Johan 1
1 Ak cykca awh awi ce awm hy, Awi ce Khawsa ing awm haih hy nih, ce awi taw Khawsa ni.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 Anih ce ak cykca awh Khawsa ing awm haih hy nih.
The same was in the beginning with God.
3 Anih ak caming ik-oeih boeih boeih ve sai na awm nawh; anih kaana taw ik-oeih sai pynoet ca awm am awm hy.
All things were made through him; and without him was nothing made that hath been made.
4 Anih ak khuiawh hqingnaak ce awm nawh, cawhkaw hqingnaak cetaw thlanghqing aham vangnaak na awm hy.
In him is life; and the life was the light of men.
5 Cawhkaw vangnaak ce than ak khuiawh vang hy, cehlai thannaak ing anih ce am sim hy.
And the light hath been shining in the darkness; and the darkness received it not.
6 Khawsa venawh kawng a tyih law thlang pynoet ce awm hy; anih taw Johan mingna hy.
There was a man, sent from God, whose name was John.
7 Anih ak caming thlang boeih ing amik cangnaak thai aham anih taw cawhkaw vangnaak ak sim sakkung simpyinaak na awm hy.
He came as a witness, to bear witness of the light, that through him all might believe.
8 Amah taw vangnaak amni; cehlai cawhkaw vangnaak ak dyih pyi simpyinaak na awm hy.
He was not the light, but came to bear witness of the light.
9 Thlang boeih ak coeikung vangnaak tang tang ce khawmdek awh law hy.
The true light, which enlighteneth every man, was coming into the world.
10 Anih taw khawmdek awh awm hawh hy; amah ing khawmdek ve sai hlai hy, khawmdek ing amah ce am hat hy.
He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world knew him not.
11 Ak thlangkhqi venna law hlai hy, ak thlangkhqi ing anih ce am do uhy.
He came to his own, and his own received him not.
12 Cehlai amah ce ak dokhqi boeih, ang ming ak cangnaak thlangkhqi boeih a venawh, Khawsa cakhqi na awm thainaak ce pehy.
But as many as received him, to them he gave power to become children of God, —to those who believed in his name;
13 Pumsa ben kaana, ‘Khawsa a ngaihnaak amyihna ak thang thlangkhqi na awm uhy.
who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 Awi ce pumsa na coeng nawh, ningnih a venawh awm hy. Pynoet ingkaw taak chyn na ak awm a boeimangnaak, qeennaak ingkaw awitak ing ak be, Pa a venna kawng ak law, amah a boeimangnaak ce ni hu hawh uhy.
And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth; and we beheld his glory, a glory as of an only begotten of a father.
15 Johan ing anih akawng ce thlang a venawh sim sak hy. “Anih akawng maw kak kqawn mah, ‘Anih taw kai anglakawh lamma na a awm hawh dawngawh, kai a hu awh ak law cetaw kai anglakawh bau khqoet hy,’ ka tice,” tihy.
John beareth witness of him, and crieth, saying, This was he of whom I said, He that cometh after me hath gone before me; for he was before me.
16 Am qeennaak ak be pyr awhkawng ningnih ing zoseennaak pynoet coeng pynoet ni hu boeih uhy.
For out of his fullness have we all received, and grace upon grace.
17 Mosi a venawh kawng anaa awi ce a na pe nawh, qeennaak ingkaw awitak taw Jesu Khrih awhkawng law hy.
For the Law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
18 U ingawm Khawsa ce am hu khawi hlai hy, pynoet doek khoeih a taak chyn na ak awm Khawsa, Pa a venawh ak awm ing anih ce dang law sak hawh hy.
No one hath ever seen God; the only begotten God, who is in the bosom of the Father, he hath made him known.
19 Jerusalem awhkaw Judakhqi ing anih ce doet aham khawsoeihkhqi ingkaw Levikhqi ce a venna a tyih khqi awh Johan ing a simpyinaak taw vemyihna awm hy.
And this is the witness of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem, to ask him, Who art thou?
20 Anih ce simpyi kaana am awm hy, “Kai ve Khrih amni,” tinawh kqawn hy.
And he declared, and did not deny; and he declared, I am not the Christ.
21 Cekkhqi ing, Cawhtaw nang ve a u nu? Nang ve Elijah aw?” tinawh doet uhy. Anih ing, “Amni,” tinak khqi hy. “Nang ve Tawngha aw?” tina bai uhy. Anih ing, “Amni, tinak khqi bai hy.
And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elijah? And he said, I am not. Art thou the prophet? And he answered, No.
22 A hukhit na taw cekkhqi ing, Nang ve a u nu? Kaimih anik tyikhqi venawh ka mik kqawnnaak aham nang ve a u nu tice kqawn lah. Namah ingkaw namah ce ikawmyihna nak kqawnnaak?” tina uhy.
They said therefore to him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to those who sent us; what sayest thou of thyself?
23 Johan ing tawngha Isaiah ak awi ing hlat pek khqi hy, Kai taw, ‘Bawipa aham lam ce dyng sak lah uh,’ tinawh qamkoh awh ak khypyi ce ni,” tinak khqi hy.
He said, I am “a voice of one crying aloud in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord,” as said Isaiah the prophet.
24 Cawh ami tyihkhqi Farasi thlang vang tloek ing,
And they were sent from the Pharisees;
25 doet uhy, Khrih na awm am awm hyk ti, Elijah na awm am awm nawh tawngha na awm am awm loei tiksaw, ikaw ham nu baptisam nani peek khqi bai?” tina uhy.
and they asked him and said to him, Why then dost thou baptize, if thou art not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?
26 Johan ing, “Kai ing tui ing baptisma ni pek khqi nyng, cehlai naming lakawh am nami sim thlang pynoet dyi hy.
John answered them, saying, I baptize in water. There standeth one among you whom ye know not,
27 Anih cetaw kai a hu awhkaw ak law ce ni, anih a khawmyk qui ak suh peek aham awm kai taw am kawih nyng,” tinak khqi hy.
he who cometh after me, the latchet of whose sandal I am not worthy to loose.
28 Vawhkaw ik-oeihkhqi boeih taw Johan ing baptisma a peeknaak Jordan tui caqai Bethani khaw awh ak awm na awm hy.
These things took place in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
29 A khawngawi nyn awh Jesu a venna a law ce Johan ing a huh awh, “Khawmdek thawlhnaak ak phyikung, Khawsa a tuuca, toek lah uh!
The next day he seeth Jesus coming to him, and saith, Behold, the Lamb of God, who taketh away the sin of the world!
30 Anih ni, ‘Kai a hu awh ak law taw kai anglakawh bau khqoet hy, kawtih anih taw kai ka awm hlanawh awm hawh hy,’ ka ti ce.
This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man, who hath gone before me; for he was before me.
31 Kai kamah ingawm anih ce am sim nyng, cehlai kai ing tui ing baptisma ka ni peeknaak khqi vetaw, anih ce Israel thlangkhqi venawh ang dangnaak aham ni,” tihy.
And I knew him not; but that he might be made manifest to Israel, therefore I came baptizing in water.
32 Cekcoengawh Johan ing vemyihna sim pyi hy: “Khan nakawng Myihla kqukkqu amyihna kqum law nawh ak khanawh ang cuk ce hu nyng.
And John bore witness, saying, I have seen the Spirit descending as a dove from heaven, and it abode upon him.
33 Ak khanawh Myihla kqum nawh ak cu thlang ing Ciim Myihla ing baptisma ni pe khqi kaw,’ tinawh tui ing baptisma peek aham anik tyikung ing amak kqawn law man kai ingawm amna sim kawng.
And I knew him not; but he who sent me to baptize in water, the same said to me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending and abiding on him, he it is that baptizeth in the Holy Spirit.
34 Kai ing ka huh hawh dawngawh anih ve Khawsa Capa ni, tice sim pyi nyng,” tihy.
And I have seen and have borne witness, that this is the Son of God.
35 A khawngawi nyn awh Johan taw a hubat thlang pakkhih ingqawi ce a hun awh awm tlaih bai uhy.
On the morrow John was again standing, and two of his disciples;
36 Jesu a ceh ce a huh awh, “Khawsa a tuuca ce, toek lah uh,” tinak khqi hy.
and looking upon Jesus as he was walking, he saith, Behold, the Lamb of God!
37 Cawhkaw awi ce a hubat thlang pakkhih ing a ning zaak awh, Jesu a hu awh ce bat hy nih.
The two disciples heard him speaking, and they followed Jesus.
38 Cekqawi ing a hu awh ani hquut ce Jesu ing a huh awh, hawi nawh, “Ikaw na ni ngaih? tina qawi hy. Cekqawi ing, “Cawngpyi kung, hanawh na awm?” tina hy nih.
Jesus turning and seeing them following, saith to them, What seek ye? And they said to him, Rabbi, (that is to say, when interpreted, Teacher, ) where dost thou dwell?
39 Anih ing, “Vena law nih, hu bit kawm nik ti,” tina qawi hy. Cedawngawh cekqawi ce cet nih nawh anih a awmnaak ce hu hy nih, ce a nyn awh ce anih a venawh awm pyt hy nih. Ce a tym taw khawnoek pahqa tluk law hy.
He saith to them, Come, and ye shall see. They came therefore and saw where he dwelt; and they abode with him that day. It was about the tenth hour.
40 Simon Piter a na Andru taw, cekqawi ak khuiawh Johan ak awi za nawh Jesu a hu awh ak bat thlang pynoet na awm hy.
One of the two who heard what John said, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.
41 Lamma cyk na Andru ing a sai taw ak tai Simon ce sui nawh, Mesiah (Khrih, tinaak) hu hawh nyng, tinawh kqawn peek aham sui hy.
He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith to him, We have found the Messiah; (which is, when interpreted, the Christ.)
42 Cekcoengawh ak tai ce Jesu a venna law pyi hy. Jesu ing anih ce toek nawh, “Nang taw Johan a capa Simon ni, Cepha (ve ve Piter tinaak ni) ming na hawh kawp ti,” tina hy.
He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looking upon him said, Thou art Simon, the son of John; thou shalt be called Cephas; (which signifieth Peter, that is, Rock.)
43 A khawngawi nyn awh Jesu taw Kalili na ceh aham cai hy. Philip ce hu nawh, “Ka hu awh bat lah,” tina hy.
On the morrow he determined to go forth into Galilee, and findeth Philip. And Jesus saith to him, Follow me.
44 Andru ingkaw Piter amyihna Philip awm Bethsaida khaw awhkaw thlang na awm hy.
Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
45 Philip ing Nathanel ce hu nawh kqawn pehy, “Mosi a anaa awi awh qee nawh tawnghakhqi ingawm ami na qee – Nazareth Jesu, Joseph a capa ce, hu hawh nyng,” tina hy.
Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith to him, We have found him of whom Moses in the Law, and the Prophets wrote, Jesus, the son of Joseph, who is of Nazareth.
46 Nathanel ing, Nazareth e! Cawhkawng ik-oeih leek law hly thai nawh nu ti?” tinawh doet hy. Philip ing, “Law nawh taw toek mah toek cang lah,” tina hy.
And Nathanael said to him, Can any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith to him, Come and see.
47 Nathanel a law ce Jesu ing a huh awh, “Coet amak kap, Israel thlang tang tang vawh awm hy ve,” tina hy.
Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile.
48 Nathanel ing, “Ikawmyihna nani simnaak?” tina hy. Jeush ing, “Philip ing anik khy hlanawh thaikung awh nang ngawih awh ni hu hawh nyng,” tina hy.
Nathanael saith to him, Whence dost thou know me? Jesus answered and said to him, Before Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig-tree, I saw thee.
49 Cawh Nathanel ing, “Cawngpyikung, nang ve Khawsa Capa; Israel Sangphrang na awm hyk ti,” tina hy.
Nathanael answered him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God, thou art the king of Israel.
50 Jesu ing, “Thaikung awh na awm awh ni hu nyng, ka ni tinaak dawngawh nik cangna hyk ti. Ce anglakawh ik-oeih ak bau khqoet hu hyn kawp ti,” tina hy.
Jesus answered and said to him, Because I said to thee, I saw thee under the fig-tree, dost thou believe? Thou shalt see greater things than these.
51 Cekcoengawh, “Awitak ka nik kqawn peek khawk khan ak awng qu ce hu kawm tiksaw, Thlang Capa ak camawh, Khawsa ak khan ceityihkhqi a hak kai ingkaw a nuk kqum ce hu kawp ti,” tina hy.
And he saith to him, Truly, truly do I say to you, Ye will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.
