Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1Many have undertaken to compose an account of the things that have been fulfilled among us,
1Nu sum, Theophilus, su fal in akfulatyeyuk: Pus mwet ma arulana oaru in orani ac simusla ma su sikyak inmasrlosr.
2just as they were handed down to us by the initial eyewitnesses and servants of the word.
2Elos simusla ma su fwackme nu sesr sin mwet ma sifacna liye ma inge ac sulkakinelik ke tufahna mutawauk me.
3Therefore, having carefully investigated everything from the beginning, it seemed good also to me to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theophilus,
3Ke ma inge, leum fulat luk, ke sripen nga liksreni na lohang in lutlut ke ma inge ke mutawauk me, nga sifacna nunku mu ac wona ngan takunla nu sum ma sikyak uh.
4so that you may know the certainty of the things you have been taught.
4Nga oru ma inge kom in mau etu na pwaye ke ma nukewa ma lutiyuk kom kac.
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.
5In pacl se ma Herod el tuh tokosra in acn Judea, tuh oasr mwet tol se pangpang Zechariah, su ma in u lal Abijah, mwet tol. Mutan kial ah pa Elizabeth, su ma in fwilin tulik natul Aaron, mwet tol.
6Both of them were righteous in the sight of God, walking blamelessly in all the commandments and decrees of the Lord.
6Eltal kewa moulkin moul na suwohs ye mutun God, ac arulana oaru in akos ma sap ac oakwuk nukewa lun Leum God.
7But they had no children, because Elizabeth was barren, and they were both well along in years.
7Wangin tulik natultal, mweyen Elizabeth el tia ku in orek tulik, ac el ac Zechariah tukenina matuoh.
8One day while Zechariah’s division was on duty and he was serving as priest before God,
8Sie len ah Zechariah el oru orekma in tol lal ke sun pacl lun u lal in kulansap in Tempul.
9he was chosen by lot, according to the custom of the priesthood, to enter the temple of the Lord and burn incense.
9In oana oakwuk nu sin mwet tol uh, srisrngiyuki ke fa mu ac ma kunal in akosak mwe keng fin loang uh. Ouinge el utyak nu in Tempul lun Leum God,
10And at the hour of the incense offering, the whole congregation was praying outside.
10ac mwet puspis elos pre likinum uh ke ao in kisa mwe keng uh.
11Just then an angel of the Lord appeared to Zechariah, standing at the right side of the altar of incense.
11Sie lipufan lun Leum God sikyang nu sel, ac tu layen layot ke loang uh, yen mwe keng uh akokyak we.
12When Zechariah saw him, he was startled and gripped with fear.
12Ke Zechariah el liyalak el arulana lut ac sangengla.
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.
13Na lipufan sac fahk nu sel, “Zechariah, nimet sangeng. God El lohng pre lom. Elizabeth, mutan kiom, el ac fah oswela sie wen nutum. Kom ac fah sang inel John.
14He will be a joy and delight to you, and many will rejoice at his birth,
14Kom ac fah arulana engan, ac mwet puspis ac fah wi pac engan ke el ac isusla.
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.
15El ac fah sie mwet saok ye mutun Leum God. El ac fah tia nim wain, ku kutena mwe nim ku. El ac fah sesseslana ke Ngun Mutal, mutawauk ke el isusla me,
16Many of the sons of Israel he will turn back to the Lord their God.
16ac el ac fah forokla mwet puspis sin mwet Israel nu sin Leum God lalos.
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.”
17El ac fah fahsr meet liki Leum God, ke ngunin ku lal Elijah, mwet palu. El ac fah akwoyela inmasrlon papa ac tulik uh; el ac fah oru tuh mwet seakos in sifil nunak oana mwet suwoswos; el ac fah oru tuh mwet lun Leum God in akola nu sel.”
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.”
18Na Zechariah el fahk nu sin lipufan sac, “Nga ac etu fuka lah ac ouingan? Nga matuoh, ac mutan kiuk uh matuoh pac.”
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.
19Na lipufan sac fahk, “Nga pa Gabriel. Nga tu ye mutun God, su supweyume in tuh kaskas nu sum, ac fahkot pweng wo se inge nu sum.
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.”
20Tusruktu kom tia lulalfongi kas luk, su ac fah akpwayeiyuk in pacl fal. Ke sripen selulalfongi lom, kom ac fah tia ku in sramsram. Kom ac mutana tia kaskas nwe ke na akpwayeiyuk ma nga fahk nu sum inge.”
21Meanwhile, the people were waiting for Zechariah and wondering why he took so long in the temple.
21In pacl se inge, mwet uh mutana soanel Zechariah, ac suk lah efu ku el utyak arulana pahtlac in Tempul.
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.
22Ke el oatula, el tia ku in kaskas nu selos, ouinge elos akilen mu el liye sie aruruma in Tempul. Ke el tia ku in kaskas nu selos, el orekmakin na paol ac srisrsrisr nu selos.
23And when the days of his service were complete, he returned home.
23Ke safla pacl in kulansap lal Zechariah in Tempul uh, el folokla nu lohm sel ah.
24After these days, his wife Elizabeth became pregnant and for five months remained in seclusion. She declared,
24Tia paht toko, Elizabeth, mutan kial, el pitutuyak ac tiana illa liki lohm sel ke malem limekosr.
25“The Lord has done this for me. In these days He has shown me favor and taken away my disgrace among the people.”
25Ac el fahk, “Inge nga etu tuh Leum God El kasreyu. El eisla mwekin luk likiyu ye mutun mwet uh.”
26In the sixth month, God sent the angel Gabriel to a town in Galilee called Nazareth,
26Ke Elizabeth el pitutu malem onkosr, God El supwalla lipufan Gabriel nu in siti srisrik se in acn Galilee pangpang Nazareth.
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.
27Oasr sap soko el us nu sin sie mutan fusr virgin, su ako in payuk nu sin mukul se pangpang Joseph, su ma in fwilin tulik natul Tokosra David. Inen mutan fusr sac pa Mary.
28The angel appeared to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.”
28Lipufan sac tuku nu yorol ac fahk, “Paing kom! Leum God El wi kom, ac El arulana akinsewowoye kom!”
29Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be.
29Mary el arulana fohsak ke kas lun lipufan sac, ac el suk na lah mea kalmen ma el fahk uh.
30So the angel told her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.
30Na lipufan sac fahk nu sel, “Mary, nikmet sangeng, tuh kom ohi yurin God.
31Behold, you will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to give Him the name Jesus.
31Kom ac fah pitutuyak ac oswela sie wen, ac kom fah sang inel 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,
32El ac fah arulana fulat — ac fah pangpang el Wen nutin God Fulatlana. Leum God El ac fah oru tuh elan sie tokosra oana David, papa matu tumal,
33and He will reign over the house of Jacob forever. His kingdom will never end!”
33ac el ac fah leum fin fwilin tulik natul Jacob nwe tok. Tokosrai lal ac fah wangin saflaiya!”
34“How can this be,” Mary asked the angel, “since I am a virgin?”
34Na Mary el fahk nu sin lipufan sac, “Ma inge ac sikyak fuka, ke nga soenna etu mwet?”
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.
35Ac lipufan sac topuk ac fahk, “Ngun Mutal ac fah tuku nu fom, ac ku lun God ac fah oan fom. Ke sripa se inge, wen mutal se inge ac fah pangpang Wen nutin God.
36Look, even Elizabeth your relative has conceived a son in her old age, and she who was called barren is in her sixth month.
36Esamul Elizabeth, sie nina in sou lom an. Tuh fwack mu el tia ku in isus, a inge el pitutu malem onkosr lac, el finne arulana matuoh.
37For no word from God will ever fail.”
37Mweyen wangin ma God El kofla in oru.”
38“I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May it happen to me according to your word.” Then the angel left her.
38Na Mary el fahk, “Nga mwet kulansap lun Leum God. Lela ma inge in orek nu sik oana ke kom fahk.” Na lipufan sac som lukel.
39In those days Mary got ready and hurried to a town in the hill country of Judah,
39Tiana paht tukun ma inge, Mary el akola ac sulaklak na som nu in sie siti srisrik inmasrlon eol in acn Judea.
40where she entered the home of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth.
40El utyak nu in lohm sel Zechariah ac paingul Elizabeth.
41When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.
41Ke pacl se Elizabeth el lohng kusen paing lal Mary, tulik se insial ah mokuikui, ac Elizabeth el sesseslana ke Ngun Mutal,
42In a loud voice she exclaimed, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!
42ac fahk nu sel Mary ke pusra lulap, “Kom pa insewowo emeet sin mutan nukewa uh, ac insewowo tulik se su kom ac oswela an!
43And why am I so honored, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
43Efu ku ouiya na yohk se inge in sikyak nu sik, tuh nina kien Leum luk in tuku nu yuruk?
44For as soon as the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy.
44Ke pacl se na nga lohngak ke kom paingyu ah, tulik se insiuk inge srosro ke engan.
45Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord’s word to her will be fulfilled.”
45Fuka lupan insewowo lom ke kom lulalfongi lah kas lun Leum God nu sum ac fah akpwayeyuk!”
46Then Mary said: “My soul magnifies the Lord,
46Mary el fahk, “Insiuk kaksakin Leum God;
47and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior!
47Ngunik engan ke sripen God, Mwet Lango luk,
48For He has looked with favor on the humble state of His servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed.
48Tuh El esamyu, mutan kulansap pusisel lal! Ingela mwet in fwil nukewa ac fah pangonyu insewowo,
49For the Mighty One has done great things for me. Holy is His name.
49Ke sripen orekma yohk su God Kulana El oru nu sik. Inel mutallana;
50His mercy extends to those who fear Him, from generation to generation.
50Liki fwil nu ke fwil El akkalemye pakoten lal nu selos su sunakunul.
51He has performed mighty deeds with His arm; He has scattered those who are proud in the thoughts of their hearts.
51El asroela po kulana lal, Ac kunauselik pwapa lun mwet inse fulat.
52He has brought down rulers from their thrones, but has exalted the humble.
52El akpusiselye tokosra kulana liki tron lalos, Ac El akfulatye mwet pusisel.
53He has filled the hungry with good things, but has sent the rich away empty.
53El akkihpye mwet masrinsral ke ma wo, Ac supwalik mwet kasrup uh pisinpo.
54He has helped His servant Israel, remembering to be merciful,
54El sruokyana wulela lal nu sin mwet matu lasr, Ac tuku in kasru Israel, mwet kulansap lal.
55as He promised to our fathers, to Abraham and his descendants forever.”
55El esam in akkalemye pakoten lal nu sel Abraham Ac fwilin tulik nukewa natul nwe tok!”
56Mary stayed with Elizabeth for about three months and then returned home.
56Mary el muta yorol Elizabeth malem tolu, na el folokla nu yen sel.
57When the time came for Elizabeth to have her child, she gave birth to a son.
57Sun pacl lal Elizabeth in isusla, ac el oswela sie wen.
58Her neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had shown her great mercy, and they rejoiced with her.
58Mwet tulan lal ac sou lal lohngak lah Leum God El arulana akinsewowoyal, ac elos welul engan.
59On the eighth day, when they came to circumcise the child, they were going to name him after his father Zechariah.
59Ke tulik sac el sun len oalkosr matwal, elos tuku in tuh kosreyukla el, ac elos akoo in sang inel Zechariah, in folokin inen papa tumal ah.
60But his mother replied, “No! He shall be called John.”
60Tusruktu nina kial ah fahk mu, “Mo! Inel pa John.”
61They said to her, “There is no one among your relatives who bears this name.”
61Ac elos fahk nu sel, “Wangin sou lom ma us ine sacn!”
62So they made signs to his father to find out what he wanted to name the child.
62Na elos kaskas srisrsrisr nu sin papa tumal ac siyuk sel lah ac su inen tulik sac.
63Zechariah asked for a tablet and wrote, “His name is John.” And they were all amazed.
63Zechariah el siyuk sie ma elan sim kac, ac el simusla mu, “Inel pa John.” Elos nukewa arulana lut.
64Immediately Zechariah’s mouth was opened and his tongue was released, and he began to speak, praising God.
64In pacl sacna Zechariah el sifilpa ku in kaskas, ac el mutawauk in kaksakin God.
65All their neighbors were filled with awe, and people throughout the hill country of Judea were talking about these events.
65Mwet tulan lalos nukewa arulana sangeng, ac pungen ma inge fahsrelik nu infulan eol nukewa in acn Judea.
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.
66Mwet nukewa su lohng ke ma inge elos nunku kac ac siyuk, “Tulik se inge fin kapak el ac mau mwet fuka se?” Mweyen kalem na lah ku lun God oan facl.
67Then his father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied:
67Zechariah, papa tumal John, el sessesla ke Ngun Mutal, ac el fahkak kas inge sin God me:
68“Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, because He has visited and redeemed His people.
68“Lela kut in kaksakin Leum God lun Israel! El tuku tari in kasru mwet lal ac aksukosokyalosla.
69He has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of His servant David,
69El ase nu sesr sie Mwet Lango kulana, Sie sin fwilin tulik natul David, mwet kulansap lal.
70as He spoke through His holy prophets, those of ages past,
70El nuna wulela sin mwet palu mutal lal oemeet mu
71salvation from our enemies and from the hand of all who hate us,
71El ac molikutla liki mwet lokoalok lasr, Liki ku lalos nukewa su kwase kut.
72to show mercy to our fathers and to remember His holy covenant,
72El tuh fahk mu El ac akkalemye pakoten lal nu sin mwet matu lasr somla, Ac esam pac wulela mutal lal.
73the oath He swore to our father Abraham, to grant us
73Ke sie wulela oa su El orala nu sel Abraham, papa matu tumasr, El wuleang in
74deliverance from hostile hands, that we may serve Him without fear,
74Tulekutla liki inpoun mwet lokoalok lasr, Tuh kut in kulansupwal ac tia sangeng,
75in holiness and righteousness before Him all the days of our lives.
75Ac tuh kut in mutal ac suwoswos ye mutal Ke lusenna moul lasr.
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,
76“Wen nutik, ac fah pangpang kom mwet palu lun God Fulatlana. Kom ac fah fahsr meet liki Leum In akoela inkanek lal,
77to give to His people the knowledge of salvation through the forgiveness of their sins,
77In fahkak nu sin mwet lal lah elos ac fah moliyukla Mweyen El ac nunak munas nu selos ke ma koluk lalos.
78because of the tender mercy of our God, by which the Dawn will visit us from on high,
78God lasr El pakoten ac mongfisrasr. El ac fah oru tuh kalmen molela lal in takak ac srekuti,
79to shine on those who live in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace.”
79Ac in tololosyak nukewa su muta in lohsr ac ngunin misa, In kol niasr nu ke inkanek lun misla.”
80And the child grew and became strong in spirit; and he lived in the wilderness until the time of his public appearance to Israel.
80Tulik sac kapak ac kui in manol ac in ngunal. El muta yen mwesis nwe ke pacl se el sikyang nu sin mwet Israel.
