John 3
1 Ther was a man of the pharises named Nicodemus a ruler amonge ye Iewes.
Judah uk kaminawk thungah, Nicodemu, tiah ahmin kaom Farasi kami maeto oh:
2 The same cam to Iesus by nyght and sayde vnto him: Rabbi we knowe that thou arte a teacher whiche arte come from God. For no man coulde do suche miracles as thou doest except God were with him.
anih loe qum ah Jesu khaeah caeh moe, anih khaeah, Rabbi, nang loe Sithaw khae hoi angzo patukkung ah na oh, tiah kang panoek o: Sithaw mah anih to om thuih ai nahaeloe, na sak ih dawnrai hmuennawk hae mi mah doeh sah thai mak ai, tiah a naa.
3 Iesus answered and sayde vnto him: Verely verely I saye vnto the: except a man be boren a newe he cannot se the kyngdom of God.
Jesu mah anih ih lok to pathim pae, anih khaeah, Loktang to, loktang ah kang thuih, Mi kawbaktih doeh tapen let ai kami loe, Sithaw mah siangpahrang ah uk ih prae to hnu thai mak ai, tiah a naa.
4 Nicodemus sayde vnto him: how can a man be boren when he is olde? can he enter into his moders wombe and be boren agayne?
Nikodemu mah anih khaeah, Kami loe mitong pacoengah kawbangmaw tapen let thai tih, anih loe amno zokthung ah vai hnetto akun ueloe, tapen let thai tih maw? tiah a naa.
5 Iesus answered: verely verely I saye vnto the: except that a man be boren of water and of ye sprete he cannot enter into the kyngdome of god.
Jesu mah, Loktang to, loktang ah kang thuih, Tui hoi Muithla hoiah tapen ai kami loe, Sithaw prae thungah akun thai mak ai.
6 That which is boren of the flesshe is flesshe: and that which is boren of the sprete is sprete.
Taksa ah tapen kami loe taksa ah oh; Muithla ah tapen kami loe muithla ah oh.
7 Marvayle not that I sayd to the ye must be boren a newe.
Na tapen let han oh, tiah kang thuih pongah dawnrai hmah.
8 The wynde bloweth where he listeth and thou hearest his sounde: but canst not tell whence he cometh and whether he goeth. So is every man that is boren of the sprete.
Takhi loe a koeh baktiah song, takhi tuen to na thaih, toe naa bang hoiah maw angzoh moe, naa bangah maw caeh, tiah na thui thai ai: Muithla ah tapen kami loe to tiah oh, tiah a naa.
9 And Nicodemus answered and sayde vnto him: how can these thinges be?
Nikodemu mah anih khaeah, Hae hmuenawk loe kawbangmaw om thai tih? tiah pathim.
10 Iesus answered and sayde vnto him: arte thou a master in Israel and knowest not these thinges?
Jesu mah anih khaeah, Israel kaminawk patukkung ah na oh to mah, hae hmuennawk hae na panoek ai maw? tiah a naa.
11 Verely verely I saye vnto the we speake that we knowe and testify that we have sene: and ye receave not oure witnes.
Loktang to, loktang ah kang thuih, Kaicae loe panoek ih hmuen to ka thuih o moe, ka hnuk o ih hmuen to ni ka taphong o; ka taphong o ih hmuen to na talawk o ai.
12 Yf when I tell you erthely thinges ye beleve not: how shuld ye beleve yf I shall tell you of hevenly thinges?
Long hmuen kawngnawk ka thuih naah mataeng doeh, na tang o ai nahaeloe, van hmuen kawngnawk ka thuih nahaeloe, kawbangmaw na tang o thai tih?
13 And no man ascendeth vp to heaven but he that came doune from heaven that is to saye the sonne of man which is in heaven.
Van hoi angzo tathuk, van ah kaom kami Capa ai ah loe, mi doeh van ah daw vai ai.
14 And as Moses lifte vp the serpent in the wyldernes even so must the sonne of man be lifte vp
Mosi mah praezaek ah takhing ih pahui baktih toengah, kami Capa to takhing o tih.
Mi kawbaktith doeh Anih tang kami loe anghmaa mak ai, dungzan hinghaih to hnu tih. (aiōnios g166)
16 For God so loveth the worlde yt he hath geven his only sonne that none that beleve in him shuld perisshe: but shuld have everlastinge lyfe. (aiōnios g166)
Sithaw mah long palung phi pongah, maeto khue tawnh ih a Capa to a paek, mi kawbaktih doeh Anih tang kami loe anghmaa mak ai, dungzan hinghaih to hnu tih. (aiōnios g166)
17 For God sent not his sonne into the worlde to condepne the worlde: but that the worlde through him might be saved.
Long lokcaek hanah Sithaw mah a Capa to long ah patoeh ai; Anih rang hoiah long pahlong han ih ni patoeh.
18 He that beleveth on him shall not be condepned. But he that beleveth not is condempned all redy be cause he beleveth not in the name of the only sonne of God.
Anih tang kami loe lokcaek mak ai, toe tang ai kami loe maeto khue tawnh ih Sithaw Capa ahmin to tang ai pongah, lokcaek ah oh boeh.
19 And this is the condempnacion: that light is come into the worlde and the me loved darcknes more then light because their dedes were evill.
Hae loe lokcaekhaih ah oh, aanghaih loe long ah angzoh, toe a sak o ih hmuennawk to hoih ai pongah, kaminawk mah aanghaih pongah vinghaih to koeh o kue.
20 For every man that evyll doeth hateth the light: nether commeth to light lest his dedes shuld be reproved.
Kahoih ai hmuen sah kami loe aanghaih to hnukma, a toksakhaih amtueng moeng tih, tiah a poek pongah, aanghaih thungah angzoh han koeh ai.
21 But he that doth truth commeth to the light that his dedes might be knowen how that they are wrought in God.
Toe loktang hoi kahing kami loe, Sithaw rang hoiah a sak o ih hmuennawk to amtueng thai hanah, aanghaih thungah angzoh, tiah a naa.
22 After these thinges cam Iesus and his disciples into the Iewes londe and ther he haunted with them and baptised.
To pacoengah Jesu hoi a hnukbang kaminawk loe Judea prae ah caeh o; anih loe nihcae hoi nawnto to ahmuen ah oh moe, tuinuemhaih to paek.
23 And Iohn also baptised in Enon besydes Salim because ther was moche water there and they came and were baptised.
Johan mah doeh Salim taengah kaom Aenon avang ah tuinuemhaih to paek: to ahmuen ah loe tui pop pongah, kaminawk angzoh o moe, tuinuemhaih to sak o.
24 For Iohn was not yet cast into preson.
To nathuem ah Johan loe thongim krah ai vop.
25 And ther arose a questio bitwene Iohns disciples and the Iewes about purifiynge.
Ciimcaihaih kawng pongah Judahnawk hoi Johan hnukbang kaminawk lok angaek o.
26 And they came vnto Iohn and sayde vnto him: Rabbi he that was with the beyonde Iordan to whom thou barest witnes. Beholde the same baptyseth and all me come to him.
Nihcae loe Johan khaeah caeh o moe, anih khaeah, Rabbi, khenah, Jordan vapui yaeh ah nang hoi nawnto kaom kami, na taphong ih kami mah tuinuemhaih to paek, kaminawk loe anih khaeah caeh o boih boeh, tiah a naa o.
27 Iohn answered and sayde: a man can receave no thinge at all except it be geve him fro heaven.
Johan mah, Van hoiah anih han paek ai ah loe, kami mah tidoeh hnu thai mak ai.
28 Ye youre selves are witnesses how that I sayde: I am not Christ but am sent before him.
Kai loe Kri na ai ni, toe kai loe Anih hmaa ah patoeh ih kami ni, tiah hnukung ah nangcae na oh o.
29 He that hath the bryde is the brydegrome. But the frende of the brydegrome which stondeth by and heareth him reioyseth greately of the brydgromes voyce. Tis my ioye is fulfilled.
Zu lak naah nongpa mah ni nongpata to lak: toe zu kala thendoeng ih ampui loe anih taengah angdoet moe, anih ih lok to thaih, zu lakung ih lok to thaih pongah, paroeai anghoe: to pongah kang hoehaih loe hae tiah akoep boeh.
30 He must increace: and I muste decreace.
Anih loe pung tahang aep tih, toe kai loe amsah tathuk tih.
31 He that commeth from an hye is above all: He that is of ye erth is of the erth and speaketh of the erth. He that cometh from heaven is above all
Van hoiah angzo kami loe hmuen boih ranui ah oh: long hoiah angcoeng kami loe long hmuen ah oh moe, long hmuen kawng to a thuih: van hoiah angzo kami loe hmuen boih ranui ah oh.
32 and what he hath sene and hearde: that he testifieth: but no man receaveth his testimonye.
Anih mah loe hnuk moe, thaih ih hmuen to ni a thuih; mi mah doeh a thuih ih lok to talawk pae o ai.
33 How be it he that hath receaved hys testimonye hath set to his seale that God is true.
A thuih ih lok talawk kami mah loe, Sithaw loe loktang ni, tiah catui to a daengh.
34 For he whom God hath sent speaketh the wordes of God. For God geveth not the sprete by measure.
Sithaw mah patoeh ih kami loe Sithaw lok to thuih: Sithaw mah anih khaeah tahhaih om ai ah Muithla to paek.
35 The father loveth the sonne and hath geven all thinges into his honde.
Ampa mah Capa to palung pongah hmuennawk anih ban ah paek boih.
36 He that beleveth on the sonne hath everlastynge lyfe: and he that beleveth not the sonne shall not se lyfe but the wrathe of God abydeth on him. (aiōnios g166)
Capa tang kami loe dungzan hinghaih to tawnh: Capa tang ai kami loe hinghaih hnu mak ai; Sithaw palungphuihaih a nuiah om tih, tiah a naa. (aiōnios g166)
