John 3
1 There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.
Bez' e oa un den, e-touez ar farizianed, anvet Nikodem, unan eus re vras ar Yuzevien.
2 This man came to Jesus by night, and said to him: Rabbi, we know that thou hast come as a teacher from God; for no man can do these signs which thou doest, unless God be with him.
Hemañ a zeuas, e-pad an noz, da gavout Jezuz hag a lavaras dezhañ: Mestr, ni a oar out un doktor deuet a-berzh Doue, rak den ne c'hell ober ar mirakloù-se a rez, nemet Doue a vefe gantañ.
3 Jesus answered and said to him: Verily, verily I say to you, unless a man be born again, he can not see the kingdom of God.
Jezuz a respontas dezhañ: E gwirionez, e gwirionez, me a lavar dit, ma ne vez ket ganet un den a-nevez, ne c'hell ket gwelout rouantelezh Doue.
4 Nicodemus said to him: How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter his mother’s womb the second time, and be born?
Nikodem a lavaras dezhañ: Penaos e c'hell un den bezañ ganet pa'z eo kozh? Hag eñ a c'hell distreiñ e kof e vamm, ha bezañ ganet un eil gwech?
5 Jesus answered: Verily, verily I say to you, unless a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he can not enter into the kingdom of God.
Jezuz a respontas: E gwirionez, e gwirionez, me a lavar dit, ma ne vez ket un den ganet a zour hag a Spered, ne c'hell ket mont e rouantelezh Doue.
6 That which is begotten of the flesh, is flesh; and that which is begotten of the Spirit, is spirit.
Ar pezh a zo ganet eus ar c'hig, a zo kig, hag ar pezh a zo ganet eus ar Spered, a zo spered.
7 Wonder not that I said to you, you must all be born again,
Na vez ket souezhet eus ar pezh am eus lavaret dit: Ret eo ma viot ganet a-nevez.
8 The Spirit breathes where he pleases, and you hear his voice, but you know not whence he comes, and whither he goes; so is every one that is begotten of the Spirit.
An avel a c'hwezh e-lec'h ma kar, hag e klevez an trouz; met n'ouzout ket nag a-belec'h e teu, na pelec'h ez a. Evel-se e c'hoarvez gant pep den a zo ganet eus ar Spered.
9 Nicodemus answered and said to him: How can these things be?
Nikodem a lavaras dezhañ: Penaos e c'hell an traoù-se en em ober?
10 Jesus answered and said to him: Are you the teacher of Israel, and do not understand these things?
Jezuz a respontas dezhañ: Te a zo doktor Israel, ha n'ouzout ket an traoù-se?
11 Verily, verily, I say to you, we speak that which we know, and testify to that which we have seen; and you receive not our testimony.
E gwirionez, e gwirionez, me a lavar dit: ni a lavar ar pezh a ouzomp, hag e roomp testeni eus ar pezh hon eus gwelet, met ne zegemerit ket hon testeni.
12 If I have told you of earthly things, and you believe not, how will you believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?
Ma ne gredit ket pa em eus komzet deoc'h eus traoù douarel, penaos e kredot pa gomzin deoc'h eus traoù neñvel?
13 And no man has ascended into heaven, but he who came down from heaven, the Son of man, who is in heaven.
Den n'eo pignet en neñv, nemet an hini a zo diskennet eus an neñv, Mab an den [a zo en neñv].
14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of man be lifted up;
Hag evel ma savas Moizez an naer el lec'h distro, evel-se eo ret e vo savet Mab an den,
evit [na vo ket kollet] piv bennak a gred ennañ, [met ma] en devo ar vuhez peurbadus. (aiōnios g166)
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes on him should not perish, but have eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Rak kement en deus Doue karet ar bed, m'en deus roet e Vab nemetañ, evit na vo ket kollet piv bennak a gred ennañ, met m'en devo ar vuhez peurbadus. (aiōnios g166)
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world, through him, might be saved.
Rak Doue n'en deus ket kaset e Vab er bed evit barn ar bed, met evit ma vo salvet ar bed drezañ.
18 He that believes on him is not condemned; but he that believes not is condemned already, because he has not believed on the name of the only begotten Son of God.
An hini a gred ennañ n'eo ket barnet, met an hini na gred ket a zo dija barnet, abalamour n'en deus ket kredet e anv Mab nemetañ Doue.
19 And this is the condemnation, that light has come into the world, and men have loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
Hag an dra kiriek d'ar varnedigezh eo penaos ar sklêrijenn a zo deuet er bed, ha penaos o deus an dud karet muioc'h an deñvalijenn eget ar sklêrijenn, abalamour ma oa fall o oberoù.
20 For every one that does evil, hates the light, and comes not to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed.
Rak piv bennak a ra an droug a gasa ar sklêrijenn, ha ne zeu ket d'ar sklêrijenn, gant aon na vefe rebechet e oberoù.
21 But he that does the truth, comes to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest that they are done in God.
Met an hini a ra hervez ar wirionez, a zeu d'ar sklêrijenn, evit ma vo disklêriet e oberoù, abalamour int graet e Doue.
22 After these things, Jesus and his disciples came into the land of Judea, and he remained there with them, and immersed.
Goude-se, Jezuz a yeas gant e ziskibien war douar Judea, hag eno e chomas ganto hag e vadeze.
23 And John also was immersing in Ænon, near Salim, because there was much water there. And they came and were immersed;
Yann a vadeze ivez e Enon, tost ouzh Salim, abalamour ma oa eno kalz a zour, hag ez aed di evit bezañ badezet,
24 for John had not yet been thrown into prison.
rak Yann ne oa ket bet c'hoazh lakaet er prizon.
25 There arose, therefore, a dispute between some of John’s disciples and a Jew, about purification.
Bez' e voe un tamall etre diskibien Yann hag ar Yuzevien, diwar-benn ar c'hlanidigezh.
26 And they came to John, and said to him: Rabbi, he who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you bore testimony, behold, he immerses, and all are going to him.
Dont a rejont da gavout Yann, hag e lavarjont dezhañ: Mestr, an hini a oa ganit d'an tu all d'ar Jordan, hag ac'h eus roet testeni dezhañ, setu, eñ a vadez, hag an holl a ya d'e gavout.
27 John answered and said: A man can receive nothing unless it be given to him from heaven.
Yann a respontas: Den ne c'hell ober netra, ma n'eo ket bet roet dezhañ eus an neñv.
28 You yourselves will testify for me, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him.
C'hwi hoc'h-unan a zo testoù din em eus lavaret: N'eo ket me eo ar C'hrist, met kaset on bet a-raok dezhañ.
29 He that has the bride, is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly on account of the voice of the bridegroom. This, my joy, is therefore complete.
An hini en deus ar wreg eo an ozhac'h; met mignon an ozhac'h a zo eno hag en selaou; leuniet eo a levenez o klevout mouezh an ozhac'h, hag al levenez-se a zo va hini; mat-tre eo.
30 He must increase, but I must decrease.
Ret eo dezhañ kreskiñ ha din bihanaat.
31 He that comes from above, is over all. He that is from the earth, is from the earth, and speaks from the earth. He that comes from heaven, is over all;
An hini a zeu eus an nec'h a zo dreist an holl; an hini a zeu eus an douar a zo eus an douar hag a gomz eus an douar; an hini a zeu eus an neñv a zo dreist an holl;
32 and what he has seen and heard, this he testifies; and no one receives his testimony.
reiñ a ra testeni eus ar pezh en deus gwelet ha klevet; met den ne zegemer e desteni.
33 He that has received his testimony has solemnly declared that God is true.
An hini a zegemer e desteni, en deus siellet penaos eo Doue gwirion.
34 For he whom God has sent, speaks the words of God; for God gives not the Spirit by measure to him.
Rak an hini en deus Doue kaset a lavar komzoù Doue, rak Doue ne ro ket dezhañ ar Spered dre vuzul.
35 The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into his hand.
An Tad a gar ar Mab hag en deus lakaet pep tra etre e zaouarn.
36 He that believes on the Son has eternal life. But he that believes not the Son, shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. (aiōnios g166)
An hini a gred er Mab en deus ar vuhez peurbadus, met an hini na sent ket ouzh ar Mab ne welo ket ar vuhez, met fulor Doue a chomo warnañ. (aiōnios g166)
