Luke 1
1 Inasmuch as many undertook to draw up a narration concerning the accomplished among us things,
Aicae salakah kaom tangtang hmuen kawng thuihaih maeto pacoeng maeto kamtomh poe ah suek hanah paroeai ca tarik kaminawk oh o boeh,
2 even as delivered [them] to us those from [the] beginning eyewitnesses and servants having been of the word,
nihcae loe tangsuek na hoi hnukung ah oh o, tamthanglok toksah kaminawk mah, aicae khae thuih ih lok baktih toengah;
3 it seemed good also to me also to me having been acquainted from the first with all things carefully with method to you to write, most excellent Theophilus,
kahoih koek Theophila, tangsuek na hoi kaom hmuennawk to kakoep ah thaikop boih moe, hmuen kaom maeto pacoeng maeto kamtomh poe ah, nangcae khaeah tarik nahaeloe hoi tih, tiah poekhaih ka tawnh,
4 so that you may know concerning which you were instructed [of the] things the certainty.
to tiah ni ang patuk o ih lok to kahoihah na panoek o tih.
5 There was in the days of Herod (*k*) king of Judea a priest certain named Zechariah of [the] division of Abijah, and (the *k*) wife (of him *N(k)O*) of the daughters of Aaron and the name of her Elizabeth.
Judea siangpahrang, Herod dung ah, Zakaria, tiah ahmin kaom qaima maeto oh, anih loe Abijah ih acaeng ah oh moe, a zu Elizabeth loe Aaron ih acaeng ah oh.
6 They were now righteous both (in front of *N(k)O*) God walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
Nihnik loe Sithaw hmaa ah katoeng kami ah oh hoi moe, Angraeng mah paek ih kaalok hoi sak han koi toknawk boih coek koi kaom ai ah a sak hoi.
7 And no there was to them child, inasmuch as was Elizabeth barren and both having advanced in the years of them were.
Elizabeth loe caa kak pongah nawkta tawn hoi ai, nihnik loe saning coeh hoi parai boeh.
8 It came to pass now in the priestly serving of him in the order of the division of him before God,
Anih mah angmah ih kaminawk hoi Sithaw hmaa ah qaima toksakhaih tue phak naah,
9 according to the custom of the priesthood the lot picked [him as] the [one] to burn incense entering into the temple of the Lord;
qaimanawk mah sakzong ih atawk baktih toengah, Angraeng tempul thungah akun moe, hmuihoih thlaekhaih loe anih ih tok ah oh.
10 And all the multitude were of the people praying outside at the hour of the incense.
Hmuihoih thlaek nathuem ah, paroeai kaminawk loe tasa bangah lawkthuih o.
11 Appeared then to him an angel of [the] Lord already standing at [the] right of the altar of the incense;
To naah anih khaeah Angraeng ih van kami maeto amtueng moe, hmuihoih thlaekhaih hmaicam bantang bangah angdoet pae.
12 And was troubled Zechariah having seen [him], and fear fell upon him.
Zakaria mah anih to hnuk naah zit moe, tasoehhaih hoiah oh.
13 Said then to him the angel; Not do fear Zechariah; because has been heard the prayer of you, and the wife of You Elizabeth will bear a son to you, and you will call the name of him John.
Toe van kami mah anih khaeah, Zakaria, zii hmah: na lawkthuihaih Sithaw mah thaih boeh; na zu Elizabeth mah capa maeto na sah pae tih, anih ih ahmin to Johan, tiah sak han oh.
14 And he will be joy to you and gladness, and many at the (birth *N(k)O*) of him will rejoice.
Anghoehaih hoi oephaih to na tawn tih; anih tapen pongah paroeai kaminawk loe anghoe o tih.
15 He will be for great before the Lord, and wine and strong drink certainly not shall he drink, and [of the] Spirit Holy he will be filled even from [the] womb of [the] mother of him.
Anih loe Angraeng mikhnuk ah kalen ah om ueloe, misurtui hoi paqui thaih koi hmuen roe nae mak ai; anih loe amno zok thung hoi kamtong Kacai Muithla hoiah koi tih.
16 And many of the sons of Israel he will turn to [the] Lord the God of them,
Anih mah paroeai Israel kaminawk to angmacae ih Angraeng khaeah angqoisak tih.
17 And he himself will go forth before Him in [the] spirit and power of Elijah to turn [the] hearts of [the] fathers to [the] children and [the] disobedient to [the] wisdom of [the] righteous, to make ready for [the] Lord a people prepared.
Anih mah ampanawk ih palungthin to a caanawk khaeah angqoisak tih, lok tahngai ai kaminawk to katoeng kaminawk ih palunghahaih loklam bangah angqoisak ueloe, Angraeng hanah kaminawk omsak coek tih, anih loe Elijah ih palungthin, thacakhaih hoiah Angraeng hmaa ah caeh tih, tiah a naa.
18 And said Zechariah to the angel; By what will I know this? I myself for am an old man, and the wife of mine having advanced in the years of her.
Zakaria mah van kami khaeah, Hae hmuen hae kawbangmaw ka panoek thai tih? Kai loe mitong boeh moe, ka zu doeh mitong boeh, tiah a naa.
19 And answering the angel said to him; I myself am Gabriel the [one] standing before God and I was sent to speak to you and to bring glad tidings to you these.
To naah van kami mah anih khaeah, Kai loe Sithaw hmaa ah angdoe, Gabriel ah ka oh; lok kang thuih moe, kahoih hae anghoehaih tamthangnawk patuek han ih ni nang khaeah ang patoeh.
20 And behold you will be silent and not able to speak until that day may happen these things, in return for that not you did believe in the words of mine which will be fulfilled in the season of them.
Khenah, atue phak naah akoep han koi kang thuih ih loknawk to na tang ai pongah, hae hmuennawk ohhaih ni pha ai karoek to, lok na aa tih, tiah a naa.
21 And were the people expecting Zechariah and they were wondering at the delaying in the temple of him.
Kaminawk mah Zakariah to zing o, anih loe tempul thungah akra parai boeh pongah dawnrai o.
22 Having come out then not he was able to speak to them; and they recognized that a vision he has seen in the temple. And he himself was making signs to them and was remaining mute.
Anih tasa bang tacawt naah loe, kaminawk khaeah lokthui thai ai boeh: anih loe lok apae ai, kaminawk khaeah ban hoiah ni angmathaih a sak pae: to pongah kaminawk mah anih loe tempul thungah hnuksakhaih a hnuk kalang mue, tiah poek o.
23 And it came to pass when were fulfilled the days of the service of him, he departed to the home of him.
Anih loe a toksakhaih boeng pacoengah, angmah im ah amlaem.
24 After then these days conceived Elizabeth the wife of him and was hiding herself months five saying
To ninawk boeng pacoengah a zu Elizabeth to zokpom; anih loe khrah pangato thung imthung ah anghawk,
25 that Thus to me has done (the *k*) Lord in [the] days in which He looked upon [me] to take away (the *k*) disgrace of mine among men.
anih mah ang khet nathuem ah, kaminawk salakah kai kasae thuihaih to takhoe ving hanah, Angraeng mah kai hanah hae hmuen hae sak boeh, tiah a thuih.
26 In now the month sixth was sent the angel Gabriel (by *N(k)O*) God to a city of Galilee whose name [was] Nazareth
Elizabeth zokpomhaih khrah tarukto phak naah, Sithaw mah van kami Gabriel to Kalili prae, Nazareth vangpui ah kaom,
27 to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name [was] Joseph of [the] house of David, and the name of the virgin [was] Mary.
David imthung takoh Joseph, tiah ahmin kaom kami mah hamh ih tangla cuem khaeah patoeh; tangla kacuem ih ahmin loe Meri.
28 And having come (*ko*) (angel *KO*) to her he said; Greetings! you graciously favored; The Lord [is] with you. (blessed [are] you yourself among women. *KO*)
Anih khaeah van kami to caeh moe, Kasang koek tahamhoih hnu kami, anghoe ah! Sithaw loe nang hoi nawnto oh: nang loe nongpatanawk thungah tahamhoih kami ah na oh, tiah a naa.
29 And (having seen [him] *K*) at the statement she was troubled (of him *k*) and was pondering what kind would be salutation this.
Meri mah anih to hnuk naah, dawnrai, a palung thung hoiah kawbaktih kami tapringhaih lok maw vai, tiah poek.
30 And said the angel to her; Not do fear Mary, you have found for favor with God.
Toe van kami mah anih khaeah, Meri, Zii hmah: nang loe Sithaw mah palung tong ih kami ah na oh boeh.
31 and behold you will conceive in womb and will bring forth a son and you will call the name of Him Jesus.
Khenah, zok na pomh ueloe, caa nongpa maeto na sah tih, anih ih ahmin loe JESU, tiah sak han oh.
32 He will be great and Son of [the] Most High He will be called, and will give to Him [the] Lord God the throne of David of the father of Him,
Anih loe paroeai len tih, Sang koek Capa, tiah kawk o tih: Angraeng Sithaw mah Ampa David ih angraeng tangkhang to anih khaeah paek tih:
33 and He will reign over the house of Jacob to the ages, and of the kingdom of Him not there will be an end! (aiōn g165)
Anih mah Jakob imthung to dungzan ah uk tih; a prae loe boenghaih om mak ai, tiah a naa. (aiōn g165)
34 Said then Mary to the angel; How will be this since a man not I know?
To naah Meri mah van kami khaeah, Hae hmuen loe kawbangmaw angcoeng thai tih? Nongpa hoi ka om ai bae, tiah a naa.
35 And answering the angel said to her; [the] Spirit Holy will come upon you and power of [the] Most High will overshadow you; therefore also the [one] being born Holy [One] will be called [the] Son of God.
Van kami mah anih khaeah, Kacai Muithla na nuiah om tih, Kasang koek sakthaihaih tha mah na oh haih tih: to pongah nang khaeah tapen han koi Ciimcai Capa loe Sithaw Capa, tiah kawk tih.
36 And behold Elizabeth the (relative *N(k)O*) of you also she (has conceived *N(k)O*) a son in old age of her, and this month [the] sixth is to her who [was] called barren
Khenah, nam nawkamya ah kaom Elizabeth doeh mitong pacoengah caa nongpa maeto pomh boeh: anih loe caa kak, toe vaihi zokpomhaih khrah tarukto oh boeh.
37 For not will be impossible with (God *N(k)O*) every declaration.
Sithaw han angcoeng thai ai hmuen tidoeh om ai, tiah a naa.
38 Said then Mary; Behold the handmaid of [the] Lord; Would [that] it happen to me according to the declaration of you. And departed from her the angel.
To naah Meri mah, Khenah, kai loe Angraeng ih toksah nongpata ah ni ka oh; na thuih ih lok baktih toengah ka nuiah om nasoe, tiah a naa. To pacoengah van kami mah anih to caehtaak.
39 Having risen up then Mary in days these she went into the hill country with haste to a town of Judah
Meri loe angthawk moe, Judea prae mae nuiah kaom vangpui maeto ah karangah caeh;
40 and she entered into the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth.
Zakariah ih imthung ah akun moe, Elizabeth to lok tapring.
41 And it came to pass as heard the greeting of Mary Elizabeth, leaped the baby in the womb of her, and was filled with [the] Spirit Holy Elizabeth
Meri mah tapring ih lok to Elizabeth mah thaih naah, a zok thung ih nawkta to angtawt; to naah Elizabeth loe Kacai Muithla hoiah koi:
42 and she cried out (in a shout *N(k)O*) loud and said; Blessed [are] you yourself among women, and blessed [is] the fruit of the womb of you.
anih mah, Nang loe nongpatanawk thungah tahamhoih kami ah na oh, na zok thung ih athaih doeh tahamhoih.
43 And from where to me this that may come the mother of the Lord of mine to me myself?
Tipongah maw ka Angraeng ih amno ah ohhaih to kai khaeah ang paek?
44 Behold for as came the voice of the greeting of you into the ears of mine, leaped in exultation the baby in the womb of mine.
Khenah, nang tapringhaih lok to ka thaih naah, anghoe loiah ka zok thung ih nawkta to amloep tahang.
45 And blessed [is] the [one] having believed that there will be a fulfillment to the [things] spoken to her from [the] Lord.
Angraeng khae hoi thuih ih loknawk loe anih khaeah akoep tih, tiah tanghaih tawn nongpata loe tahamhoih, tiah tha hoiah a hangh.
46 And said Mary: Magnifies the soul of Mine the Lord,
Meri mah, Ka hinghaih pakhra mah Angraeng to pakoeh moe,
47 and rejoices the spirit of mine in God the Savior of mine,
pahlongkung Sithaw khaeah palung anghoehaih ka tawnh.
48 For He has looked upon the humiliation of the handmaiden of Him. Behold for from henceforth will count blessed me all the generations
Poek kahnaem a tamna nongpata to anih mah khet boeh: khenah, vaihi hoi kamtong kaminawk boih mah tahamhoih kami, tiah na kawk o tih.
49 For has done to me (great [things] *N(k)O*) the Mighty One; And holy [is] the name of Him;
Thacak kami mah kai hanah kalen parai hmuennawk to ang sak pae boeh; anih ih ahmin loe ciimcai.
50 And the mercy of Him [is] to generations (and *no*) (generations *N(k)O*) to those fearing Him;
Anih palungnathaih loe anih zithaih tawn kaminawk nuiah adung maeto pacoeng maeto khoek to oh.
51 He has shown strength with [the] arm of Him; He has scattered [the] proud in [the] thought of heart of them;
Anih mah a ban thacakhaih to amtuengsak moe, poeksang kaminawk to anghaehsak phaeng.
52 He has brought down rulers from thrones and exalted [the] humble;
Thacak kaminawk to angmacae ih angraeng tangkhang nui hoiah pakhrak tathuk moe, poek pahnaem kaminawk to tapom tahang.
53 [Those] hungering He has filled with good things and [those] being rich He has sent away empty;
Zok amthlam kaminawk to kahoih hmuennawk hoiah zok amhahsak moe, angraengnawk to bangkrai ah patoeh ving.
54 He has helped Israel [the] servant of Him remembering mercy,
A palungnathaih to pahnet ai pongah a tamna Israel to abomh;
55 even as He spoke to the fathers of us, to Abraham and to the descendants of him to the age. (aiōn g165)
aicae ampanawk khaeah a thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Abraham hoi a caanawk khaeah doeh boeng ai ah a thuih, tiah thuih. (aiōn g165)
56 Dwelt then Mary with her (about *N(k)O*) months three and returned to the home of her.
Meri loe Elizabeth hoi khrah thumto oh pacoengah, angmah im ah amlaem.
57 Now Elizabeth was fulfilled the time to give birth for her and she bore a son.
Elizabeth nawkta tapenhaih tue phak naah loe, anih mah caa nongpa maeto sak.
58 And heard the neighbours and the relatives of her that magnified [the] Lord the mercy of Him with her, and they were rejoicing with her.
Kawkruk maw Angraeng mah a palungnathaih anih nuiah amtuengsak, tiah imtaeng kaminawk hoi angmah ih nawkamyanawk mah thaih o naah, anih to anghoe o haih.
59 And it came to pass on day the eighth they came to circumcise the child and were calling it after the name of the father of him Zechariah.
Ni tazetto naah loe tangzat hin aah hanah nawkta to a caeh o haih; nihcae mah anih ih ahmin loe ampa ih ahmin palawk hanah Zakariah, tiah sak han oh, tiah a thuih o.
60 And answering the mother of him said; No, but he will be called John.
Amno mah, to tih na ai ni; anih ih ahmin loe Johan, tiah sak han oh, tiah a naa.
61 And they said to her that No [one] is (among the relatives *N(k)O*) of you who is called the name by this.
Nihcae mah anih khaeah, Na caengnawk thungah hae baktih ahmin hae om ai, tiah a naa o.
62 They were making signs then to the father of him the what maybe he would wish to be called (him. *N(k)O*)
To pongah nihcae mah nawkta ih ahmin kawbangmaw sak han, tiah ampa khaeah ban hoi angmathaih a sak pae moe, a dueng o.
63 And having asked for a writing tablet he wrote saying; John is (the *ko*) name of him. And they marveled all.
To naah anih mah ca trikhaih thlung kangphaek to hnik moe, Anih ih ahmin loe Johan, tiah tarik: to naah nihcae dawnrai o boih.
64 Was opened then the mouth of him immediately and the tongue of him and he was speaking blessing God.
Akra ai ah anih ih pakha to am-ongh pae moe, palai doeh name pae roep, anih loe lok apaeh moe, Sithaw to pakoeh.
65 And came upon all fear those dwelling around them; and in all the hill country of Judea were being talked about all declarations these,
To tiah hmuen to oh pacoengah nihcae taengah kaom kaminawk boih nuiah zithaih to phak: hae tiah kaom hmuen kawng to Judea prae mae nuiah kaom kaminawk boih mah thuih o.
66 And laid [them] up all those having heard in the heart of them saying; What then child this will be? And (for *no*) [the] hand of [the] Lord was with him.
To lok thaih kaminawk boih mah, Angraeng ih ban anih nuiah oh pongah, hae nawkta loe kawbaktih nawkta ah maw om tih vai? tiah palung thung hoiah a poek o.
67 And Zechariah the father of him was filled with [the] Spirit Holy and prophesied saying;
Ampa Zakariah loe Kacai Muithla hoiah koi moe,
68 Blessed [be] [the] Lord the God of Israel, because He has visited and He has performed redemption [on] the people of Him,
Israel kaminawk ih Sithaw loe tahamhoihaih om nasoe; anih loe angmah ih kaminawk khaeah paqaih moe, angmah ih kaminawk to akrang boeh,
69 and has raised up a horn of salvation for us in (the *k*) house of David (the *k*) servant of Him,
a tamna David imthung ah aicae hanah pahlonghaih takii maeto tacawtsak boeh;
70 even as He spoke through [the] mouth of the holy (of the *k*) of [old] age prophets of Him; (aiōn g165)
long amtong tangsuek na hoiah angmah ih kaciim tahmaanawk ih pakha hoi thuih ih lok baktih toengah: (aiōn g165)
71 salvation from [the] enemies of us and from [the] hand of all those hating us,
aicae loe aimacae misa hoi aicae hnuma kaminawk boih ih ban thung hoiah a loih o tih;
72 to fulfill mercy toward the fathers of us, and to remember [the] covenant holy of Him,
aicae ampanawk khaeah lokkam ih palungnathaih to amtuengsak moe, angmah ih kaciim lokmaihaih to pahnet han ai ah,
73 [the] oath that He swore to Abraham the father of us,
anih loe aicae ampa Abraham khaeah lokkamhaih to sak boeh:
74 to grant us without fear from [the] hand (of the *k*) enemies (of us *k*) having been saved to serve Him
zithaih tawn ai ah a hing o na thung, ciimcaihaih hoi toenghaih hoiah anih ih tok to a sak o hanah, aimacae misa ban thung hoiah aicae to na loisak tih.
75 in holiness and righteousness before Him (all the days *N(k)O*) (of the life *k*) of us.
76 And you yourself (now, *no*) child, prophet of [the] Most High will be called; you will go for (in front of *N(k)O*) ([the] face of *ko*) [the] Lord to prepare ways of Him,
Nawkta, nang loe, Kasang koek ih tahmaa ah na oh, tiah kawk o tih: nang loe Anih ih loklam paroep hanah Angraeng hmaa ah na caeh tih;
77 to give knowledge of salvation to the people of Him in forgiveness of [the] sins of them
nihcae zaehaihnawk tahmenhaih rang hoiah Anih ih kaminawk khaeah pahlonghaih kawng panoeksak hanah,
78 through [the] affections of compassion of God of us in which (will visit *N(k)O*) us [the] Sunrise from on high,
van ranui ih ni bae baktih toengah, aicae Sithaw palungnathaih loe aicae khaeah ni baktiah bae tih boeh;
79 to shine upon those in darkness and in [the] shadow of death sitting, to direct the feet of us into [the] way of peace.
khoving thung hoi duekhaih tahlip tlim ah anghnu kaminawk to aanghaih paek moe, misa angdaehhaih loklam ah aicae khok takansakhaih ni loe angzoh boeh, tiah lok taphong.
80 And the child was continuing to grow and he was strengthened in spirit and he was in the deserted places until [the] day of appearance of him to Israel.
Nawkta loe poekhaih palungthin thacakhaih hoiah qoeng tahang, anih loe Israel kaminawk khaeah amtueng ai karoek to praezaek ah khosak.
