Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
1Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a narration of the things that have been accomplished among us;
1Ngangau marapujeli wontjana wonti kaukaubani jaura dakala nunkangundru, mina ngaianangu terti pantjina wonti, ja ngaiani morlalu milkila,
2According as they have delivered them unto us, who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and ministers of the word:
2Jeruja worderu tanali ngaianangu kaukaubana wonti, tana ngoperandru milkieli najina wonti ja jaura jinkinietja pantjina wonti.
3It seemed good to me also, having diligently attained to all things from the beginning, to write to thee in order, most excellent Theophilus,
3Jeruja bakana ngato ngundrana warai, ngato ngoperandru pratjana jiglerali matja jakalkana warai, jenia jinkangu talku dakala, Theophilai ngantjalu.
4That thou mayest know the verity of those words in which thou hast been instructed.
4Ngangau jundru talku ngujamananto tananapini jaura, tanangu jundru ngujangujara matja manina.
5There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest named Zachary, of the course of Abia; and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name Elizabeth.
5Herodes Judaia mitaia kaparaia ditjini Priesta kulno nganana wonti, tala nunkani Zacharias, Abiaia mardundru, ja noa nunkani Aaroni ngatamura widlandru, tala nankani Elisabeth.
6And they were both just before God, walking in all the commandments and justifications of the Lord without blame.
6Pudla talku nganana wonti Godani, ja Kaparaia jirijiribani jaura pratjanani ja talkulani ngumu wodatarana ngamana wonti.
7And they had no son, for that Elizabeth was barren, and they both were well advanced in years.
7Pudlali wata kupa ngamalkana wonti, ngangau Elisabeth ngameri nganana wonti, ja pudla kilpawoldra marapuni wiringana wonti.
8And it came to pass, when he executed the priestly function in the order of his course before God,
8Ja jendranguta nulu Priestaia mangini ngamalkana wonti marduwittani nunkanani Godani.
9According to the custom of the priestly office, it was his lot to offer incense, going into the temple of the Lord.
9Ja Priestaia wondrani malkali nina patana wonti kuli ngumu tarala, nau Godaia Kaparaia pungani wirina wonti.
10And all the multitude of the people was praying without, at the hour of incense.
10Ja kana wolara palarani terkana wonti ngatjila kuli ngumuja ditjini.
11And there appeared to him an angel of the Lord, standing on the right side of the alter of incense.
11Ja Kaparaia angela kulno nunkangu wondraterina wonti, nau turutupu Altaraia ngunarani terkana wonti.
12And Zachary seeing him, was troubled, and fear fell upon him.
12Ja Zachariali nina najina, nau ngarrana wonti ja japali pantjina wonti.
13But the angel said to him: Fear not, Zachary, for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elizabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his 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.
14And thou shalt have joy and gladness, and many shall rejoice in his nativity.
14Ja jundru mankina ja murla ngamalkala nganai, ja marapu mankila nganai nunkani dankanandru,
15For he shall be great before the Lord; and shall drink no wine nor strong drink: and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, 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.
16And he shall convert many of the children of Israel to the Lord their God.
16Ja nulu Israelaia ngatamura marapu karitjimalkala nganai Kaparani Godani tananani.
17And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias; that he may turn the hearts of the fathers unto the children, and the incredulous to the wisdom of the just, to prepare unto the Lord a perfect people.
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.“
18And Zachary said to the angel: Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife is advanced in years.
18Ja Zacharias angelani jatana wonti: „Worderu ngato jenia ngujamananto? Ngangau ngani pinaru, ja noa ngakani nankani ditji marapuni wiringana warai.“
19And the angel answering, said to him: I am Gabriel, who stand before God: and am sent to speak to thee, and to bring thee these good tidings.
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 behold, thou shalt be dumb, and shalt not be able to speak until the day wherein these things shall come to pass, because thou hast not believed my words, which shall be fulfilled in their 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.“
21And the people were waiting for Zachary; and they wondered that he tarried so long in the temple.
21Ja kana wolarali kalkana wonti Zachariangu, to tana ngaruparana wonti, ngangau nau juri ngamana wonti Godaia pungani.
22And when he came out, he could not speak to them: and they understood that he had seen a vision in the temple. And he made signs to them, and remained dumb.
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 it came to pass, after the days of his office were accomplished, he departed to his own house.
23Ja jendranguta ngankana ditji nunkani matja mudana, nau tikana wonti pungaia nunkanaia.
24And after those days, Elizabeth his wife conceived, and hid herself five months, saying:
24Tanangupini ditjini ngadani, Elisabeth noa nunkani mandrantjurina wonti; ja nani kurukuru ngamalkaterina wonti pira mara wora, ja jatana wonti:
25Thus hath the Lord dealt with me in the days wherein he hath had regard to take away my reproach among men.
25„Jeruja Kaparali tanangupini ditjini ngakangu ngankana paraia, tanangu Nulia ngana najina, ninta ngakani kanandru manila.“ (Ngantjani‐jaura Mariananka talpadakani ditjini.)
26And in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God into a city of Galilee, called Nazareth,
26Pirani mara wora ja kulnuni Godali angela Gabriel jinpana wonti ngura kulnuja Galilaiaia, tala nunkani Nazaret.
27To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, 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.
28And the angel being come in, said unto her: Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.
28Ja angela nankangu wirina wonti ja jatana wonti: „Murlali nganamai murlamaninietjajai; Kapara jinkangunto, jidni murlali pirna nganai widlani!“
29Who having heard, was troubled at his saying, and thought with herself what manner of salutation this should be.
29Nandru nina najina, nani ngaruparana wonti nunkani jaurandru, ja ngundraterina wonti, mina mandurini jaura jenia nganai.
30And the angel said to her: Fear not, Mary, for thou hast found grace with God.
30Ja angela nankangu jatana wonti: „Wata japali nganau Mariajai; ngangau jundru manjula mankamankana warai Godani.
31Behold thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and shalt bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name Jesus.
31Ja mai, jidni mandrantjurila nganai, ja kanku kulno dankala nganai, ja tala nunkani dikala nganai: «JESUS.»
32He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the most High; and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of David his father; and he shall reign in the house of Jacob for ever.
32Naupini pirna nganala nganai, ja tanali nina Kapara pirnaia Ngatamura dikala nganai, ja Goda Kaparali nunkangu jinkila nganai ngaperaia nunkanaia Davidani pirnalaia piri.
33And of his kingdom there shall be no end.
33Ja Nau Kapara nganala nganai Jakobani pungani ngurali, ja milila nunkani wata mudala nganai.“
34And Mary said to the angel: How shall this be done, because I know not man?
34Maria angelani jatana wonti: „Worderu jenia nganala nganai, ngangau ngato noa wata ngujamai?“
35And the angel answering, said to her: The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the most High shall overshadow thee. And therefore also the Holy which shall be born of thee shall 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.
36And behold thy cousin Elizabeth, she also hath conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her that is called barren:
36Ja mai, Elisabeth kamaneli jinkani bakana mandrantju nganai kankunto, ja naupini pira mara wora ja kulno nganai nankangu, nana tanali ngameri dikai.
37Because no word shall be impossible with God.
37Ngarla Godata wata ngandandarila nganai jaura pratjanani.“
38And Mary said: Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it done to me according to thy word. And the angel departed from 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)
39And Mary rising up in those days, went into the hill country with haste into a city of Juda.
39Maria terkakana wonti tanangupini ditjini, ja palkana wonti mardawonpaia ngura kulnuja Judaiaia.
40And she entered into the house of Zachary, and saluted Elizabeth.
40Ja Zachariani pungani wirina wonti ja Elisabethangu mandurini jaura jinkina wonti.
41And it came to pass, that when Elizabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the infant leaped in her womb. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost:
41Ja jendranguta Elisabethandru Mariani mandurini jaura ngarana wonti, kupa nankani mandrani kulkungana wonti; ja Elisabeth manamiri pantjina wonti Jaolali kulikirieli.
42And she cried out with a loud voice, and said: Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.
42Ja nani ngaiala pirnali maritjina wonti ja jatana wonti: „Murlali pirna jidni nganai widlani, ja murlali pirna jinkani mandraia tandra nganai!
43And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
43Ja wodajerindru jenia ngakangu, Kaparaia ngakanaia ngandri ngakangu wokarananto?
44For behold as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in my ears, the infant in my womb leaped for joy.
44Ngangau mai, matja mandurini jaura jinkani ngakangu talpani wirina, kupa mandrani ngakanani mankina kulkungana warai.
45And blessed art thou that hast believed, because those things shall be accomplished that were spoken to thee by the Lord.
45Ja murlali pirna nandru morlalu ngundrana paraia, ngangau morlalu jenia pantjila nganai, mina nankangu Kapara jatana paraia.“
46And Mary said: My soul doth magnify the Lord.
46Ja Maria jatana wonti: „Mungarali ngakanali Kapara jurakokala wapaia,
47And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
47Ja jaolali ngakanali Goda Kulkanipirnandru ngakanani mankila wapaia,
48Because he hath regarded the humility of his handmaid; for behold from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
48Ngangau Nulia najina wonti nunkani mili waka. Ngangau mai, kararindru ngana jurakokala nganai kana nguja warupotujeli.
49Because he that is mighty, hath done great things to me; and holy is his name.
49Ngangau ngakangu pirnala ngankana paraia Nauja ngurunguru, ja kulikiri tala nunkani nganai.
50And his mercy is from generation unto generations, to them that fear him.
50Ja kalumiltjamiltjarina nunkani ngujandru ngujani nganai tanangu, tana nunkangundru japali nganai.
51He hath shewed might in his arm: he hath scattered the proud in the conceit of their heart.
51Nulia ngurungurula ngankana wonti ngunarali nunkanali; Nulia piltjaru ngankana wonti tanana ngara ngundranani tananani pirna ngundrateriai;
52He hath put down the mighty from their seat, and hath exalted the humble.
52Nulia kapara worana worarana wonti pirnalaia pirindru ja wakawaka miri ngankana wonti.
53He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away.
53Tana maua nganana, Nulia potujeli manamiri ngankana wonti; ja tana poto pirnanto Nulia kala jinpana wonti.
54He hath received Israel his servant, being mindful of his mercy:
54Nulia Israeli milini nunkanani marangokana wonti kalumiltjamiltjarina nunkani ngundrala.
55As he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and to his seed for ever.
55Worderu Nauja jatana wonti ngaianani ngaperi worani, Abrahamangu ja ngatamurani nunkanani ngurali.“
56And Mary abode with her about three months; and she returned to her own house.
56Maria nankangu jela pira parkulu ngamana wonti, ja ngadani pungaia nankanaia tikana wonti. (Ngantjani‐jaura Johannes multibanietjaia ditjini.)
57Now Elizabeth’s full time of being delivered was come, and she brought forth a son.
57Elisabethananka ditji matja wokarana, nandru dankananto, ja nandru kupa ngatani dankana wonti.
58And her neighbours and kinsfolks heard that the Lord had shewed his great mercy towards her, and they congratulated with her.
58Ja jenimalinietjali ja kamanelieli nankanali ngarana wonti worderu Kapara kalumiltjamiltjarina nunkani nankangu pirna ngankala wiri; ja tana nankangunto mankina wonti.
59And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child, and they called him by his father’s name Zachary.
59Ja jendranguta ditji mara wora ja parkulani tana wokarana wonti nina kanku karuwali ngankala, ja tanali nina ngaperi nunkani jeri „Zacharias“ dikana wonti.
60And his mother answering, said: Not so; but he shall be called John.
60Ja ngandrieli nunkanali kalabana wonti ja jatana wonti: „A‐ai, Johannes tala nunkani nganala nganai.“
61And they said to her: There is none of thy kindred that is called by this name.
61Ja tana nankangu jatana wonti: „Wata kamaneli kulno jinkani nganai, nina tanali ninapini tala dikai.“
62And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called.
62Tanali ngaperi nunkani marali jekibana wonti, worderu nulu ngantjai ninaia dikala.
63And demanding a writing table, he wrote, saying: John is his name. And they all wondered.
63Ja nau ngatjina wonti marda pirrapirrani ja dakana wonti ja jatana wonti: „Johannes tala nunkani nganai.“ Ja tana pratjana ngaruparana wonti.
64And immediately his mouth was opened, and his tongue loosed, and he spoke, blessing God.
64Nurujeli mana nunkani piririna wonti, ja tali nunkani walturina wonti, ja nau jatana wonti ja Goda jurakokana wonti.
65And fear came upon all their neighbours; and all these things were noised abroad over all the hill country of Judea.
65Ja jenimalinietja pratjana japali pantjina wonti, ja Judaia mardawonpa worani tana ngankamalina wonti jenia jaura pratjanandru.
66And all they that had heard them laid them up in their heart, saying: What an one, think ye, shall this child be? For the hand of the Lord 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.
67And Zachary his father was filled with the Holy Ghost; and he prophesied, saying:
67Ja Zacharias, ngaperi nunkani, Jaolali kulikirieli manamiri pantjina wonti, ja nulu talpadakana wonti ja jatana wonti:
68Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; because he hath visited and wrought the redemption of his people:
68„Jurakokana nganaiatimai Kaparani, Israelaia Godani, ngangau Nulia najina wonti ja kulkana ngankingana wonti kana wolarani nunkanani,
69And hath raised up an horn of salvation to us, in the house of David his servant:
69Ja Nulia murlaia jurietjali ngaianangu jiritjibana wonti Davidani milini nunkanani pungani,
70As he spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets, who are from the beginning:
70Worderu Nauja jatana wonti nunkani Prophetaia kulikiria manali, tana ngopera nganana wonti.
71Salvation from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us:
71Nulia ngaianana kulkananto ngaianani talpalandru, ja mara pratjanandru tana ngaianangu kalakalariai,
72To perform mercy to our fathers, and to remember his holy testament,
72Kalumiltjamiltjarina ngankala ngaianani ngaperi worani, ja ngundrala nunkani Testamenta kulikiri;
73The oath, which he swore to Abraham our father, that he would grant to us,
73Jaura morlalu, nina Nulia talpadakana wonti Abrahamangu ngaperi ngaiananani, ngaianangu jinkila.
74That being delivered from the hand of our enemies, we may serve him without fear,
74Ngangau ngaiana japanguru, Nulia ngaiananana tulaia marani matja kulkana, mili nunkani nganananto.
75In holiness and justice before him, all our days.
75Kulikirilani ja talkulani nunkani mudlani ditjini warupotuni ngaiananani.
76And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways:
76Ja bakana jidna, kupajai, tanali Kapara pirnaia Propheta dikala nganai, ngangau jidni ngopera wapala nganai Kaparaia mudlani, palto nunkani ngankingala.
77To give knowledge of salvation to his people, unto the remission of their sins:
77Murlaia ngujamani jinkila kana wolarani nunkanani, madlentji tanani kalingala.
78Through the bowels of the mercy of our God, in which the Orient from on high hath visited us:
78Godaia ngaiananaia ngarali kalumiltjamiltjarinandru, nunkangundru ngaianangu mirindru praitji dunkana warai,
79To enlighten them that sit in darkness, and in the shadow of death: to direct our feet into the way of peace.
79Tanangu mintjila, tana ngalpurani ja naria pungalani ngamanani, ngaianani tidna murlaia paltuni wirilkala.“
80And the child grew, and was strengthened in spirit; and was in the deserts until the day of his manifestation to Israel.
80Kupa pirnarina wonti ja ngurungururina wonti Jaolali; ja nau pitarani nganana wonti nunkangupini ditjielu, nau Juda kanani wondraterina wonti.
