King James Version with Apocrypha
1Kalz o vezañ kemeret ar garg da skrivañ istor an traoù c'hoarvezet, hag anavezet mat evit bezañ gwir en hon touez,
1Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us,
2hervez m'o deus degaset deomp ar re o deus o gwelet adalek ar penn-kentañ, hag a zo bet ministred ar Ger,
2Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word;
3kredet em eus ivez, Teofil mat-meurbet, e tleen o skrivañ dit dre urzh, goude bezañ graet un enklask pizh warno holl, gant evezh,
3It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write unto thee in order, most excellent Theophilus,
4evit ma'c'h anavezi ar wirionez diwar-benn ar pezh a zo bet desket dit.
4That thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been instructed.
5En amzer Herodez, roue Judea, e oa ur beleg anvet Zakaria, eus lignez Abia; e wreg a oa eus lignez Aaron, hag en em c'halve Elizabed.
5¶ There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judæa, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.
6Reizh e oant o-daou dirak an Aotrou, hag e heulient holl gourc'hemennoù hag urzhioù an Aotrou, en un doare divlam.
6And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
7N'o devoa ket a vugale, rak Elizabed a oa gaonac'h, hag o-daou, e oant aet war an oad.
7And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were now well stricken in years.
8Erruout a reas, evel ma rae Zakaria e garg a veleg dirak Doue, hervez urzh e dro,
8And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest’s office before God in the order of his course,
9ma voe galvet dre ar sord, hervez giz ar velegiezh, da vont e-barzh templ an Aotrou, evit deviñ an ezañs.
9According to the custom of the priest’s office, his lot was to burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.
10An holl bobl a oa er-maez o pediñ, d'an eur ma teved an ezañs.
10And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at the time of incense.
11Neuze un ael eus an Aotrou en em ziskouezas dezhañ en e sav, en tu dehou da aoter an ezañs.
11And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
12Zakaria, o welout anezhañ, a voe trubuilhet, hag ar spont a grogas ennañ.
12And when Zacharias saw him , he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.
13Met an ael a lavaras dezhañ: Zakaria, na'z pez ket aon, rak da bedenn a zo bet selaouet, Elizabed a c'hano dit ur mab, hag e roi dezhañ an anv a Yann.
13But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John.
14Bez' e vo evidout un abeg a joa hag a laouenidigezh, ha kalz en em laouenaio eus e c'hanedigezh.
14And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.
15Rak bras e vo dirak an Aotrou; n'evo na gwin, nag evaj kreñv ebet, ha leuniet e vo eus ar Spered-Santel adalek kof e vamm;
15For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother’s womb.
16distreiñ a raio kalz eus bugale Israel d'an Aotrou o Doue,
16And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God.
17hag e valeo dirazañ e spered hag e nerzh Elia, evit treiñ kalonoù an tadoù ouzh ar vugale, hag ar re disentus ouzh furnez ar re reizh, evit aozañ d'an Aotrou ur bobl tuet mat.
17And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
18Zakaria a lavaras d'an ael: A betra ec'h anavezin kement-se? Rak me a zo kozh, ha va gwreg a zo aet war an oad?
18And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.
19An ael a respontas dezhañ: Me eo Gabriel, an hini a chom dirak Doue; degaset on bet evit komz ouzhit ha disklêriañ dit ar c'heloù mat-mañ.
19And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to shew thee these glad tidings.
20Ha setu, te a ya da vezañ mut, ha ne c'helli ken komz, betek an deiz ma c'hoarvezo an traoù-mañ, abalamour ne'c'h eus ket kredet da'm c'homzoù, hag a erruo en o amzer.
20And, behold, thou shalt be dumb, and not able to speak, until the day that these things shall be performed, because thou believest not my words, which shall be fulfilled in their season.
21Koulskoude, ar bobl a c'hortoze Zakaria, hag a oa souezhet ma talee en templ.
21And the people waited for Zacharias, and marvelled that he tarried so long in the temple.
22Pa voe deuet er-maez, ne c'helle ket komz outo, hag ec'h anavezjont en devoa bet ur welidigezh en templ, rak dre sinoù en roe da gompren dezho; hag e chomas mut.
22And when he came out, he could not speak unto them: and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple: for he beckoned unto them, and remained speechless.
23Pa voe echuet deizioù e garg, ez eas d'e di.
23And it came to pass, that, as soon as the days of his ministration were accomplished, he departed to his own house.
24Un nebeut amzer goude, Elizabed, e wreg, en em gavas dougerez, hag en em guzhas e-pad pemp miz, o lavarout:
24And after those days his wife Elisabeth conceived, and hid herself five months, saying,
25Evel-se eo, en deus graet an Aotrou em c'heñver en deizioù-mañ, m'en deus sellet ouzhin, evit lemel an dismegañs a oa warnon dirak an dud.
25Thus hath the Lord dealt with me in the days wherein he looked on me , to take away my reproach among men.
26Er c'hwec'hvet miz, Doue a gasas an ael Gabriel en ur gêr a C'halilea galvet Nazared,
26And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,
27d'ur werc'hez a zlee dimeziñ d'un den anvet Jozef, eus tiegezh David; ar werc'hez-se a oa anvet Mari.
27To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary.
28An ael, o vezañ aet el lec'h ma oa, a lavaras dezhi: Da saludiñ a ran, te a zo bet resevet en gras, an Aotrou a zo ganit. [Benniget out e-touez ar gwragez.]
28And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.
29O vezañ gwelet an ael, e voe trubuilhet gant e gomzoù, hag e soñje enni ec'h-unan petra a c'helle ar salud-se bezañ.
29And when she saw him , she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.
30Neuze an ael a lavaras dezhi: Mari, na'z pez ket aon, rak kavet ec'h eus gras dirak Doue.
30And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.
31Setu, te a vo dougerez, hag e c'hani ur mab, hag e c'halvi e anv Jezuz.
31And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.
32Bras e vo, hag e vo galvet mab an Uhelañ-Meurbet, hag an Aotrou Doue a roio dezhañ tron David e dad.
32He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:
33Ren a raio da virviken war diegezh Jakob, hag e ren n'en devo ken a fin.
33And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.
34Neuze Mari a lavaras d'an ael: Penaos e c'hoarvezo kement-se, pa n'anavezan gwaz ebet?
34Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?
35An ael a respontas dezhi: Ar Spered-Santel a zeuio warnout, ha galloud an Uhelañ-Meurbet a c'holoio ac'hanout gant e skeud; dre-se ar bugel santel a vo ganet ac'hanout a vo galvet Mab Doue.
35And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.
36Ha setu, Elizabed da geniterv a zoug ivez ur mab en he c'hozhni, hag hemañ eo ar c'hwec'hvet miz eus an hini a oa galvet gaonac'h.
36And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.
37Rak n'eus netra dibosupl da Zoue.
37For with God nothing shall be impossible.
38Ha Mari a lavaras: Setu servijerez an Aotrou, ra vo graet din hervez da gomz. Hag an ael a bellaas diouti.
38And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.
39Neuze Mari a savas, hag a yeas buan da vro ar menezioù, en ur gêr eus Bro-Juda,
39And Mary arose in those days, and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Juda;
40hag, o vezañ aet e ti Zakaria, e saludas Elizabed.
40And entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth.
41Kerkent ha ma klevas Elizabed Salud Mari, ar bugel bihan a dridas en he c'hof; hag Elizabed a voe leuniet eus ar Spered-Santel.
41And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost:
42Hag o sevel he mouezh, e krias: Te a zo benniget e-touez ar gwragez, ha benniget eo frouezh da gof.
42And she spake out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.
43A-belec'h e teu kement-mañ din, ma teu mamm va Aotrou etrezek ennon?
43And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
44Rak mouezh da salud n'he deus ket kentoc'h skoet va divskouarn, m'en deus ar bugel bihan tridet gant levenez em c'hof.
44For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.
45Eürus eo an hini he deus kredet, rak graet e vo an traoù a zo bet lavaret dezhi a-berzh an Aotrou.
45And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.
46Neuze Mari a lavaras: Va ene a veul an Aotrou,
46And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord,
47ha va spered en em laouena e Doue va Salver,
47And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
48abalamour m'en deus sellet ouzh izelded e servijerez. Ha setu, diwar vremañ, e vin galvet eürus gant an holl rummadoù,
48For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
49rak an Holl-C'halloudek en deus graet traoù bras din; e anv a zo santel,
49For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.
50hag e drugarez en em astenn a oad en oad war ar re a zouj anezhañ.
50And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation.
51Diskouezet en deus nerzh e vrec'h; stlabezet en deus ar soñjezonoù a rae ar re lorc'hus en o c'halon.
51He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
52Didronet en deus ar re c'halloudek, ha savet en deus ar re vihan.
52He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.
53Leuniet en deus a vadoù a re o devoa naon, ha kaset en deus kuit ar re binvidik er goullo.
53He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away.
54Sikouret en deus Israel e servijer, o kaout soñj eus e drugarez,
54He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy;
55evel m'en devoa e lavaret d'hon tadoù, da Abraham ha d'e lignez da viken.
55As he spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed for ever.
56Mari a chomas gant Elizabed war-dro tri miz; neuze e tistroas d'he zi.
56And Mary abode with her about three months, and returned to her own house.
57Neuze, amzer Elizabed o vezañ deuet, e c'hanas ur mab.
57Now Elisabeth’s full time came that she should be delivered; and she brought forth a son.
58He amezeien hag he c'herent, o vezañ anavezet penaos en devoa an Aotrou diskouezet e drugarez en he c'heñver, en em laouenajont ganti.
58And her neighbours and her cousins heard how the Lord had shewed great mercy upon her; and they rejoiced with her.
59O vezañ deuet an eizhvet deiz evit amdroc'hañ ar bugel, e c'halvjont anezhañ Zakaria, eus anv e dad.
59And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child; and they called him Zacharias, after the name of his father.
60Met e vamm, o kemer ar gomz, a lavaras: Nann, met Yann e vo galvet.
60And his mother answered and said, Not so ; but he shall be called John.
61Hag e lavarjont dezhi: N'eus den ez kerentiezh hag a zo galvet eus an anv-se.
61And they said unto her, There is none of thy kindred that is called by this name.
62Neuze e c'houlennjont dre sin ouzh e dad penaos e felle dezhañ e vije galvet.
62And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called.
63Zakaria, o vezañ goulennet taolennoùigoù, a skrivas ar gerioù-mañ: Yann eo e anv. Hag an holl a voe souezhet.
63And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they marvelled all.
64Kerkent e c'henou a zigoras, e deod a ziereas, hag e komze en ur veuliñ Doue.
64And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue loosed , and he spake, and praised God.
65O holl amezeien a voe leuniet a spont, hag an holl draoù-mañ en em vrude dre holl venezioù Judea.
65And fear came on all that dwelt round about them: and all these sayings were noised abroad throughout all the hill country of Judæa.
66An holl re o c'hleve, o mire en o c'halon, hag e lavarent: Petra eta e vo ar bugel bihan-se? Ha dorn an Aotrou a oa warnañ.
66And all they that heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, What manner of child shall this be! And the hand of the Lord was with him.
67Neuze Zakaria e dad a voe leuniet eus ar Spered-Santel, hag e tiouganas, o lavarout:
67And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying,
68Benniget ra vo an Aotrou, Doue Israel, dre ma'z eo deuet da welout ha da zasprenañ e bobl,
68Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people,
69hag abalamour m'en deus savet deomp ur Salver Galloudek e tiegezh David e servijer,
69And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David;
70evel m'en devoa lavaret dre c'henou e brofeded santel, abaoe penn-kentañ ar bed,
70As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began:
71dre m'en deus hor saveteet a zaouarn hon enebourien, hag eus dorn an holl re a gasae ac'hanomp,
71That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us;
72evit ober trugarez e-keñver hon tadoù, o kaout soñj eus e emglev santel,
72To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant;
73eus al le en devoa graet da Abraham hon tad,
73The oath which he sware to our father Abraham,
74penaos, o vezañ hon tennet eus dorn hon enebourien, e roje deomp da servijañ anezhañ hep aon,
74That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,
75er santelezh hag er reizhder dirazañ e-pad holl deizioù hor buhez.
75In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.
76Ha te, bugel bihan, ta a vo galvet profed an Uhelañ-Meurbet; rak te a gerzho dirak dremm an Aotrou, evit kempenn e hentoù,
76And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways;
77evit reiñ anaoudegezh ar silvidigezh d'e bobl dre pardon eus o fec'hedoù,
77To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins,
78dre garantez trugarezus hon Doue; drezi, ar sav-heol eus an nec'h en deus hor gwelet,
78Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the dayspring from on high hath visited us,
79evit sklêrijennañ ar re a zo azezet en deñvalijenn hag e skeud ar marv, hag evit ren hor c'hammedoù e hent ar peoc'h.
79To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.
80Ar bugel bihan a greske hag en em greñvae er spered; hag e chomas el lec'hioù distro betek an deiz ma tlee bezañ diskouezet da Israel.
80And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, and was in the deserts till the day of his shewing unto Israel.
