Luke 1
1 SINCE many have attempted to compose a narrative of facts, confirmed to us by the fullest evidence:
Mongnook Thiophilas: Seng laktung ni Rangte mootkaat angta loong ah mina hantek ih lom raangthiin rumta.
2 exactly as they delivered them to us, who were eve witnesses from the first, and ministers of the word;
Neng ih seng suh hephang di tumjih tup rumta loong ah nyia ruurang tumbaatte loong ih mamet baat tahe erah jun ih raang rumta.
3 it seemed right to me also, having obtained accurate knowledge of all things from above, to write to thee in regular order, most excellent Theophilus,
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.
4 to the intent that thou mayest clearly know the certainty of those matters, concerning which thou hast been instructed.
Ngah arah reelang ah langla an ih amiisak tiit nyootsoottu loong ah ejat toom et uh ih raangthiin hang.
5 There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abiah: and his wife of the daughters of Aaron, and her name Elisabeth.
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.
6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
Nengnyi Rangte miksok di toongtang lam ih songtong nyuuta Teesu Hootthe jengdang loong ah naririh et kap nyu ano ah.
7 And they had no child, because Elizabeth was barren, and both were far advanced in years.
Elijabet ah samuh nuh ang tungthoi nengnyi sah uh tajeeta, heh miwah Jekaria nyia heh ah ekuh ekaang ih nyuuta.
8 And it came to pass, as he discharged his priestly office in the order of his periodical ministration before God,
Heh romhoonsa thok kohaano saasiit Jekaria ah Rangteenok ni reeraang paknaata.
9 according to the custom of the priesthood, it fell to his lot to burn the incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.
Romwah loong Hootthe jun ih Rangteenok ni phontumkaang tingtak suh jongteh tootoon rum adi Jekaria men chapta. Eno heh Teesu rangsoom nokmongni wangta
10 And all the multitude of people was praying without, at the time of the burning the incense.
phontumkaang tingtak tok ah chang kano miloong ah taakkhuung ni rangsoom rumta.
11 And an angel of the Lord appeared to him standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
Erah di heh reeni Rangsah ah dongchap taha, jaawako romthong phontumkaang tingtakta rum adi ah.
12 And Zacharias was agitated greatly at the sight, and fear fell upon him.
Jekaria ih erah japtup ano paatjaata eno echo nep eta.
13 But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bring thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John.
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.
14 And it shall give thee joy and exultation; and many shall rejoice at his birth:
Heh tupsa doh tumthan tenroonjih ang ah an raangtaan ih ah, erah damdoh wahoh loong uh tumthan ih tenroon ang ah!
15 for he shall be great in the sight of the Lord; and he shall never drink wine, nor any intoxicating liquor; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother’s womb.
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,
16 And many of the children of Israel shall he turn unto the Lord, their God.
eno heh ih Ijirel mina loong neng Teesu Rangte ko ih ngaak thoksiit ah.
17 And he shall go forth before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to convert the hearts of fathers with their children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to prepare a people ready for the Lord.
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.”
18 And Zacharias said to the angel, By what shall I know this? for I am old, and my wife far advanced in her age.
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.”
19 And the angel answering said to him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and I have been sent to speak to thee, and to proclaim these glad tidings to thee.
“Ngah Gabrel,” Rangsah rah ih ngaakbaatta. “Ngah Rangte pandi chaplang, heh ih ngah an suh arah Ruurang Ese ah baat suh kaat thuk halang.
20 And behold, thou shalt be dumb, and unable to speak, until that day when these things shall come to pass, because thou hast not believed my words, which shall be fulfilled at their exact time.
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.”
21 And the people were waiting for Zacharias, and marvelled that he tarried so long in the temple.
Erah tok adi miloong ah ih Jekaria ah ban sok ruh ih rum ano Rangteenok ni saatang tumjih thaam eha ih paatja rumta.
22 And when he came out, he could not speak to them: and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple: for he himself made signs to them, and continued deaf and dumb.
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.
23 And it came to pass, when the days of his ministry were fulfilled, he went to his own house.
Heh Rangteenok ni rangsoom phansiit saapoot ah thoon ano, Jekaria heh nok ni ngaakwangta.
24 And after those days Elisabeth his wife conceived, and kept herself in retirement five months, saying,
Eno rekam ritdi heh minuh Elijabet rah heh sah dong wokta, eno laabanga heh nok nawa tadok khoomta.
25 Thus hath the Lord dealt with me in the days in which he looked upon me to take away my reproach among men.
Heh ih liita, “Nga Teesu ih hethoondi kok chosok halang. Heh ih ngah noksong dung nah rakri theng taat angtang rah toonhaat ha!”
26 Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God into a city of Galilee, the name of which was Nazareth,
Elijaabet sah la arok wok adi Rangte ih Rangsah Gabrel Galili samnuh Najaret hadaang adi daapkaatta.
27 to a virgin of the house of David, betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph; and the virgin’s name was Mary.
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.
28 And the angel coming in to her said, All hail! O thou highly favoured one! the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.
Rangsah ah ra haano heh suh baatta, “Khooteng toomtong uh! Teesu an damdi heh ih romseetam koh halu!”
29 And when she saw him, she was greatly agitated at his address: and reasoned in herself what kind of salutation this could be.
Meeri ih Rangsah jeng ah chaat ano rapne ih mongsaamta, eno erah jengkhaap ah tumjih suh liita ih paatjaata.
30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary, for thou hast found favour with God.
Rangsah ih liita, “Nakcho uh, Meeri; Rangte ih an minchan ih halu.
31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS.
An sah wokte anglu eno miwasah et tup uh, heh men ah Jisu et men uh.
32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God will give him the throne of David his father;
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,
33 and he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever, and of his kingdom there shall be no end. (aiōn g165)
eno heh ah Jaakob sutoom dowa rootang raang ih luungwang ang ah; Heh hasong ah babah uh lathoon thang angte!” (aiōn g165)
34 And Mary said, How shall this be, seeing I know not man?
Meeri ih Rangsah asuh liita, “Ngah roibaamuh jaalah boh ah. Erah mamah maami ang ah?”
35 And the angel answering said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Most High shall overshadow thee; wherefore also the Holy One that shall be born of thee, shall be called the Son of God.
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.
36 And, behold, Elisabeth thy cousin, she also hath conceived in her old age: and this is the fifth month of pregnancy with her who was called barren.
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.
37 For there is nothing impossible with God.
Rangte lajen reejih tumjih uh tajeeka.”
38 Then said Mary, Behold a servant of the Lord, be it to me according to thy declaration. And the angel departed from her.
“Ngah ah Teesu laksuh,” Meeri ih liita; “An ih baattu jun ih toom ang raaha nga sak nah ah.” Eno Rangsah ah mat khoomta.
39 Then Mary arose in those days, and went with haste into the hill country, to a city of Judah,
Erah lilih Meeri phangla ih kong akaan deek Judia ko nah kaat suh dokchapta.
40 and entered into the house of Zachariah, and saluted Elisabeth.
Heh Jekaria nok ni nop kah ano Elijabet suh jengseeraata.
41 And it came to pass, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped for joy in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost:
Elijabet ih Meeri jengseeraata ah japchaat damdam, heh mong nawa noodek ah jaapmota. Elijabet ah Esa Chiiala pan angta
42 and she exclaimed with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.
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!
43 And whence is this favour shewn me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
Arathan elong ah nga taang ni mame ang raak kohala, Teesu nuh anep nga jiinni jen chomui jih ah?
44 For, lo! as the voice of thy salutation reached my ears, the babe leaped for joy in my womb.
An jengseera ah japchaat damdam, nga mong nawa noodek ah nep roon ano wookla.
45 And blessed is she that hath believed; for there shall be a fulfilment of the things told her from the Lord.
Teesu jengkhaap ah ansak nah amiisak ih ang raaha ih hanpi thoidoh an tumthan ih tenroonte anglu!”
46 And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord,
Meeri ih liita, “Nga ten ih Teesu ah phoong ha;
47 and my spirit hath exulted in God my Saviour:
nga pangte Rangte suh nga la roonla,
48 for he hath looked upon the lowly state of his maid-servant: for, lo! henceforth shall all generations pronounce me blessed.
tumeah heh ih ngah, ehin laksuh ah dokthun thoi ah! aadowa ih miloong ah ih ngah suh tenroon mina et poonhang,
49 For the Mighty One hath done great things for me; and holy is his name.
tumeah Chaan apaan Rangte ih nga raang ih elongthoon moot ah reekot thoih ah. Heh men ah Esa;
50 And his mercy is upon those who fear him, from generation to generation.
roosiit tokkhodi roosiit Heh ih heh soomtuute asuh minchan noisok ha.
51 He hath displayed strength from his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
Heh ih chaan apaan pan lak ah janghaat ano engaam ete loong nyia neng tenthun mongtham ah phaang thukla.
52 He hath cast down potentates from the throne, and hath exalted the lowly.
Heh ih chaan apaan luungwang loong ah neng tongtheng nawa dattong thuk ano; ehin loong ah toonjoh ah.
53 He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away.
Heh ih ramtekte suh phaksat ese koha, eno changteng loong ah lak huung daap haat ha.
Heh ih sengte sengwah suh kakham thiinta rah reeta, eno heh laksuh Ijirel ah chosok ra hala.
55 as he had spoken to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed.
Heh ih sengte Abraham nyia heh sutoom satoom loong asuh, rootang raang ih minchan noisokta ah samthunha!” (aiōn g165)
56 And Mary abode with her about three months, and returned unto her home.
Meeri ah Elijabet damdi laajom roongtongta eno heh nok ni ngaakwangta.
57 Now Elisabeth’s time was up that she should be delivered; and she brought a son.
Elijabet sah tup rangwuung thok haano, heh sah ah miwasah ih tupta.
58 And her neighbours and her relations heard, that the Lord had magnified his mercy upon her; and they congratulated her.
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.
59 And it came to pass, on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child; and they called him after the name of his father, Zacharias.
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.
60 And his mother spake and said, No; but he shall be called John.
Enoothong heh nuh ih liita, “Tah angka! Heh men Joon et men theng.”
61 And they said to her, There is not one among thy relations, who is called by this name.
Eno neng ih heh nuh asuh baat rumta, “Enoothong erah bah ante anwah men tah angka!”
62 And they made signs to his father, what he would have him called.
Eno neng ih heh wah suh neng tokmoot damdi cheng rumta, an ih mamet men ih doh se ah ih thunhu.
63 And desiring a writing tablet, he wrote, saying, John is his name. And they were all surprised.
Jekaria ih eraangtheng jonglo ah suh ano, raangta, “heh men ah Joon.” Eno mirep rapne ih paatja rumta!
64 Instantly then his mouth was opened, and his tongue loosed, and he burst out in praises to God.
Erah tok adi Jekaria we mi dongjengta, eno Rangte rang ah phoongta.
65 And great awe fell on all those who dwelt around them: and in all the mountainous country of Judea, all these circumstances were the subject of conversation.
Hekhuung hetok joonte loong ah neng cho dongta, eno erah ruurang ah Judia hah kong akaan noongrep ni thok ruurang kata.
66 And all who heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, Well! what a child will this be! And the hand of the Lord was with him.
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.
67 And Zacharias his father was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying,
Joon wah Jekaria ah Esa Chiiala pan angta, eno heh ih Rangte jengkhaap ah baatta:
68 Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel; for he hath visited and wrought redemption for his people;
“Seng Teesu ah phoong ih Ijirel Rangte rah ah! Heh mina loong pang raangtaan ih ra taha eno neng ah puipangta.
69 and hath raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David:
Heh ih seng suh chaan aphaan pan Khopiipangte kojah hali, Heh laksuh Dewid sutoom dowa ah.
Heh ih teewadi esa khowah loong damdi thoom hoonta (aiōn g165)
71 even preservation from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us;
Heh ih seng piiara nawa panghe, seng miksukte hang achaan nawa jen toonpang raang ih ah.
72 to perform mercy towards our fathers, and to remember his own holy covenant:
Heh ih liita sengte sengwah loong ah heh ih tenthet et ah eno heh ih esa nuumiijeng ah dokthun ah.
73 the oath which he sware to Abraham our father,
Sengte sengwah Abraham, suh kakhamta Heh ih seng piiara loong nawa pang et he eno seng ah heh mootkaat ah lacho thang ih moh thuk he,
74 to give us, that we, secure from fear, rescued from the hands of our enemies, should serve him,
75 in righteousness and holiness before him, all the days of our life.
eno ba seng ah heh ngah nah esa nyi epun jen ang ih seng roidong tang ih ah.
76 And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Most High; for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways;
“Nga sah, an ah, Elong Echoong Rangte khowah ih poonho. An Teesu nganah kah uno heh raangtaan ih lam ban tan kah uh,
77 to give the knowledge of salvation to his people, by the remission of their sins,
heh mina loong suh neng rangdah loong ah biin anaan rum ano neng khopui tiit ah baat suh ah.
78 through the bowels of mercy of our God; with which he hath visited us, as the dawn of the morning from on high,
Seng Rangte ah minchan nyia tenthet Rangte. Heh ih khopiiroidong ah rangsa phaakla likhiik ih phaak thukla,
79 to illumine those who sat in darkness, and in the shadow of death, to direct our feet into the way of peace.
eno rang nawa ih warep kaangtook ah laamang nyia etek lampo ni tongte loong rah ah, seng khooteng lampo nah khoom thuk raangtaan ih ah.”
80 And the child grew, and became mighty in spirit, and was in the deserts until the days of his public exhibition to Israel.
Noodek ah hansi nyia chiiala ni rongtangtang ih hakta. Ijirel noksong damdi chomui suh rangwuung maang thokthok Joon ah woma mong ni tongta.
