Luk 1
1 Mongnook Thiophilas: Seng laktung ni Rangte mootkaat angta loong ah mina hantek ih lom raangthiin rumta.
Seeing that many have taken it in hand to draw up an account of those matters which have been fully established among us,
2 Neng ih seng suh hephang di tumjih tup rumta loong ah nyia ruurang tumbaatte loong ih mamet baat tahe erah jun ih raang rumta.
just as they reported them to us, who were from beginning eye- witnesses and ministers of the word,
3 Erah raang ih, Jatwah Thiophilas, ngah ih erah loong tiit ah hephang dowa dook ih naririh ih jatjah halang, eno samthun tang, ngah ih uh naririh ih le nah phanlan raangthiin angbah ese ang ah eah.
it seemed good to me also accurately, from the very beginning, to write them to you in order, most excellent Theophilus,
4 Ngah arah reelang ah langla an ih amiisak tiit nyootsoottu loong ah ejat toom et uh ih raangthiin hang.
so that you may know the certainty of the story which you have been taught by the word of mouth.
5 Judia ni Hirod luungwang angtokdi, romwah wasiit heh men ah Jekaria, Abija lilih heh romwah esiit angta. Heh minuh men ah Elijabet angta; heh uh esiit romwah jaatang nawa angta.
In the reign of Herod, King of Judea, there was a certain priest, named Zachariah, belonging to the class of Abijah. He had a wife named Elizabeth,
6 Nengnyi Rangte miksok di toongtang lam ih songtong nyuuta Teesu Hootthe jengdang loong ah naririh et kap nyu ano ah.
who was a descendant of Aaron. They were both righteous in the sight of the Lord, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the law, blameless.
7 Elijabet ah samuh nuh ang tungthoi nengnyi sah uh tajeeta, heh miwah Jekaria nyia heh ah ekuh ekaang ih nyuuta.
Now they had no child, for Elizabeth was barren, and both were far advanced in years.
8 Heh romhoonsa thok kohaano saasiit Jekaria ah Rangteenok ni reeraang paknaata.
Now while Zachariah was acting as priest before God in the due course of his class, it fell to his lot, according to the custom of priesthood,
9 Romwah loong Hootthe jun ih Rangteenok ni phontumkaang tingtak suh jongteh tootoon rum adi Jekaria men chapta. Eno heh Teesu rangsoom nokmongni wangta
to enter into the sanctuary of the Lord and to burn incense.
10 phontumkaang tingtak tok ah chang kano miloong ah taakkhuung ni rangsoom rumta.
And the whole multitude of the people were without, praying at the hour of incense.
11 Erah di heh reeni Rangsah ah dongchap taha, jaawako romthong phontumkaang tingtakta rum adi ah.
Then there appeared to him an angel of the Lord, standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
12 Jekaria ih erah japtup ano paatjaata eno echo nep eta.
And as he saw him Zachariah was troubled, and fear fell upon him.
13 Enoothong Rangsah rah ih heh suh liita, “Nakcho uh, Jekaria! Rangte ih an rangsoom chaat eta, an minuh suh no miwasah an raangtaan ih koh ah. An ih heh men ah Joon et men theng.
But the Angel said to him. "Do not be afraid, Zachariah, because your petition has been heard, and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you are to call him John.
14 Heh tupsa doh tumthan tenroonjih ang ah an raangtaan ih ah, erah damdoh wahoh loong uh tumthan ih tenroon ang ah!
"And he shall be to you a joy and an exultation, and many shall rejoice over his birth.
15 Joon ah Teesu miksok doh elong mina esiit ang ah. Heh ih kham naktoom mok jok ah. Heh phang doktup damdam heh ah Esa Chiiala pan ang ah,
"For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, "He shall drink neither wine nor strong drink, "He shall be filled with the Holy Spirit from the hour of his birth,
16 eno heh ih Ijirel mina loong neng Teesu Rangte ko ih ngaak thoksiit ah.
"And shall win many of the sons of Israel to the Lord, their God.
17 Khowah Elija likhiik ih heh uh Teesu nganah chaan aphaan lam ih ban kah ah. Heh ih hewah heh sah loong we jun songtong thuk rum ah; heh ih Rangte jeng daante loong asuh kateng lampo jatthuk ah; heh ih Teesu mina loong heh raangtaan ih ban khookham thiin ah.”
"He shall go before Him in the wisdom and power of Elijah to turn the hearts of the fathers to their children and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous, and so to make ready for the Lord a people prepared for him."
18 Jekaria ih Rangsah asuh liita, “Emah mok ang abah ngah ih mamet jat ang? Ngah ah teekaang nih nga minuh uh wikuh ih hoonla nih.”
"How shall I be sure of this?" said Zachariah to the Angel. "For I am an old man and my wife is advanced in years."
19 “Ngah Gabrel,” Rangsah rah ih ngaakbaatta. “Ngah Rangte pandi chaplang, heh ih ngah an suh arah Ruurang Ese ah baat suh kaat thuk halang.
"I am Gabriel," answered the angel, "who stand in the presence of God; and I have been sent to speak to you and to bring and to bring you this good news.
20 Enoothong an ih nga jengkhaap ah tahanpi ko, heh rangwuung thok ha doh amiisak ih langte lek ang kano ah. Nga jengkhaap lahanpi thoidoh an tami jengko ang uh; ngah ih an damdi kakham hala ah amiisak maang langlang an suusu ih tong uh.”
"And now you shall be silent and unable to speak until the day the day when this has taken place; because you did not believe my words - Words which will be fulfilled at their appointed time."
21 Erah tok adi miloong ah ih Jekaria ah ban sok ruh ih rum ano Rangteenok ni saatang tumjih thaam eha ih paatja rumta.
Meanwhile the people were waiting for Zachariah and wondering why he stayed so long in the sanctuary.
22 Jekaria dokkhoomha no neng damdi heh tami waanta, eno neng ih jat rumta Rangteenok nok ni mot amang hetupta eah. Khaapsiit uh lami dongjeng thoi heh lakthaak pamaak ih waan rumta.
And when he came out he could not speak to them, and then they knew that he had seen a vision in the sanctuary. He kept making signs to them and remained dumb.
23 Heh Rangteenok ni rangsoom phansiit saapoot ah thoon ano, Jekaria heh nok ni ngaakwangta.
As soon as his term of priestly service was ended he went home;
24 Eno rekam ritdi heh minuh Elijabet rah heh sah dong wokta, eno laabanga heh nok nawa tadok khoomta.
and after those days Elizabeth, his wife, Conceived, and she hid herself five months, saying.
25 Heh ih liita, “Nga Teesu ih hethoondi kok chosok halang. Heh ih ngah noksong dung nah rakri theng taat angtang rah toonhaat ha!”
"This has the Lord done for me. He has now deigned to take the away my reproach among men."
26 Elijaabet sah la arok wok adi Rangte ih Rangsah Gabrel Galili samnuh Najaret hadaang adi daapkaatta.
Six months later the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a town in Galilee, called Nazareth,
27 Heh ih jaalah esiit suh tiitkhaap baatjih angta, jaalah ah Dewid luungwang sutoom Josep damdi nook suh kakhat muicho angta. Heh men ah Meeri angta.
to a maiden betrothed to a man named Joseph, a descendant of David. Her name was Mary.
28 Rangsah ah ra haano heh suh baatta, “Khooteng toomtong uh! Teesu an damdi heh ih romseetam koh halu!”
The angel went in and said to her. "Joy to you, highly favored one! "The Lord is with you."
29 Meeri ih Rangsah jeng ah chaat ano rapne ih mongsaamta, eno erah jengkhaap ah tumjih suh liita ih paatjaata.
Mary was greatly agitated at his word, and was revolving in her mind what this salutation could mean.
30 Rangsah ih liita, “Nakcho uh, Meeri; Rangte ih an minchan ih halu.
when the angel said to her. "Fear not Mary, for you have found grace with God.
31 An sah wokte anglu eno miwasah et tup uh, heh men ah Jisu et men uh.
"And behold, you shall conceive in your womb and bear a son; and you shall call his name Jesus.
32 Heh ah elong angte eno heh suh Elong Echoong ni tongte Rangte sah et li ah. Teesu Rangte ih heh ah luungwang et hoon ah, heh te Dewid likhiik ah,
"He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Most High. "And the Lord God will give him the throne of his forefather David,
33 eno heh ah Jaakob sutoom dowa rootang raang ih luungwang ang ah; Heh hasong ah babah uh lathoon thang angte!” (aiōn g165)
"and he shall reign over the House of Jacob forever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end." (aiōn g165)
34 Meeri ih Rangsah asuh liita, “Ngah roibaamuh jaalah boh ah. Erah mamah maami ang ah?”
And Mary said to the angel. "How can this be? For I have no husband?"
35 Rangsah ih ngaakbaatta, “Esa Chiiala an sak nah raaha, eno Rangte chaan ah ansak nah tong raaha. Erah raangtaan ih esa noodek asuh Rangte Sah et poon ah.
"The Holy Spirit shall come upon you," said the angel, "and the power of the most High shall overshadow you, and therefore the holy offspring which is born, shall be called the son of God.
36 An sano Elijabet ah taat samthun thaak uh. Heh suh samuh nuh ih kaliitan ah, amadi heh sah la arok angla, wikuh ih hoon adi nep ah.
"And behold your kinswoman, Elizabeth, she also has conceived a son in her old age, and this was the sixth month with her that was called barren.
37 Rangte lajen reejih tumjih uh tajeeka.”
"For no word of God shall be void of power."
38 “Ngah ah Teesu laksuh,” Meeri ih liita; “An ih baattu jun ih toom ang raaha nga sak nah ah.” Eno Rangsah ah mat khoomta.
Then Mary said. "Behold I am Lord’s slave. Let it be to me as you have said." Then the angel departed from her.
39 Erah lilih Meeri phangla ih kong akaan deek Judia ko nah kaat suh dokchapta.
Soon after this Mary set out and hastened unto the hill-country to a town in Judah;
40 Heh Jekaria nok ni nop kah ano Elijabet suh jengseeraata.
and there she came into the house of Zachariah, and greeted Elizabeth.
41 Elijabet ih Meeri jengseeraata ah japchaat damdam, heh mong nawa noodek ah jaapmota. Elijabet ah Esa Chiiala pan angta
And when Elizabeth heard her salutation, the babe leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth herself was filled with the Holy Spirit,
42 eno erongwah ih jengta, “An ah minuh loong dungni romseetam choh cho mina, erah dam ih an ih tupte noodek asuh uh romseetam choh cho!
and called out with a loud cry. "Blessed are you among women, and blessed is your unborn child!
43 Arathan elong ah nga taang ni mame ang raak kohala, Teesu nuh anep nga jiinni jen chomui jih ah?
"But why is this honor done me, that the mother of my Lord should come me?
44 An jengseera ah japchaat damdam, nga mong nawa noodek ah nep roon ano wookla.
"For behold when the sound of your salutation reached my ears, the babe leaped with joy within my womb.
45 Teesu jengkhaap ah ansak nah amiisak ih ang raaha ih hanpi thoidoh an tumthan ih tenroonte anglu!”
"And blessed is she who believed that the Lord’s words spoken to her would be fulfilled."
46 Meeri ih liita, “Nga ten ih Teesu ah phoong ha;
And Mary said. "My soul doth magnify the Lord,
47 nga pangte Rangte suh nga la roonla,
"My spirit exults in the God, who is my Saviour,

"For he has regarded the humiliation of his slave, And from this hour all ages will count me blessed.

"For he who is mighty has done great things for me; And holy is his name.

"His mercy is unto generations and generations on those who reverence him.
51 Heh ih chaan apaan pan lak ah janghaat ano engaam ete loong nyia neng tenthun mongtham ah phaang thukla.
"He has showed strength with his arm. "He has scattered proud in the imagination of their hearts;
52 Heh ih chaan apaan luungwang loong ah neng tongtheng nawa dattong thuk ano; ehin loong ah toonjoh ah.
"he has put down princes from their thrones, and has exalted those of low degree.
53 Heh ih ramtekte suh phaksat ese koha, eno changteng loong ah lak huung daap haat ha.
"The hungry he has filled with good things, But the rich he has sent empty away.
54 Heh ih sengte sengwah suh kakham thiinta rah reeta, eno heh laksuh Ijirel ah chosok ra hala.
"He has helped Israel, his servant, that he might remember mercy,
55 Heh ih sengte Abraham nyia heh sutoom satoom loong asuh, rootang raang ih minchan noisokta ah samthunha!” (aiōn g165)
"As he spoke to our forefathers, to Abraham and his offspring forever." (aiōn g165)
56 Meeri ah Elijabet damdi laajom roongtongta eno heh nok ni ngaakwangta.
So Mary stayed with Elizabeth about three months and returned home.
57 Elijabet sah tup rangwuung thok haano, heh sah ah miwasah ih tupta.
Now when the time of Elizabeth’s delivery was come, she gave birth to a son;
58 Hekhuung hetok nyia heh joonte sano loong ah ih chaat rum ano Teesu suh tumthan ih seela ih phoong rumta, eno neng ah heh damdi rapne ih roong roon rumta.
and her neighbors and kinsfolk heard that the Lord had magnified his mercy toward her; and they rejoiced with her,
59 Noodek ah saasinet ang adi, neng ah khoopkhan banlam hoon suh ra taha, eno heh men ah Jekaria, heh lilih et men theng ih liirumta.
and came on the eighth day to circumcise the child. They were about to call him "Zachariah," after his father,
60 Enoothong heh nuh ih liita, “Tah angka! Heh men Joon et men theng.”
when his mother said, "No, he is to be called John."
61 Eno neng ih heh nuh asuh baat rumta, “Enoothong erah bah ante anwah men tah angka!”
Said they, "You have no relatives of that name!"
62 Eno neng ih heh wah suh neng tokmoot damdi cheng rumta, an ih mamet men ih doh se ah ih thunhu.
Then they asked his father by signs what he wished to call the child.
63 Jekaria ih eraangtheng jonglo ah suh ano, raangta, “heh men ah Joon.” Eno mirep rapne ih paatja rumta!
So he asked for a writing tablet and wrote down, "His name is John."
64 Erah tok adi Jekaria we mi dongjengta, eno Rangte rang ah phoongta.
Every one was surprised, and at once his mouth was opened and his tongue loosed, and he spoke, blessing God.
65 Hekhuung hetok joonte loong ah neng cho dongta, eno erah ruurang ah Judia hah kong akaan noongrep ni thok ruurang kata.
And there came a great fear upon all in the neighborhood; and throughout the hill country of Judea all these sayings were much talked about.
66 Warep ih erah tiit ah chaat rum ano samthun rumleh cheng et rumta, “Arah noodek ah mamah ih dong hakte angla?” Tumeah heh sak ni Teesu chaan aphaan ah samkhikhih angta.
All the story laid it up in their hearts, saying "What, then, will this child be?" For the Lord’s hands was with him.
67 Joon wah Jekaria ah Esa Chiiala pan angta, eno heh ih Rangte jengkhaap ah baatta:
And his father, Zachariah, was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied, saying.
68 “Seng Teesu ah phoong ih Ijirel Rangte rah ah! Heh mina loong pang raangtaan ih ra taha eno neng ah puipangta.
"Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, For he has visited and redeemed his people,

"And has raised up a mighty Deliverer for us In the house of his servant David,

"To give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, And to guide our feet into the paths of peace."

And the child grew, and became strong in the Spirit, and remained in the desert till the day of his showing to Israel.
