Luc 3
1 Ar bemzekvet bloavezh eus impalaerded Tiberius Kezar, Poñs-Pilat o vezañ gouarner Judea, Herodez tetrark Galilea, Filip e vreur tetrark Iturea ha Trakonitiz, Lisaniaz tetrark Abilen,
Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip being tetrarch of the region belonging to Ituraea, and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias being tetrarch of Abilene,
2 dindan belegiezh veur Annaz ha Kaifaz, ger Doue a voe kaset da Yann, mab Zakaria, el lec'h distro.
in the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to be in John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
3 Yann a zeuas en holl vro war-dro ar Jordan, o prezeg badeziant ar geuzidigezh evit pardon ar pec'hedoù,
And he came into all the region around the Jordan, preaching an immersion of repentance for remission of sins,
4 evel ma'z eo skrivet e levr lavarioù ar profed Izaia: Mouezh an hini a gri el lec'h distro a lavar: Kempennit hent an Aotrou, plaenait e wenodennoù.
as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, which says, The voice of a man crying out in the wilderness: Prepare ye the way of the Lord. Make his paths straight.
5 Pep traonienn a vo leuniet, pep menez ha krec'hienn a vo izelaet; an hentoù gwariet a vo eeunaet, hag ar re dorgennek a vo kompezet;
Every valley will be filled, and every mountain and hill will be brought low. And the crooked things will be into straight and the rough into smooth ways.
6 ha pep kig a welo silvidigezh Doue.
And all flesh will see the salvation of God.
7 Lavarout a rae eta d'ar bobl a zeue evit bezañ badezet gantañ: Lignez a naered-wiber, piv en deus desket deoc'h tec'hout diouzh ar gounnar da zont?
He said therefore to the multitudes who went out to be immersed by him, Ye offspring of vipers, who showed you to flee from the coming wrath?
8 Dougit eta frouezh dereat d'ar geuzidigezh, ha n'en em lakait ket da lavarout ennoc'h hoc'h-unan: Ni hon eus evit tad Abraham; rak me a lavar deoc'h, e c'hell Doue ober genel eus ar vein-se bugale da Abraham.
Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and do not begin to say within yourselves, We have a father, Abraham. For I say to you, that God is able from these stones to raise up children to Abraham.
9 Ar vouc'hal a zo a-vremañ lakaet ouzh gwrizioù ar gwez. Pep gwezenn eta na ro ket frouezh mat, a ya da vezañ troc'het ha taolet en tan.
And even now the axe is laid at the root of the trees. Every tree therefore not making good fruit is cut down, and cast into fire.
10 Neuze ar bobl a c'houlennas digantañ: Petra a raimp eta?
And the crowds questioned him, saying, What then shall we do?
11 Eñ a respontas dezho: An neb en deus daou gwiskamant, ra roio unan d'an hini n'en deus ket.
And having answered, he says to them, He who has two coats, let him share with him not having, and he who has food, let him do likewise.
12 Dont a reas ivez publikaned evit bezañ badezet, hag e lavarjont dezhañ: Mestr, petra a raimp?
And tax collectors also came to be immersed, and they said to him, Teacher, what should we do?
13 Eñ a lavaras dezho: Na gemerit ket en tu-hont d'ar pezh a zo gourc'hemennet deoc'h.
And he said to them, Collect not one thing more than from what has been appointed for you.
14 Soudarded a c'houlennas ivez digantañ: Ha ni, petra a raimp? Eñ a lavaras dezho: Na wallgasit den ha na damallit den e gaou, met tremenit gant ho pae.
And men who were soldiers also questioned him, saying, And we, what should we do? And he said to them, Do violence to no man, nor accuse falsely, and be content with your wages.
15 Evel ma oa ar bobl o c'hortoz, ha ma c'houlenne an holl en o c'halon hag eñ ne oa ket Yann ar C'hrist,
And as the people were expectant, and all pondering in their hearts about John, if perhaps he was the Christ,
16 Yann en em lakaas da lavarout d'an holl: Me ho padez en dour, met unan all a zeu, galloudusoc'h egedon, ha n'on ket dellezek da zieren korreenn e votoù. Eñ ho padezo er Spered-Santel hag en tan.
John responded, saying to them all, I indeed immerse you in water, but a man mightier than I comes, of whom I am not worthy to unloose the strap of his shoes. He will immerse you in the Holy Spirit and fire,
17 E grouer a zo en e zaouarn, naetaat a raio mat e leur, hag e tastumo ar gwinizh en e solier, met ar pell a zevo en tan na varv ket.
whose winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his threshing floor, and will gather the wheat into his storehouse, but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire.
18 Eñ a lavare meur a gelennadurezh all d'ar bobl, o prezeg dezho an Aviel.
Indeed therefore, also exhorting the people with many other things, he preached the good news.
19 Met Herodez an tetrark, o vezañ bet tamallet gant Yann diwar-benn Herodiaz, gwreg [Filip] e vreur, ha diwar-benn an holl draoù fall en devoa graet,
But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him about Herodias his brother's wife, and about all of which evil things Herod had done,
20 a reas goude an holl draoù fall all, an hini da lakaat Yann er prizon.
also added this to them all, he even locked up John in prison.
21 Evel ma rae an holl bobl en em vadeziñ gantañ, Jezuz a voe ivez badezet; hag e-pad ma pede, an neñv a zigoras,
Now it came to pass, during the immersion of all the people, Jesus also having been immersed and praying, for the heaven to be opened,
22 hag ar Spered-Santel a ziskennas warnañ e doare ur c'horf, evel hini ur goulm; hag ur vouezh a zeuas eus an neñv, o lavarout: Te eo va Mab karet-mat, ennout em eus lakaet va holl levenez.
and the Holy Spirit to descend in a bodily form as a dove upon him, and a voice to occur out of heaven, saying, Thou are my beloved Son. In thee I am well pleased.
23 Jezuz a oa oadet war-dro tregont vloaz p'en em lakaas da brezeg, hag e oa, evel ma kreded, mab da Jozef, mab Heli,
