B'resheet ·In the beginning of the beginning· was ha D'var ·the Word·, and ha D'var ·the Word· was with God, and ha D'var ·the Word· was God.

The same was in the beginning with God.

All things came to be through him and without him nothing made had being.
4 Thu chun thil jouse hinna apeh ahin, chule Ama hinna chun amichang cheh vah apeh ahitai.
In him was life, and the life was the light of men.

The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

There came a man, sent from God, whose name was John [Yah is gracious].

The same came as a witness, that he might testify about the light, that all might believe through him.

He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.
9 Vannoiya hunga, amichang cheh vah hung pea, Ama bou chu vah tahbeh ahi.
The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.
10 Asemsa vannoiya ama ana hungin, hinla vannoiyin ama ahedoh pouve.
He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world didn’t recognize him.
11 Ama amite henga anahung chun, amiten ama ana sang tapouve.
He came to his own, and those who were his own didn’t receive him.
12 Ahivangin koi hileh ama tahsan le ama kisa'n jouse chu Pathen chate hitheina thuneina apetai.
But as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become God’s children, to those who believe in his name:
13 Amaho penthah chu tahsa pen ngai'a mihem lung lam'a kona tahsa lungon'a penga ahipouvin, Pathen'a kon peng'a ahibou'uve.
who were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

Ha D'var ·The Word· became flesh, and tabernacled among us. We saw his shekhinah ·manifest weighty glory and presence of God·, such shekhinah ·manifest weighty glory and presence of God· as of the one and only Son of the Abba ·Father·, full of grace and truth.

John [Yah is gracious] 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.’”
16 Ama aning lhinsetna kona eiho jouse lungset vangbohna hi aban ban'a changa ihitauve.
From his fullness we all received grace upon grace.

For the Torah ·Teaching· was given through Moses [Drawn out]; grace and truth came through Yeshua Messiah [Salvation Anointed one].
18 Koima Pathen mukha ana umpoi, Ahin atepi umlou, amatah Pathen Chapa chang khat seh, Pa lung to kinaicha umjing chun, eiho henga aphondoh ahitai.
No one has seen God at any time. The one and only Son, who is in the bosom of Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad·, he has declared him.

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?”

They asked him, “Why then do you baptize, if you are not the Messiah [Anointed one], nor Elijah [My God Yah], nor the prophet?”
