John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Mongrep maang dongsiitka di, Rangte Jengkhaap ah eje angta; heh Rangte damdi angta, eno Jengkhaap ah Rangte angta.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
Ephangdong dowa ih Jengkhaap ah Rangte damdi angta.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
Rangte ih jirep ah heh jun ih dongsiitta; jaatrep dongsiitta dowa esiit taan uh heh jun ih ladongka rah tajeeka.
4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
Jengkhaap ah roidong choh lampo angta, eno roidong erah ih mina raangtaan ih weephaak thukta.
5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
Weephaak ah rangnak khoni phaakta, eno rangnak ih erah weephaak ah mabah uh tajen met siitta.
6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
Rangte ih weephaak tiit ah mina suh baat thuksuh, mih wasiit Joon ngeh ih kongphaak kotte kaat thukta,
7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.
tiimnge liidi, heh tiitkhaap ah loongtang ih chaat rum ano hanpi toom ih rum ah.
8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.
Heh teewah bah amiisak di weephaak tah angta; weephaak tiit ah ba baatkaat taha.
9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.
Erah baatta langla amiisak weephaak ah angta, erah weephaak ah arah mongrep adi ra haano mina loongtang suh kaangtook koha.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
Jengkhaap ah langla arah mongrep adi angta, arah mongrep ah Rangte ih heh mendi hoonta bah uh, arah mongrep dowa mina ih tasamjat rumta.
11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
Heh teewah deek akaan ni ra taha, erabah uh heh miloong ah ih heh jeng ah takap rumta.
12 But as many as accepted him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
Enoothong, o mina ih heh jeng ah kap ih rum ano hanpi rumta, erah miloong ah Rangte suh asah eh hoon suh epun e ah.
13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
Neng loong ah Rangte sah ih hoonta, mina hansi nuh awah nawa tup arah tah angta; Rangte ah neng loong raangtaan ih neng Wah eh hoonta.
14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, ( and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, ) full of grace and truth.
Jengkhaap ah mina eh donghoonta eno minchan nyia amiisak pan angta, seng loong damdi roong songtong taha. Heh rangka ah seng ih tup eti, erah rangka ah Hewah jiin nawa Hesah heh luulu ang thoidi choha.
15 John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.
Joon ih heh tiit baatta adoh erongrongwah ih riibaatta, “Arah tiit ah ngah ih amah kabaat rum taha, ‘Heh nga lidoh raaha, enoothong nga nang ih heh elong ang ah, tiimnge liidi ngah maang tup diidook heh eje angta.’”
16 And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.
Heh jiinni minchan ehan je thoidi loongtang suh romseetam koh hali, seng loong asuh esiit esiit suh romseetam koh hali.
17 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.
Rangte ih Moses jun ih Hootthe kota, enoothong minchan nyia amiisak tiit ah Jisu Kristo jun ih koh hali.
18 No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.
Rangte ah oh ih uh tathaak tupka. Rangte reeni Hewah tooto ih tongla, Hesah asuh luulu ba jatthuk ha.
19 And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou?
Jerusalem dowa Jehudi ngoong awang loong ah ih romwah nyia Lewi nok hah marah marah loong ah Joon reeni kaat thuk rum ano, chengkaat thuk rumta, “An o anglu?”
20 And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ.
Joon ih neng suh ngaakbaat ah tah daanta, enoothong neng suh saasa ih dokbaat rumta, Heh ih baat rumta: [Ngah Kristo tah angkang.]
21 And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elijah? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that prophet? And he answered, No.
[Eno bah, an ah o anglu?] Neng ih ngaak chengta. [An Elija tam ah?] “Tah angkang,” Joon ih ngaakbaat rumta. “An Khowah tam anglu?” Neng loong ah ih ngaakcheng rumta. “Tah angkang,” Joon ih ngaakbaat rumta.
22 Then said they unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself?
“Eno bah an ah o anglu baat he,” neng loong ah ih cheng rumta. “Seng daap kaatte loong asuh an o anglu erah tiit ah ngaakbaat wantheng. An teewah suh an ih tiimjih li hu?]
23 He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Isaiah.
Khowah Isaia Jengkhaap ah baat ano ngaak jengta; [Phisang hah mong ni riila root ah langla ngah; Teesu lengkhoom suh lamjun in ban tan an!]
24 And they which were sent were of the Pharisees.
Pharisi nok hah, ih kaat thukta kongphaak kotte, loong ah ih
25 And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elijah, neither that prophet?
Joon suh cheng rumta, [An Kristo uh tah angko, Elija uh tah angko adoleh Khowah uh tah angko, eno bah juutem ah mamah ih temhu?]
26 John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not;
Joon ih ngaakbaat rumta, [Ngah ih ju nawa ih juutem rumhala, enoothong sengdung ni wasiit chapla ah sen ih tajatkan.
27 He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe’s latchet I am not worthy to unloose.
Erah mih ah nga lih ni ra hala, enoothong ngah bah heh lakhoop adoleh heh lasong khook haattha uh taluikang.]
28 These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing.
Arah tiit ah Bethani ni Joon ih Jordan ju saadongko ni juutemta erah di roongwaan rumta.
29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.
Erah saalih adi Jisu heh taang ni wangha rah Joon ih japtup ano, liita, [Rangte Saapsah ah arah, arah mongrep dowa rangdah saasiitte ah erah wang hala!
30 This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me.
Ngah roongwaan tahang adi arah warah tiit laangbo baat rum taha, ngah ih amah baat rum taha, ‘Nga lidoh mih wasiit raaha, enoothong heh ngah nang ih elong, tiimnge liidi heh ngah maang tupdoh heh eje angta.’
31 And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water.
Ngah ih heh o ang ah ngeh ih tah jattang, enoothong, heh ah Ijirel noksong ih toomjat rum ah ngeh ih juutem ra tahang.]
32 And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.
Eno Joon ih heteewah tiitkhaap tiit baat rumta: [Ngah ih Chiiala ah wotuupi likhiik rang nawa ra haano heh sakkhoh ni dangra ha rah tuptang.
33 And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.
Erabah uh ngah ih tajattang heh o angla. Enoothong juutem kaat thuk tahang Rangte ah ih baat tahang, ‘An ih Chiiala ra haano mih wasiit sak nah tong raaha rah japtup uh; Esa Chiiala nawa ih juutemte warah heh ang ah.’
34 And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.
Ngah ih tup ehang,” Joon ih liita, [eno ngah ih baat rumhala Rangte Sah ah bah heh ju.]
35 Again the next day after John stood, and two of his disciples;
Erah saalih adi heliphante wanyi damdi Joon we toonchap adi,
36 And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God!
Jisu lengkhoom ah japtup ano liita. [Rangte Saapsah ah the warah aleh!]
37 And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
Heliphante wanyi ah ih Joon jeng ah japchaat nyu ano Jisu damdi roong kanyuuta.
38 Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? They said unto him, Rabbi, ( which is to say, being interpreted, Master, ) where dwellest thou?
Jisu lekchap ih adi, nengnyi helilih ih kah arah japtup nyu ano cheng nyuuta, [Set ih tiimjih jamsok hansih?] Nengnyi ih ngaakbaat nyuuta, [An mani tonglu Rabbi?] (Rabbi ah Hebrew lam ih [Nyootte[ suh liiha)
39 He saith unto them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth hour.
[Sok raathaak hansih ba,” heh ih ngaakbaat nyuuta. (Erah tokdi rangsa lup nanah angta.) Erah thoidi heh damdi roong kah nyu ano heh mani songtongta rah japtup kanyuuta eno erah sa adi heh damdi naangjam nyuuta.
40 One of the two which heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.
Erah nyi dowa wasiit ah Simon Pitar no Andriu angta.
41 He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messiah, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.
Erah damdam heh phoh Simon ah japtup ano baatta, [Seknyi Misia chomui li tih.] (Misia ah [Kristo[ suh liiha)
42 And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus beheld him, he said, Thou art Simon the son of Jonah: thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, A stone.
Eno heh ih Simon ah Jisu taang ni siitwanta. Jisu heh taangko sok ano liita, [An Joon sah Simon, enoothong an ah Sephas ngeh ih poonho.] (Erah langla Pitar suh [jong[ ngeh ih liita likhiik)
43 The day following Jesus would go forth into Galilee, and findeth Philip, and saith unto him, Follow me.
Erah saalih adi Jisu Galili ni kaat chungta. Heh ih Philip ah japtup ano baatta, [Nga damdoh roongra ho!] (
44 Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
Philip ah Pitar nyia Andriu tongla hah, Betsaida nawa angta.)
45 Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.
Philip ih Nathanel ah japtup ano heh suh baatta, [Hootthe leedap ni Moses nyia khowah loong ih nep raangta ah seng ih japtup ehi. Heh langla Jisu, Najaret hadaang dowa Josep sah ah.]
46 And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see.
[Najaret nawa tiim bah uh ese thok nih eha?] Nathanel ih chengta. [Raaho no sok uh,” Philip ih ngaak baatta.
47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!
Jisu ih Nathanel ah heh reeni kaat ah tup ano liita, [Ijirel mina mi abah arah; heh tiim ni uh tathika!]
48 Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.
Nathanel ih heh suh chengta, An ih ngah mamah ih jat halang?] Jisu ih ngaak baatta, [Philip ih maang poon ruudi phuksak bang lathong ni ang uh rah jap tup taha.]
49 Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel.
[Nyootte[ Nathanel ih ngaak baatta, [an juuba Rangte Sah! An Ijirel Luuwang!]
50 Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater things than these.
Jisu ih chengta, [Phuksak bang lathong ni angtu adi japtup taha ngeh ih li kohaano tam hanpi halang? An ih erah tokkhodoh elong japtup uh!]
51 And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.
Eno neng suh li rumta, [Ngah ih amiisak tiit ah baat rumhala: Rangmong ah laangdaap adoh Rangsah loong ah Mina Sah reenah chookwang datkah ih lengkhoom arah japtup an.
