< Luke 1 >

1 Nungsijaraba Theophilus: Eikhoigi irakta thunghanbikhraba thoudoksing adugi paodam adubu inanaba mioi kaya amana kanna hotnakhi.
Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us,
2 Ahoubadagi houna thoudoksing asibu mamitmakna uhoubasing amasung Mapugi waheigi thougal toubasing aduna eikhoida phongdokpirambasing adu makhoina ikhi.
Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word; (logos)
3 Aduga, he ikai khumnaraba Theophilus, pumnamaksing adu eihakna ahoubadagi houna changkhonna thijillaba maramna, thoudoksing adu mathang manao naina nahakki naphamda iba phagani haina eihaknasu ningle.
It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write unto you in order, most excellent Theophilus,
4 Nangonda tambikhraba pumnamaksing adugi mapungphaba achumba adu nahakna khangnanaba eina masi naphamda ibani.
That you might know the certainty of those things, (logos) wherein you have been instructed.
5 Herod-na Judea leibakki ningthou oina pallingei matamda, Abijah-gi purohit kanglupta Zechariah kouba purohit ama leirammmi. Mahakki nupigi maming Elijabeth kou-i; aduga Elizabeth-su purohit Aaron-gi charon suron oirammi.
THERE was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.
6 Makhoi animakna Mapu Ibungogi yathangsing amadi pathap pumnamaksing mapungphana ngakchaduna Tengban Mapugi mityengda chumna chatchaba punsi mahing amada hinglammi.
And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
7 Adubu makhoi macha amata leiramde maramdi Elizabeth chaboktabi oirammi aduga makhoi animak ahalsu yamna oirammi.
And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were now well stricken in years.
8 Nongmagi numitta Zechariah-gi purohit kangbuna thougal toubagi palli taraduna mahakna Mapugi Sanglenda purohit ama oina Tengban Mapugi thougal tourammi.
And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest's office before God in the order of his course,
9 Aduga latnapungda mengkruk thanaba purohitsinggi chatnabi matung inna changyengnabada mangonda tare. Maram aduna mahakna Mapu Ibungogi sanglen manungda changle.
According to the custom of the priest's office, his lot was to burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.
10 Amasung mengkruk chukhatpagi pungpham aduda tilliba miyam aduna mapanda haija nijaduna leirammi.
And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at the time of incense.
11 Adudagi Mapu Ibungogi dut amana mengkruk thariba iratpung adugi yet thangbada leptuna mangonda uhanbirammi.
And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
12 Zechariah-na mahakpu ubada masada thukatpa amadi akiba phaorammi.
And when Zacharias saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.
13 Adubu swarga dut aduna mangonda hairak-i, “Kiganu, Zechariah! Nahakna haijaba adu Tengban Mapuna tabire. Nahakki nupi Elizabeth-na nachanupa ama poklagani aduga nahakna mahakki maming John haina thongadabani.
But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for your prayer is heard; and your wife Elisabeth shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name John.
14 Mahak pokpa matamda nahakna kayada haraoba amadi nungaiba oigadaba! Amasung mi kayana kayada harao nungaiba oigadaba!
And you shall have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.
15 Maramdi Mapu Ibungogi mityengda mahak matik chaogani. Mahakna yu amadi mayai kaba mahi amata thakloi, aduga mama puknungdagi houna mahak Thawai Asengbana than-gani.
For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Spirit, (pneuma) even from his mother's womb.
16 Amasung mahakna Israel macha kayabu makhoigi Tengban Mapu, Mapu Ibungoda hallak-han-gani.
And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God.
17 Mahakna Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpa maichou Elijah-gi machat amadi matikka loinana Ibungogi mang thana chatkani. Mahakna misingbu Ibungona lenglakkadaba adugidamak thourang langhannaba mapasingbu machasingga amuk yasinnahangani amasung haiba indabasingbu achumba chatpasinggi lousing aduda hongdokpigani.”
And he shall go before him in the spirit (pneuma) and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
18 Adudagi Zechariah-na dut aduda hairak-i, “Masi soidana thokkani haibasi eihakna kamdouna khanggadage? Eidi ahal oiraba mini aduga eigi nupisu ahal oire.”
And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.
19 Maduda dut aduna khumlak-i, “Ei Grabriel-ni. Nangonda wa hainanaba amasung aphaba pao asibu tamnanaba eibu thabirakpa Tengban Mapugi mangda eina lepli.
And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto you, and to show you these glad tidings.
20 Adubu achaba matamda soidanamak thoklagadaba eigi wasing asi nahakna thajade. Aduga nahakna thajadabagi maramna eina nangonda haikhibasing asi thoktriba numit adu phaoba nahak wa ngangba thokloi aduga wa amata ngangdana tumminna leigani.”
And, behold, you shall be dumb, and not able to speak, until the day that these things shall be performed, because you believe not my words, (logos) which shall be fulfilled in their season.
21 Cheirak aduda mising aduna Zechariah-bu mapanda ngaiduna leirammi amasung mahakna karigi Mapugi Sanglen manungda matam asuk kuina leiribano haina makhoi ngaklammi.
And the people waited for Zacharias, and marvelled that he tarried so long in the temple.
22 Amasung mahakna mapanda thorakpa matamda, mahakna makhoida wa ngangba ngamkhide. Aduga mahakna Mapugi Sanglen manungda uhanbiba ama ukhre haiba makhoina khanglammi, maramdi mahakna makhoida ingit touduna nganglammi adubu wa ngangbadi adumak ngamkhide.
And when he came out, he could not speak unto them: and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple: for he beckoned unto them, and remained speechless.
23 Aduga Mapugi Sanglenda mahakki thougal toubagi numitsing adu loirabada Zachariah mayumda amuk halaklammi.
And it came to pass, that, as soon as the days of his ministration were accomplished, he departed to his own house.
24 Matam kharagi matungda Elizabeth mironlaklammi aduga mahakna tha manga yumdagi mapan thoklamde.
And after those days his wife Elisabeth conceived, and hid herself five months, saying,
25 Mahakna haikhi, “Houjik mameithangda Mapu Ibungona eibu pangbire. Miyam mangda eina ikaiba nanglamba adu Ibungona louthokpire!”
Thus has the Lord dealt with me in the days wherein he looked on me, to take away my reproach among men.
26 Elizabeth-na mironba tha taruk surakpada Tengban Mapuna swargadut Grabriel-bu Nazareth kouba Galilee-gi khungangda tharakle.
And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,
27 Mahakna Mary haina koubi, David ningthougi chada-naoda oiriba Joseph kouba nupa amada luhongnaba waroinakhrabi leisabi asengbi amagi pao puduna laklammi.
To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.
28 Aduga dut aduna mangonda laktuna hairak-i, “Khurumjari, thoujal phanglabi! Mapu Ibungona nahakpu loinabiri; nupisinggi maraktagi nahakti yaipahabini.”
And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, you that are highly favoured, the Lord is with you: blessed are you among women.
29 Maryna dut adugi wahei aduda yamna cha-ngaknarammi amasung mahakki waheising aduna kari phongdoklibano haiduna khallammi.
And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, (logos) and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.
30 Maduda dut aduna hairak-i, “Kiganu Mary, Tengban Mapudagi nahakna thoujal phangjare.
And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for you have found favour with God.
31 Nahakna mironduna nacha nupa ama pokkani aduga nahakna mahakki maming Jisu thongadabani.
And, behold, you shall conceive in your womb, and bring forth a son, and shall call his name JESUS.
32 Mahak matik chaogani aduga Wangthoiraba Mapu Ibungogi machanupa kougani. Mapu Ibungo Tengban Mapuna mangonda mapa David-ki phambal adu pibigani,
He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:
33 Aduga mahakna Jacob-ki chada-naodasinggi ningthou oina matam pumbagi oina pan-gani, amadi mahakki leibak adu lomba nairoi.” (aiōn g165)
And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end. (aiōn g165)
34 Adudagi Mary-na dut aduda hairak-i, “Eihakti luhongdribi leisabini, adu oirabadi masi kamdouna oithokkadouribano?”
Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?
35 Dut aduna khumlak-i, “Thawai Asengbana nahakki nathakta lengthabirakkani aduga Wangthoiraba Ibungo adugi panggalna nahakpu lumsinbigani. Maram asina pokkadouriba asengba angang adubu Tengban Mapugi Machanupa kougani.
And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Spirit (pneuma) shall come upon you, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow you: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of you shall be called the Son of God.
36 Yengu, nahakki mari mata Elizabeth-su ahal oiraklaba matamsida macha ama phangjagadoure, chaboktabi hainarambi mahakna houjikti tha tarukki angang naopure.
And, behold, your cousin Elisabeth, she has also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.
37 Maramdi Tengban Mapugi maphamda oithoktaba kari amata leite.”
For with God nothing (rhema) shall be impossible.
38 Maduda Mary-na hairak-i, “Eihak Mapu Ibungogi manainupini; nahakna haikhibagum masi eingongda thokpa oirasanu.” Adudagi dut adu mahakpu thadoktuna chatkhre.
And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to your word. (rhema) And the angel departed from her.
39 Madugi matung ikui kuidana Mary-na thourang touraduna chinggi lamdamda leiba, Judea-gi apikpa sahar amada thuna chatlammi.
And Mary arose in those days, and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Juda;
40 Amasung mahakna Zechariah-gi yumda changduna Elizabeth-pu khurumjarammi.
And entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth.
41 Aduga Mary-na khurumjabagi khonjel adu Elizabeth-na tabada mahakki pibuknungda angang aduna chonglammi. Amasung Elizabeth Thawai Asengbana thallammi.
And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit: (pneuma)
42 Aduga mahakna khonjel wangna hairak-i, “Nupilaktagi nahakti khwaidagi henna yaiphabini, amasung nahakna naopugadouriba angang adu yaiphabani!
And she spoke out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb.
43 Eigi Ibungogi imana eigi inakta lengbiraktuna eibu asuk ekai khumnabiriba asi karamnano?
And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
44 Maramdi nahakna khurumjabagi khonjel adu eina hek tabaga eigi pibuknunggi angang asina haraoduna chongkhatli.
For, lo, as soon as the voice of your salutation sounded in mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.
45 Mapu Ibungona mahakki maphamda haikhrabasing adu thunghanbigani haina thajaribi mahak adu yaiphabini!”
And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.
46 Maduda Maryna hairak-i, “Eigi thawaina Mapu Ibungobu thagatchei,
And Mary said, My soul does magnify the Lord,
47 Eigi thawaina eigi Kanbiba Mapu, Tengban Mapuda haraojei,
And my spirit (pneuma) has rejoiced in God my Saviour.
48 Maramdi mahakna tollabi manainupi eihakpu ningsingbire! Houjiktagi houduna miron khudingna kougani eibu yaiphabi;
For he has regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
49 Maramdi toubire Pangallaba mahakna, eigidamak achouba thabak kaya. Ibungo mahakki minglendi asengbani;
For he that is mighty has done to me great things; and holy is his name.
50 Mahakpu kina chatchabasingda, utpi mahakna chanbiba; miron miron khudingda.
And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation.
51 Toubire mahakki pambomna, matik leiba thabak kaya; aduga chaikhaire mahakna, mathamoida napal touba misingbu.
He has showed strength with his arm; he has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
52 Chingthakhi mahakna matik leiba ningthousingbu makhoigi ningthou phambaldagi, aduga thanggatpikhi mahakna nollukpasingbu.
He has put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.
53 Thalhanbikhi mahakna aram-khourangbasingbu aphabana, adubu thakhi inakhunbasingbu khut hangna.
He has filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he has sent empty away.
54 Ngakkhi mahakna sakkhiba washaktu, eikhoigi ipa-ipusingda, aduga lakkhi pangbinaba mahakki manai Israel-bu.
He has helped his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy;
55 Ningsingbikhi mahakna, matam pumnamakta chanbiba utpigani haibadu, Abraham amadi mahakki charon suronsingda!” (aiōn g165)
As he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed for ever. (aiōn g165)
56 Adudagi Mary-na tha ahummuk Elizabeth-ka leiminnaramlaga mayumda hankhirammi.
And Mary abode with her about three months, and returned to her own house.
57 Elizabeth-ki angang unabagi matam oiraklabada, mahakna machanupa ama pokkhi.
Now Elisabeth's full time came that she should be delivered; and she brought forth a son.
58 Aduga mahakki keirol-leikaisingna amadi mari-matasingna Mapu Ibungona mahakpu kayada chanbibage haibadu tare amasung makhoi pumnamakna mahakka loinana haraominare.
And her neighbours and her cousins heard how the Lord had showed great mercy upon her; and they rejoiced with her.
59 Angang aduna numit nipanni subada makhoina mahakpu un kakpa lakle, amasung makhoina angang adubu mapagi maming louduna Zechariah thonnaba tourammi.
And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child; and they called him Zacharias, after the name of his father.
60 Adubu Elizabeth-na makhoida haikhi, “Natte, mahakki maming John haina thongadabani.”
And his mother answered and said, Not so; but he shall be called John.
61 Maduda makhoina mangonda hairak-i, “Nakhoigi sagei natei marakta ming adu kouba mi amatasu yaode.”
And they said unto her, There is none of your kindred that is called by this name.
62 Adudagi makhoina angang adugi mapa Zechariah-da ingit touduna, mahakna angang adugi maming kari thonba pambage haiduna hanglammi.
And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called.
63 Maduda mahakna mangonda inanaba korbak ama pinaba hairammi, aduga maduda mahakna “Mahakki maming John kou-i” haina ire. Maduda makhoi pumnamak pumngak ngakle.
And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they marvelled all.
64 Khudak adumaktada Zechariah amuk hanna wa ngangba ngamle aduga mahakna Tengban Mapubu thagatchaba houre.
And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue loosed, and he spoke, and praised God.
65 Aduga thokkhibasing asina maram oiduna mahakki keirol-leikai pumnamak akibana thallammi, amasung thoudok pumnamak asigi paona Judah-gi chinggi lamdam adu sinba thungna sandokkhirammi.
And fear came on all that dwelt round about them: and all these sayings (rhema) were noised abroad throughout all the hill country of Judaea.
66 Amasung pao adu taba mi khudingmakna, madugi maramda wakhal touraduna hanglak-i, “Angang asina kari oirakkadaba?” Maramdi Mapu Ibungogi pangalna mahakki mathakta lei haiba makhoina khanglammi.
And all they that heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, What manner of child shall this be! And the hand of the Lord was with him.
67 Amasung John-gi mapa Zechariah Thawai Asengbana thallammi aduga mahakna Tengban Mapugi wa phongdoktuna hairak-i:
And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Spirit, (pneuma) and prophesied, saying,
68 “Eikhoina Israel-gi Tengban Mapu, Mapu Ibungobu thagatlasi! Mahakna mahakki misingbu pangbinaba lakle amasung makhoibu handokpire!
Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he has visited and redeemed his people,
69 Mahakna mahakki manai David-ki charon surondagi, Pinabire eikhoigidamak matik leiba Kanbiba Mapu ama.
And has raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David;
70 Mahakna mamangngeida mahakki wa phongdokpiba asengba maichousingi mapanna washakpikhi, (aiōn g165)
As he spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began: (aiōn g165)
71 Kanbigani haina Mahakna, eikhoibu eikhoigi yeknabasingdagi, amadi eikhoibu yengthiba pumnamakki makhuttagi.
That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us;
72 Haibikhi mahakna eikhoigi ipa ipusingda, chanbiba utpigani haina, aduga mahakki asengba warepnaba adu mahakna ningsingbikhi.
To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant;
73 Wasakpikhi mahakna Ipa Abraham-da,
The oath which he swore to our father Abraham,
74 Kanbigani haina Mahakna eikhoibu yeknabasingi makhuttagi aduga ngamhanbigani haina eikhoibu akiba leitana mahakpu thouganjaba,
That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,
75 Punsi chuppa eikhoina Mahakki mangda asengba amadi achumba chatpa oinaba.
In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.
76 Aduga, eigi ichanupa, nahakpu wangthoiraba Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpiba maichou haina kougani; Ibungogi lambi thourang tounaba, Chatkani nahakna Ibungogi mang thaduna.
And you, child, shall be called the prophet of the Highest: for you shall go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways;
77 Ibungogi misingda hainanaba, makhoigi papsingdu kokpibagi mapanna, Makhoibu kanbigani haina.
To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins,
78 Maramdi eikhoigi Tengban Mapudi chanbiheibani amadi nungsiheibani. Thok-hanbigani Mahakna, aran-khubamgi langlaba ayukki korou mangal adu eikhoida.
Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the dayspring from on high has visited us,
79 Ngalhannanaba korouthaktagi, asibagi mamlaba mamida leiriba pumnamakki mathakta. Chingbinanaba eikhoigi khongthangbu, ingthabagi lambida.”
To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.
80 Adudagi angang adu hakchang amadi thawaida chaokhatlaklammi. Aduga mahakna masabu Israel-gi miyamda phongdoktringeigi matam adu phaoba lamjao lamhangda leirammi.
And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, (pneuma) and was in the deserts till the day of his showing unto Israel.
