< Luke 5 >

1 One day while many people were crowding around him to hear the message from God, Jesus was standing on the shore of Gennesaret Lake, [which is also called Lake Galilee].
Evel ma oa Jezuz war aod lenn Genezared, ar bobl en em daole warnañ evit klevout ger Doue.
2 He saw two [fishing] boats at the edge of the lake. The fishermen had gone out of the boats and were washing their [fishing] nets [on the shore]. One of the boats belonged to Simon.
Gwelout a reas div vag en tu all d'ar mor; ar besketaerien a oa diskennet hag a walc'he o rouedoù.
3 Jesus got in that boat and asked Simon to push the boat a little bit away from the shore [so that he could speak to the crowd more easily. Jesus] sat in the boat and taught the people [who were on the shore].
Pignat a reas en unan eus ar bagoù-se, hini a oa da Simon, hag e pedas anezhañ da bellaat un tamm diouzh an douar; o vezañ azezet, e kelenne ar bobl diwar ar vag.
4 After he finished speaking [to them], he said to Simon, “Push the boat out to where the water is deep. Then let your nets down [into the water] to catch [some fish]!”
P'en devoe paouezet da gomz, e lavaras da Simon: Kae a-raokoc'h en dour don, ha taolit ho rouedoù evit pesketa.
5 Simon replied, “Master, we [(exc)] worked hard all night but we did not catch any [fish]. But because you [(sg)] tell me to do it, I will let down the nets.”
Simon a respontas dezhañ: Mestr, ni hon eus labouret e-pad an noz hep tapout netra; koulskoude, war da c'her, e taolin ar roued.
6 When Peter [and the men with him] had done that, they caught so many fish that their nets were breaking.
O vezañ en graet, e tapjont un niver bras a besked; evel ma torre o rouedoù,
7 They motioned to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. So they came and filled both the boats [with fish from the net]. The result was that the boats were so full that they began to sink.
e rejont sin d'o c'henvreudeur hag a oa er vag all, da zont d'o sikour. Dont a rejont hag e leugnjont an div vag, en hevelep doare ma'z aent d'ar foñs.
8 Simon and all the men who were with him were amazed at how many fish they had taken. James and John, the two sons of Zebedee, who were Simon’s partners, were among those who were amazed. When Simon, [whose other name was] Peter, saw [the fish, feeling ashamed to be in the presence of someone who obviously had God’s power], he prostrated himself before Jesus and said, “Lord, you should go away from me, because I am a sinful man!”
Simon Pêr, o vezañ gwelet kement-se, en em strinkas d'an daoulin ouzh treid Jezuz, hag a lavaras: Aotrou, pella diouzhin, rak ur pec'her on.
9
Rak ar spont a oa kroget ennañ hag en holl re a oa gantañ, abalamour d'ar pesketaerezh o devoa graet,
10 But Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid! [Up until now you(sg) have been gathering fish] [MET], but from now on you will gather people [to become my disciples].”
kenkoulz evel e Jakez ha Yann, mibien Zebedea, kenvreudeur da Simon. Neuze Jezuz a lavaras da Simon: Na'z pez ket aon, a-vremañ e vi pesketaer tud.
11 So after they brought the boats to the shore, they left their business [HYP] [in the hands of others] and went with Jesus.
Hag o vezañ degaset o bagoù d'an douar, e kuitajont pep tra, hag e heuilhjont anezhañ.
12 While [Jesus] was in one of the cities [there in the district of Galilee], there was a man there who was very severely affected by leprosy. When he saw Jesus, he prostrated himself before him and, [wanting Jesus to heal him], pleaded with him, “Lord/Sir, [please heal me, because] you are able to heal me if you are willing to!”
Evel ma oa en ur gêr eus Galilea, un den goloet a lovrentez, o vezañ gwelet Jezuz, en em strinkas war e c'henou ouzh an douar, hag en pedas, o lavarout: Aotrou, mar fell dit, e c'hellez va glanaat.
13 [Then Jesus, disregarding the religious law that forbade people to come close to lepers], reached out his hand and touched the man. He said, “I am willing [to heal you]; and I heal you now!” Immediately the man [was healed]. He was no longer a leper [PRS]!
Jezuz, oc'h astenn e zorn, en stokas hag a lavaras dezhañ: Fellout a ra din, bez glanaet. Ha kerkent al lovrentez a guitaas anezhañ.
14 Then Jesus told him, “Make sure that you do not report [your healing immediately. First, go to a priest in Jerusalem] and show yourself to him [so that he can examine you and verify that you no longer have leprosy]. After the priest tells [the local people], they will know that [you have been healed, and you will be able to associate with them again]. Also take to the priest [the offering] that Moses commanded [that people who have been healed from leprosy should offer].”
Jezuz a zifennas outañ n'en lavarje da zen. Met kae, a lavaras dezhañ, en em ziskouez d'ar beleg ha kinnig evit da c'hlanidigezh ar pezh en deus Moizez gourc'hemennet, evit ma servijo kement-se da desteni dezho.
15 But many people heard the man’s report of what [Jesus had done]. The result was that large crowds came to Jesus to hear his [message] and to be healed of their sicknesses {so that he would heal their sicknesses}.
Ar vrud anezhañ en em skuilhe muioc'h-mui, ha kalz a dud en em zastume evit e glevout hag evit bezañ yac'haet gantañ eus o c'hleñvedoù.
16 But he often would go away from them to the desolate area and pray.
Met eñ en em zalc'he a-du el lec'hioù distro, evit pediñ.
17 One day when [Jesus] was teaching, some men from the Pharisee [sect] were sitting there. Some of them were men who taught the [Jewish] laws. They had come from many [HYP] villages in Galilee [district] and also from Jerusalem and from [other] villages in Judea [district]. [At that time while] God was giving Jesus power to heal people,
Un devezh ma kelenne, ha ma oa azezet eno farizianed ha doktored al lezenn deuet eus holl vourc'hioù Galilea, eus Judea hag eus Jeruzalem, galloud an Aotrou a oberie evit yac'haat ar re glañv.
18 several men brought on a sleeping pad a man who was paralyzed. They wanted to bring him into [the house] and lay him in front of Jesus.
Neuze e teuas tud a zouge war ur gwele un den seizet, hag e klaskent mont en ti hag e lakaat dirak Jezuz.
19 But there was no way to do that because of the large crowd of people, so they went up [the steps] onto the roof. They tied ropes onto the sleeping pad and, after [removing some of] the tiles on the roof, they lowered the man [on] the sleeping pad. They lowered him through the opening into the midst of the crowd in front of Jesus.
Pa ne ouient dre belec'h e gas e-barzh, abalamour d'ar bobl, e pignjont war an ti, hag en diskennjont dre an teol gant e wele, e-kreiz ar bobl, dirak Jezuz;
20 When Jesus perceived that they believed that [he could heal the man], he said to him, “My friend, [I] forgive your sins!”
Eñ, o welout o feiz, a lavaras dezhañ: O den, da bec'hedoù a zo pardonet dit.
21 The men who taught the [Jewish] laws and the rest of the Pharisees began to think within themselves, “Who does this man [think he is, saying] that? He is insulting God! (Nobody can forgive sins!/What person can forgive sins?) [RHQ] Only God can do that!”
Neuze ar skribed hag ar farizianed en em lakaas da c'hrozmolat ha da lavarout: Piv eo hemañ hag a wallgomz? Piv a c'hell pardoniñ ar pec'hedoù, nemet Doue hepken?
22 Jesus perceived what they were thinking. So he said to them, “(You should not think that way [about what I said]!/Why do you question within yourselves [about what I said]?) [RHQ] [Consider this]:
Met Jezuz, oc'h anavezout o soñjezonoù, a gemeras ar gomz hag a lavaras dezho: Petra a c'hrozmolit en ho kalonoù?
23 It would [not] be risky [for someone] to say [to this man], ‘[I] forgive your sins,’ [because no one could see whether or not his sins were really forgiven. But no one] [RHQ], [without having the power to heal], would say to [him], ‘Get up and walk!’ [because people could easily see whether he was healed or not].
Petra eo an aesoc'h, lavarout: Da bec'hedoù a zo pardonet dit, pe lavarout: Sav ha bale?
24 But [as a result of my healing this man] you [(pl)] will know that [God] has authorized [me], the one who came from heaven, to forgive the sins [of people while I am on] the earth, [as well as to heal people].” Then he said to the man who was paralyzed, “To you I say, ‘Get up, pick up your sleeping pad, and go home!’”
Met, evit ma ouiot penaos Mab an den en deus war an douar ar galloud da bardoniñ ar pec'hedoù, -e lavaras d'an den seizet-: Me en lavar dit, sav, doug da wele, ha kae da'z ti.
25 Immediately the man [was healed]. He stood up in front of them. He picked up the [sleeping pad] on which he had been lying, and went home, praising God.
Ha raktal e savas dirazo, e tougas ar gwele ma oa gourvezet warnañ, hag ez eas d'e di, o reiñ gloar da Zoue.
26 All the people [there] were amazed! They praised God and were completely awestruck. They kept saying, “We [(inc)] have seen wonderful things today!”
Hag e voent holl souezhet bras, hag e roent gloar da Zoue; leuniet e voent a zoujañs hag e lavarent: Ni hon eus gwelet hiziv traoù burzhudus.
27 Then [Jesus] left [the town] and saw a man who collected taxes [for the Roman government]. His name was Levi. He was sitting in the booth where he collected the taxes. Jesus said to him, “Come with me [and become my disciple]!”
Goude-se, e teuas hag e welas ur publikan anvet Levi, azezet e ti ar gwirioù, hag e lavaras dezhañ: Deus war va lerc'h.
28 So Levi left his work [HYP] and went with Jesus.
Eñ, o kuitaat pep tra, a savas hag a heulias anezhañ.
29 Afterwards, Levi prepared a big feast in his own house [for Jesus and his disciples]. There was a large group of tax collectors and others eating together with them.
Levi a reas ur fest vras en e di, hag un niver bras a bublikaned hag a dud all a oa ouzh taol ganto.
30 The men who were there who taught the [Jewish] laws, ones who belonged to the Pharisee [sect], complained to Jesus’ disciples, saying, “([It is disgusting that] you are eating with tax collectors and [others who we(exc) consider to be] sinners!/Why are you eating with tax collectors [and others who we(exc) consider to be] sinners?)” [RHQ]
Ar re anezho a oa skribed ha farizianed a c'hrozmole hag a lavare d'e ziskibien: Perak e tebrit hag ec'h evit gant ar bublikaned ha gant an dud a vuhez fall?
31 Then, [to indicate that it was those who knew that they had sinned who were coming to him for help], Jesus said to them, “[It is] people who are sick who need a doctor, not those who are well [MET].
Jezuz, o kemer ar gomz, a lavaras dezho: N'eo ket ar re a zo yac'h eo ar re o deus ezhomm a vedisin, met ar re a zo klañv.
32 [Similarly], I did not come [from heaven] to invite [those who think they are] righteous [to come to me]. On the contrary, [I came to invite those who know that they are] sinners to turn from their sinful behavior [and come to me].”
N'on ket deuet da c'hervel d'ar geuzidigezh ar re reizh, met ar bec'herien.
33 [Those Jewish leaders] said to Jesus, “The disciples of John [the Baptizer] often abstain from food [to show that they want to please God], and the disciples of the Pharisees do that, too. But your disciples keep on eating and drinking! [Why do not they fast like the others]?”
Lavarout a rejont ivez dezhañ: Perak e yun alies diskibien Yann hag e reont pedennoù, kenkoulz evel re ar farizianed, e-lec'h da re-te a zebr hag a ev?
34 [To show them that it was not appropriate for his disciples to be sad and abstain from food while he was still with them] [MET], Jesus said to them, “When (the bridegroom/man who is getting married) is with [his friends at the time of the wedding], you certainly do not make his friends abstain from food, do you [RHQ]? [No, you do not do that].
Eñ a lavaras dezho: Ha c'hwi a c'hell lakaat da yunañ mignoned ar pried, e-pad ma'z emañ ar pried ganto?
35 [But] some day he will be taken away {[his enemies] will take him away} from them. Then, at that time, his friends will abstain from food, [because they will be sad].”
Met deizioù a zeuio ma vo lamet ar pried diganto; neuze e yunint, en deizioù-se.
36 Then Jesus told them two parables [to show them that those who desire to live according to God’s new message should not be forced to obey the old religious traditions like] ([fasting/abstaining from food]), [and that those who know only the old traditions are not eager to accept new ones] [MET]. He said, “People never tear a piece of cloth from a new garment and attach it to an old garment [to mend it]. If they did that, not only would they be ruining the new garment by tearing it, but the new piece of cloth would not match the old garment.
Lavarout a reas ivez dezho ur barabolenn: Den ne laka un tamm eus ur gwiskamant nevez war ur gwiskamant kozh, rak e freuzfe an hini nevez, hag an tamm kemeret eus an hini nevez n'en em rafe ket gant an hini kozh.
37 Neither does anyone put freshly-[squeezed] grape juice into old skin bags [to store it]. If anyone did that, the grape juice would burst the skin bags [because they would not stretch when the] new [wine ferments and expands. Then] the skin bags would be ruined, and [the wine] would [also] be spilled.
Den ne laka gwin nevez e seier-lêr kozh, rak ar gwin nevez a dorrfe ar seier kozh hag en em skuilhfe, hag ar seier a vefe kollet.
38 On the contrary, new wine must be put into new wineskins.
Met ar gwin nevez a zle bezañ lakaet e seier nevez, [hag an daou en em vir a-unan].
39 Furthermore, those who have drunk [only] old wine [are content with that]. They do not want to drink the new wine, because they say, ‘The old wine is [MET] fine!’”
Ha n'eus den a ev gwin kozh hag a c'houlenn gwin nevez, rak lavarout a ra: Gwell eo an hini kozh.
