Esaamootkaat 1
1 Nga mongnook Thiophilas: Nga leedap phangkhoh adi Jisu phang mokata dowa ih rangmong ni maang toonsiit wandi tiimjih reeraangta nyia tiimjih nyootsootta
Truly, I made the first history, O Theophilus, concerning all things which Jesus began both to do and to teach,
2 erah ah raangtang. Jisu rangmong ni maang toonsiit wanka di, heh ih danjeeta heliphante loong asuh Esa Chiiala chaan tiit ah renbaat rumta.
from the day on which, having given commandment through the Holy Ghost to the apostles whom He had chosen, He was received up.
3 Heh tiita dowa ih sa rookbaji lini ething toomjat rum hang ngeh ih hedop hedop heliphante loong suh noisokta. Heliphante loong ih uh tup ih rumta, eno Rangte hasong tiit ah roongwaan rumta.
To whom He also, after He suffered, manifested Himself alive in many testimonials, being seen by them forty days, and speaking the things concerning the kingdom of God:
4 Neng loong ah eroom ih khoontong rum adi arah jengdang ah baat rumta: “Jerusalem ah nak thiinhaat an, erah nang ebah ngah ih baat rum taha ranglakkot ah bansoktheng, seng Wah ih kot etheng ngeh ih kakhatta rah ah.
and being assembled together with them, He commanded them, Not to depart from Jerusalem, but to await the promise of the Father which ye heard from me;
5 Joon ih juutem ah ju nawa ih tem tahan, enoothong rekam lidoh sen loong ah Esa Chiiala nawa ih tem han.”
that John indeed baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.
6 Kaamwah loong ah Jisu damdi eroom ih chomui rumta doh, neng ih heh suh cheng rumta, “Teesu, hasong ah amadoh Ijirel suh ngaakkot nih uh?”
Therefore indeed having assembled, they asked Him saying, Lord, do you at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?
7 Jisu ih baat rumta, “Saapoot nyia rangwu ah seng Wah luulu ih jat ah erah mabah ang ah sen ih jatjih tah angka, hechaan hephaan khui ni thiinha.
He said to them; It is not your province, to know the times or seasons, which the Father placed in His own authority.
8 Enoothong sen taangnah Esa Chiiala raaha doh, sen loong ah chaan aphaan pan ang an, eno sen loong ah Jerusalem nah, Judia nah, Samaria nah nyia hakong rookwet nah nga haaki ang an.”
But you shall receive the power of the Holy Ghost having come upon you, and shall be my witnesses both in Jerusalem, and all Judea, and in Samaria, and into the extremity of the earth.
9 Erah baat rumta lilih, heh rang ni toonsiit wan arah phansok rumta, eno neng miksoksok di jiimu ih loop wanta.
And having spoken these words, they looking, He was taken up, and a cloud received Him from their eyes.
10 Toon soonwang kano neng mik ah rangko sokwan roh ih rumta, eno nyuh epu ah kap ano mih wanyi neng reeni dongchap haano
And while they were gazing up into the heaven, He going, and behold, two men stood by them in white garments, who also said,
11 baat rumta, “Galiliite oh, rangko tiimjih sokwan lan? Jisu, sen re nawa rang ni toonsiit wanta, erah likhiikkhiik ih rang nawa ngaak raaha rah japtup an.”
Ye Galilean men, why stand you looking up into the heaven? this same Jesus, the One having been received up into the heaven, will so come in the manner in which you saw Him going up into the heaven.
12 Erah lih adi heliphante loong ah Olip Kong dowa Jerusalem ni ngaakwang rumta, erah hah dowa meesiit chang angta.
Then they returned into Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, being a journey of a Sabbath day.
13 Erah hah adi thokrum ano neng tongta nok rangkhoh ko nokkhok adi duuwang rumta: Erah di langla, Pitar, Joon, Jeems nyia Andriu, Philip nyia Thomas, Bartholomi nyia Mathiu, Alphias sah Jeems, Deek akaan raangtaan laatte Simoon, nyia Jeems sah Judaas loong angta.
And when they came in, they went up into the upper room, where Peter and John and James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alpheus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James, were abiding.
14 Neng loong ah rangsoom raangtaan ih minuh loong nyia Jisu nuh Meeri erah damdi heh phoh nyia heh no loong damdi hepoot hepoot khoontong rumta.
They were all persevering of one accord in prayer along with the women, and Mary, the mother of Jesus, and His brothers.
15 Saajombaji lidi chaasit rooknyi mih rangsoomte loong khoontong rum adi, Pitar toonchap ano jengta.
And during those days, Peter standing up in the midst of the brethren, said (and the number of names were about one hundred and twenty),
16 Pitar ih liita, “Nga joonte loong, Esa Chiiala ih Dewid jeng thukta erah Rangteele ni raangha ah amiimi ih thok ha, Judaas ah Jisu jootkhak doh lamsiitte ang ah ngeh ih ah.
Men, brethren, it behooved the scripture which the Holy Ghost predicted through the mouth of David concerning Judas, the one becoming leader to those arresting Jesus, to be fulfilled;
17 Judaas ah sengdung dowa wasiit heh mootkaatte taat danjeeta.” (
because he was numbered among us and received the lot of this ministry.
18 Judaas ih marah lalangka lampo nawa biita ngun ih reta phek adi tiita, heh wok ah raapphok ano heh leh loong ah nuudat eta.
Then indeed he purchased a field by the reward of iniquity, and falling headlong, burst asunder in the middle, and all his bowels burst out;
19 Jerusalem ni songtongte loong ah ih erah japchaat rum ano, neng jenglam ih erah phek asuh Akeldama ngeh ih men rumta, erah langla “Sih Phek ngeh ah”)
which indeed was known to all those dwelling at Jerusalem, so that field, in their own dialect, is called Acheldamach; that is, field of blood.
20 “Rangsoom boong leedap ni raangha, ‘Heh nok ah ehu ih toom hoon ah; erah doh o uh naktoom tong ah.’ Amah uh raang eha, ‘Heh mootkaat ah o bah uh reeraang pakna toom ih ah.’
For it has been written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let there be no one dwelling in it, and let another take his pastorate.
21 “Erah thoidoh, seng damdoh o bah uh weeje etheng seng Teesu Jisu Kristo ngaaksaat tiit toombaatte ah. Enoothong erah mih ah langla sengdung dowa ang theng. Seng Teesu Jisu seng damdi saarookwet roongkhoom taha di roong mootkaatte dowa mih ang theng, Joon ih juutem Ruurang tumbaatta dowa ih Jisu rang ni toonsiit wanta di o thok roong khoomta erah mih ah ang theng.”
Therefore the men having come together with us all the time in which the Lord Jesus came in unto us and went out,
beginning from the baptism of John, until the day on which He was taken up from us, it behooveth one of these to be witness of His resurrection along with us.
23 Erah thoidi mih wanyi danje rumta: Josep, Barsabbas ngeh ih poon rumta ah (Justas ngeh ih uh li ih rumta), nyia Mathias ah.
And they nominated two, Joseph, called Barsabas who was called Justus, and Matthias.
24 Eno rangsoom koh rumta, “Teesu, an ih warep tenthun ah jat ehu, erah wanyi tung dowa o ah danje hu erah seng suh jatthuk he
And praying they said, Thou, O Lord, Heart-searcher of all, show up the one of these two, whom thou hast chosen
25 Judaas maako kaat theng angta kaat eta erah saklek ah an liphante raangtaan ih jatthuk he”
to receive the place of this ministry and apostleship from which Judas departed to go into his own place.
26 Eno nengnyi men o danje theng ah erah tootoon rumta, eno Mathias ah danje rumta, asih wasiit kaamwah loong damdi roong angtheng ngeh ah.
And they gave lots for them, and the lot fell upon Matthias; and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
