Luke 1
1 Forasmuch as many haue taken in hand to set foorth the storie of those things, whereof we are fully persuaded,
Ka püi Theophiluh aw; ajana thawn khawikia mawng cun, khyang khawjah naw mi ksunga pyena ngthu yu khai hea ana ktha na khawiki he.
2 As they haue deliuered them vnto vs, which from the beginning saw them their selues, and were ministers of ye word,
Akcüka ana hmu u lü ngthu ana sang khawiki he naw mi veia ami pyen ana yuki he.
3 It seemed good also to me (most noble Theophilus) assoone as I had searched out perfectly all things from the beginning, to write vnto thee thereof from point to point,
Acunakyase nang angvai aw, angsinga ka ngaihkyu käna, acuna mawng cun, angsinga na hama yuk üng daw khaia ngaikyu veng.
4 That thou mightest acknowledge the certaintie of those things, whereof thou hast bene instructed.
Ajana ngthu ami ning mthei he cen ngthungtak ni ti na ksingnak vaia ka yuka kyaki ni.
5 In the time of Herod King of Iudea, there was a certaine Priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabet.
Judah khawa sangpuxang Herod a bawi kcün üng, ktaiyü Abijaha khuikyawng üngka ktaiyü mat Zakharih ngming naki awmki; acun naw ktaiyüa khuikyawng üngka a khyunak, a ngming cun Elizabeta kyaki.
6 Both were iust before God, and walked in all the commandements and ordinances of the Lord, without reproofe.
Ani nghngih Pamhnama mik hmuha akdawa xüngseiki xawi, pyen vai am hlü khaia Bawipa ngthupet la, ngthummkhän avan läki xawi.
7 And they had no childe, because that Elisabet was barren: and both were well stricken in age.
Elizabet cingkia kyase am ca ni lü, aktäa xüki xawi.
8 And it came to passe, as he executed the Priestes office before God, as his course came in order,
Mhmüp mat üng Zakharih cun ktaiyüa khüih khawia kba Pamhnama Temple k'uma a khüih k'um üng,
9 According to the custome of the Priests office, his lot was to burne incense, when he went into the Temple of the Lord.
ktaiyüa thuma Bawipa Temple k'uma lut lü, ng'uinghnam mkhih khaia xüa kyaki.
10 And the whole multitude of the people were without in prayer, while the incense was burning.
Acunüng, ng'uinghnam a mkhih k'um üng khyang he ami van kpunga ktaiyüki he.
11 Then appeared vnto him an Angel of the Lord standing at the right side of the altar of incense.
Acunüng, Bawipa khankhawngsä mat Zakhariha veia ngdang law lü, ng'uinghnam mkhihnaka kpat lama ngdüi lawki.
12 And when Zacharias sawe him, he was troubled, and feare fell vpon him.
Zakharih naw khankhawngsä a hmuh üng kyüh lü ngxetki.
13 But the Angel saide vnto him, Feare not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard, and thy wise Elisabet shall beare thee a sonne, and thou shalt call his name Iohn.
Acunüng, khankhawngsä naw, “Zakharih, ä kyüa, na ktaiyünak ngjak pänga kya ve, acunakyase na khyu Elizabet naw cangpyang mat ca na se, Johana na sui khai.
14 And thou shalt haue ioy and gladnes, and many shall reioyce at his birth.
Nang jekyai lü na hlim khai, khyang khawjah ania hmi lawa phäha jekyai khai he.
15 For he shalbe great in the sight of the Lord, and shall neither drinke wine, nor strong drinke: and he shalbe filled with the holy Ghost, euen from his mothers wombe.
Ani cun Bawipa ngaiha kyäp khai, ju naki i am ei aw khai. A nua puk k'um üng tün lü ngcimcaihkia ngmüimkhya am be khai.
16 And many of the children of Israel shall he turne to their Lord God.
Acunüng ani naw Isarela ca he khawjah, ami Bawipa Pamhnama veia jah nghlat sak be khai.
17 For he shall goe before him in the spirite and power of Elias, to turne the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisedome of the iust men, to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
Ani naw pa he la ca he alanga jah lawpüi be lü, am cingcaihki he ngsungpyunak ksingnaka lam üng jah nghlat sak be lü, khyang he Pamhnama phäha jah ngtünngceisak khai, Elijaha ngmüimkhya la khyaihbahnak am Pamhnama maa cit khai,” a ti.
18 Then Zacharias said vnto ye Angel, Whereby shall I knowe this? for I am an olde man, and my wife is of a great age.
Acunüng Zakharih naw khankhawngsä üng, “Ikba acun ka ksing vai aw? Kei pakse ni, ka xü pängki, ka khyu pi nukpüi lü, a khawkum xü pängki ni,” a ti.
19 And the Angell answered, and sayde vnto him, I am Gabriel that stand in the presence of God, and am sent to speake vnto thee, and to shew thee these good tidings.
Khankhawngsä naw, “Kei Kabriel, Pamhnama ma ngdüikia ka kyaki, nanga veia hina jekyainaka ngthu lawpüi khaia tüih lawa ka kyaki.
20 And beholde, thou shalt be domme, and not be able to speake, vntill the day that these things be done, because thou beleeuedst not my words, which shalbe fulfilled in their season.
Cunsepi Ngaia, ka ngthu akcün üng kümkawi law khai am na juma phäha, hina ka ngthu am a kümkawi law ham üng am ngthuhei thei lü, na ang khai,” a ti.
21 Now the people waited for Zacharias, and marueiled that he taried so long in the Temple.
Khyang he Zakharih kpunga ana ngängki he, Temple k'uma a di lawa phäha aktäa cäiki he.
22 And when hee came out, hee coulde not speake vnto them: then they perceiued that hee had seene a vision in the Temple: For he made signes vnto them, and remained domme.
Acunüng, a luh law be üng ami veia am ngthuhei thei lü, a kut am jah kha hü se, Temple k'uma mdannak hmukia ami ksing.
23 And it came to passe, when the daies of his office were fulfilled, that he departed to his owne house.
Acunüng, ktaiyü a binaka kcün ngpäng se a ima cit beki.
24 And after those daies, his wife Elisabet conceiued, and hid her selfe fiue moneths, saying,
Acunkäna a khyu Elizabet m’yai law lü im k'uma khya mhma ngküpki.
25 Thus hath the Lord dealt with me, in the daies wherein he looked on me, to take from me my rebuke among men.
Acunüng Elizabet naw “Khyang hea ami na ksekhanak Pamhnam naw na kpüi lü a na lawhin pet ni,” a ti.
26 And in the sixth moneth, the Angell Gabriel was sent from God vnto a citie of Galile, named Nazareth,
Acunüng, akhya khyuk üng Pamhnam naw khankhawngsä Kabriel Kalile khaw, Nazareta a tüih.
27 To a virgin affianced to a man whose name was Ioseph, of the house of Dauid, and the virgins name was Marie.
Acuna nglami cun Davita pakhui üngka, Josep ngming nakia khyu vaia ami mkhyäpa kyaki. Nglamia ngming cun Marih naki.
28 And the Angel went in vnto her, and said, Haile thou that art freely beloued: the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.
Acunüng, khankhawngsä naw Mariha veia lut lü, “Pamhnama hlüei la jekyainak, dim’yenak am awma, Pamhnam na veia awm ve, nghnumi he avan üng na josen säih ve,” a ti.
29 And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and thought what maner of salutation that should be.
Acuna khankhawngsäng naw i a ti hlünak am ksing lü aktäa cäi lü kyüki.
30 Then the Angel saide vnto her, Feare not, Marie: for thou hast found fauour with God.
Acunüng, khankhawngsä naw, “Marih aw, ä kyüa; Pamhnam na veia dawki ni,
31 For loe, thou shalt conceiue in thy wobe, and beare a sonne, and shalt call his name Iesus.
m’yai lü, kpamica na ca khai, a ngming Jesuha na sui khai.
32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Sonne of the most High, and the Lord God shall giue vnto him the throne of his father Dauid.
Ani cun kyäpsawk law se, ak'hlüng säiha Capa ti khai he, Bawipa Pamhnam naw a pu Davita mäiha sangpuxanga pawh law khai.
33 And hee shall reigne ouer the house of Iacob for euer, and of his kingdome shall bee none ende. (aiōn g165)
Ani naw Jakopa mjü he angläta jah uk se, a khaw am düt khai ni,” a ti. (aiōn g165)
34 Then sayde Marie vnto the Angel, How shall this be, seeing I knowe not man?
Marih naw, khankhawngsä üng, “Kei am ka ceimahki hin ikba acunkba kya thei khai aw?” a ti.
35 And the Angel answered, and said vnto her, The holy Ghost shall come vpon thee, and the power of the most High shall ouershadowe thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall bee borne of thee, shall be called the Sonne of God.
Khankhawngsä naw msang lü, “Ngmüimkhya Ngcim na khana pha law se, hlüng säihkia johit naw ning hlawp tawm law khai, acunakyase hmi law khaia khyang ngcim pi Mhnama Capa ti khai he.
36 And behold, thy cousin Elisabet, she hath also conceiued a sonne in her olde age: and this is her sixt moneth, which was called barren.
Acunüng ngaia, cingki ami ti khawi na püi Elizabet pi a xü käna kpamica m’yai na se atuh khya khyuk law pängki.
37 For with God shall nothing be vnpossible.
Pamhnama am a ti thei i am awm naw,” a ti.
38 Then Marie said, Behold the seruant of the Lord: be it vnto me according to thy woorde. So the Angel departed from her.
Marih naw, “Kei Bawipa ana m’ya nu ni, na ngthua kba ka khana kya kawm,” ti se, acunüng khankhawngsä naw a ceh tak.
39 And Marie arose in those daies, and went into ye hil countrey with hast to a citie of Iuda,
Acunüng, Marih tho law lü, angxita mcunga awmkia mlüh, Judah khawnu mata cit lü,
40 And entred into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabet.
Zakhariha ima lutki naw, Elizabet a hnukset.
41 And it came to passe, as Elisabet heard the salutation of Marie, the babe sprang in her bellie, and Elisabet was filled with the holy Ghost.
Acunüng, Elizabet naw Marih a hnukset a sim la, a puk k'uma naca ngsün law se, Elizabet ngmüimkhya Ngcim am be law lü,
42 And she cried with a loud voice, and saide, Blessed art thou among women, because the fruit of thy wombe is blessed.
angsanga, “Nghnumi he avan üng na jo sen säih ve, na canak vai pi a jo sen ve!
43 And whence commeth this to mee, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
Ka Bawipaa nu, ka veia na lawnak sen vaia ta ia ngjo ni?
44 For loe, assoone as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine eares, the babe sprang in my bellie for ioye,
Na na hnuksetnak ka hnga üng a luh la hnasen jekyai lü ka k'uma ngsün ve.
45 And blessed is shee that beleeued: for those things shall be perfourmed, which were tolde her from the Lord.
Jumeikia nghnumi pi a jo sen ve, isetiakyaküng a veia Bawipa naw ngthu a pyen he cun kümkawi law khai hea akya phäha kyaki” a ti.
46 Then Marie sayde, My soule magnifieth the Lord,
Acunüng Marih naw, “Ka mlungmthin naw Bawipa mküimto ve;
47 And my spirite reioyceth in God my Sauiour.
ka ngmüimkhya pi na küikyankia Pamhnama khana aktäa jekyai ve,
48 For hee hath looked on the poore degree of his seruaunt: for beholde, from henceforth shall all ages call me blessed,
a na m'yanua hnemnak hmu lü, na süm ve; atuh üng tün lü, khyang avan naw a jo senki na ti na khai he.
49 Because hee that is mightie, hath done for me great things, and holy is his Name.
Akyan säih naw ka khana akyäp säih na pawh pe ve, A ngming pi, ngcimcaiki ni;
50 And his mercie is from generation to generation on them that feare him.
A m’yeneinak cun angsawn täh se amät kyühki hea khana awmsaki.
51 Hee hath shewed strength with his arme: hee hath scattered the proude in the imagination of their hearts.
“A ban am a kyannak mdang lü, khyang awhcaki he cun ami ngaikyunak am akcea a jah ngtaisak.
52 Hee hath put downe the mighty from their seates, and exalted them of lowe degree.
“Ami bawingawhnak üng ngawki hea bawi he a hnemnaka jah khya lü, ami mlung hnemsaki he a jah mhlünmtai.
53 Hee hath filled the hungrie with good things, and sent away the rich emptie.
“Ami ei cawiki he, akdaw am jah kphü lü, bawimangki he, ami kut xawnga a jah tüih.
54 Hee hath vpholden Israel his seruaunt to be mindefull of his mercie
“Mi pupa he, a jah na khyütamnakpüi kümkawisak lü, a m'ya Isarel he jah kpüi khaia law ve.
A jah m'yeneinak Abraham la a ngsawn hea veia angläta süm ve” a ti. (aiōn g165)
56 And Marie abode with her about three moneths: after, shee returned to her owne house.
Acunüng Marih, Elizabeta veia khya kthum awm lü a ima cit beki.
57 Nowe Elisabets time was fulfilled, that shee should be deliuered, and shee brought foorth a sonne.
Elizabet na a hmi vai kha law se, kpamicaa caki.
58 And her neighbours, and cousins heard tell howe the Lord had shewed his great mercie vpon her, and they reioyced with her.
A impeiloceng he la, a paca he naw, Pamhnam naw a m'yenei ni ti ksing u lü, aktäa ami jekyaipüi.
59 And it was so that on the eight day they came to circumcise the babe, and called him Zacharias after the name of his father.
Acunüng pat mat küm se, naca a vun mawih vaia law u lü, a ngming a pa ngminga kba Zakhariha sui vaia ami bü.
60 But his mother answered, and saide, Not so, but he shalbe called Iohn.
Acunüng a nu naw, “Ka! Johana sui vai,” a ti.
61 And they saide vnto her, There is none of thy kindred, that is named with this name.
Acunüng amimi naw, “Na ngsawn, na khui üngka, acunkba ngming naki u am ve khawi naw,” ami ti.
62 Then they made signes to his father, howe he would haue him called.
Acunüng a pa ami kut am, “A ngming ua sui üng daw khai aw?” tia ami kthäh.
63 So hee asked for writing tables, and wrote, saying, His name is Iohn, and they marueiled all.
Zakharih naw, a yuknak vai lungphek kthäh lü, “A ngming Johan,” ti lü yu se, ami van cäi lawki he.
64 And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue, and he spake and praised God.
Acunüng angxita ngthuhei law be thei lü Pamhnam mküimto lawki.
65 Then feare came on all them that dwelt neere vnto them, and all these woordes were noised abroade throughout all the hill countrey of Iudea.

66 And al they that heard them, laid them vp in their hearts, saying, What maner childe shall this be! and the hand of the Lord was with him.

67 Then his father Zacharias was filled with the holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying,
Johana pa Zakharih cun ngmüimkhya Ngcim am be lü,
68 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, because he hath visited and redeemed his people,
“Isarel hea Bawipa Pamhnam cun mi mhlünmtai vai, a khyang he jah law si lü, jah mhlät be ve,
69 And hath raised vp the horne of saluation vnto vs, in the house of his seruant Dauid,

73 And the othe which he sware to our father Abraham.

74 Which was, that he would graunt vnto vs, that we being deliuered out of the handes of our enemies, should serue him without feare,
