Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
1Many have undertaken to compose an account of the things that have been fulfilled among us,
1Ngangau marapujeli wontjana wonti kaukaubani jaura dakala nunkangundru, mina ngaianangu terti pantjina wonti, ja ngaiani morlalu milkila,
2just as they were handed down to us by the initial eyewitnesses and servants of the word.
2Jeruja worderu tanali ngaianangu kaukaubana wonti, tana ngoperandru milkieli najina wonti ja jaura jinkinietja pantjina wonti.
3Therefore, having carefully investigated everything from the beginning, it seemed good also to me to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theophilus,
3Jeruja bakana ngato ngundrana warai, ngato ngoperandru pratjana jiglerali matja jakalkana warai, jenia jinkangu talku dakala, Theophilai ngantjalu.
4so that you may know the certainty of the things you have been taught.
4Ngangau jundru talku ngujamananto tananapini jaura, tanangu jundru ngujangujara matja manina.
5In the time of Herod king of Judea there was a priest named Zechariah, who belonged to the priestly division of Abijah, and whose wife Elizabeth was a daughter of Aaron.
5Herodes Judaia mitaia kaparaia ditjini Priesta kulno nganana wonti, tala nunkani Zacharias, Abiaia mardundru, ja noa nunkani Aaroni ngatamura widlandru, tala nankani Elisabeth.
6Both of them were righteous in the sight of God, walking blamelessly in all the commandments and decrees of the Lord.
6Pudla talku nganana wonti Godani, ja Kaparaia jirijiribani jaura pratjanani ja talkulani ngumu wodatarana ngamana wonti.
7But they had no children, because Elizabeth was barren, and they were both well along in years.
7Pudlali wata kupa ngamalkana wonti, ngangau Elisabeth ngameri nganana wonti, ja pudla kilpawoldra marapuni wiringana wonti.
8One day while Zechariah’s division was on duty and he was serving as priest before God,
8Ja jendranguta nulu Priestaia mangini ngamalkana wonti marduwittani nunkanani Godani.
9he was chosen by lot, according to the custom of the priesthood, to enter the temple of the Lord and burn incense.
9Ja Priestaia wondrani malkali nina patana wonti kuli ngumu tarala, nau Godaia Kaparaia pungani wirina wonti.
10And at the hour of the incense offering, the whole congregation was praying outside.
10Ja kana wolara palarani terkana wonti ngatjila kuli ngumuja ditjini.
11Just then an angel of the Lord appeared to Zechariah, standing at the right side of the altar of incense.
11Ja Kaparaia angela kulno nunkangu wondraterina wonti, nau turutupu Altaraia ngunarani terkana wonti.
12When Zechariah saw him, he was startled and gripped with fear.
12Ja Zachariali nina najina, nau ngarrana wonti ja japali pantjina wonti.
13But the angel said to him, “Do not be afraid, Zechariah, because your prayer has been heard. Your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you are to give him the name John.
13Angela nunkangu jatana wonti: „Wata japali nganau Zachariajai, ngangau ngatjina jinkani ngarana warai, ja noajeli jinkanali jinkangu kanku dankala nganai, ja jundru tala nunkani dikala nganai: Johannes.
14He will be a joy and delight to you, and many will rejoice at his birth,
14Ja jundru mankina ja murla ngamalkala nganai, ja marapu mankila nganai nunkani dankanandru,
15for he will be great in the sight of the Lord. He shall never take wine or strong drink, and he will be filled with the Holy Spirit even from his mother’s womb.
15Ngangau nau pirna nganala nganai Kaparani; ja waina ja tapana ngurunguru nulu wata tapala nganai, ja Jaolali kulikirieli nau manamiri pantjila nganai nunkani ngandri mandrandru.
16Many of the sons of Israel he will turn back to the Lord their God.
16Ja nulu Israelaia ngatamura marapu karitjimalkala nganai Kaparani Godani tananani.
17And he will go on before the Lord in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers to their children and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous—to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.”
17Ja nau nunkangu ngopera wapala nganai Eliaia jaolali ja ngurungurulali, ngaperi woraia ngara kupa worani, ja delkinietja talkulaia kirilani karitjimalkala, Kaparani kana wolara talku ngankingala.“
18“How can I be sure of this?” Zechariah asked the angel. “I am an old man, and my wife is well along in years.”
18Ja Zacharias angelani jatana wonti: „Worderu ngato jenia ngujamananto? Ngangau ngani pinaru, ja noa ngakani nankani ditji marapuni wiringana warai.“
19“I am Gabriel,” replied the angel. “I stand in the presence of God, and I have been sent to speak to you and to bring you this good news.
19Ja angelali kalabana wonti ja nunkangu jatana wonti: „Ngani Gabrieli nganai, nauja Godani terkai, ja Nulia ngana jinpana warai, jinkangu ngankamalinanto, ja ninapini ngantjani jaura jinkangu kaukaubananto.
20And now you will be silent and unable to speak until the day this comes to pass, because you did not believe my words, which will be fulfilled at their proper time.”
20Ja mai, jidni ngapurila nganai ja ngandandarila nganai jatala nunkangupini ditjielu, nunkangupini jenia morlalu pantjila nganai; ngangau jundru jaurani ngakanani wata morlalu ngundrana warai, tanaia morlalu pantjila nganai ditjini tananani.“
21Meanwhile, the people were waiting for Zechariah and wondering why he took so long in the temple.
21Ja kana wolarali kalkana wonti Zachariangu, to tana ngaruparana wonti, ngangau nau juri ngamana wonti Godaia pungani.
22When he came out and was unable to speak to them, they realized he had seen a vision in the temple. He kept making signs to them but remained speechless.
22Nau matja dunkana kurana, nau ngandandarina wonti tanangu ngankamalila, ja tanali ngujamana wonti, nulu mudla Godaia pungani najina warai, ja nau tanangu marali wondraterina wonti ja ngapu nganana wonti.
23And when the days of his service were complete, he returned home.
23Ja jendranguta ngankana ditji nunkani matja mudana, nau tikana wonti pungaia nunkanaia.
24After these days, his wife Elizabeth became pregnant and for five months remained in seclusion. She declared,
24Tanangupini ditjini ngadani, Elisabeth noa nunkani mandrantjurina wonti; ja nani kurukuru ngamalkaterina wonti pira mara wora, ja jatana wonti:
25“The Lord has done this for me. In these days He has shown me favor and taken away my disgrace among the people.”
25„Jeruja Kaparali tanangupini ditjini ngakangu ngankana paraia, tanangu Nulia ngana najina, ninta ngakani kanandru manila.“ (Ngantjani‐jaura Mariananka talpadakani ditjini.)
26In the sixth month, God sent the angel Gabriel to a town in Galilee called Nazareth,
26Pirani mara wora ja kulnuni Godali angela Gabriel jinpana wonti ngura kulnuja Galilaiaia, tala nunkani Nazaret.
27to a virgin pledged in marriage to a man named Joseph, who was of the house of David. And the virgin’s name was Mary.
27Mankara kulnuni, nandru talpadakana wonti materi kulnuni, tala nunkani Joseph, Davidani pungandru; ja mankaraia tala Maria nganana wonti.
28The angel appeared to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.”
28Ja angela nankangu wirina wonti ja jatana wonti: „Murlali nganamai murlamaninietjajai; Kapara jinkangunto, jidni murlali pirna nganai widlani!“
29Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be.
29Nandru nina najina, nani ngaruparana wonti nunkani jaurandru, ja ngundraterina wonti, mina mandurini jaura jenia nganai.
30So the angel told her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.
30Ja angela nankangu jatana wonti: „Wata japali nganau Mariajai; ngangau jundru manjula mankamankana warai Godani.
31Behold, you will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to give Him the name Jesus.
31Ja mai, jidni mandrantjurila nganai, ja kanku kulno dankala nganai, ja tala nunkani dikala nganai: «JESUS.»
32He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David,
32Naupini pirna nganala nganai, ja tanali nina Kapara pirnaia Ngatamura dikala nganai, ja Goda Kaparali nunkangu jinkila nganai ngaperaia nunkanaia Davidani pirnalaia piri.
33and He will reign over the house of Jacob forever. His kingdom will never end!”
33Ja Nau Kapara nganala nganai Jakobani pungani ngurali, ja milila nunkani wata mudala nganai.“
34“How can this be,” Mary asked the angel, “since I am a virgin?”
34Maria angelani jatana wonti: „Worderu jenia nganala nganai, ngangau ngato noa wata ngujamai?“
35The angel replied, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the Holy One to be born will be called the Son of God.
35Ja angelali kalabana wonti ja jatana wonti: „Jaola kulikiri jinkangu ngarila nganai, ja Kapara pirnaia ngurulali jidna walpala nganai; ngangau bakana nina Kulikirila, nina jundru dankala nganai, tanali Godaia Ngatamura dikala nganai.
36Look, even Elizabeth your relative has conceived a son in her old age, and she who was called barren is in her sixth month.
36Ja mai, Elisabeth kamaneli jinkani bakana mandrantju nganai kankunto, ja naupini pira mara wora ja kulno nganai nankangu, nana tanali ngameri dikai.
37For no word from God will ever fail.”
37Ngarla Godata wata ngandandarila nganai jaura pratjanani.“
38“I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May it happen to me according to your word.” Then the angel left her.
38Maria jatana wonti: „Mai, ngani Kaparaia mili nganai, ngakangu pantjiatimai worderu jidni jatana warai!“ Ja angela nankangundru kutingana wonti. (Ngantjani jaura Mariananka mandurini ditjini)
39In those days Mary got ready and hurried to a town in the hill country of Judah,
39Maria terkakana wonti tanangupini ditjini, ja palkana wonti mardawonpaia ngura kulnuja Judaiaia.
40where she entered the home of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth.
40Ja Zachariani pungani wirina wonti ja Elisabethangu mandurini jaura jinkina wonti.
41When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.
41Ja jendranguta Elisabethandru Mariani mandurini jaura ngarana wonti, kupa nankani mandrani kulkungana wonti; ja Elisabeth manamiri pantjina wonti Jaolali kulikirieli.
42In a loud voice she exclaimed, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!
42Ja nani ngaiala pirnali maritjina wonti ja jatana wonti: „Murlali pirna jidni nganai widlani, ja murlali pirna jinkani mandraia tandra nganai!
43And why am I so honored, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
43Ja wodajerindru jenia ngakangu, Kaparaia ngakanaia ngandri ngakangu wokarananto?
44For as soon as the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy.
44Ngangau mai, matja mandurini jaura jinkani ngakangu talpani wirina, kupa mandrani ngakanani mankina kulkungana warai.
45Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord’s word to her will be fulfilled.”
45Ja murlali pirna nandru morlalu ngundrana paraia, ngangau morlalu jenia pantjila nganai, mina nankangu Kapara jatana paraia.“
46Then Mary said: “My soul magnifies the Lord,
46Ja Maria jatana wonti: „Mungarali ngakanali Kapara jurakokala wapaia,
47and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior!
47Ja jaolali ngakanali Goda Kulkanipirnandru ngakanani mankila wapaia,
48For He has looked with favor on the humble state of His servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed.
48Ngangau Nulia najina wonti nunkani mili waka. Ngangau mai, kararindru ngana jurakokala nganai kana nguja warupotujeli.
49For the Mighty One has done great things for me. Holy is His name.
49Ngangau ngakangu pirnala ngankana paraia Nauja ngurunguru, ja kulikiri tala nunkani nganai.
50His mercy extends to those who fear Him, from generation to generation.
50Ja kalumiltjamiltjarina nunkani ngujandru ngujani nganai tanangu, tana nunkangundru japali nganai.
51He has performed mighty deeds with His arm; He has scattered those who are proud in the thoughts of their hearts.
51Nulia ngurungurula ngankana wonti ngunarali nunkanali; Nulia piltjaru ngankana wonti tanana ngara ngundranani tananani pirna ngundrateriai;
52He has brought down rulers from their thrones, but has exalted the humble.
52Nulia kapara worana worarana wonti pirnalaia pirindru ja wakawaka miri ngankana wonti.
53He has filled the hungry with good things, but has sent the rich away empty.
53Tana maua nganana, Nulia potujeli manamiri ngankana wonti; ja tana poto pirnanto Nulia kala jinpana wonti.
54He has helped His servant Israel, remembering to be merciful,
54Nulia Israeli milini nunkanani marangokana wonti kalumiltjamiltjarina nunkani ngundrala.
55as He promised to our fathers, to Abraham and his descendants forever.”
55Worderu Nauja jatana wonti ngaianani ngaperi worani, Abrahamangu ja ngatamurani nunkanani ngurali.“
56Mary stayed with Elizabeth for about three months and then returned home.
56Maria nankangu jela pira parkulu ngamana wonti, ja ngadani pungaia nankanaia tikana wonti. (Ngantjani‐jaura Johannes multibanietjaia ditjini.)
57When the time came for Elizabeth to have her child, she gave birth to a son.
57Elisabethananka ditji matja wokarana, nandru dankananto, ja nandru kupa ngatani dankana wonti.
58Her neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had shown her great mercy, and they rejoiced with her.
58Ja jenimalinietjali ja kamanelieli nankanali ngarana wonti worderu Kapara kalumiltjamiltjarina nunkani nankangu pirna ngankala wiri; ja tana nankangunto mankina wonti.
59On the eighth day, when they came to circumcise the child, they were going to name him after his father Zechariah.
59Ja jendranguta ditji mara wora ja parkulani tana wokarana wonti nina kanku karuwali ngankala, ja tanali nina ngaperi nunkani jeri „Zacharias“ dikana wonti.
60But his mother replied, “No! He shall be called John.”
60Ja ngandrieli nunkanali kalabana wonti ja jatana wonti: „A‐ai, Johannes tala nunkani nganala nganai.“
61They said to her, “There is no one among your relatives who bears this name.”
61Ja tana nankangu jatana wonti: „Wata kamaneli kulno jinkani nganai, nina tanali ninapini tala dikai.“
62So they made signs to his father to find out what he wanted to name the child.
62Tanali ngaperi nunkani marali jekibana wonti, worderu nulu ngantjai ninaia dikala.
63Zechariah asked for a tablet and wrote, “His name is John.” And they were all amazed.
63Ja nau ngatjina wonti marda pirrapirrani ja dakana wonti ja jatana wonti: „Johannes tala nunkani nganai.“ Ja tana pratjana ngaruparana wonti.
64Immediately Zechariah’s mouth was opened and his tongue was released, and he began to speak, praising God.
64Nurujeli mana nunkani piririna wonti, ja tali nunkani walturina wonti, ja nau jatana wonti ja Goda jurakokana wonti.
65All their neighbors were filled with awe, and people throughout the hill country of Judea were talking about these events.
65Ja jenimalinietja pratjana japali pantjina wonti, ja Judaia mardawonpa worani tana ngankamalina wonti jenia jaura pratjanandru.
66And all who heard this wondered in their hearts and asked, “What then will this child become?” For the Lord’s hand was with him.
66Ja pratjana, tanali jenia ngarana wonti, jenia ngarali patana wonti ja jatana wonti: „Mina naupini kupa pantjila nganai?“ Ngangau Kaparaia mara nunkangunto nganana wonti.
67Then his father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied:
67Ja Zacharias, ngaperi nunkani, Jaolali kulikirieli manamiri pantjina wonti, ja nulu talpadakana wonti ja jatana wonti:
68“Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, because He has visited and redeemed His people.
68„Jurakokana nganaiatimai Kaparani, Israelaia Godani, ngangau Nulia najina wonti ja kulkana ngankingana wonti kana wolarani nunkanani,
69He has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of His servant David,
69Ja Nulia murlaia jurietjali ngaianangu jiritjibana wonti Davidani milini nunkanani pungani,
70as He spoke through His holy prophets, those of ages past,
70Worderu Nauja jatana wonti nunkani Prophetaia kulikiria manali, tana ngopera nganana wonti.
71salvation from our enemies and from the hand of all who hate us,
71Nulia ngaianana kulkananto ngaianani talpalandru, ja mara pratjanandru tana ngaianangu kalakalariai,
72to show mercy to our fathers and to remember His holy covenant,
72Kalumiltjamiltjarina ngankala ngaianani ngaperi worani, ja ngundrala nunkani Testamenta kulikiri;
73the oath He swore to our father Abraham, to grant us
73Jaura morlalu, nina Nulia talpadakana wonti Abrahamangu ngaperi ngaiananani, ngaianangu jinkila.
74deliverance from hostile hands, that we may serve Him without fear,
74Ngangau ngaiana japanguru, Nulia ngaiananana tulaia marani matja kulkana, mili nunkani nganananto.
75in holiness and righteousness before Him all the days of our lives.
75Kulikirilani ja talkulani nunkani mudlani ditjini warupotuni ngaiananani.
76And you, child, will be called a prophet of the Most High; for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for Him,
76Ja bakana jidna, kupajai, tanali Kapara pirnaia Propheta dikala nganai, ngangau jidni ngopera wapala nganai Kaparaia mudlani, palto nunkani ngankingala.
77to give to His people the knowledge of salvation through the forgiveness of their sins,
77Murlaia ngujamani jinkila kana wolarani nunkanani, madlentji tanani kalingala.
78because of the tender mercy of our God, by which the Dawn will visit us from on high,
78Godaia ngaiananaia ngarali kalumiltjamiltjarinandru, nunkangundru ngaianangu mirindru praitji dunkana warai,
79to shine on those who live in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace.”
79Tanangu mintjila, tana ngalpurani ja naria pungalani ngamanani, ngaianani tidna murlaia paltuni wirilkala.“
80And the child grew and became strong in spirit; and he lived in the wilderness until the time of his public appearance to Israel.
80Kupa pirnarina wonti ja ngurungururina wonti Jaolali; ja nau pitarani nganana wonti nunkangupini ditjielu, nau Juda kanani wondraterina wonti.
