Luke 1
1 BECAUSE many have willed to record histories of those transactions of which we are persuaded, according to that which they have delivered to us,
Mi tampin eiho lah'a ana guilhung thilsoh ho chungchang sutdoh agouvin ahi.
2 (they) who from the first were eye-witnesses and ministers of his doctrine;
Amahon amittah'a mu seijui masaho thulhut amangchauvin ahi.
3 it appeared also to me, that having been intimately near to them all, I should record every thing in its order for thee, illustrious Theophile,
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 mayest know the truth of those doctrines in which thou hast been instructed.
chutia chu thutah nana kihil jouse chu ahimong nai ti nanop nading ahi.
5 THERE was in the days of Herodes, king of the Jihudoyee, a certain priest whose name was Zakaria, of the service of the house of Abia, and his wife (was) of the daughters of Aharun; her name was Elishaba.
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 just before Aloha, and walked in all his commandments, and in the righteousness of the Lord, without blame.
Zechariah le Elizabeth chu Pathen mitmun achonpha lhon'in, Pakai dan thupeh le chon na dan jouse chingthei tah'a jui ahilhon'e.
7 But they had no son because Elishaba was barren, and both had become many in their days.
Elizabeth in nao avop theilou jeh chun cha aneilhon pon, chule ani lhon'in hateh'in ateh gel lhon tai.
8 But it was while he was acting-as-priest in the order of his ministry before Aloha,
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 he came to set on incense, and entered into the temple of the Lord.
Thempuho chonna ngai banga, ama chu Hou'in muntheng sunga lut'a chule thil namtui hal dinga lhendoh hi ahi.
10 And all the congregation of the people were praying without at the time of incense.
Thil namtui akihal jing laiyin, mipi tamtah pamlangah ading'un taona amang uve.
11 And there appeared to him, to Zakaria, the angel of the Lord, standing on the right hand 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 Zakaria trembled when he saw him, and fear fell upon him.
Zechariah in hichu amuphat in akithing'in hatah in akicha tan ahi.
13 And the angel said to him, Fear not, Zakaria, for thy prayer is heard, and thy wife Elishaba shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name Juchanon.
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 to thee shall be joy and exultation, and many shall rejoice in his birth:
Nangman kipana lentah nanei ding, chule mi tampi ama pen a kipah ding ahi,
15 for he shall be great before the Lord, and wine and strong liquor shall he not drink, and with the Spirit of Holiness shall he be filled, from the womb of his mother.
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 Isroel shall he convert to the Lord their Aloha.
Chule aman Israel mi tamtah Pakai a-Pathen'u henga alehei ding ahi.
17 And he shall go before him in the spirit and the power of Elia the prophet, to turn the hearts of the fathers unto the children, and those who believe not to the knowledge of the righteous, and to prepare for the Lord a perfect 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 Zakaria said to the angel, How shall I know this? for I am old, and my wife many in her days.
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 answered and said to him, I am Gabriel, I stand before Aloha, and I have been sent to speak with thee and to announce to thee these things.
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 From henceforth thou shalt be dumb, and shalt not be able to speak, till the day when these things shall be done, because thou hast not believed these words, which shall be fulfilled in their time.
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 But the people were standing, and expecting Zakaria. and were wondering at his delay 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 But when Zakaria had come forth, he could not speak to them; and he made them understand that he had seen a vision in the temple, and signing he signed to them, and remained dumb.
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 when the days of his service were fulfilled, he came to his house.
Zechariah in Hou'in a athempu natoh hapta alhin phat in inlam'a akile tan ahi.
24 And it was after those days Elishaba his wife conceived, and she secluded herself five months.
Phat chomkhat jouvin ajinu Elizabeth chu ahung gai paiyin chule lhanga jen potdoh louvin aum thipbeh tan ahi.
25 And she said, These things hath the Lord done for me in the days of my desolation, to take away my reproach from among the children of men.
“Pakai iti phat hitam!” tin aphongdoh in “Aman kacha neilou jeh'a jumna eilah mang peh tai,” ati.
26 BUT in the sixth month Gabriel the angel was sent from before Aloha to Galila, to a city whose name (is) Natsrath,
Elizabeth naovop kal lhagup lhin'in, Pathen in Gabriel vantil chu Galilee gam Nazareth kho ah,
27 unto a Virgin espoused to a man whose name was Jauseph, of the house of David, and the name of the Virgin was Mariam.
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 entered to her, and said to her, Peace to thee, full of grace! our Lord is with thee, thou blessed among women!
Gabriel chu amanu hengah akilah in aseitai, “Chibai, sahluttah nu! Pakaiyin naumpi,” ati.
29 But she, when she saw, was troubled at his words, and reasoned what this salutation was.
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, Mariam, for thou hast found favour with Aloha.
“Kicha hih'in Mary,” tin vantil chun aseitan ahi, “Ajeh chu nangman Pathen lunglhaina nakimutai!”
31 For, behold, thou shalt conceive, and shalt bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jeshu.
“Nangma gaiyin natin chapa khat nahin ding chule amin Yeshua nasah ding ahi.
32 He will be great, and the Son of the Most High shall he be called, and Aloha the Lord shall give unto 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 Jakub 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 And Mariam said to the angel, How shall this be, because a man is not known to me?
Mary'n vantil chu adongin, “Hinlah, hichu iti hithei ding ham? Keima nungah theng kahi,” ati.
35 The angel answered and said to her, The Spirit of Holiness shall come, and the Power of the Most High shall shadow over thee; on account of this He who (shall be) born from thee is the Holy, and the Son of Aloha shall be called.
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 behold, Elishaba thy kinswoman, she also beareth a son in her old age, and this is the sixth month to her, -to her who is called the 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 is difficult to Aloha.
Ajeh chu Pathen dingin ima ahimo aumpoi” ati.
38 And Mariam said, Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord, be it unto me as thou hast said. And the angel went 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 Mariam arose in those days, and went with haste to the mountain to a city of Jehud;
Ni phabep jouvin Mary jong Judea gam thinglhang lang,
40 and she entered into the house of Zakaria, and saluted Elishaba.
Zechariah chen na khoa chun acheloi chal'in ahi. Amanu insung alut in Elizabeth chu chibai aboh'e.
41 And it was that when Elishaba heard the salutation of Mariam, the infant leaped in her womb. And she was filled with the Spirit of Holiness;
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 she cried with a loud voice, and said unto Mariam, 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 Whence unto me is this, 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 fell the voice of thy salutation on my ears, For great Joy leaped the infant in my womb.
Nei lemna awcheng kajah chun kasunga naocha kipah in ahung kichom'e.
45 And happy is she who hath believed, For there is a fulfilment of those things which have been spoken to her from the Lord.
Anun nom nahi, ajeh chu Pakaiyin aseichu abol ding ahi ti natahsan e,” ati.
46 And Mariam said: My soul doth magnify the Lord,
Mary'n adonbut in “Kalhagao vin Pakai achoi-an e.
47 And my spirit rejoiceth in Aloha my Saviour,
Kalhagao eihuhhing pu Pathen chunga iti kipah thanom hitam!
48 Who hath looked upon the lowliness of his handmaid: For, behold, from now all generations shall give blessedness to me.
Ajeh chu aman asoh numei nu dinmun ave jingin, chule tua pat'a khang jousen nunnom eiti diu ahitai.
49 Because he hath done for me great things, he who is mighty, And holy is his name.
Ajeh chu Hatchungnungpa chu atheng ahi, chule aman keima din thil loupi abol'e
50 And his grace is for ages and generations Upon those who fear him.
Aman ahepina akhang akhang'in ama gingte amusah jinge.
51 He hath wrought victory with his arm; He hath scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts.
Abanthahat chun kichat um tahtah thil abol'e! Aman mikiletsah le hoitho ho athecheh ji'e.
52 He hath overturned the mighty from their thrones, And hath exalted the humble.
Leng chapate alaltounau-vakon in aloilhan mi kineosah te adomsang ji'e.
53 The hungry he hath satisfied 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 helped Isroel his servant, And hath remembered 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 Mariam stayed with Elishaba three months, and returned to her house.
Mary chu Elizabeth koma lhathum tobang aum jouvin a'inlam ah akile tai.
57 BUT to Elishaba had come the time that she should give birth, and she gave birth to a son.
Elizabeth chu anaoso phat alhin phat in amanun chapa khat ahingin ahi.
58 And her neighbours and the sons of her family heard that Aloha had magnified his grace upon 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 was the eighth day, and they came to circumcise the child; and they called him by the name of his father, Zakaria.
Naosen chu niget alhin in, amaho abon'un cheptansah dingin ahung'un ahi. Amahon apa banga amin Zechariah sahding agouvin,
60 And his mother answered and said to them, Not so; but he shall be called Juchanon.
ahivangin Elizabeth in, “Ahipoi, amin John ahi,” atitai.
61 And they said to her, No man in thy kindred is called by this name.
“Ipi natim?” tin amaho ahung eojah jengun “Na insung uvah hitobang min chu aum khapoi,” atiuve.
62 And they signed to his father (to show) how he willed they should call him.
Hijeh chun naosen min chu apan ipi akisah nom am ti mit-heiyin adongun ahi.
63 And he requested a tablet, and wrote, and said, Juchanan is his name. And every man wondered.
Aman lekhasutna pheng athum'in, mijouse lungdong in alhan “Amin John ahi” tin ahinjih e.
64 And immediately his mouth and his tongue were opened, and he spake, and blessed Aloha.
Chutah chun Zechariah jong ahung paothei tan chule Pathen avahchoi pan tai.
65 And there was fear upon all around them; and in all the hill country of Jehud were these things spoken.
Akimvel'a cheng chengse din kichatna alhung tan chule Judea thinglhang gam sungse ah thilsoh umchan chu akithejal soh tai.
66 And all who heard reasoned in their hearts, and said, What is this child to be? And 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 Zakaria his father was filled with the Spirit of Holiness, and he prophesied, and said:
Chuin apa Zechariah chu Lhagao Theng adimset tan chule hiche gaothu hi aphongdoh in ahi:
68 Blessed be the Lord, the Aloha of Israel; For he hath visited his people, and wrought for him redemption,
Vahchoiyun Pakai, Israel Pathen chu; ajehchu aman amite avil'in alhatdoh tai
69 And hath raised up for us the horn of redemption 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 That we should be delivered from our adversaries, And from the hand of all who hate us;
Tua eiho igalmiteu vakon le eihotbolteu va kona huhdoh a umding ihitauve.
72 To perform his grace with our fathers, And to remember his holy covenant;
Aman ipu ipateu khotonan akitepna thengho ageldoh jingin–
73 The oath which he sware to Abraham our father, -
Akitepna ipuluiyu Abraham koma anakitepna bangtah in
74 That to us he would grant That, being delivered from the hand of our adversaries, Without fear we might serve before him
i-galmiteuva kon in eihuhdoh uve, Pathen kichatna beihel'a ijen thei nadiuvin
75 All our days in righteousness.
Then na le chondihna a ihin laiseuva dingin
76 And thou, child, the Prophet of the Most High Shalt thou be called; For thou shalt go before the face of the Lord, And thou shalt prepare his way;
“Chule kachapa, nangma chungnung pen themgao kiti ding nahi; ajeh chu nangman Pakai lampi semtoh sa nakoi ding ahi.
77 To give the knowledge of salvation to his people In the forgiveness of their sins,
Nangman amite, achonset nau ngaidam na'a kona huhhingna akimudoh nadiu naseipeh ding ahi.
78 Through the compassions of the grace of our Aloha; Whereby the morn-splendour shall visit us from on high,
Pathen mikhotona nemheo vanga jingkhovah chu van'a kona eiho chunga hung kisukeh go ahitai.
79 To illumine those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death. And to direct 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 was strong in the spirit, and was in the desert till the day of his manifestation unto Isroel.
John chu ahung khanglen in chule lhagaovin ahung hatdoh in ahi. Chule Israel koma lhangphonga natoh apat kahsen ama gamthip lah dungah aumin ahi.
