< Matthew 15 >

1 Then [some] Pharisees and men who taught the [Jewish] laws came from Jerusalem [to talk to] Jesus. They said,
Neuze skribed ha farizianed a zeuas eus Jeruzalem da gavout Jezuz, hag a lavaras dezhañ:
2 “(We think it is disgusting that your disciples disobey the traditions of our ancestors!/Why do your disciples disobey [what our ancestors wrote down and] our [elders taught us]?) [RHQ] They do not perform the proper ritual of washing their hands before they eat!”
Perak e torr da ziskibien hengoun a re gozh? Rak ne walc'hont ket o daouarn pa zebront o fredoù.
3 Jesus answered them, “(What is really disgusting is that you refuse to obey God’s commands [just] so that you can follow what your ancestors taught you!/Why do you refuse to obey what God commanded [people to do, just] so that you can follow your own traditions?) [RHQ]
Eñ a respontas dezho: Ha c'hwi, perak e torrit gourc'hemenn Doue gant ho hengoun?
4 God gave these [two] commands: ‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and ‘People who speak evil about their father or mother must be executed.’
Rak Doue en deus lavaret: Enor da dad ha da vamm, ha: Piv bennak a villigo e dad pe e vamm a vo lakaet d'ar marv;
5 But you tell people, ‘You can say to your father or mother, “What I was going to give to you [to help provide for you], [I have now promised] to give [to God].”’
met c'hwi a lavar: An hini a lavaro d'e dad pe d'e vamm: Ar pezh am bije gallet reiñ dit a zo ur prof da Zoue,
6 And if you do that, you think that you do not need to give anything to help your parents. In [that way], [by teaching people] your traditions, you disregard what God commanded.
n'eo ket dalc'het da enoriñ e dad pe e vamm. C'hwi a gas da netra ger Doue gant ho hengoun.
7 You only pretend to be good! Isaiah prophesied accurately about you [also when he quoted what God said about your ancestors. God said],
Pilpouzed, Izaia en deus profedet mat diwar ho penn, p'en deus lavaret:
8 ‘These people talk [as if they] honor me [MTY], but they do not think about honoring me at all [MET].
Ar bobl-mañ a enor ac'hanon gant he muzelloù, met o c'halonoù a zo gwall bell diouzhin.
9 It is useless for them to worship me, because they teach what people thought up [as if I myself had commanded it].’”
Met e ven eo ec'h enoront ac'hanon, pa zeskont kredennoù a zo gourc'hemennoù tud.
10 Then Jesus [again] summoned the crowd to come [nearer] to him. Then he said to them, “Listen to [what I am about to tell you], and [try to] understand it.
Neuze, o vezañ galvet ar bobl, e lavaras dezho: Selaouit, ha komprenit.
11 Nothing that a person puts into his mouth [to eat] causes [God to consider] that person to be unacceptable. Instead, it is [the words] that come out of people’s mouths [SYN] that cause [God to reject them].”
N'eo ket ar pezh a ya er genou a hudura an den, met ar pezh a zeu er-maez eus ar genou eo, a hudura an den.
12 Later we disciples went to Jesus and said, “Do you know that the Pharisees heard what you said, and as a result they felt offended [RHQ]?”
Neuze e ziskibien a dostaas outañ hag a lavaras dezhañ: Gouzout a rez penaos ar farizianed, o klevout ar pezh ac'h eus lavaret, o deus kavet tamall ennañ?
13 Then, [to teach us what God would do to the Pharisees], Jesus told [us this parable]: “My Father in heaven [will] get rid of all [those who teach things that are contrary to his truth, just like a farmer] gets rid of plants that he did not plant, by pulling them up along with their roots [MET].
Eñ a respontas: Pep plantenn n'eo ket bet plantet gant va Zad a zo en neñv, a vo diwriziennet.
14 Do not pay any attention to [the Pharisees]. They [do not help people who do not know God’s truth] to [understand it, just like] blind guides [do not help] blind [people to perceive where they should go] [MET]. If a blind person [tries to] lead [another] blind person, they will both fall into a big hole [MET]. [Similarly, both the Pharisees and their disciples will end up in hell].” (questioned)
Lezit int; tud dall int, o ren tud dall; mar ren un dall un dall all, e kouezhint o-daou er poull.
15 Peter said to Jesus, “Explain to us the parable [about what a person eats].”
Pêr, o kemer ar gomz, a lavaras dezhañ: Displeg deomp ar barabolenn-se.
16 He replied [to them], “(I am disappointed that even you, [who should understand what I teach], still do not understand!/Why is it that even you [who should understand what I teach], still do not understand?) [RHQ]
Ha Jezuz a lavaras: C'hwi ivez, bez' oc'h c'hoazh hep skiant?
17 (You ought to understand that all [food that people] eat enters their stomachs, and later the refuse passes out of their [bodies]./Cannot you understand that all [food that people] eat enters their stomachs and later the refuse passes out [of their bodies]?) [RHQ] [Because food does not alter what we think and desire, what we eat does not cause God to consider that we are unacceptable to him].
Ne gomprenit ket penaos kement a ya er genou, a ziskenn er c'hof, hag a vez taolet el lec'h distro?
18 [You should know that] what comes out of [people’s] mouths, [meaning everything that they say] [SYN], comes from their inner beings/hearts. Many of the [things that they say] cause [God to consider] them to be unacceptable [to him].
Met ar pezh a zeu er-maez eus ar genou, a zeu eus ar galon; ha se eo ar pezh a hudura an den.
19 It is people’s innermost beings that [cause them] to think things that are evil, to murder people, to [commit] adultery, to commit other sexual sins, to steal things, to testify falsely, and to speak evil about [others].
Rak eus ar galon e teu ar soñjoù fall, al lazherezhioù, an avoultriezhioù, ar gastaouerezhioù, al laeroñsioù, ar falstestenioù, an droukkomzoù.
20 It is these actions that cause [God to consider] people to be unacceptable [to him]. To eat with unwashed hands does not cause [God to consider] people unacceptable to him.”
Setu aze an traoù a hudura an den; met debriñ hep bezañ gwalc'het an daouarn, an dra-se ne hudura ket an den.
21 After Jesus [took us and] left [Galilee district], we went into the region [where the cities of] Tyre and Sidon [are located].
Jezuz, o vezañ aet ac'hano, en em dennas da gostezioù Tir ha Sidon.
22 A woman [from the group of people called] Canaanites who live in that region came [to the place where Jesus was staying]. She kept shouting [to him], “Lord, you are the descendant of [King] David, [you are the Messiah!] Have pity on me [and my daughter!] She is suffering very much because a demon controls her.”
Setu, ur wreg kananeat deuet eus ar vro-se, a grias, o lavarout: Az pez truez ouzhin, Aotrou, Mab David! Va merc'h a zo gwall-boaniet gant an diaoul.
23 But Jesus did not answer her at all. [We] disciples came to him, and [knowing that the woman was not a Jew], we said to him, “Tell her to leave, because she keeps [bothering us] by yelling behind us!”
Eñ ne respontas ket ur ger dezhi, hag e ziskibien a dostaas outañ, o lavarout: Kas anezhi kuit, rak krial a ra war hol lerc'h.
24 But Jesus said [to her], “I have been sent {[God] has sent me} to [help] only the Israelite people [at this time] [SYN]. [They are like] sheep that have gotten lost [MET] [because they do not know the way to heaven].”
Respont a reas hag e lavaras: N'on bet kaset nemet etrezek an deñved kollet eus ti Israel.
25 But she came [closer] to Jesus and knelt down in front of him [to worship him]. She pled, “Lord/Sir, help me!”
Met hi a zeuas, hag en em stouas dirazañ, o lavarout: Aotrou, sikour ac'hanon!
26 Then, [to suggest to her that he needed to help the Jews first and not the non-Jews, whom the Jews called dogs], he told her, “It is not good [for someone] to take food [that has been prepared for] the children and throw it to the [little] dogs.”
Respont a reas: N'eo ket mat kemer bara ar vugale, hag e deurel d'ar chas bihan.
27 [But to show that she believed that non-Jews could also receive help from God], the woman said [to Jesus], “Lord/Sir, what you [say is] correct, but even the [little] dogs eat the crumbs that fall to the floor [when] their masters [sit at] their tables [and eat]!”
Gwir eo Aotrou, emezi, met ar chas bihan a zebr ar bruzun a gouezh eus taol o mestroù.
28 Then Jesus said to her, “O woman, [because] you believe firmly [in me, I] will [heal your daughter] as you desire!” At that moment [the demon left] her daughter, [and she] became well.
Neuze Jezuz a lavaras dezhi: Gwreg, da feiz a zo bras. Ra vo graet dit evel ma c'hoantaez. Hag en eur-se memes, he merc'h a voe yac'haet.
29 After Jesus, [along with us disciples], departed from that area, we went [back] to Galilee Lake [and walked] along it. Then Jesus climbed the hill [near there] and sat down [to teach the people].
Jezuz, o vezañ aet ac'hano, a zeuas tost da vor Galilea. O vezañ pignet war ur menez, ec'h azezas eno.
30 Crowds kept coming to him for the next two days and brought lame, crippled, and blind people, those who were unable to talk, and many others [who had various sicknesses]. They laid them in front of Jesus [so that he would heal them] [SYN]. And he healed them.
Neuze ul lod bras a dud a dostaas outañ, ha ganto re gamm, re dall, re vut, re vac'hagnet, ha kalz a re glañv, hag e lakajont anezho ouzh e dreid; eñ o yac'haas,
31 The crowd saw [him heal] people who could not talk, crippled people, lame people, and blind people, and they were amazed. They said, “Praise God [who rules over us who live in] Israel!”
en hevelep doare ma voe souezhet an dud pa weljont ar re vut o komz, ar re gamm o kerzhout, ar re dall o welout, ar re vac'hagnet yac'haet; hag e roent gloar da Zoue Israel.
32 Then Jesus called us disciples to him and said [to us], “This crowd [of people] has been with me for three days and have nothing [left] to eat. I feel sorry for them. I do not want to send them away [while they are still] hungry, [because if I did that], they might faint on the way [home].”
Jezuz, o vezañ galvet e ziskibien, a lavaras: Truez am eus ouzh ar bobl-mañ; rak tri deiz a zo emaint em c'hichen, ha n'o deus netra da zebriñ. Ne fell ket din o c'has war yun, gant aon na vankfe o nerzh en hent.
33 We disciples said to him, “In this place where nobody lives, (we cannot possibly obtain enough food to feed such a large crowd!/how can we obtain a large enough amount of food to feed such a large crowd?) [RHQ]”
An diskibien a lavaras: Penaos e c'hellfemp kavout, el lec'h distro-mañ, bara a-walc'h da bredañ kement a dud.
34 Jesus asked us, “How many small loaves do you have?” We said to him, “[We have] seven small loaves and a few [cooked] fish.”
Jezuz a c'houlennas outo: Pet bara hoc'h eus? Hag int a lavaras: Seizh, hag un nebeut peskedigoù.
35 He told the people to sit on the ground.
Neuze e reas d'ar bobl azezañ war an douar;
36 Then he took the seven small loaves and the fish. After he thanked [God for them], he broke them [into pieces], and he kept giving [them] to us. Then we [kept distributing] them to the crowd.
hag o vezañ kemeret ar seizh bara hag ar pesked, ha trugarekaet, e torras anezho hag o roas d'e ziskibien, hag e ziskibien o roas d'ar bobl.
37 [Because Jesus made the food multiply miraculously], all [those people] ate and had [plenty to] satisfy [them]. There were 4,000 men [who ate], but no [one counted] the women and the children [who also ate]. Then we [disciples] collected the pieces of food that were left over, and we filled seven large baskets [with them].
Hag e tebrjont holl, hag o devoe a-walc'h, hag e tegasjont seizh panerad leun eus an tammoù a oa manet.
Ar re o devoa debret a oa war-dro pevar mil den, hep ar gwragez hag ar vugale.
39 After Jesus dismissed the crowd, he, [along with us], got in the boat, and we sailed [around the lake] to the region called Magadan.
Goude bezañ kaset kuit ar bobl, e pignas er vag, hag e teuas da vro Magadan.
