Joon 1
1 Mongrep maang dongsiitka di, Rangte Jengkhaap ah eje angta; heh Rangte damdi angta, eno Jengkhaap ah Rangte angta.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 Ephangdong dowa ih Jengkhaap ah Rangte damdi angta.
The same was in the beginning with God.
3 Rangte ih jirep ah heh jun ih dongsiitta; jaatrep dongsiitta dowa esiit taan uh heh jun ih ladongka rah tajeeka.
All things were made by Him, and without Him nothing was made, that has been made.
4 Jengkhaap ah roidong choh lampo angta, eno roidong erah ih mina raangtaan ih weephaak thukta.
In Him was life, and the life was the light of the men.
5 Weephaak ah rangnak khoni phaakta, eno rangnak ih erah weephaak ah mabah uh tajen met siitta.
And the light shineth in the darkness, and the darkness comprehended it not.
6 Rangte ih weephaak tiit ah mina suh baat thuksuh, mih wasiit Joon ngeh ih kongphaak kotte kaat thukta,
There was a man having been sent from God, whose name was John;
7 tiimnge liidi, heh tiitkhaap ah loongtang ih chaat rum ano hanpi toom ih rum ah.
The same came for a witness, that he might bear witness concerning the light, in order that all through him might believe.
8 Heh teewah bah amiisak di weephaak tah angta; weephaak tiit ah ba baatkaat taha.
He was not the light, but came that he might bear witness concerning the light.
9 Erah baatta langla amiisak weephaak ah angta, erah weephaak ah arah mongrep adi ra haano mina loongtang suh kaangtook koha.
That was the true light, which lighteth every man, coming into the world.
10 Jengkhaap ah langla arah mongrep adi angta, arah mongrep ah Rangte ih heh mendi hoonta bah uh, arah mongrep dowa mina ih tasamjat rumta.
He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew Him not.
11 Heh teewah deek akaan ni ra taha, erabah uh heh miloong ah ih heh jeng ah takap rumta.
He came unto His own, and His own received Him not.
12 Enoothong, o mina ih heh jeng ah kap ih rum ano hanpi rumta, erah miloong ah Rangte suh asah eh hoon suh epun e ah.
But so many as received Him, to them gave He the right to become the children of God, to those believing on His name:
13 Neng loong ah Rangte sah ih hoonta, mina hansi nuh awah nawa tup arah tah angta; Rangte ah neng loong raangtaan ih neng Wah eh hoonta.
who were born not of bloods, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 Jengkhaap ah mina eh donghoonta eno minchan nyia amiisak pan angta, seng loong damdi roong songtong taha. Heh rangka ah seng ih tup eti, erah rangka ah Hewah jiin nawa Hesah heh luulu ang thoidi choha.
The Word was made flesh, and tented among us (and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten with the Father), full of grace and truth.
15 Joon ih heh tiit baatta adoh erongrongwah ih riibaatta, “Arah tiit ah ngah ih amah kabaat rum taha, ‘Heh nga lidoh raaha, enoothong nga nang ih heh elong ang ah, tiimnge liidi ngah maang tup diidook heh eje angta.’”
John beareth witness concerning Him, and cried out saying; This is He of whom I spoke, He that cometh after me has been before me:
16 Heh jiinni minchan ehan je thoidi loongtang suh romseetam koh hali, seng loong asuh esiit esiit suh romseetam koh hali.
because He was my Creator. And of His fullness we all received grace upon grace.
17 Rangte ih Moses jun ih Hootthe kota, enoothong minchan nyia amiisak tiit ah Jisu Kristo jun ih koh hali.
Because the law was given by Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
18 Rangte ah oh ih uh tathaak tupka. Rangte reeni Hewah tooto ih tongla, Hesah asuh luulu ba jatthuk ha.
No one has ever seen God; the only begotten Son, the one being in the bosom of the Father, He hath declared him.
19 Jerusalem dowa Jehudi ngoong awang loong ah ih romwah nyia Lewi nok hah marah marah loong ah Joon reeni kaat thuk rum ano, chengkaat thuk rumta, “An o anglu?”
This is the testimony of John when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem, that they might ask him,
20 Joon ih neng suh ngaakbaat ah tah daanta, enoothong neng suh saasa ih dokbaat rumta, Heh ih baat rumta: [Ngah Kristo tah angkang.]
Who art thou? and he confessed and denied not, and confessed that, I am not the Christ.
21 [Eno bah, an ah o anglu?] Neng ih ngaak chengta. [An Elija tam ah?] “Tah angkang,” Joon ih ngaakbaat rumta. “An Khowah tam anglu?” Neng loong ah ih ngaakcheng rumta. “Tah angkang,” Joon ih ngaakbaat rumta.
They asked him, What then? Art thou Elijah? And he says, I am not. Art thou that prophet?
22 “Eno bah an ah o anglu baat he,” neng loong ah ih cheng rumta. “Seng daap kaatte loong asuh an o anglu erah tiit ah ngaakbaat wantheng. An teewah suh an ih tiimjih li hu?]
And he responded, No. Then they said to him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to those having sent us. What do you say concerning yourself?
23 Khowah Isaia Jengkhaap ah baat ano ngaak jengta; [Phisang hah mong ni riila root ah langla ngah; Teesu lengkhoom suh lamjun in ban tan an!]
I am the voice of one roaring in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord as Isaiah the prophet said.
24 Pharisi nok hah, ih kaat thukta kongphaak kotte, loong ah ih
And those having been sent were of the Pharisees.
25 Joon suh cheng rumta, [An Kristo uh tah angko, Elija uh tah angko adoleh Khowah uh tah angko, eno bah juutem ah mamah ih temhu?]
And they asked him, and said to him, Then why do you baptize, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor that prophet?
26 Joon ih ngaakbaat rumta, [Ngah ih ju nawa ih juutem rumhala, enoothong sengdung ni wasiit chapla ah sen ih tajatkan.
John responded to them, saying, I baptize with water: There standeth One in your midst whom you do not know,
27 Erah mih ah nga lih ni ra hala, enoothong ngah bah heh lakhoop adoleh heh lasong khook haattha uh taluikang.]
the One coming after me, of whom I am not worthy that I may loose the latchet of His sandal.
28 Arah tiit ah Bethani ni Joon ih Jordan ju saadongko ni juutemta erah di roongwaan rumta.
These things took place in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
29 Erah saalih adi Jisu heh taang ni wangha rah Joon ih japtup ano, liita, [Rangte Saapsah ah arah, arah mongrep dowa rangdah saasiitte ah erah wang hala!
On the following day he sees Jesus coming to him, and says, Behold the Lamb of God, that taketh away the sin of the world.
30 Ngah roongwaan tahang adi arah warah tiit laangbo baat rum taha, ngah ih amah baat rum taha, ‘Nga lidoh mih wasiit raaha, enoothong heh ngah nang ih elong, tiimnge liidi heh ngah maang tupdoh heh eje angta.’
This is He concerning whom I spoke, A man cometh after me who has been before me: because he was my Creator.
31 Ngah ih heh o ang ah ngeh ih tah jattang, enoothong, heh ah Ijirel noksong ih toomjat rum ah ngeh ih juutem ra tahang.]
And I did not know Him, but in order that He may be made manifest to Israel, on this account I came baptizing with water.
32 Eno Joon ih heteewah tiitkhaap tiit baat rumta: [Ngah ih Chiiala ah wotuupi likhiik rang nawa ra haano heh sakkhoh ni dangra ha rah tuptang.
And John testified saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and remained on Him.
33 Erabah uh ngah ih tajattang heh o angla. Enoothong juutem kaat thuk tahang Rangte ah ih baat tahang, ‘An ih Chiiala ra haano mih wasiit sak nah tong raaha rah japtup uh; Esa Chiiala nawa ih juutemte warah heh ang ah.’
And I did not know Him, but the One having sent me to baptize with water, He said to me, On whom you may see the Spirit descending and remaining on Him, He is the one baptizing with the Holy Ghost.
34 Ngah ih tup ehang,” Joon ih liita, [eno ngah ih baat rumhala Rangte Sah ah bah heh ju.]
And I have seen, and testified that He is the Son of God.
35 Erah saalih adi heliphante wanyi damdi Joon we toonchap adi,
On the following day John again stood, and two of his disciples,
36 Jisu lengkhoom ah japtup ano liita. [Rangte Saapsah ah the warah aleh!]
and looking upon Jesus walking about, says, Behold, the Lamb of God.
37 Heliphante wanyi ah ih Joon jeng ah japchaat nyu ano Jisu damdi roong kanyuuta.
And the two disciples heard him speaking and followed Jesus.
38 Jisu lekchap ih adi, nengnyi helilih ih kah arah japtup nyu ano cheng nyuuta, [Set ih tiimjih jamsok hansih?] Nengnyi ih ngaakbaat nyuuta, [An mani tonglu Rabbi?] (Rabbi ah Hebrew lam ih [Nyootte[ suh liiha)
Jesus turning and seeing them following, says to them, What are you seeking? and they said to Him, Doctor, (which is said, being interpreted, Teacher), where dwellest thou?
39 [Sok raathaak hansih ba,” heh ih ngaakbaat nyuuta. (Erah tokdi rangsa lup nanah angta.) Erah thoidi heh damdi roong kah nyu ano heh mani songtongta rah japtup kanyuuta eno erah sa adi heh damdi naangjam nyuuta.
He says to them; Come and see. Then they came and saw where He dwelleth, and they abode with Him that day: it was about the tenth hour.
40 Erah nyi dowa wasiit ah Simon Pitar no Andriu angta.
Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two hearing from John, and follows Him;
41 Erah damdam heh phoh Simon ah japtup ano baatta, [Seknyi Misia chomui li tih.] (Misia ah [Kristo[ suh liiha)
he first finds his own brother Simon, and says to him, We have found Messiah, which is being interpreted, Christ.
42 Eno heh ih Simon ah Jisu taang ni siitwanta. Jisu heh taangko sok ano liita, [An Joon sah Simon, enoothong an ah Sephas ngeh ih poonho.] (Erah langla Pitar suh [jong[ ngeh ih liita likhiik)
He led him to Jesus. Jesus looking upon him said; Thou art Simon the Son of Jonah, thou shalt be called Cephas (which is interpreted, Peter).
43 Erah saalih adi Jisu Galili ni kaat chungta. Heh ih Philip ah japtup ano baatta, [Nga damdoh roongra ho!] (
On the following day he wished to depart into Galilee, and he finds Philip. And Jesus says to him; Follow me.
44 Philip ah Pitar nyia Andriu tongla hah, Betsaida nawa angta.)
Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter.
45 Philip ih Nathanel ah japtup ano heh suh baatta, [Hootthe leedap ni Moses nyia khowah loong ih nep raangta ah seng ih japtup ehi. Heh langla Jisu, Najaret hadaang dowa Josep sah ah.]
Philip finds Nathanael and says to him, We have found Him, of whom Moses and the prophets, in the law, did write, Jesus the son of Joseph, who is from Nazareth.
46 [Najaret nawa tiim bah uh ese thok nih eha?] Nathanel ih chengta. [Raaho no sok uh,” Philip ih ngaak baatta.
Nathanael said to him, Is any good thing able to come out of Nazareth? Philip says to him, Come and see.
47 Jisu ih Nathanel ah heh reeni kaat ah tup ano liita, [Ijirel mina mi abah arah; heh tiim ni uh tathika!]
Jesus saw Nathanael coming to Him, and says concerning him, Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom there is no guile.
48 Nathanel ih heh suh chengta, An ih ngah mamah ih jat halang?] Jisu ih ngaak baatta, [Philip ih maang poon ruudi phuksak bang lathong ni ang uh rah jap tup taha.]
Nathanael says to Him, Whence do you know me? Jesus responded and said to him, Before Philip called you, I saw you, being under the fig-tree.
49 [Nyootte[ Nathanel ih ngaak baatta, [an juuba Rangte Sah! An Ijirel Luuwang!]
Nathanael responded, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God, the King of Israel.
50 Jisu ih chengta, [Phuksak bang lathong ni angtu adi japtup taha ngeh ih li kohaano tam hanpi halang? An ih erah tokkhodoh elong japtup uh!]
Jesus responded and said to him, Because I said to thee, that I saw thee under the fig-tree, dost thou believe? thou shalt see greater things than these.
51 Eno neng suh li rumta, [Ngah ih amiisak tiit ah baat rumhala: Rangmong ah laangdaap adoh Rangsah loong ah Mina Sah reenah chookwang datkah ih lengkhoom arah japtup an.
And He says to him, Truly, truly, I say unto you, you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.
