Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
1Ngopera jaura nganana wonti, ja jaura Godanto nganana wonti, ja jaura Goda nganana wonti.
2The same was in the beginning with God.
2Naupini ngopera Godanto nganana wonti.
3All things were made through him. Without him, nothing was made that has been made.
3Nunkangundru warupoto pantjina wonti, ja nunkangupini panini wata kulno pantjina wonti mina pantjina wonti.
4In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
4Nunkangu tepi nganana wonti, ja tepi kanaia praitji nganana wonti.
5The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn’t overcome it.
5Ja praitji mintjiai ngalpurani, ja ngalpurali nina wata patana wonti.
6There came a man sent from God, whose name was John.
6Kana kulno terkakana wonti, nina Godali jinpana wonti, tala nunkani Johannes.
7The same came as a witness, that he might testify about the light, that all might believe through him.
7Naupini wokarana wonti tinkaraia, ngangau nulu praitjandru tinkari ngankananto, pratjana nunkangundru morlalu ngundrananto.
8He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.
8Wata nau munta praitji nganana wonti, a‐ai, praitjandru nulu tinkari ngankananto.
9The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.
9Naupini praitji morlalu, Naupini kanani warupotuni mintjiai, mitani wokarananto.
10He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world didn’t recognize him.
10Naupini mitani nganana wonti, ja mita maru nunkangundru pantjina wonti, ja mita marujeli nina wata ngujamana wonti.
11He came to his own, and those who were his own didn’t receive him.
11Nau wokarana wonti nunkanani, ja tanali nunkanali nina wata patana wonti.
12But as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become God’s children, to those who believe in his name:
12Worderuntjali nina patana wonti, tanangu Nulu ngurula jinkina wonti Godaia kupa pantjinanto, tanali talani nunkanani morlalu ngundranani.
13who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
13Tanapini wata kumarali, bakana wata palku jertapaterinali, bakana wata materi jertapaterinali, a‐ai, Godandru dankana wonti.
14The Word became flesh and lived among us. We saw his glory, such glory as of the only born Son of the Father, full of grace and truth.
14Ja jaura palku pantjina wonti, ja ngaianangunto ngamana wonti, ja ngaiana pirnala nunkani najina wonti, Ngaperi Kunakulnuja pirnalani jeribaka murlali ja morlalu manamiri.
15John testified about him. He cried out, saying, “This was he of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me, for he was before me.’”
15Johannili nunkangundru tinkari ngankana wonti, ja nau maritjina wonti ja jatana wonti: „Naupini Nau nganai, nunkangundru ngani jatana wonti: Nau ngakangu ngadani wokarala nganai ngakangu ngopera wapana wonti; ngangau Nau morla ngopera nganana wonti ngakangu.“
16From his fullness we all received grace upon grace.
16Ja nunkani manamirindru ngaiana pratjanali manina wonti murla ja murla.
17For the law was given through Moses. Grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ.
17Ngangau jirijiribani jaura Nulia Mosili jinkina wonti; murla ja morlalu Jesu Christungundru pantjina wonti.
18No one has seen God at any time. The only born Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, has declared him.
18Wata kulnujeli Goda najina wonti; Ngatamura Kunakulnujeli, Nauja Ngaperaia ngalpani ngamai, Nulia ngaianangu kaukaubana wonti. (Ngantjani‐jaura G. D. 4. Adventi.)
19This is John’s testimony, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, “Who are you?”
19Ja naupini Johannini tinkari ngankani nganai, matja Juda kanali Jerusalemingundru Priesta ja Levita jinpanala, tanali nina jakalkananto: „Worana jidni nganai?“
20He declared, and didn’t deny, but he declared, “I am not the Christ.”
20Ja nulu morlalu kurana wonti ja wata jedina wonti; ja nulu morlalu kurana wonti: „Wata ngani Christus nganai.“
21They asked him, “What then? Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the prophet?” He answered, “No.”
21Ja tanali nina jakalkana wonti: „Worana jidni? Jidni Elias nganai?“ Nau jatana wonti: „Wata ngani nau.“ Jidni Propheta nganai? Ja nulu kalabana wonti: „Pani.“
22They said therefore to him, “Who are you? Give us an answer to take back to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?”
22Tana nunkangu jatana wonti: „Ja worana jidni nganai, ngaiani kalabani jaura tikalkananto tanangu, tanali ngaianina jinpana warai; mina jidni jatai jinkangundru?“
23He said, “I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Make straight the way of the Lord,’ as Isaiah the prophet said.”
23Nau jatana wonti: „Ngani karkanietjaia ngaiala pitarani nganai, Kaparaia palto talku ngankinganimai, worderu Propheta Jesaias jatana wonti.“
24The ones who had been sent were from the Pharisees.
24Ja tana jinpani Pharisaiandru nganana wonti.
25They asked him, “Why then do you baptize if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?”
25Ja tanali nina jekibana wonti ja nunkangu jatana wonti: „Minandru jundru multibai wata Christus ngananani ja wata Elias ja wata Propheta?“
26John answered them, “I baptize in water, but among you stands one whom you don’t know.
26Johannili kalabana wonti ja tanangu jatana wonti: „Ngato ngapali multibai, ja Nau jurangu terti terkai, nina jura wata ngujamai.
27He is the one who comes after me, who is preferred before me, whose sandal strap I’m not worthy to loosen.”
27Naupini Nau nganai, Nau ngakangu ngadani wokarala nganai, Nau ngakangu ngopera nganana, nunkangu ngani wata talku nganai tidnaputa jinka nunkani dukarala.“
28These things were done in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
28Jenia Bethabarani pantjina wonti, Jordan kaiarani jerankari, woderi Johannili multibana wonti.
29The next day, he saw Jesus coming to him, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
29Ditjini kulnuni Johannili najina wonti Jesus nunkangu wokaranani, ja jatana wonti: „Najiau Godaia tjipi kuparu, Nuluwa kana warupotuja madlentji mandrala wapaia!“
30This is he of whom I said, ‘After me comes a man who is preferred before me, for he was before me.’
30Naupini nganai, nunkangundru ngani jatana wonti: „Ngakangu ngadani kana kulno wokarala nganai, Nau ngakangu ngopera wapana wonti; ngangau Nau morla ngopera nganana wonti ngakangu.“
31I didn’t know him, but for this reason I came baptizing in water, that he would be revealed to Israel.”
31Ja ngato nina wata ngujamana wonti, a‐ai, windri ngangau Juda kanali nina ngujamananto, jendrania ngani wokarana wonti ngapali multibala.
32John testified, saying, “I have seen the Spirit descending like a dove out of heaven, and it remained on him.
32Ja Johannili tinkari ngankana wonti ja jatana wonti: „Ngato najina wonti Jaola pariwilpandru ngarinani mulapara jeribaka, ja Nauja nunkangu ngamana ngarina wonti.“
33I didn’t recognize him, but he who sent me to baptize in water said to me, ‘On whomever you will see the Spirit descending and remaining on him is he who baptizes in the Holy Spirit.’
33Ja ngato nina wata ngujamana wonti, a‐ai, windri Naupini, Nulia ngana jinpana wonti ngapali multibala, ngakangu jatana wonti: „Worangu jundru najila nganai Jaola ngarinani ja nunkangu ngamanani, Naupini nganai, Nau Jaolali kulikirieli multibai.“
34I have seen and have testified that this is the Son of God.”
34Ja ngato najina wonti ja tinkari ngankana wonti: Naupini Godaia Ngatamura nganai.
35Again, the next day, John was standing with two of his disciples,
35Tankubana ditjini Johannes nakaldra terkana wonti ja nunkani mili mandru.
36and he looked at Jesus as he walked, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God!”
36Ja nulu Jesu palkanani najina wonti ja jatana wonti: „Najiau Godaia Tjipi kuparu!“
37The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
37Ja mili mandrujeli nina matja ngarana jatanani, pudla Jesungu karipaterina wonti.
38Jesus turned and saw them following, and said to them, “What are you looking for?” They said to him, “Rabbi” (which is to say, being interpreted, Teacher), “where are you staying?”
38Jesus worakalina karitjina wonti ja najina wonti pudlana nunkangu karipaterinani, Nau pudlangu jatana wonti: „Mina judla wontiai?“ Pudla nunkangu jatana wonti: „Rabbi — jenia wondrai ngujangujara jinkinietja — woderi jidni ngamai?“
39He said to them, “Come and see.” They came and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day. It was about the tenth hour.
39Nau pudlangu jatana wonti: „Kaperalumai ja najialumai!“ Pudla wokarana wonti ja najina wonti, woderi Nau ngamanani; ja nunkangupini ditjini pudla nunkangunto ngamana wonti. Ja ditji kunarku nganana wonti.
40One of the two who heard John and followed him was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.
40Andreas, Simon Petruni ngatata, pudlangundru kulno nganana wonti, pudlali Johanningundru ngarana warai, ja nunkangu karipaterina warai.
41He first found his own brother, Simon, and said to him, “We have found the Messiah!” (which is, being interpreted, Christ).
41Nulupini ngopera Simon neji nunkani mankamankana wonti, ja nunkangu jatana wonti: „Ngali Messias mankamankana warai, jenia wondrai Christus.“
42He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon the son of Jonah. You shall be called Cephas” (which is by interpretation, Peter).
42Nulu nina Jesungu wapalkana wonti. Jesujeli nina matja najina, jatana wonti: „Jidni Simon nganai, Jonani ngatamura; jundru Kephas tala ngamalkala nganai;“ jenia wondrai „Marda.“
43On the next day, he was determined to go out into Galilee, and he found Philip. Jesus said to him, “Follow me.”
43Tankubana ditjini Jesujeli ngantjana wonti Galilaiaia palkala, ja Nulu Philippus mankamankana wonti ja nunkangu jatana wonti: „Ngakangu karipateriau!“
44Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
44Philippus Bethsaidandru nganana wonti, Andreani ja Petruni ngurandru.
45Philip found Nathanael, and said to him, “We have found him of whom Moses in the law and also the prophets, wrote: Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”
45Philippula Nathanaeli mankamankana wonti ja nunkangu jatana wonti: „Ninaia, nunkangundru Mosili jirijiribani jaurani ja Prophetali dakana wonti, ninapini ngaiani mankamankana warai, Jesu Josephani ngatamura Nazaretandru.“
46Nathanael said to him, “Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?” Philip said to him, “Come and see.”
46Ja Nathanael nunkangu jatana wonti: „Nazaretandru ngumula dunkananto?“ Philippus nunkangu jatana wonti: „Kaparau ja najiau!“
47Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said about him, “Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!”
47Jesujeli Nathanael nunkangu wokaranani najina wonti, ja nunkangundru jatana wonti: „Najianau Israel kana morlalu, nunkangu jedini pani nganai!“
48Nathanael said to him, “How do you know me?” Jesus answered him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”
48Nathanael nunkangu jatana wonti: „Woderindru jundru ngana ngujamai?“ Jesujeli nunkangu kalabana wonti ja jatana wonti: „Morla ngopera Philippulu jidna karkana warai, jidni tandra pitani ngananani, ngato jidna najina warai.“
49Nathanael answered him, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are King of Israel!”
49Nathanailali nunkangu kalabana wonti ja jatana wonti: „Rabbi, jidni Godaia Ngatamura nganai, jidni Israelani Kapara nganai!“
50Jesus answered him, “Because I told you, ‘I saw you underneath the fig tree,’ do you believe? You will see greater things than these!”
50Jesujeli nunkangu kalabana wonti ja jatana wonti: „Ngangau ngani jinkangu jatana warai, ngato jidnana najina warai tandra pitani, jundru morlalu ngundrai? Jundru morla pirnala najila nganai nunkangupini.
51He said to him, “Most certainly, I tell you all, hereafter you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”
51Ja Nau nunkangu jatana wonti: Morlalu, morlalu, ngani jurangu jatai: Kararindrn jura najila nganai pariwilpa piririnani, ja Godaia angela worana taranani ja ngarinani Godaia Ngatamurani.“
