Luke 2
1 And it came to pass in those days, there went forth a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world be registered—
En amzer-se e voe embannet ul lezenn a-berzh Kezar-Aogust, evit ma vije graet ar gont eus tud ar bed holl.
2 this census first came to pass when Quirinius was governor of Syria—
Ar gont kentañ-se a voe graet e-pad ma oa Kiriniuz gouarner Siria.
3 and all were going to be registered, each to his proper city,
Dre-se an holl a yae evit lakaat o anv, pep hini en e gêr.
4 and Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David, that is called Beth-Lehem, because of his being of the house and family of David,
Jozef ivez a bignas eus Galilea da Judea, eus kêr Nazared da gêr David anvet Betlehem, dre ma oa eus tiegezh hag eus familh David,
5 to register himself with Mary his betrothed wife, being with Child.
evit reiñ e anv gant Mari e wreg, hag a oa dougerez.
6 And it came to pass, in their being there, the days were fulfilled for her bringing forth,
E-pad ma oant eno, an amzer ma tlee gwilioudiñ a erruas,
7 and she brought forth her Son—the firstborn, and wrapped Him up, and laid Him down in the manger, because there was not a place for them in the guest-chamber.
hag e c'hanas he mab kentañ-ganet, hag e mailhuras anezhañ, hag e lakaas anezhañ en ur c'hraou, abalamour ne oa ket plas evito en ostaleri.
8 And there were shepherds in the same region, lodging in the field and keeping the night-watches over their flock,
Bez' e oa er memes korn-bro mêsaerien a gouske er parkeier, hag a ziwalle o loened e-pad beilhadennoù an noz.
9 and behold, a messenger of the LORD stood over them, and the glory of the LORD shone around them, and they feared [with] a great fear.
Setu un ael eus an Aotrou en em ziskouezas dezho ha gloar an Aotrou a lugernas en-dro dezho, hag o devoe ur spont bras.
10 And the messenger said to them, “Do not fear, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be to all the people,
Neuze an ael a lavaras dezho: N'ho pet ket aon, rak setu e tegasan deoc'h ur c'heloù mat, a vo un abeg a levenez vras evit an holl bobl,
11 because today in the city of David a Savior was born to you, who is Christ the LORD!
rak ganet eo hiziv deoc'h, e kêr David, ur Salver, hag a zo ar C'hrist, an Aotrou.
12 And this [is] the sign to you: you will find a Baby wrapped up, lying in the manger.”
Setu amañ ur sin deoc'h: c'hwi a gavo ur bugel bihan mailhuret ha gourvezet en ur c'hraou.
13 And suddenly there came with the messenger a multitude of the heavenly host, praising God, and saying,
Ha kerkent e voe gant an ael ul lod bras eus arme an neñv, o veuliñ hag o lavarout:
14 “Glory in the highest to God, and on earth peace, among men—good will!”
Gloar da Zoue el lec'hioù uhel-meurbet, ha peoc'h war an douar e-touez an dud karet gantañ!
15 And it came to pass, when the messengers were gone away from them to the heavens, that the men, the shepherds, said to one another, “We may indeed go over to Beth-Lehem and see this thing that has come to pass, that the LORD made known to us!”
Pa voe en em dennet an aeled diganto en neñv, ar vêsaerien a lavaras an eil d'egile: Deomp eta betek Betlehem, ha gwelomp ar pezh a zo c'hoarvezet, hag en deus an Aotrou roet da anavezout deomp.
16 And they came, having hurried, and found both Mary, and Joseph, and the Baby lying in the manger,
Mont a rejont eta buan di, hag e kavjont Mari, Jozef hag ar bugel bihan a oa gourvezet er c'hraou.
17 and having seen, they made known abroad concerning the saying spoken to them concerning the Child.
O vezañ e welet, e tisklêrjont ar pezh a oa bet lavaret dezho diwar-benn ar bugel bihan-se.
18 And all who heard [it] wondered concerning the things spoken to them by the shepherds;
An holl re o c'hleve a oa souezhet bras eus ar pezh a oa bet lavaret dezho gant ar vêsaerien.
19 and Mary was preserving all these things, pondering [them] in her heart;
Mari a vire an holl draoù-se, o tistremen anezho en he c'halon.
20 and the shepherds turned back, glorifying and praising God for all those things they heard and saw, as it was spoken to them.
Hag ar vêsaerien a zistroas, en ur reiñ gloar ha meuleudi da Zoue, evit kement o devoa klevet ha gwelet, hervez ma oa bet lavaret dezho.
21 And when eight days were fulfilled to circumcise the Child, then was His Name called Jesus, having been so called by the messenger before His being conceived in the womb.
Pa voe deuet an eizhvet devezh evit amdroc'hañ ar bugel, e voe galvet JEZUZ, anv a oa bet roet dezhañ gant an ael, a-raok ma oa koñsevet e kof e vamm.
22 And when the days of their purification were fulfilled, according to the Law of Moses, they brought Him up to Jerusalem, to present to the LORD,
Ha pa voe deuet, hervez lezenn Moizez, an deizioù dezho da vezañ glanaet, e voe kaset ar bugel da Jeruzalem, evit e ginnig d'an Aotrou
23 as it has been written in the Law of the LORD: “Every male opening a womb will be called holy to the LORD,”
(hervez ma'z eo skrivet e lezenn an Aotrou: Pep paotr kentañ-ganet a vo gouestlet da Zoue),
24 and to give a sacrifice, according to that said in the Law of the LORD: “A pair of turtle-doves, or two young pigeons.”
hag evit kinnig en aberzh, hervez ar pezh a zo skrivet e lezenn an Aotrou, ur re durzhunelled, pe ziv goulmig.
25 And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name [is] Simeon, and this man is righteous and devout, looking for the comforting of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was on him,
Bez' e oa e Jeruzalem un den anvet Simeon; an den-se a oa reizh hag a zouje Doue; gortoz a rae frealz Israel, hag ar Spered-Santel a oa warnañ.
26 and it has been divinely told him by the Holy Spirit—not to see death before he may see the Christ of the LORD.
Disklêriet e voe dezhañ a-berzh Doue dre ar Spered-Santel, penaos ne varvje ket, a-raok m'en dije gwelet Krist an Aotrou.
27 And he came in the Spirit into the temple, and in the parents bringing in the child Jesus, for their doing according to the custom of the Law regarding Him,
Dont a reas en templ dre ar Spered, hag evel ma oa an tad hag ar vamm o tegas ar bugel bihan Jezuz, evit ober en e geñver hervez giz al lezenn,
28 then he took Him in his arms, and blessed God, and he said,
e kemeras anezhañ etre e zivrec'h, hag e veulas Doue, o lavarout:
29 “Now You send Your servant away, O LORD, according to Your word, in peace,
Aotrou, laosk bremañ da servijer da vont e peoc'h, hervez da c'her,
30 because my eyes saw Your salvation,
rak va daoulagad o deus gwelet da silvidigezh,
31 which You prepared before the face of all the peoples,
an hini ac'h eus graet dirak an holl bobloù,
32 a light to the uncovering of nations, and the glory of Your people Israel.”
ar sklêrijenn a dle sklaeriañ an holl dud, ha gloar da bobl Israel.
33 And Joseph and His mother were wondering at the things spoken concerning Him,
Ha Jozef hag e vamm a oa souezhet eus an traoù a lavared anezhañ.
34 and Simeon blessed them and said to His mother Mary, “Behold, this [One] is set for the falling and rising again of many in Israel, and for a sign spoken against—
Simeon o bennigas, hag a lavaras da Vari, e vamm: Setu, ar bugel-se a zo lakaet da vezañ kouezhadenn hag adsavidigezh evit kalz en Israel, ha da vezañ ur sin eus enebiezh,
35 (and also a sword will pass through your own soul)—that the reasonings of many hearts may be revealed.”
en hevelep doare ma vo soñjezonoù kalon kalz dizoloet; hag evidout-te, ur c'hleze a dreuzo da ene.
36 And there was Anna, a prophetess, daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher, she was much advanced in days, having lived with a husband seven years from her virginity,
Bez' e oa ivez eno Anna ar brofedez, merc'h Fanuel, eus meuriad Aser; oadet bras e oa, hag he devoa bevet gant he fried seizh vloaz, abaoe he gwerc'hded.
37 and she [is] a widow of about eighty-four years, who did not depart from the temple, serving with fasts and supplications, night and day,
Chomet e oa intañvez, oadet a bevar bloaz ha pevar ugent pe war-dro, n'ae ket er-maez eus an templ, o servijañ Doue noz-deiz er yunoù hag er pedennoù.
38 and she, at that hour, having come in, was confessing, likewise, to the LORD, and was speaking concerning Him to all those looking for redemption in Jerusalem.
O vezañ deuet d'an eur-mañ, e veule ivez an Aotrou, hag e komze diwar-benn Jezuz ouzh an holl dud eus Jeruzalem a c'hortoze an daspren.
39 And when they completed all things according to the Law of the LORD, they turned back to Galilee, to their city of Nazareth;
Goude m'o devoe graet pep tra hervez lezenn an Aotrou, e tistrojont e Galilea, da Nazared, o c'hêr.
40 and the Child grew and was strengthened in spirit, being filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was on Him.
Hag ar bugel a greske hag en em nerzhe [e spered], o vezañ leuniet a furnez; ha gras Doue a oa warnañ.
41 And His parents were going yearly to Jerusalem, at the Celebration of the Passover,
E dad hag e vamm a yae beb bloaz da Jeruzalem, da c'houel ar Pask.
42 and when He became twelve years old, they having gone up to Jerusalem according to the custom of the celebration,
P'en devoe Jezuz daouzek vloaz, e pignjont da Jeruzalem, hervez giz ar gouel.
43 and having finished the days, in their returning the child Jesus remained behind in Jerusalem, and Joseph and His mother did not know,
Pa voe deizioù ar gouel tremenet, evel ma tistroent ac'hane, ar bugel Jezuz a chomas e Jeruzalem; Jozef hag e vamm n'anavezjont ket-se.
44 and having supposed Him to be in the company, they went a day’s journey, and were seeking Him among the relatives and among the acquaintances,
Met, o soñjal e oa en o zouez, e valejont un devezh; neuze e klaskjont anezhañ e-touez o c'herent hag ar re eus o anaoudegezh;
45 and having not found Him, they turned back to Jerusalem seeking Him.
pa n'en kavent ket, e tistrojont da Jeruzalem d'e glask.
46 And it came to pass, after three days they found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both hearing them and questioning them,
Hag a-benn tri devezh e kavjont anezhañ en templ, azezet e-touez an doktored, o selaou anezho hag oc'h ober goulennoù outo.
47 and all those hearing Him were astonished at His understanding and answers.
Kement hini a gleve anezhañ a oa souezhet gant e furnez hag e respontoù.
48 And having seen Him, they were amazed, and His mother said to Him, “Child, why did You do this to us? Behold, Your father and I, sorrowing, were seeking You.”
Pa welas e dud anezhañ, e voent souezhet, hag e vamm a lavaras dezhañ: Va bugel, perak ec'h eus graet evel-se deomp? Setu, da dad ha me, en glac'har, a glaske ac'hanout.
49 And He said to them, “Why [is it] that you were seeking Me? Did you not know that it is necessary for Me to be in the things of My Father?”
Eñ a lavaras dezho: Perak em c'hlaskec'h? N'ouiec'h ket eo ret din bezañ dalc'het gant labourioù va Zad?
50 And they did not understand the saying that He spoke to them,
Met int ne gomprenjont ket ar pezh a lavare dezho.
51 and He went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and He was subject to them, and His mother was keeping all these sayings in her heart,
Mont a reas neuze ganto hag e teuas da Nazared, hag e touje dezho. E vamm a vire an holl draoù-se en he c'halon.
52 and Jesus was advancing in wisdom, and in stature, and in favor with God and men.
Jezuz a greske e furnez, e ment, hag e gras, dirak Doue ha dirak an dud.
