< John 1 >
1 In the beginning was that Word, and that Word was with God, and that Word was God.
A kipatcil in Thu om hi, tua thu sia Pathian taw omkhawm a, tua Thu in Pathian a hihi.
2 This same was in the beginning with God.
Tua thu sia a kipatcil in Pathian taw omkhawm hi.
3 All things were made by it, and without it was made nothing that was made.
Na theampo Ama vawt a hihi; a kivawt theampo sung ah Ama kihel ngawl in a kivawt khatzong a om bua hi.
4 In it was life, and that life was the light of men.
Ama sung ah nuntakna om a; tua nuntakna sia mihing te i khuavak a hihi.
5 And that light shineth in the darkenesse, and the darkenesse comprehended it not.
Taciang khuavak sia khuazing sung ah tang a; khuazing in Ama a he bua hi.
6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was Iohn.
Pathian kungpan hong ki sawl mi khat om a, ama min sia John a hihi.
7 This same came for a witnesse, to beare witnesse of that light, that all men through him might beleeue.
John sia tetti tu in hongpai a, mi theampo in ama tungtawn in a up thei natu, khuavak tettipang tu in hongpai hi.
8 He was not that light, but was sent to beare witnesse of that light.
Ama sia tua Khuavak hi ngawl hi, ahihang tua Khuavak tettipang tu in a ki sawl a hihi.
9 This was that true light, which lighteth euery man that commeth into the world.
Tasia sia Khuavak tatak hi a, mi theampo taan tu in hi leitung ah hongpai hi.
10 He was in the world, and the worlde was made by him: and the worlde knewe him not.
Ama sia leitung ah om a, leitung sia Ama vawtsa a hihi, taciang leitung in Ama a he bua hi.
11 He came vnto his owne, and his owne receiued him not.
Ama minam te kung ah hongpai napi, a minam te in Ama a sang bua hi.
12 But as many as receiued him, to them he gaue prerogatiue to be the sonnes of God, euen to them that beleeue in his Name.
Ahihang a sang te theampo tung ah, Pathian tapa sua na vangletna pia hi, tua te sia Ama min a umte a hihi:
13 Which are borne not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of ye wil of man, but of God.
Ama te sia thisan, ci le sa deina, le mihing deina tungtawn in a piang a hi bua uh hi, ahihang Pathian deina tungtawn in a piang a hihi.
14 And that Word was made flesh, and dwelt among vs, (and we sawe the glorie thereof, as the glorie of the onely begotten Sonne of the Father) full of grace and trueth.
Tua thu sia ci le sa in hong ki vawt a, taciang thuthiamna le thutak taw kidim in eite sung ah hong om a, Pa i Tapa a neisun minthanna bang in a minthanna i mu hi.
15 Iohn bare witnesse of him, and cryed, saying, This was he of whom I said, He that commeth after me, was before me: for he was better then I.
John in Ama thu tettipang in a au na aw sia, ka nung pan hongpai pa sia kei sang in thupi zaw hi: banghangziam cile Ama sia kei pian ma in om zo hi: A thu ka sason sia Ama a hihi, ci hi.
16 And of his fulnesse haue all we receiued, and grace for grace.
Ama kicinna pan in i vekpi in hesuakna khat zawkciang khat i sang tato hi.
17 For the Lawe was giuen by Moses, but grace, and trueth came by Iesus Christ.
Banghangziam cile thukham sia Moses tungtawn in hong kipia hi, ahihang thuthiamna le thutak ahile Jesus Christ tungtawn in hongpai hi.
18 No man hath seene God at any time: that onely begotten Sonne, which is in the bosome of the Father, he hath declared him.
Kuama in Pathian sia bangmahun in mu ngei ngawl hi; Pa kangsung ah a om khatbek a nei a Tapa in, Pa thu hong tangko zo hi.
19 Then this is the record of Iohn, when the Iewes sent Priestes and Leuites from Hierusalem, to aske him, Who art thou?
Hi thu sia, nang sia a kua ni ziam? ci dong tu in Judah te in thiampi te le Levite te Jerusalem pan a sawl uh ciang in, John i a cepte thu a hihi.
20 And he confessed and denied not, and said plainely, I am not that Christ.
John in nial peuma ngawl in, keima sia Christ hi ngawl khi hi; ci in pualak hi.
21 And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he said, I am not. Art thou that Prophet? And he answered, No.
Amate in, tua a hile a kua ni ziam? Elijah ni ziam? ci in dong uh hi. Taciang John in, hi ngawl khi hi, ci hi. Amate in, kamsang tasia ni ziam? ci in a dok leleau uh ciang in, hi ngawl khi hi, ci in zo hi.
22 Then said they vnto him, Who art thou, that we may giue an answere to them that sent vs? What sayest thou of thy selfe?
Amate in, nang a kua ni ziam? tua hile hong sawl te kung ah son thei tu khu hi. Nangma le nangma kua ka hi ci ni ziam? ci uh hi.
23 He said, I am the voyce of him that cryeth in the wildernesse, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the Prophet Esaias.
John in, kamsang Isaiah sonkholsa bang in, Topa i lampi tangsak vun, ci in ngamsung pan a au Aw ka hihi, ci hi.
24 Nowe they which were sent, were of the Pharises.
Amate sia Pharisee te in sawl in a paisak te a hi uh hi.
25 And they asked him, and saide vnto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, neither Elias, nor that Prophet?
Amate in, Christ na hi bua a, Elijah le hi ngawl, kamsang le hi tuan ngawl napi, banghang in tuiphumna pia ni ziam? ci in dong uh hi.
26 Iohn answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there is one among you, whom ye knowe not.
John in, keima in tui taw tuiphumna kong pia hi: ahihang na heak ngawl uh mi khat note sung ah ding nginge hi;
27 He it is that commeth after me, which was before me, whose shoe latchet I am not worthie to vnloose.
Ama sia, ka nung pan hongpai a, kei sang in thupi zaw hi, kei sia a peangdap khau sutsak tu zong ka kilawm bua hi, ci hi.
28 These things were done in Bethabara beyond Iordan, where Iohn did baptize.
Hi thu te sia John in tuiphumna a piak na mun, Jordan ngun ngal Bethabara ah a sep thu a hihi.
29 The next day Iohn, seeth Iesus comming vnto him, and saith, Beholde that Lambe of God, which taketh away the sinne of the world.
A zingciang in John in Jesus a kung ah hongpai mu a, en vun, leitung mawna a pua Pathian Tuuno.
30 This is he of whom I saide, After me commeth a man, which was before me: for he was better then I.
Hi sia pa sia, ka nung pan hongpai a, kei sang in thupi zaw hi: banghangziam cile kei pian ma in om zo hi, ci ka son sia Ama a hihi.
31 And I knewe him not: but because he should be declared to Israel, therefore am I come, baptizing with water.
Ama ka he bua hi: ahihang Ama sia Israel te tung ah kilangsak tu hi, tua ahikom keima hongpai in tui taw tuiphumna pia khi hi.
32 So Iohn bare recorde, saying, I behelde that Spirit come downe from heauen, like a doue, and it abode vpon him,
Taciang John in ceptena tettipang a, Thaa sia vantung pan vakhu bang in tuaksuk a, Ama tung ah a tu ka mu hi.
33 And I knewe him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, he saide vnto me, Vpon whom thou shalt see that Spirit come downe, and tary still on him, that is he which baptizeth with the holy Ghost.
Ama ka he bua hi: ahihang tui taw tuiphumna pia tu in, hong sawl sia in, Ama tung ah Thaa hong tuaksuk tu a, tua na mu uh sia sia, Tha Thiangtho taw tuiphumna pia tu pa hi, ci in hong son hi.
34 And I sawe, and bare record that this is that Sonne of God.
Ama ka mu zo a, hisia pa sia Pathian Tapa a hihi, ci in ceptena tettipang khi hi, ci hi.
35 The next day, Iohn stoode againe, and two of his disciples.
A zingciang in John le a nungzui ni te hong dingkik uh a;
36 And he behelde Iesus walking by, and said, Beholde that Lambe of God.
Jesus hongpai a mu ciang in, en vun Pathian Tuuno! ci hi.
37 And the two disciples heard him speake, and followed Iesus.
Taciang nungzui nite in tua thu a zak uh ciang, Jesus nung zui uh hi.
38 Then Iesus turned about, and saw them follow, and saide vnto them, What seeke ye? And they saide vnto him, Rabbi (which is to say by interpretation, Master) where dwellest thou?
Tua zawkciang in Jesus in a nungsang le-et a, amate i zui a mu ciang, amate tung ah, Bang zong nu ziam? ci hi. Amate in, Rabbi awng koisung ah om ni ziam? ci uh hi. Rabbi a khiakna sia syapa awng, a cinopna a hihi.
39 He saide vnto them, Come, and see. They came and sawe where hee dwelt, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth houre.
Jesus in amate tung ah, Hongpai tavun a hong en tavun, ci hi. Amate hongpai uh a, a omna mun mu uh hi, taciang tua ni sia Ama taw omkhawm uh hi: banghangziam cile a hun sia nitak sang nai li pawl a hihi.
40 Andrew, Simon Peters brother, was one of the two which had heard it of Iohn, and that followed him.
John i son thu a za mihing ni te sung ah khat sia Simon Peter suapui pa, Andrew a hihi.
41 The same founde his brother Simon first, and said vnto him, We haue founde that Messias, which is by interpretation, that Christ.
A masaphit in a u Simon taw ki si uh a, ko Messiah taw ki mu zo khu hi, ci son hi. Messiah a khiakna sia Christ a ci nopna hi.
42 And he brought him to Iesus. And Iesus behelde him, and saide, Thou art Simon the sonne of Iona: thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, a stone.
Ama in Jesus kung ah paipui hi. Jesus in ama a et ciang in, Nangma sia Jonah i tapa Simon na hihi: nang sia Cephas hong kici tu hi, ci hi, Cephas a khiakna sia suangpi a cinopna a hihi.
43 The day following, Iesus woulde goe into Galile, and founde Philip, and said vnto him, Followe me.
A zingciang in Jesus sia Galilee ah pai nuam hi, taciang Philip taw ki si a, ama kung ah, Hong zui tan, ci hi.
44 Nowe Philip was of Bethsaida, the citie of Andrew and Peter.
Philip sia Bethsaida khua mi hi a, Andrew le Peter te i khua a hihi.
45 Philippe founde Nathanael, and saide vnto him, Wee haue founde him of whom Moses did write in the Lawe, and the Prophetes, Iesus that sonne of Ioseph, that was of Nazareth.
Philip sia Nathanael taw ki mu a, ama kung ah, Moses i thukham sung le kamsang te in a atkholsa, Joseph tapa Nazareth mi Jesus sia mu zo khu hi, ci hi.
46 Then Nathanael sayde vnto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saide to him, Come, and see.
Taciang Nathanael in, Nazareth khua pan na pha piang thei na ziam? ci hi. Philip in, hongpai tan a, en in, ci hi.
47 Iesus sawe Nathanael comming to him, and saide of him, Beholde in deede an Israelite, in whom is no guile.
Jesus in Nathanael hongpai a mu ciang in, En vun, Israel mi tatak a hihi, a sung ah theamna om ngawl hi! ci hi.
48 Nathanael sayde vnto him, Whence knewest thou mee? Iesus answered, and sayd vnto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast vnder the figge tree, I sawe thee.
Nathanael in, bangbang in hong he thei ni ziam? ci hi. Jesus in, Philip in nang hong sap ma theikung nuai ah na to laitak in, kong mu zo hi, ci hi.
49 Nathanael answered, and saide vnto him, Rabbi, thou art that Sonne of God: thou art that King of Israel.
Nathanael in, Rabbi, nangma sia Pathian Tapa na hihi; nangma sia Israel Kumpi na hihi, ci hi.
50 Iesus answered, and sayde vnto him, Because I sayde vnto thee, I sawe thee vnder the figtree, beleeuest thou? thou shalt see greater things then these.
Jesus in, Theikung nuai ah na to laitak kong mu hi, ka ci hang in hong um ni ziam? Hi te sang in a lianzaw nate na mu lai tu hi, ci in zo kik hi.
51 And he saide vnto him, Verely, verely I say vnto you, hereafter shall yee see heauen open, and the Angels of God ascending, and descending vpon that Sonne of man.
Jesus in ama kung ah, Amantak in kong ci hi, a ngei ngawl in van a ki hong na mu tu a, mihing Tapa tung ah Pathian i vantungmi te a tuaksuk le a kato na mu tu hi, ci hi.
