Jean 1
1 Er penn-kentañ e oa ar Ger, hag ar Ger a oa gant Doue, hag ar Ger a oa Doue.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 Er penn-kentañ e oa gant Doue.
This man was in the beginning with God.
3 An holl draoù a zo bet graet drezañ, ha netra eus ar pezh a zo bet graet, n'eo bet graet heptañ.
All things came to be through him, and apart from him not even one thing came to be that has come to be.
4 Ennañ e oa ar vuhez, hag ar vuhez a oa sklêrijenn an dud.
In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
5 Ar sklêrijenn he deus lugernet en deñvalijenn, hag an deñvalijenn n'he deus ket he degemeret.
And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.
6 Bez' e voe un den, anvet Yann, kaset a-berzh Doue.
A man came to be who was sent from God, his name was John.
7 Dont a reas da vezañ test, da reiñ testeni d'ar sklêrijenn, evit ma kredje an holl drezañ.
This man came for testimony so that he might testify about the light, so that all might believe through him.
8 Ne oa ket ar sklêrijenn, met kaset e oa da reiñ testeni d'ar sklêrijenn.
That man was not the light, but that he might testify about the light.
9 Ar sklêrijenn wirion, an hini a sklaera pep den, a oa o tont er bed.
He was the true light coming into the world that enlightens every man.
10 Er bed e oa, hag ar bed a zo bet graet gantañ; met ar bed n'en deus ket e anavezet.
He was in the world, and the world came to be through him, and the world knew him not.
11 Deuet eo da gavout e re, hag e re n'o eus ket e zegemeret.
He came to his own, and his own did not accept him.
12 Met d'an holl re o deus e zegemeret, en deus roet an droed da vezañ graet bugale da Zoue, da c'houzout eo, d'an holl re a gred en e anv,
But as many as did accept him, to them he gave power to become children of God, to those who believe in his name,
13 ar re n'int ket bet ganet eus ar gwad, nag eus bolontez ar c'hig, nag eus bolontez an den, met eus Doue.
who were begotten, not from blood, nor from a will of flesh, nor from a will of man, but from God.
14 Hag ar Ger a zo bet graet kig, hag en deus chomet en hon touez, leun a c'hras hag a wirionez, ha gwelet hon eus e c'hloar, ur gloar evel hini Mab nemetañ an Tad.
And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us. And we beheld his glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.
15 Yann a roas testeni dezhañ, pa grias o lavarout: Hemañ eo an hini a lavaren diwar e benn: An hini a zeu war va lerc'h a zo dreiston, abalamour ma oa kentoc'h egedon.
John testified about him, and cried out, saying, This was he of whom I said, He who comes after me came to be before me, because he was before me.
16 Ni holl hon eus resevet eus e leunder, ha gras evit gras.
And from his fullness we all received, even grace for grace.
17 Rak al lezenn a zo bet roet dre Voizez, an drugarez hag ar wirionez a zo deuet dre Jezuz-Krist.
Because the law was given through Moses. Grace and truth came to be through Jesus Christ.
18 Den n'en deus biskoazh gwelet Doue; ar Mab nemetañ a zo en askre an Tad, eo an hini en deus graet e anavezout.
No man has ever seen God. The only begotten Son, being in the bosom of the Father, that man reported him.
19 Setu amañ testeni Yann, pa gasas ar Yuzevien eus Jeruzalem beleien ha levited da c'houlenn outañ: Piv out-te?
And this is the testimony of John when the Jews sent forth priests and Levites from Jerusalem so that they might ask him, Who are thou?
20 Disklêriañ a reas ha ne nac'has ket, disklêriañ a reas: N'on ket-me ar C'hrist.
And he confessed, and did not deny, and confessed, I am not the Christ.
21 Hag e c'houlennjont outañ: Piv out eta? Bez' out Elia? Eñ a lavaras: N'on ket. Bez' out ar profed? Eñ a respontas: Nann.
And they asked him, What therefore, are thou Elijah? And he says, I am not. Are thou the prophet? And he answered, No.
22 Int a lavaras eta dezhañ: Piv out-te? Evit ma roimp respont d'ar re o deus hon degaset. Petra a lavarez ac'hanout da-unan?
They said therefore to him, Who are thou, so that we may give an answer to those who sent us? What do thou say about thyself?
23 Eñ a lavaras: Me eo mouezh an hini a gri el lec'h distro: Plaenit hent an Aotrou, evel m'en deus lavaret ar profed Izaia.
He said, I am the voice of a man crying out in the wilderness: Make straight the way of the Lord, just as the prophet Isaiah said.
24 Ar re a oa bet kaset a oa farizianed.
And those who were sent were from the Pharisees.
25 Goulenn a rejont outañ: Perak e vadezez, ma n'out nag ar C'hrist, nag Elia, nag ar profed?
And they asked him, and said to him, Why therefore do thou immerse if thou are not the Christ nor Elijah nor the prophet?
26 Yann a respontas hag a lavaras dezho: Evidon-me, me a vadez en dour; met unan bennak a zo en ho touez, ha n'anavezit ket anezhañ.
John answered them, saying, I immerse in water, but amidst you stands him whom ye know not.
27 Hennezh eo an hini a zeu war va lerc'h, [hag a zo dreiston]; ha n'on ket dellezek da zieren korreenn e votoù.
He is the man who comes after me, who has become before me, of whom I am not worthy that I might loosen the strap of his shoe.
28 Kement-mañ a c'hoarvezas e Betania, en tu all d'ar Jordan, e-lec'h ma vadeze Yann.
These things occurred in Bethany beyond the Jordan where John was immersing.
29 An deiz war-lerc'h, Yann a welas Jezuz o tont d'e gavout, hag a lavaras: Setu Oan Doue, an hini a lam pec'hed ar bed.
On the morrow John sees Jesus coming to him, and he says, Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!
30 Eñ eo an hini e lavaren diwar e benn: Dont a ra war va lerc'h un den hag a zo dreiston, rak a-raok din e oa.
This is he about whom I said, After me comes a man who has become before me, because he was before me.
31 Evidon-me, n'anavezen ket anezhañ; met deuet on da vadeziñ en dour, evit ma vo disklêriet da Israel.
And I had not known him, but that he would be made known to Israel. Because of this I came immersing in water.
32 Yann a roas c'hoazh an testeni-mañ, o lavarout: Gwelet em eus ar Spered o tiskenn eus an neñv evel ur goulm, hag o tont warnañ.
And John testified, saying, I have seen the Spirit descending like a dove out of heaven, and it remained upon him.
33 Evidon-me, n'anavezen ket anezhañ; met an hini en deus va c'haset da vadeziñ en dour, en deus lavaret din: An hini a weli ar Spered o tiskenn hag o chom warnañ, hennezh eo an hini a vadez er Spered-Santel.
And I had not known him. But he who sent me to immerse in water, he said to me, Upon whomever thou will see the Spirit descending and remaining on him, this is he who immerses in the Holy Spirit.
34 Hag em eus gwelet, hag em eus roet testeni eo eñ Mab Doue.
And I have seen and have testified that this is the Son of God.
35 An deiz war-lerc'h, Yann a oa c'hoazh eno gant daou eus e ziskibien,
Again on the morrow John stood, and two of his disciples.
36 hag o welout Jezuz a valee, e lavaras: Setu Oan Doue.
And having looked upon Jesus walking, he says, Behold, the Lamb of God!
37 An daou ziskibl, o vezañ e glevet o komz evel-se, a heulias Jezuz.
And the two disciples heard him speaking, and they followed Jesus.
38 Jezuz o vezañ distroet hag o welout e heulient anezhañ, a lavaras dezho: Petra a glaskit? Respont a rejont dezhañ: Rabbi (da lavarout eo Mestr), pelec'h e chomez?
And Jesus having turned, and having seen them following, says to them, What seek ye? And they said to him, Rabbi (which says, being interpreted, Teacher), where do thou dwell?
39 Eñ a lavaras dezho: Deuit ha gwelit. Mont a rejont, hag e weljont pelec'h e chome, hag e chomjont gantañ an deiz-se, rak war-dro an dekvet eur e oa.
He says to them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and remained with him that day. It was about the tenth hour.
40 Andrev, breur Simon-Pêr, a oa unan eus an daou o devoa klevet ar pezh en devoa lavaret Yann, hag o devoa heuliet Jezuz.
Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, was one of the two who heard from John and who followed him.
41 Andrev a gavas da gentañ Simon e vreur, hag a lavaras dezhañ: Ni hon eus kavet ar Mesiaz (da lavarout eo ar C'hrist, an Eouliet).
This man first finds his own brother Simon, and says to him, We have found the Messiah (which is, being interpreted, Christ).
42 Hag e tegasas anezhañ da Jezuz. Jezuz, o vezañ sellet outañ, a lavaras dezhañ: Te eo Simon, mab Jona; te a vo galvet Kefaz (da lavarout eo Pêr).
And he brought him to Jesus. And having seen him, Jesus said, Thou are Simon the son of Jonah. Thou will be called Cephas (which is interpreted, Peter).
43 An deiz war-lerc'h, Jezuz a c'hoantaas mont e Galilea, hag e kavas Filip; lavarout a reas dezhañ: Heul ac'hanon.
On the morrow he wanted to go forth into Galilee, and he finds Philip. And Jesus says to him, Follow me.
44 Filip a oa eus Betsaida, kêr Andrev ha Pêr.
Now Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter.
45 Filip a gavas Natanael hag a lavaras dezhañ: Kavet hon eus an hini a zo bet skrivet diwar e benn gant Moizez el lezenn ha gant ar brofeded: Jezuz, mab Jozef, eus Nazared.
Philip finds Nathanael, and says to him, We have found him of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets wrote: Jesus the son of Joseph of Nazareth.
46 Natanael a lavaras dezhañ: Hag eus Nazared e c'hell dont un dra vat bennak? Filip a lavaras dezhañ: Deus ha gwel.
And Nathanael said to him, What good can be from Nazareth? Philip says to him, Come and see.
47 Jezuz, o welout Natanael o tont d'e gavout, a lavaras diwar e benn: Setu ur gwir Israelad, ha n'eus ket a droidell ennañ.
Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and says about him, Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit.
48 Natanael a lavaras dezhañ: A-belec'h ec'h anavezez ac'hanon? Jezuz a respontas dezhañ: A-raok ma c'halvas Filip ac'hanout, pa oas dindan ar wezenn-fiez, e welen ac'hanout.
Nathanael says to him, How do thou know me? Jesus answered and said to him, Before Philip called thee, being under the fig tree, I saw thee.
49 Natanael a respontas dezhañ: Mestr, te eo Mab Doue, te eo roue Israel.
Nathanael answered, and says to him, Rabbi, thou are the Son of God. Thou are the king of Israel.
50 Jezuz a respontas dezhañ: Abalamour ma em eus lavaret dit em boa da welet dindan ar wezenn-fiez, e kredez; te a welo traoù brasoc'h eget ar re-mañ.
Jesus answered and said to him, Because I said to thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, thou believe? Thou will see greater than these things.
51 Lavarout a reas ivez dezhañ: E gwirionez, e gwirionez, me a lavar deoc'h: A-vremañ c'hwi a welo an neñv digor, hag aeled Doue o pignat hag o tiskenn a-us da Vab an den.
And he says to him, Truly, truly, I say to you, henceforth ye will see the heaven opened, and the agents of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.
