John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Ahoubada Wahei adu leirammi; Wahei adu Tengban Mapuga leiminnarammi amasung Wahei adu Tengban Mapu oirammi.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
Hek houba adudagi houna Wahei adu Tengban Mapuga leiminnarammi.
3 All things were made through him. Without him, nothing was made that has been made.
Ibungo mahakki mapanna Tengban Mapuna pot pumnamak sembikhi; Ibungo mahak yaodana semkhiba khutsem amata leite.
4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
Ibungoda hingba leirammi aduga hingba aduna misinggi mangal oirammi.
5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn’t overcome it.
Mangal aduna amambada ngalle aduga amamba aduna mangal adubu ngamde.
6 There came a man sent from God, whose name was John.
Tengban Mapuna thabirakpa John kouba mi ama leirammi.
7 The same came as a witness, that he might testify about the light, that all might believe through him.
Mi khudingmak mahakki mapanna thajaraknaba, mahakna misingda mangal adugi maramda hainaba lakpani.
8 He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.
Mahak masamakti mangal adu natte adubu mahakti mangal adugi maramda hainanaba lakpani.
9 The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.
Mi khudingmakta mangal pibiba achumba mangal adu taibangpanda laklammi.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world didn’t recognize him.
Wahei adu taibangpanda leirammi, aduga Mapu Ibungona taibangpan asi Ibungo mahakki mapanna sembikhiba oirabasu, taibangpannadi Ibungo mahakpu khanglamde.
11 He came to his own, and those who were his own didn’t receive him.
Ibungo mahakna masagi oiba maphamda laklammi adubu mahakmakki misingna Ibungobu lousillamde.
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:
Adubu mi kharanadi Ibungobu lousinjarammi amadi Ibungobu thajarammi; maram aduna Ibungona makhoida Tengban Mapugi machasing oinaba matik pibire.
13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
Makhoina Tengban Mapugi machasing oirakpa asi mama mapana nattraga mioibagi apambana nattraga mapuroibagi warepna pokpiba adugumba natte adubu Mapu Ibungona pokpibani.
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.
Wahei aduna sayollaktuna thoujal amadi achumbana pik thanduna eikhoigi irakta leibirare. Aduga eikhoina Ibungo mahakki matik mangal haibadi Mapagi amatta ngairaba Macha oibagi matik mangal adu ujare.
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-na Ibungo mahakki maramda hairammi. Mahakna houna hairak-i, “‘Ibungona eigi tungda lengbirakli adubu Ibungo mahakti eina poktringeida hannana leirabani maram asina Ibungona eingondagi henna chao-i,’ haina eina nakhoida haikhiba Ibungo mahak adu asini.”
16 From his fullness we all received grace upon grace.
Athanba thoujalgi pukkei oiriba Ibungo mangondagi yaipha thoujal amagi mathakta yaipha thoujal ama eikhoi pumnamakna phangjare.
17 For the law was given through Moses. Grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ.
Wayel Yathangdi Moses-ki mapanna pibibani adubu thoujal amasung achumbadi Jisu Christtagi mapanna lakpani.
18 No one has seen God at any time. The only born Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, has declared him.
Mi kana amatana Tengban Mapubu kheidounungdasu ukhidri. Adubu Mapaga yamna naknana leiriba amatta ngairaba Machanupa Mapu Ibungona Ibungo mahakpu phongdokle.
19 This is John’s testimony, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, “Who are you?”
Jerusalem-da leiba Jihudisingna, John-bu kanano haina hangnaba purohitsing amasung Levi-singbu John-gi manakta tharaklammi.
20 He declared, and didn’t deny, but he declared, “I am not the Christ.”
Mahakna paokhum piningdaba touramde aduga i-phong phongna sengna hairak-i, “Eidi Christta adu natte.”
21 They asked him, “What then? Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the prophet?” He answered, “No.”
Maduda makhoina hanglak-i, “Adu oirabadi nahak kanano? Nahak Elijah-ra?” John-na khumlak-i, “Ei natte.” Adudagi makhoina hanglak-i, “Adudi Mapu Ibungogi wa phongdokpa maichou ama lakkani haibadu nahakla?” Mahakna khumlak-i, “Natte”
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?”
Aroibada makhoina hairak-i, “Adu oirabadi nahak kanano haibasi eikhoida haibirak-u. Eikhoibu tharakpa makhoising aduda tamlunaba nahakna paokhum amadi pibiyu. Nahakna nasagi maramda kari haijabage?”
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.”
Mapu Ibungogi wa phongdokpa maichou Isaiah-gi waheising sijinnaduna John-na paokhum pirak-i: “Lamjao lamhangda laoriba kanagumba amagi khonjel adu eini: ‘MAPU IBUNGO mahakna chatnanaba lambi adu chumhallu!’”
24 The ones who had been sent were from the Pharisees.
Pharisee kharasu John-gi maphamda tharak-i,
25 They asked him, “Why then do you baptize if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?”
makhoina John-da hanglak-i, “Nahak Christta adusu Elijah adusu Mapu Ibungogi wa phongdokpa maichou adusu nattrabadi karigi nahakna baptize touribano?”
26 John answered them, “I baptize in water, but among you stands one whom you don’t know.
Maduda John-na khumlak-i, “Einadi isingda baptize tou-i adubu nakhoina khangdaba kanagumba ama nakhoigi narakta lepli.
27 He is the one who comes after me, who is preferred before me, whose sandal strap I’m not worthy to loosen.”
Ibungo mahakna eigi tungda lakli aduga eidi Ibungo mahakki sandal mari louthokpa phaoba matik chade.”
28 These things were done in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
John-na baptize toubiba mapham Jordan turen-gi nongpok thangba wangmada leiba Bethany-da masigi thoudok asi thokkhibani.
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!
Mathanggi numitta Jisuna John-gi manakta lakpadu ure maduda John-na hairak-i, “Yeng-u, taibangpanbagi pappu pubiduna louthokpiba Tengban Mapugi Yaomacha adu!
30 This is he of whom I said, ‘After me comes a man who is preferred before me, for he was before me.’
Ibungo asigi maramdani eina haikhibadu, ‘Kanagumba ama eigi tungda lengbirakli, Ibungo mahakti eina poktringeidagi hannana leirabani maramsina Ibungona eingondagi henna chao-i.’
31 I didn’t know him, but for this reason I came baptizing in water, that he would be revealed to Israel.”
Einadi Ibungobu kanano haiba khanglamde adubu eina isingda baptize toubasi Ibungo mahakpu Israel-da phongdoknabani.”
32 John testified, saying, “I have seen the Spirit descending like a dove out of heaven, and it remained on him.
Adudagi John-na sakhi asi pirammi: “Thawai aduna swargadagi khunugumna lengtharaktuna Ibungoda leiba adu eina ure.
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.’
Eibu isingda baptize tounaba thabiba Ibungo mahakna eingonda, ‘Thawai aduna kanagumba amagi mathakta lengtharaktuna leiba nahakna ugani; mahak aduna Thawai Asengbada baptize toubigani,’ haina haibiramdrabadi eina Ibungo mahakpu khanglamloidabani.
34 I have seen and have testified that this is the Son of God.”
Eina madumak ujare aduga Ibungo mahak asi Tengban Mapugi Machanupani haina eina nakhoida hairi.”
35 Again, the next day, John was standing with two of his disciples,
Mathanggi numitta John-na mahakki tung-inba aniga loinana leptuna leirammi.
36 and he looked at Jesus as he walked, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God!”
Jisuna mapham aduda chatpadu ubada mahakna hairak-i, “Yeng-u, Tengban Mapugi Yaomacha adu.”
37 The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
John-na haiba adu mahakki tung-inba aniduna tarabada makhoina Jisugi matung induna chatkhirammi.
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?”
Jisuna leithorakpada makhoina mahakki tung illakliba adu ure maduda Ibungona hanglak-i, “Nakhoi kari pambage?” Maduda makhoina khumlak-i, “Rabbi” (Masigi wahanthokti “Oja Ibungo” haibani), “Ibungo nahak kadaida leibibage?”
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.
Ibungona khumlak-i, “Lak-u aduga nakhoina u-gani.” (Matam adu numit yungba matung pung marimuk tabada oirammi.) Maram aduna makhoina Ibungoga loinana chattuna Ibungona leiba mapham adu ujare aduga numit aduma makhoina Ibungoga loinana leiminnarammi.
40 One of the two who heard John and followed him was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.
John-na haiba adu taduna Jisugi tung inkhiba makhoi anigi marakta amadi Simon Peter-gi manao Andrew-ni.
41 He first found his own brother, Simon, and said to him, “We have found the Messiah!” (which is, being interpreted, Christ).
Andrew-na ihan hanna mahakki mayamba Simon-bu thiraga mangonda hairammi, “Eikhoina Messiah adu phangjare.” (Madudi “Christta” haibani)
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).
Adudagi mahakna Simon-bu Jisugi manakta purakle. Jisuna Simon-da yenglaga hairak-i, “Nahakti John-gi machanupa Simon-ni, adubu nahakki naming Cephas kougani.” (Masigi wahanthokti “Peter” haibani.)
43 On the next day, he was determined to go out into Galilee, and he found Philip. Jesus said to him, “Follow me.”
Mathanggi numitta Galilee-da Jisuna chatke leple. Ibungona Philip-pu thengnarabada mangonda hairak-i, “Eigi itung illak-u!”
44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
(Andrew amadi Peter-gumna Philip-su Bethsaida sahardagini.)
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.”
Philip-na Nathanael-bu phanglabada mangonda hairammi, “Moses-na Wayel Yathangda amasung Mapu Ibungogi wa phongdokpa maichousingnasu ibiramba mahak adu eikhoina phangle. Mahak adudi Joseph-ki machanupa, Nazareth-ki Jisuni.”
46 Nathanael said to him, “Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?” Philip said to him, “Come and see.”
Nathanael-na hanglak-i, “Nazareth-tagibu karigumba aphaba thorakpa ngambra?” Maduda Philip-na khumlak-i, “Laktuna yeng-u.”
47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said about him, “Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!”
Mahakki manakta Nathanael-na lakpadu urabada Jisuna mangonda hairak-i, “Mapham asida tasengba Israel-gi mi ama leire; mangonda lounamba leite.”
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.”
Nathanael-na Ibungoda hanglak-i, “Ibungona eibu karamna khangbibage?” Maduda Jisuna paokhum pirak-i, “Philip-na nahakpu koudringeida, nahakna heiyit pambi makhada leiba matam aduda eina nangbu ure.”
49 Nathanael answered him, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are King of Israel!”
Nathanael-na khumlak-i, “Oja Ibungo, nahak Tengban Mapugi Machanupa aduni! Nahak Israel-gi Ningthouni!”
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!”
Jisuna mangonda hairak-i, “Nahakna heiyit pambi makhada leiringeida eina nangbu ure haina eina nangonda haibagi maramna nahakna thajaribra? Masidagi henna chaoba thabaksing nahakna ukhigani.”
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.”
Adudagi Ibungona makha tarak-i, “Eina nakhoida tasengnamak hairiba asini, swarga hangdokpa amadi Tengban Mapugi dutsingna Migi Machanupa adugi mathakta kakhat khumtha touba adu nakhoina ugani.”
