John 1
1 Ahoubada Wahei adu leirammi; Wahei adu Tengban Mapuga leiminnarammi amasung Wahei adu Tengban Mapu oirammi.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 Hek houba adudagi houna Wahei adu Tengban Mapuga leiminnarammi.
He was in the beginning with God.
3 Ibungo mahakki mapanna Tengban Mapuna pot pumnamak sembikhi; Ibungo mahak yaodana semkhiba khutsem amata leite.
All things were made through him, and apart from him nothing was made that has been made.
4 Ibungoda hingba leirammi aduga hingba aduna misinggi mangal oirammi.
In him was life, and the life was the light of humanity.
5 Mangal aduna amambada ngalle aduga amamba aduna mangal adubu ngamde.
And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn't overcome it.
6 Tengban Mapuna thabirakpa John kouba mi ama leirammi.
There came a man, sent from God, whose name was John.
7 Mi khudingmak mahakki mapanna thajaraknaba, mahakna misingda mangal adugi maramda hainaba lakpani.
He came as a witness to testify about the light, that all might believe through him.
8 Mahak masamakti mangal adu natte adubu mahakti mangal adugi maramda hainanaba lakpani.
He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.
9 Mi khudingmakta mangal pibiba achumba mangal adu taibangpanda laklammi.
The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.
10 Wahei adu taibangpanda leirammi, aduga Mapu Ibungona taibangpan asi Ibungo mahakki mapanna sembikhiba oirabasu, taibangpannadi Ibungo mahakpu khanglamde.
He was in the world, and the world was made through him, but the world did not recognize him.
11 Ibungo mahakna masagi oiba maphamda laklammi adubu mahakmakki misingna Ibungobu lousillamde.
He came to his own, and those who were his own did not receive him.
12 Adubu mi kharanadi Ibungobu lousinjarammi amadi Ibungobu thajarammi; maram aduna Ibungona makhoida Tengban Mapugi machasing oinaba matik pibire.
But as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become God's children, to those who believe in his name,
13 Makhoina Tengban Mapugi machasing oirakpa asi mama mapana nattraga mioibagi apambana nattraga mapuroibagi warepna pokpiba adugumba natte adubu Mapu Ibungona pokpibani.
who were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 Wahei aduna sayollaktuna thoujal amadi achumbana pik thanduna eikhoigi irakta leibirare. Aduga eikhoina Ibungo mahakki matik mangal haibadi Mapagi amatta ngairaba Macha oibagi matik mangal adu ujare.
And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we saw his glory, such glory as of the one and only of the Father, full of grace and truth.
15 John-na Ibungo mahakki maramda hairammi. Mahakna houna hairak-i, “‘Ibungona eigi tungda lengbirakli adubu Ibungo mahakti eina poktringeida hannana leirabani maram asina Ibungona eingondagi henna chao-i,’ haina eina nakhoida haikhiba Ibungo mahak adu asini.”
John testified about him and shouted out, saying, "This was the one of whom I said, 'He who comes after me has surpassed me, for he was before me.'"
16 Athanba thoujalgi pukkei oiriba Ibungo mangondagi yaipha thoujal amagi mathakta yaipha thoujal ama eikhoi pumnamakna phangjare.
For of his fullness we all received, and grace upon grace.
17 Wayel Yathangdi Moses-ki mapanna pibibani adubu thoujal amasung achumbadi Jisu Christtagi mapanna lakpani.
For the Law was given through Moses, grace and truth came through Jesus (the) Messiah.
18 Mi kana amatana Tengban Mapubu kheidounungdasu ukhidri. Adubu Mapaga yamna naknana leiriba amatta ngairaba Machanupa Mapu Ibungona Ibungo mahakpu phongdokle.
No one has seen God at any time. The only Son, who is at the Father's side, has made him known.
19 Jerusalem-da leiba Jihudisingna, John-bu kanano haina hangnaba purohitsing amasung Levi-singbu John-gi manakta tharaklammi.
And this is John's testimony, when the Jewish leaders sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, "Who are you?"
20 Mahakna paokhum piningdaba touramde aduga i-phong phongna sengna hairak-i, “Eidi Christta adu natte.”
And he confessed, and did not deny, but he confessed, "I am not the Messiah."
21 Maduda makhoina hanglak-i, “Adu oirabadi nahak kanano? Nahak Elijah-ra?” John-na khumlak-i, “Ei natte.” Adudagi makhoina hanglak-i, “Adudi Mapu Ibungogi wa phongdokpa maichou ama lakkani haibadu nahakla?” Mahakna khumlak-i, “Natte”
And they asked him, "What then? Are you Elijah?" And he said, "I am not." "Are you the Prophet?" And he answered, "No."
22 Aroibada makhoina hairak-i, “Adu oirabadi nahak kanano haibasi eikhoida haibirak-u. Eikhoibu tharakpa makhoising aduda tamlunaba nahakna paokhum amadi pibiyu. Nahakna nasagi maramda kari haijabage?”
They said therefore to him, "Who are you? Give us an answer to take back to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?"
23 Mapu Ibungogi wa phongdokpa maichou Isaiah-gi waheising sijinnaduna John-na paokhum pirak-i: “Lamjao lamhangda laoriba kanagumba amagi khonjel adu eini: ‘MAPU IBUNGO mahakna chatnanaba lambi adu chumhallu!’”
He said, "I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Make straight the way of the Lord,' as Isaiah the prophet said."
24 Pharisee kharasu John-gi maphamda tharak-i,
(Now they had been sent from the Pharisees.)
25 makhoina John-da hanglak-i, “Nahak Christta adusu Elijah adusu Mapu Ibungogi wa phongdokpa maichou adusu nattrabadi karigi nahakna baptize touribano?”
And they asked him, "Why then do you baptize, if you are not the Messiah, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?"
26 Maduda John-na khumlak-i, “Einadi isingda baptize tou-i adubu nakhoina khangdaba kanagumba ama nakhoigi narakta lepli.
John answered them, saying, "I baptize in water, but among you stands one whom you do not know.
27 Ibungo mahakna eigi tungda lakli aduga eidi Ibungo mahakki sandal mari louthokpa phaoba matik chade.”
He is the one who comes after me, whose sandal strap I'm not worthy to loosen."
28 John-na baptize toubiba mapham Jordan turen-gi nongpok thangba wangmada leiba Bethany-da masigi thoudok asi thokkhibani.
These things were done in Bethany across the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
29 Mathanggi numitta Jisuna John-gi manakta lakpadu ure maduda John-na hairak-i, “Yeng-u, taibangpanbagi pappu pubiduna louthokpiba Tengban Mapugi Yaomacha adu!
The next day, he saw Jesus coming to him, and said, "Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.
30 Ibungo asigi maramdani eina haikhibadu, ‘Kanagumba ama eigi tungda lengbirakli, Ibungo mahakti eina poktringeidagi hannana leirabani maramsina Ibungona eingondagi henna chao-i.’
This is he of whom I said, 'After me comes a man who ranks ahead of me, because he existed before me.'
31 Einadi Ibungobu kanano haiba khanglamde adubu eina isingda baptize toubasi Ibungo mahakpu Israel-da phongdoknabani.”
I did not know him, but for this reason I came baptizing in water: that he would be revealed to Israel."
32 Adudagi John-na sakhi asi pirammi: “Thawai aduna swargadagi khunugumna lengtharaktuna Ibungoda leiba adu eina ure.
And John testified, saying, "I saw the Spirit descending like a dove out of heaven, and it remained on him.
33 Eibu isingda baptize tounaba thabiba Ibungo mahakna eingonda, ‘Thawai aduna kanagumba amagi mathakta lengtharaktuna leiba nahakna ugani; mahak aduna Thawai Asengbada baptize toubigani,’ haina haibiramdrabadi eina Ibungo mahakpu khanglamloidabani.
And I did not recognize him, but he who sent me to baptize in water, he said to me, 'On whomever you will see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, this is he who baptizes in the Holy Spirit.'
34 Eina madumak ujare aduga Ibungo mahak asi Tengban Mapugi Machanupani haina eina nakhoida hairi.”
And I have seen and have testified that this is the Chosen One of God."
35 Mathanggi numitta John-na mahakki tung-inba aniga loinana leptuna leirammi.
Again, the next day, John was standing with two of his disciples,
36 Jisuna mapham aduda chatpadu ubada mahakna hairak-i, “Yeng-u, Tengban Mapugi Yaomacha adu.”
and he looked at Jesus as he walked, and said, "Look, the Lamb of God."
37 John-na haiba adu mahakki tung-inba aniduna tarabada makhoina Jisugi matung induna chatkhirammi.
And the two disciples heard him say this, and they followed Jesus.
38 Jisuna leithorakpada makhoina mahakki tung illakliba adu ure maduda Ibungona hanglak-i, “Nakhoi kari pambage?” Maduda makhoina khumlak-i, “Rabbi” (Masigi wahanthokti “Oja Ibungo” haibani), “Ibungo nahak kadaida leibibage?”
And Jesus turned and saw them following, and said to them, "What are you looking for?" They said to him, "Rabbi" (which translated means Teacher), "where are you staying?"
39 Ibungona khumlak-i, “Lak-u aduga nakhoina u-gani.” (Matam adu numit yungba matung pung marimuk tabada oirammi.) Maram aduna makhoina Ibungoga loinana chattuna Ibungona leiba mapham adu ujare aduga numit aduma makhoina Ibungoga loinana leiminnarammi.
He said to them, "Come, and you will see." They came and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day. It was about four in the afternoon.
40 John-na haiba adu taduna Jisugi tung inkhiba makhoi anigi marakta amadi Simon Peter-gi manao Andrew-ni.
One of the two who heard John, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.
41 Andrew-na ihan hanna mahakki mayamba Simon-bu thiraga mangonda hairammi, “Eikhoina Messiah adu phangjare.” (Madudi “Christta” haibani)
He first found his own brother, Simon, and said to him, "We have found the Messiah." (which is translated, Anointed One).
42 Adudagi mahakna Simon-bu Jisugi manakta purakle. Jisuna Simon-da yenglaga hairak-i, “Nahakti John-gi machanupa Simon-ni, adubu nahakki naming Cephas kougani.” (Masigi wahanthokti “Peter” haibani.)
He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him, and said, "You are Simon the son of John. You will be called Cephas" (which is translated, Peter).
43 Mathanggi numitta Galilee-da Jisuna chatke leple. Ibungona Philip-pu thengnarabada mangonda hairak-i, “Eigi itung illak-u!”
On the next day, he was determined to go out into Galilee, and he found Philip. And Jesus said to him, "Follow me."
44 (Andrew amadi Peter-gumna Philip-su Bethsaida sahardagini.)
Now Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter.
45 Philip-na Nathanael-bu phanglabada mangonda hairammi, “Moses-na Wayel Yathangda amasung Mapu Ibungogi wa phongdokpa maichousingnasu ibiramba mahak adu eikhoina phangle. Mahak adudi Joseph-ki machanupa, Nazareth-ki Jisuni.”
Philip found Nathanael, and said to him, "We have found him of whom Moses in the Law and the Prophets wrote: Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."
46 Nathanael-na hanglak-i, “Nazareth-tagibu karigumba aphaba thorakpa ngambra?” Maduda Philip-na khumlak-i, “Laktuna yeng-u.”
And Nathanael said to him, "Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?" Philip said to him, "Come and see."
47 Mahakki manakta Nathanael-na lakpadu urabada Jisuna mangonda hairak-i, “Mapham asida tasengba Israel-gi mi ama leire; mangonda lounamba leite.”
Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said about him, "Look, a true Israelite in whom there is no deceit."
48 Nathanael-na Ibungoda hanglak-i, “Ibungona eibu karamna khangbibage?” Maduda Jisuna paokhum pirak-i, “Philip-na nahakpu koudringeida, nahakna heiyit pambi makhada leiba matam aduda eina nangbu ure.”
Nathanael said to him, "How do you know me?" Jesus answered him, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."
49 Nathanael-na khumlak-i, “Oja Ibungo, nahak Tengban Mapugi Machanupa aduni! Nahak Israel-gi Ningthouni!”
Nathanael answered him, "Rabbi, you are the Son of God. You are King of Israel."
50 Jisuna mangonda hairak-i, “Nahakna heiyit pambi makhada leiringeida eina nangbu ure haina eina nangonda haibagi maramna nahakna thajaribra? Masidagi henna chaoba thabaksing nahakna ukhigani.”
Jesus answered him, "Because I told you, 'I saw you underneath the fig tree,' do you believe? You will see greater things than these."
51 Adudagi Ibungona makha tarak-i, “Eina nakhoida tasengnamak hairiba asini, swarga hangdokpa amadi Tengban Mapugi dutsingna Migi Machanupa adugi mathakta kakhat khumtha touba adu nakhoina ugani.”
And he said to him, "Truly, truly, I tell you, you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man."
