< Luke 18 >

1 He also taught them by a parable that they must always pray and never lose heart.
Jezuz a lavaras ivez dezho ar barabolenn-mañ, evit diskouez penaos eo ret pediñ bepred, hag hep skuizhañ.
2 "In a certain town," He said, "there was a judge who had no fear of God and no respect for man.
Bez' e oa en ur gêr ur barner na zouje ket Doue, ha n'en devoa respet ebet evit den.
3 And in the same town was a widow who repeatedly came and entreated him, saying, "'Give me justice and stop my oppressor.'
Bez' e oa ivez er gêr-se un intañvez a zeue d'e gavout, o lavarout: Gra din reizh diouzh va enebour.
4 "For a time he would not, but afterwards he said to himself, "'Though I have neither reverence for God nor respect for man,
E-pad pell amzer ne c'hoantaas ober netra. Koulskoude e lavaras ennañ e-unan: Petra bennak na zoujan ket Doue, ha na'm eus respet ebet evit den,
5 yet because she annoys me I will give her justice, to prevent her from constantly coming to pester me.'"
koulskoude, dre ma teu an intañvez-mañ da skuizhañ ac'hanon, e rin reizh dezhi, gant aon na gendalc'hfe da derriñ din va fenn.
6 And the Lord said, "Hear those words of the unjust judge.
Hag an Aotrou a lavaras: Selaouit ar pezh a lavar ar barner disleal-se.
7 And will not God avenge the wrongs of His own People who cry aloud to Him day and night, although He seems slow in taking action on their behalf?
Doue, ha ne raio ket reizh d'e re dibabet a gri dezhañ noz-deiz, hag e taleo en o c'heñver?
8 Yes, He will soon avenge their wrongs. Yet, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on earth?"
Me a lavar deoc'h, e raio reizh dezho prest. Met pa zeuio Mab an den, ha kavout a raio feiz war an douar?
9 And to some who relied on themselves as being righteous men, and looked down upon all others, He addressed this parable.
Lavarout a reas ivez ar barabolenn-mañ, diwar-benn tud a grede enno o-unan e oant tud reizh, hag a zisprize ar re all:
10 "Two men went up to the Temple to pray," He said; "one being a Pharisee and the other a tax-gatherer.
Daou zen a bignas d'an templ da bediñ; unan a oa farizian, hag egile a oa publikan.
11 The Pharisee, standing erect, prayed as follows by himself: "'O God, I thank Thee that I am not like other people--I am not a thief nor a cheat nor an adulterer, nor do I even resemble this tax-gatherer.
Ar farizian, oc'h en em zerc'hel en e sav, a bede evel-hen ennañ e-unan: O Doue, da drugarekaat a ran dre ma n'on ket evel an dud all, a zo laeron, direizh, avoultrerien, nag ivez evel ar publikan-se.
12 I fast twice a week. I pay the tithe on all my gains.'
Yunañ a ran div wech ar sizhun, reiñ a ran an deog eus kement am eus.
13 "But the tax-gatherer, standing far back, would not so much as lift his eyes to Heaven, but kept beating his breast and saying, "'O God, be reconciled to me, sinner that I am.'
Met ar publikan, oc'h en em zerc'hel pell, ne grede ket memes sevel e zaoulagad d'an neñv; met skeiñ a rae war boull e galon, o lavarout: O Doue, az pez truez ouzhin, ur pec'her on!
14 "I tell you that this man went home more thoroughly absolved from guilt than the other; for every one who uplifts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be uplifted."
Me a lavar deoc'h, hemañ a zistroas pardonet d'e di kentoc'h eget egile; rak piv bennak en em uhela, a vo izelaet, ha piv bennak en em izela, a vo uhelaet.
15 On one occasion people also brought with them their infants, for Him to touch them; but the disciples, noticing this, proceeded to find fault with them.
Degaset e voe dezhañ bugale vihan, evit ma stokje outo; met an diskibien, o welout kement-se, a c'hrozmole d'ar re o degase.
16 Jesus however called the infants to Him. "Let the little children come to me," He said; "do not hinder them; for it is to those who are childlike that the Kingdom of God belongs.
Jezuz, o c'hervel anezho d'e gavout, a lavaras: Lezit ar vugale vihan da zont da'm c'havout, ha na zifennit ket outo; rak rouantelezh Doue a zo d'ar re a zo heñvel outo.
17 I tell you in solemn truth that, whoever does not receive the Kingdom of God like a little child will certainly not enter it."
Me a lavar deoc'h e gwirionez, penaos piv bennak ne zegemero ket rouantelezh Doue evel ur bugel bihan, ne yelo ket e-barzh.
18 The question was put to Him by a Ruler: "Good Rabbi, what shall I do to inherit the Life of the Ages?" (aiōnios g166)
Unan eus ar pennoù a c'houlennas digantañ: Mestr mat, petra a dlean d'ober evit kaout ar vuhez peurbadus? (aiōnios g166)
19 "Why do you call me good?" replied Jesus; "there is no one good but One, namely God.
Jezuz a lavaras dezhañ: Perak em galvez mat? N'eus hini mat nemet Doue hepken.
20 You know the Commandments: 'Do not commit adultery;' 'Do not murder;' 'Do not steal;' 'Do not lie in giving evidence;' 'Honour thy father and thy mother.'"
Anavezout a rez ar gourc'hemennoù: Na ra ket avoultriezh; Na lazh ket; Na laer ket; Na lavar ket a falstesteni; Enor da dad ha da vamm.
21 "All of those," he replied, "I have kept from my youth."
Eñ a lavaras dezhañ: Miret em eus an holl draoù-se adalek va yaouankiz.
22 On receiving this answer Jesus said to him, "There is still one thing wanting in you. Sell everything you possess and give the money to the poor, and you shall have wealth in Heaven; and then come, follow me."
Jezuz, o klevout kement-se, a lavaras: Mankout a ra dit c'hoazh un dra: Gwerzh kement ac'h eus, en ro d'ar beorien, hag ez po un teñzor en neñv; goude-se deus hag heul ac'hanon.
23 But on hearing these words he was deeply sorrowful, for he was exceedingly rich.
Pa en devoe klevet kement-se, e teuas gwall-drist; rak pinvidik bras e oa.
24 Jesus saw his sorrow, and said, "With how hard a struggle do the possessors of riches ever enter the Kingdom of God!
Jezuz, o welout e oa deuet gwall-drist, a lavaras: Pegen diaes eo d'ar re o deus madoù mont e rouantelezh Doue!
25 Why, it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God."
Aesoc'h eo d'ur c'hañval tremen dre graoenn un nadoz eget d'un den pinvidik mont e-barzh rouantelezh Doue.
26 "Who then can be saved?" exclaimed the hearers.
Ar re en kleve a lavaras: Ha piv a c'hell bezañ salvet?
27 "Things impossible with man," He replied, "are possible with God."
Jezuz a lavaras dezho: Ar pezh a zo dibosupl d'an dud a zo posupl da Zoue.
28 Then Peter said, "See, we have given up our homes and have followed you."
Pêr a lavaras: Setu, ni hon eus dilezet pep tra, hag hon eus da heuliet.
29 "I solemnly tell you," replied Jesus, "that there is no one who has left house or wife, or brothers or parents or children, for the sake of God's Kingdom,
Eñ a lavaras dezho: Me a lavar deoc'h e gwirionez: N'eus den en defe kuitaet, ti, pe wreg, pe vreudeur, pe gerent, pe vugale, evit rouantelezh Doue,
30 who shall not certainly receive many times as much in this life, and in the age that is coming the Life of the Ages." (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
ha ne resevo kalz muioc'h er c'hantved-mañ, hag er c'hantved da zont, ar vuhez peurbadus. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
31 Then He drew the Twelve to Him and said, "See, we are going up to Jerusalem, and everything written in the Prophets which refers to the Son of Man will be fulfilled.
Jezuz a gemeras neuze a-du an daouzek, hag a lavaras dezho: Setu, e pignomp da Jeruzalem, hag an holl draoù a zo bet skrivet gant ar brofeded diwar-benn Mab an den, a ya da vezañ graet.
32 For He will be given up to the Gentiles, and be mocked, outraged and spit upon.
Rak lakaet e vo etre daouarn ar baganed, graet e vo goap anezhañ, dismegañset e vo, krañchet e vo outañ,
33 They will scourge Him and put Him to death, and on the third day He will rise to life again."
ha goude ma vo bet skourjezet, e vo lakaet d'ar marv, hag ec'h adsavo a varv d'an trede deiz.
34 Nothing of this did they understand. The words were a mystery to them, nor could they see what He meant.
Met ne gomprenent netra e kement-se; ar c'homzoù-se a oa kuzhet evito, ha ne ouient ket ar pezh a oa lavaret dezho.
35 As Jesus came near to Jericho, there was a blind man sitting by the way-side begging.
Evel ma tostae ouzh Jeriko, un den dall a oa azezet war gostez an hent, hag a c'houlenne an aluzen;
36 He heard a crowd of people going past, and inquired what it all meant.
o klevout ar bobl a dremene, e c'houlennas petra a oa kement-se.
37 "Jesus the Nazarene is passing by," they told him.
Lavaret e voe dezhañ e tremene Jezuz a Nazared.
38 Then, at the top of his voice, he cried out, "Jesus, son of David, take pity on me."
Neuze e krias: Jezuz, Mab David, az pez truez ouzhin!
39 Those in front reproved him and tried to silence him; but he continued shouting, louder than ever, "Son of David, take pity on me."
Ar re a yae a-raok a groze dezhañ evit ma tavje; met eñ a grie c'hoazh kreñvoc'h: Mab David, az pez truez ouzhin!
40 At length Jesus stopped and desired them to bring the man to Him; and when he had come close to Him He asked him,
Jezuz, o chom a-sav, a c'hourc'hemennas en degas d'e gavout; ha pa voe tostaet,
41 "What shall I do for you?" "Sir," he replied, "let me recover my sight."
e c'houlennas outañ: Petra a fell dit e rafen evidout? Eñ a respontas: Aotrou, ma'c'h adkavin ar gweled.
42 "Recover your sight," said Jesus: "your faith has cured you."
Ha Jezuz a lavaras dezhañ: Adkav ar gweled, da feiz he deus da yac'haet.
43 No sooner were the words spoken than the man regained his sight and followed Jesus, giving glory to God; and all the people, seeing it, gave praise to God.
Kerkent ec'h adkavas ar gweled, hag ec'h heulias Jezuz, o reiñ gloar da Zoue. An holl bobl, o welout kement-se, a veulas Doue.
