Acts 1
1 I have made the former treatise, O Theophilus, of al that Jesus began to doe and teach,
Theophilus awng, amasa laibu ka atna sung ah, Jesus i sep le a hilna theampo a kipat pan in,
2 Vntill the day that hee was taken vp, after that hee through the holy Ghost, had giuen commandements vnto the Apostles, whome hee had chosen:
Ama a ki lakto ni dong, tuazawk Tha Thiangtho tungtawn in a tealsa sawltak te tung ah thupia hi:
3 To whome also he presented himselfe aliue after that he had suffered, by many infallible tokens, being seene of them by the space of fourtie daies, and speaking of those thinges which appertaine to the kingdome of God.
A thuak zawkciang in sawltak te in ni sawm li sung Ama mu uh a, Pathian kumpingam taw kisai thu te son hi, Ama nungta tatak hi, ci tetti kho tampi taw lak hi:
4 And when he had gathered them together, he commanded them, that they should not depart from Hierusalem, but to waite for the promise of the Father, which sayde hee, yee haue heard of me.
Munkhat ah amate taw a ki kaikhop laitak in, Jerusalem pan koima pai ngawl tu in, Keima tung pan na zaksa uh bangma in, Pa i kamciam na ngak vun.
5 For Iohn in deede baptized with water, but ye shall be baptized with the holy Ghost within these fewe daies.
Banghangziam cile John in tui taw tuiphumna hong pia takpi hi; ahihang ni tampi ma in Tha Thiangtho i tuiphumna na sang tu uh ci, ci in amate thupia hi.
6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore the kingdome to Israel?
Tua ahikom amate munkhat a a ki kaikhop tek uh ciang in, sawltak te in Jesus kung ah, Topa awng, tu in Israel te tung ah kumpingam na piakik tu ziam? ci in dong uh hi.
7 And hee saide vnto them, It is not for you to know the times, or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his owne power,
Jesus in amate tung ah, Pa in Ama vangletna sung ah a koisa hun le ni te sia, note i heak tu kisam ngawl hi.
8 But yee shall receiue power of the holy Ghost, when he shall come on you: and ye shalbe witnesses vnto me both in Hierusalem and in all Iudea, and in Samaria, and vnto the vttermost part of the earth.
Ahihang note tung ah Tha Thiangtho hong thet zawkciang in, vangletna na nga tu uh hi: taciang in Jerusalem le Judah ngamsung theampo, taciang Samaria ngamsung le lei mong a tawp dong in, keima tetti te na hi tu uh hi, ci hi.
9 And when he had spoken these things, while they behelde, he was taken vp: for a cloude tooke him vp out of their sight.
Taciang hi thu te a son zawkciang, amate in a et uh laitak in, Jesus sia a tungsang ah ki lato a; amate mutang in mei in lia hi.
10 And while they looked stedfastly towarde heauen, as hee went, beholde, two men stoode by them in white apparell,
Tabang in vantung ah a kato sia mate in a et tek uh laitak in, en vun, amate hui ah puanpak sil in mi ni hong ding hi;
11 Which also sayde, Yee men of Galile, why stande yee gasing into heauen? This Iesus which is taken vp from you into heauen, shall so come, as yee haue seene him goe into heauen.
Tua te in, no Galilee mite, banghang in vantung en in ding top lai nu ziam? note kung pan in van ah a ki lato na mu uh bangma in, hongpai kik tu hi, ci uh hi.
12 Then returned they vnto Hierusalem from the mount that is called the mount of Oliues, which is neere to Hierusalem, being from it a Sabbath daies iourney.
Tua zawkciang in amate Olive mual pan in Jerusalem ah heakkik uh hi, Olive mual sia Jerusalem pan in sabbath ni pai thei na tan khawng khuala hi.
13 And when they were come in, they went vp into an vpper chamber, where abode both Peter and Iames, and Iohn, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartlemew, and Matthewe, Iames the sonne of Alpheus, and Simon Zelotes, and Iudas Iames brother.
Jerusalem a thet uh ciang in, inn tung doituam ah kato tek uh a, tua mun ah, Peter, James le John, taciang Andrew, Philip le Thomas, Bartholomew le Matthew, Alphaeus tapa James, Simon Zealot, James naupa Judas te om uh hi.
14 These all continued with one accorde in prayer and supplication with the women, and Marie the mother of Iesus, and with his brethren.
Hiteng a vekpi lungkim in nupi te, Jesus nu Mary le a suapui te taw tatsat ngawl in thungen khawm tek uh hi.
15 And in those dayes Peter stoode vp in the middes of the disciples, and sayde (nowe the nomber of names that were in one place were about an hundreth and twentie.)
Taciang in Peter sia a nungzui te, mihing za le kul kiim i laizang ah ding a,
16 Yee men and brethren, this scripture must needes haue beene fulfilled, which the holy Ghost by the mouth of Dauid spake before of Iudas, which was guide to them that tooke Iesus.
U le nau te awng, Tha Thiangtho in David i kam zangin a sonkholsa, Jesus man tute a makai Judas thu taw kisai in hi laithiangtho sia a tangtun hamtang kul hi.
17 For hee was nombred with vs, and had obteined fellowship in this ministration.
Banghangziam cile ama sia eite taw a kisim khawm hi a, hi Pathian nasepna sung ah panmun nga hi.
18 He therefore hath purchased a field with the reward of iniquitie: and when he had throwen downe himselfe headlong, hee brast asunder in the middes, and all his bowels gushed out.
Hisia pa in phatngawlna a vawt man taw lo ciing khat lei hi; taciang a lusuk nuailam in tak in, a pumpi kisantham a, a ngil zong ke keak hi.
19 And it is knowen vnto all the inhabitants of Hierusalem, in so much, that that field is called in their owne language, Aceldama, That is, the field of blood.
Hi thu sia Jerusalem ah a om theampo in he uh a; tua lo sia amate kam in, Akeldama, ci uh hi, a khiakna sia, thisan lo, a cinopna a hihi.
20 For it is written in the booke of Psalmes, Let his habitation be void, and let no man dwel therein: also, Let another take his charge.
Banghangziam cile, Psalm labu sung ah, ama omna mun sia awngthong tahen a, a sung ah kuama om heak tahen: taciang a nasep sia midang in la tahen, ci in ki atkhol hi.
21 Wherefore of these men which haue companied with vs, all the time that the Lord Iesus was conuersant among vs,
Tua ahikom Topa Jesus eite sung ah sungtum le pusuak in a om hunsung theampo ah,
22 Beginning from the baptisme of Iohn vnto the day that hee was taken vp from vs, must one of them bee made a witnesse with vs of his resurrection.
John in tuiphumna a piakpan kipan, eite kung panvan ah a ki lakto ni dong, eite taw a omkhawm te sung pan khatpo sia thawkikna thu eite taw tetti a hi tu in, nasep piak hamtang tu a hihi, ci hi.
23 And they presented two, Ioseph called Barsabas, whose surname was Iustus, and Matthias.
Taciang amate in, Barsabas kici a, Justus zong a kici Joseph le Matthias te ni teal uh hi.
24 And they praied, saying, Thou Lord, which knowest the hearts of all men, shewe whether of these two thou hast chosen,
Amate in, Topa awng, nangma in mi theampo i thinsung na he hi, hi te ni sung pan kua na teal ziam, ci hong lak tan,
25 That he may take the roume of this ministration and Apostleship, from which Iudas hath gone astray, to goe to his owne place.
Tabang in ama in, thunit ngawlna hang in puk a, ama omna mun ah a pai Judas atu in, hi Pathian nasepna le sawltak te sung ah kihel tu hi, ci in thungen khawm uh hi.
26 Then they gaue foorth their lottes: and the lotte fell on Matthias, and hee was by a common consent counted with the eleuen Apostles.
Taciang amate in aisan uh a; aitang sia Matthias tung ah tak hi; taciang ama sia sawltak sawm le khat te taw kisim khawm hi.
