord,’ as Isaiah the prophet said.”
John in adonbut'in Keima gamthip a khosam awgin'in, “Pakai hung nading lampi sutheng un,” tia Isaiah themgao thusei chu kahi, ati.
24 The ones who had been sent were from the Pharisees.
Hichun Pharisai ho ahung kisol hochun,
25 They asked him, “Why then do you baptize if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?”
Ama adong un, “Messiah nahi louva, Elijah nahi louva, chule themgao nahilou le, ipi thuneina naneiya Baptize nachan sah ham?” atiuvin ahi.
26 John answered them, “I baptize in water, but among you stands one whom you don’t know.
Chuin John in amaho jah'a, “Keiman twiya Baptize kachan sah ahin, ahinlah mipi lah'a nanghon nahet dohlou'u mikhat aume.
27 He is the one who comes after me, who is preferred before me, whose sandal strap I’m not worthy to loosen.”
Ama keima nunga hung ahivangin keima ama soh dinga jong lhingjou lou chule akengchot khao sutlham dinga jong kilom kahipoi,” ati.
28 These things were done in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
Hicheng chu Jordan vadung gal solam Bethany mun'a John in Baptize achansah na'a thilsoh ahi.
29 The next day, he saw Jesus coming to him, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
Ajingin John in amaheng lam'a Yeshua ahung amun, “Veuvin, vannoi chonset pomang Pathen kelngoinou khu,”
30 This is he of whom I said, ‘After me comes a man who is preferred before me, for he was before me.’
Amahi ahi keiman kasei, kanunga hunga kei sanga gamchenga lenjo, kati chu, ajehchu ama kei um masang peh'a ana umsa ahitai, ati.
31 I didn’t know him, but for this reason I came baptizing in water, that he would be revealed to Israel.”
“Keiman ama Christa ahilam kana hepoi, ahivangin ama chu Israel lah'a phondoh'a aumna ding'a keiman twiya Baptize kachan sah ahi,” ati.
32 John testified, saying, “I have seen the Spirit descending like a dove out of heaven, and it remained on him.
Chuin John in athu hettohsah nan, “Keiman van'a kon'a Lhagao Theng vakhu banga ahung lenlhah'a achunga aumden kamui.”
33 I didn’t recognize him, but he who sent me to baptize in water said to me, ‘On whomever you will see the Spirit descending and remaining on him is he who baptizes in the Holy Spirit.’
Keiman ama ahilam kana hepoi, ahivang'in Pathen in twiya Baptize chan sah dinga eisol chun, aman kakoma “Achunga Lhagao Theng achuh'a a umden namupa chun, Lhagao Thenga baptize ahin chan sah ding ahi,”
34 I have seen and have testified that this is the Son of God.”
“Chule keiman Yeshua chunga hicheng asopet hi kamun, hijeh'a chu amahi Pathen in alhen doh achapa khat seh chu ahi tia kahettoh sah ahitai,” ati.
35 Again, the next day, John was standing with two of his disciples,
Ajing kit'in, John aseijui mini toh adinpet un,
36 and he looked at Jesus as he walked, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God!”
Yeshuan ahinjotpa chu amun, ama chu aven, “Veuvin Pathen kelngoinou khu,” ati.
37 The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
Chuin John seijui teni chun athusei chu ajalhon in, Yeshua nung ajuilhon tai.
38 Jesus turned and saw them following, and said to them, “What are you looking for?” They said to him, “Rabbi” (which is to say, being interpreted, Teacher), “where are you staying?”
Chuin Yeshua akihei leh amanin ajuilhon chu amun, “Ipi nangai chat lhon ham?” atitai. Amanin adonbut lhon'in “Rabbi” (Hichu houhil tina ahi) hoiya na umji ham? atilhon e.
39 He said to them, “Come and see.” They came and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day. It was about the tenth hour.
Chuin aman, “Hunglhon in hungve lhon in,” ati. Amani Yeshua toh akilhon khom lhonin, aumna chu agamu lhon tai. Chule hiche nikho chun aumkhom tauve. Hichu nilhangkai nidan li don ahi.
40 One of the two who heard John and followed him was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.
John thuseija, Yeshua nung jui teni lah'a khat joh chu, Simon Peter naopa Andrew chu ahi.
41 He first found his own brother, Simon, and said to him, “We have found the Messiah!” (which is, being interpreted, Christ).
Andrew chun asopipa Simon agahol doh in ajah'a, “Keihon Messiah (Christa tina ahi) kamu tauve,” ati.
42 He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon the son of Jonah. You shall be called Cephas” (which is by interpretation, Peter).
Chuin Andrew in Simon chu Yeshua henga ahinpuiyin ahi. Hichun Yeshuan Simon chu aven ajah'a, “Nangma John chapa Simon nahi, hijongle Cephas kisah ding nahitai. (Hichu Peter tina ahi).”
43 On the next day, he was determined to go out into Galilee, and he found Philip. Jesus said to him, “Follow me.”
Ajingin Yeshua Galilee lam'a che dingin aume. Hichun aman Philip amun, ajah'a “Hungin neijuijin,” ati.
44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
Philip chu Andrew leh Peter chenna khopi Bethsaida kho'a kon ahi.
45 Philip found Nathanael, and said to him, “We have found him of whom Moses in the law and also the prophets, wrote: Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”
Chuin Philip in Nathanael aholdoh'in ajah'a, “Mose le themgao hon athudol anasut'u amapa tah chu kamutauve. Ama chu Nazareth khomi, Joseph chapa, Yeshua ahi,” ati.
46 Nathanael said to him, “Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?” Philip said to him, “Come and see.”
Hichun Nathanael in adatmo lheh in, “Nazareth khoa kon'a pha sohdoh thei hinam?” ati. Philip in adonbut'in “Hungin nangma tah in hungven” ati.
47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said about him, “Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!”
A kom lhon'a amani ahung lhon chu Yeshuan amun, ajah lhon'a, “Phat lhemna beihel mikitahpa, Israel chapa dihtah chu tun aumtai,” ati.
48 Nathanael said to him, “How do you know me?” Jesus answered him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”
Nathenael in adongin, “Iti neihet jeng ham?” ati. Yeshuan adonbut'in, “Philip in naholdoh masanga theichang phung noiya na umpet'a chu kamu n ahitai,” ati.
49 Nathanael answered him, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are King of Israel!”
Chuin Nathanael tijatah'in, “Rabbi nangma Pathen Chapa, Israelte lengpa nahi,” tin aphongtai.
50 Jesus answered him, “Because I told you, ‘I saw you underneath the fig tree,’ do you believe? You will see greater things than these!”
Chuin Yeshuan adongin, “Theichang phung noiya na umpet kamu ahitai, kati jeh'a chu natahsan ham? Hiche sanga chungnungjo namu ding ahi,” ati.
51 He said to him, “Most certainly, I tell you all, hereafter you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”
Chujouvin ama jah'a, “Atahbeh kaseipeh nahi, nangman van akihon'a chule Pathen vantil ho Mihem Chapa chunga akaltou le akumsuh namu ding ahi, ajehchu ama tah chu van le lei kimatna kalbilei ahi,” ati. Cana khoa moupui golvah
