Luke 1
1 Inasmuch as many have undertaken to arrange a narrative of those things which are fully believed among us,
Mi tampin eiho lah'a ana guilhung thilsoh ho chungchang sutdoh agouvin ahi.
2 even as they were delivered to us by those who were eye-witnesses from the beginning and became ministers of the word,
Amahon amittah'a mu seijui masaho thulhut amangchauvin ahi.
3 it seemed good to me also, having accurately traced up all things from the first, to write to thee a connected account, most excellent Theophilus,
Thil jouse abul'a pat phatah'a kholchil ahitoh lhon'in, keiman jong chingthei tah'a nangma dinga jihdoh ding kakigel lhah ahitai, jana sangpen chang Theophilus,
4 that thou mightst know the exact truth with regard to those things in which thou wast instructed.
chutia chu thutah nana kihil jouse chu ahimong nai ti nanop nading ahi.
5 There was in the days of Herod, king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zachariah, of the course of Abijah; and he had a wife of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth.
Judea gam'a Herod leng ahi laiyin, Zechariah kiti Judah thempu khat ana um'in ahi. Ama chu Abijah thempu loi lah'a khat ahin chule a'inneipi Elizabeth jong chu Aaron thempu khailhah'a kon ahi.
6 And they were both righteous in the sight of God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
Zechariah le Elizabeth chu Pathen mitmun achonpha lhon'in, Pakai dan thupeh le chon na dan jouse chingthei tah'a jui ahilhon'e.
7 And they had no child, because Elizabeth was barren, and they were both far advanced in years.
Elizabeth in nao avop theilou jeh chun cha aneilhon pon, chule ani lhon'in hateh'in ateh gel lhon tai.
8 And it came to pass, that, while he was serving as priest before God in the order of his course,
Nikhat Zechariah chun Hou'in sungah Pathen kin abolin, ajeh chu chuche hapta sunga chu mopohna chang ahi.
9 according to the custom of the priesthood the lot fell to him to go into the temple of the Lord and burn the incense.
Thempuho chonna ngai banga, ama chu Hou'in muntheng sunga lut'a chule thil namtui hal dinga lhendoh hi ahi.
10 And the whole multitude of the people was praying without at the time of the incense.
Thil namtui akihal jing laiyin, mipi tamtah pamlangah ading'un taona amang uve.
11 And there appeared to him an angel of the Lord, standing on the right of the altar of incense.
Zechariah muntheng sunga aumpet in Pakai vantil khat ahengah ahung kilah in, maicham phung jetlam a chun adingin ahi.
12 And Zachariah was troubled at the sight, and fear fell upon him.
Zechariah in hichu amuphat in akithing'in hatah in akicha tan ahi.
13 But the angel said to him, Fear not, Zachariah; for thy prayer was heard, and thy wife Elizabeth shall bear thee a son; and thou shalt call his name John.
Ahivangin vantil chun aseiyin, “Kicha hih'in Zechariah! Pathen in nataona asangtai. Na inneipi Elizabeth in chapa khat nahinpeh ding, chule amin John nasah ding ahi.
14 And thou wilt have joy and gladness, and many will rejoice for his birth.
Nangman kipana lentah nanei ding, chule mi tampi ama pen a kipah ding ahi,
15 For he will be great in the sight of the Lord; and will drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he will be filled with the Holy Spirit from his very birth.
ijeh inem itile ama chu Pakai mitmua hung len ding. Aman ju kiti le khamna thei thil kiti atohkhah thei lou ding. Ama chu apen masang jenga jong Lhagao Theng dimset ding ahi.
16 And many of the sons of Israel will he turn to the Lord their God.
Chule aman Israel mi tamtah Pakai a-Pathen'u henga alehei ding ahi.
17 And he will go before his face in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of fathers to children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous, to make ready for the Lord a prepared people.
Ama chun Elijah lhagao le thahat aken ding ahi. Aman mipiho chu Pakai hung na dinga agontup ding ahi. Mipa te lung achate chunga aheiya chule doudal lungput neiho michonphaho chihna akisan sah ding ahi,” ati.
18 And Zachariah said to the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife is far advanced in years.
Zechariah chun vantil jah'a aseiyin, “Hitobang hi aso ding ken iti kahet thei ding ham? Tun keima kateh tan, chule ka inneipi jong kum tamtah alhing tai,” tin adong tai.
19 And the angel answering said to him, I am Gabriel, who stand in the presence of God; and I was sent to speak to thee, and to tell thee these glad tidings.
Chuin vantil chun aseiyin, “Keima Gabriel kahi! Pathen angsung tah a ding kahi. Ama ahi keima nahenga hiche kipana thupha podinga eihin sol ah;
20 And lo! thou shalt be silent, and not able to speak, until the day when these things shall come to pass, because thou didst not believe my words, which will be fulfilled in their season.
Ahinlah tun, nangman kasei natahsan pon, chujeh'a nangma nathipbeh ding chule nao apen tokah'a paothei louva naum ding ahitai. Ajeh chu kathusei chengse hi aphat cha guilhung tei ding ahi,” ati.
21 And the people were looking for Zachariah, and wondering that he remained so long in the temple.
Achutilai chun mipi hon Zechariah chu ahung potdoh ding angah jingun, ipi bol'a hibanga hi sot den hitam tin alungdong gam tauvin ahi.
22 And on coming out, he was not able to speak to them; and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple; and he was beckoning to them, and remained speechless.
Achainakeiya ahung potdoh phat chun ama apaodoh thei tapon ahi. Chuin amahon amaiso le apaotheilouva kon chun Hou'in muntheng sunga chu mu anei hinte ti ahedoh un ahi.
23 And it came to pass, when the days of his ministration were completed, that he returned to his house.
Zechariah in Hou'in a athempu natoh hapta alhin phat in inlam'a akile tan ahi.
24 And after those days his wife Elizabeth conceived, and hid herself five months, saying,
Phat chomkhat jouvin ajinu Elizabeth chu ahung gai paiyin chule lhanga jen potdoh louvin aum thipbeh tan ahi.
25 Thus hath the Lord dealt with me in the days wherein he looked on me to take away my reproach among men.
“Pakai iti phat hitam!” tin aphongdoh in “Aman kacha neilou jeh'a jumna eilah mang peh tai,” ati.
26 And in her sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee, called Nazareth,
Elizabeth naovop kal lhagup lhin'in, Pathen in Gabriel vantil chu Galilee gam Nazareth kho ah,
27 to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.
nungah theng Mary hengah asol'in ahi. Amanu chu Joseph kiti Leng David insung khailhah pasal khat toh kicheng dinga got'a um ahitai.
28 And the angel came in to her and said, Hail, thou that art highly favored! the Lord is with thee.
Gabriel chu amanu hengah akilah in aseitai, “Chibai, sahluttah nu! Pakaiyin naumpi,” ati.
29 And she was troubled at the words, and was considering what this salutation could mean.
Lungdong le lung kika lahlah pum in Mary'in vantil thusei chu ipi tina ahi agel tai.
30 And the angel said to her, Fear not, Mary; for thou hast found favor with God.
“Kicha hih'in Mary,” tin vantil chun aseitan ahi, “Ajeh chu nangman Pathen lunglhaina nakimutai!”
31 And lo! thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and hear a son, and shalt call his name Jesus.
“Nangma gaiyin natin chapa khat nahin ding chule amin Yeshua nasah ding ahi.
32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give to him the throne of David his father;
Ama hung len ding chule Chungnung pen Chapa kiti ding ahi. Pakai Pathen in apu David laltouna apehding ahi.
33 and he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end. (aiōn g165)
Chule Israel chunga tonsot'a vai apoh ding, alenggam in beitih aneilou ding ahi!” ati. (aiōn g165)
34 Then said Mary to the angel, How shall this be, since I know not a man?
Mary'n vantil chu adongin, “Hinlah, hichu iti hithei ding ham? Keima nungah theng kahi,” ati.
35 And the angel answering said to her, The Holy Spirit will come upon thee, and the power of the Most High will overshadow thee; wherefore the holy one that is to be born will be called the Son of God.
Vantil chun adonbut in, “Lhagao Theng nachunga hung chu ding, chule chungnung pen thanei na in nalekhu ding ahi. Hijeh a chu naosen apeng ding chu atheng hiding chule ama chu Pathen Chapa kiti ding ahi.
36 And lo! Elizabeth, thy kinswoman, she also hath conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her who is called barren.
Ipi aval um ding ham, nasopinu Elizabeth in jong ateh nungin nao avop tai! Mi hon aching'ah ahi atiuvin, hinlah tun chapa khat avop'in lhagup alhingtai.
37 For nothing will be impossible with God.
Ajeh chu Pathen dingin ima ahimo aumpoi” ati.
38 And Mary said, Lo, the handmaid of the Lord! May it be to me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.
Mary'n adonbut in, “Keima Pakai sohnu kahi, kachunga lhungding nasei jouse hung guilhung hen,” ati. Chuti chun vantil chun amanu chu adalhatai.
39 And Mary arose and went in those days into the hill-country with haste, into a city of Judah.
Ni phabep jouvin Mary jong Judea gam thinglhang lang,
40 And she entered the house of Zachariah, and saluted Elizabeth.
Zechariah chen na khoa chun acheloi chal'in ahi. Amanu insung alut in Elizabeth chu chibai aboh'e.
41 And it came to pass, when Elizabeth heard the salutation of Mary, that the babe leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit,
Mary'n chibai aboh gin ajah chun Elizabeth naosen chu a-oisung a chun ahung kichom in, chule Elizabeth chu Lhagao Theng adimset tan ahi.
42 and cried out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women; and blessed is the fruit of thy womb!
Elizabeth in kipanan ka cheng ahinlon Mary jah'a chun aseitai, “Pathen in numei jouse chunga phatthei naboh ahitai, chule na cha jong anunnom'e.
43 And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
Ipi jeh'a hibanga jana kachan a ka pakai nu in eihung vil ham?
44 For lo! as soon as the voice of thy salutation came to my ears, the babe leaped in my womb in exultation.
Nei lemna awcheng kajah chun kasunga naocha kipah in ahung kichom'e.
45 And blessed is she who hath believed that there will be an accomplishment of those things which were told her from the Lord.
Anun nom nahi, ajeh chu Pakaiyin aseichu abol ding ahi ti natahsan e,” ati.
46 And Mary said, My soul magnifieth the Lord,
Mary'n adonbut in “Kalhagao vin Pakai achoi-an e.
47 and my spirit hath exulted in God my Saviour;
Kalhagao eihuhhing pu Pathen chunga iti kipah thanom hitam!
48 for he hath looked upon the low estate of his handmaiden. For lo! from this time all generations will call me blessed;
Ajeh chu aman asoh numei nu dinmun ave jingin, chule tua pat'a khang jousen nunnom eiti diu ahitai.
49 for the Mighty One hath done great things for me; and holy is his name;
Ajeh chu Hatchungnungpa chu atheng ahi, chule aman keima din thil loupi abol'e
50 and his mercy is from generation to generation on them that fear him.
Aman ahepina akhang akhang'in ama gingte amusah jinge.
51 He hath wrought mightily with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the device of their heart.
Abanthahat chun kichat um tahtah thil abol'e! Aman mikiletsah le hoitho ho athecheh ji'e.
52 He hath cast down princes from thrones, and exalted men of low degree.
Leng chapate alaltounau-vakon in aloilhan mi kineosah te adomsang ji'e.
53 The hungry he hath filled with good things, and the rich he hath sent away empty.
Aman agilkel te thil pha phan avah in chule ahao te khutgoh keovin asoldoh ji'e
54 He hath given help to Israel his servant, in remembrance of his mercy
Aman asoh Israel akithopin khoto dingin ageldoh'e.
Ajeh chu aman hiche kitepna hi iputeu, Abraham, chule achate dinga asem ahi.” (aiōn g165)
56 And Mary abode with her about three months, and returned to her own house.
Mary chu Elizabeth koma lhathum tobang aum jouvin a'inlam ah akile tai.
57 Now Elizabeth's full time came that she should be delivered; and she brought forth a son.
Elizabeth chu anaoso phat alhin phat in amanun chapa khat ahingin ahi.
58 And her neighbors and her kinsfolk heard that the Lord had showed great mercy toward her; and they rejoiced with her.
Chuleh aheng akom le asopi chengin Pakaiyin akhoto naho ajahdoh phat un, mijouse amanu toh akipah khom cheh tauve.
59 And it came to pass that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child; and they were about to call him Zachariah, after the name of his father.
Naosen chu niget alhin in, amaho abon'un cheptansah dingin ahung'un ahi. Amahon apa banga amin Zechariah sahding agouvin,
60 And his mother answering said, Not so; but he shall be called John.
ahivangin Elizabeth in, “Ahipoi, amin John ahi,” atitai.
61 And they said to her, There is no one of thy kindred that is called by this name.
“Ipi natim?” tin amaho ahung eojah jengun “Na insung uvah hitobang min chu aum khapoi,” atiuve.
62 And they made signs to his father, how he would have him named.
Hijeh chun naosen min chu apan ipi akisah nom am ti mit-heiyin adongun ahi.
63 And he asked for a writing-tablet, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they all marveled.
Aman lekhasutna pheng athum'in, mijouse lungdong in alhan “Amin John ahi” tin ahinjih e.
64 And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue was loosed; and he spoke, blessing God.
Chutah chun Zechariah jong ahung paothei tan chule Pathen avahchoi pan tai.
65 And fear came on all that dwelt around them; and all these things were talked of throughout the whole of the hill-country of Judaea.
Akimvel'a cheng chengse din kichatna alhung tan chule Judea thinglhang gam sungse ah thilsoh umchan chu akithejal soh tai.
66 And all that heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, What then will this child be? For the hand of the Lord was with him.
Chuche thilsoh jajouse chun athilsoh hochu alungin aching geh'un, “Hiche chapang hi ipibep ahungsoh tadem?” atiuvin ahi.
67 And Zachariah his father was filled with the Holy Spirit, and prophesied, saying,
Chuin apa Zechariah chu Lhagao Theng adimset tan chule hiche gaothu hi aphongdoh in ahi:
68 Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel! for he hath visited and redeemed his people,
Vahchoiyun Pakai, Israel Pathen chu; ajehchu aman amite avil'in alhatdoh tai
69 and hath raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of David his servant, —
Aman huhhing hattah khat asoh David khailhah a kon in eipeuve.
Athemgao thengte henga malaiya akitepna banga (aiōn g165)
71 salvation from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us,
Tua eiho igalmiteu vakon le eihotbolteu va kona huhdoh a umding ihitauve.
72 to accomplish his mercy toward our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant,
Aman ipu ipateu khotonan akitepna thengho ageldoh jingin–
73 the oath which he swore to Abraham our father,
Akitepna ipuluiyu Abraham koma anakitepna bangtah in
74 to grant to us, that being delivered from the hand of our enemies, we might worship him without fear,
i-galmiteuva kon in eihuhdoh uve, Pathen kichatna beihel'a ijen thei nadiuvin
75 in holiness and righteousness before him, all our days.
Then na le chondihna a ihin laiseuva dingin
76 And thou, child, shalt be called a prophet of the Most High; for thou shalt go in advance before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways,
“Chule kachapa, nangma chungnung pen themgao kiti ding nahi; ajeh chu nangman Pakai lampi semtoh sa nakoi ding ahi.
77 to give knowledge of salvation to his people in the remission of their sins
Nangman amite, achonset nau ngaidam na'a kona huhhingna akimudoh nadiu naseipeh ding ahi.
78 through the tender mercy of our God, whereby the day-spring from on high hath visited us,
Pathen mikhotona nemheo vanga jingkhovah chu van'a kona eiho chunga hung kisukeh go ahitai.
79 to give light to those sitting in darkness and the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.
Muthim'a touho le thina lim'a touho vah pedinga, chule chamna lampi komu peh dinga ahi,” ati.
80 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit; and was in the deserts till the day of his manifestation to Israel.
John chu ahung khanglen in chule lhagaovin ahung hatdoh in ahi. Chule Israel koma lhangphonga natoh apat kahsen ama gamthip lah dungah aumin ahi.
