1When Jesus therefore was born in Bethlehem of Juda, in the days of king Herod, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem.
1Jezuz o vezañ bet ganet e Betlehem Judea, en amzer ar roue Herodez, setu e teuas majed eus ar sav-heol da Jeruzalem, en ur lavarout:
2Saying, Where is he that is born king of the Jews? For we have seen his star in the east, and are come to adore him.
2Pelec'h emañ an hini a zo ganet da roue d'ar Yuzevien? Rak gwelet hon eus e steredenn er sav-heol, ha deuet omp d'e azeuliñ.
3And king Herod hearing this, was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
3Pa glevas ar roue Herodez kement-se, e voe trubuilhet, hag holl Jeruzalem gantañ.
4And assembling together all the chief priests and the scribes of the people, he inquired of them where Christ should be born.
4O vezañ dastumet an holl veleien vras ha skribed ar bobl, e c'houlennas diganto pelec'h e tlee bezañ ganet ar C'hrist.
5But they said to him: In Bethlehem of Juda. For so it is written by the prophet:
5Int a lavaras dezhañ: E Betlehem Judea; rak evel-henn eo bet skrivet gant ar profed:
6And thou Bethlehem the land of Juda art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come forth the captain that shall rule my people Israel.
6Ha te, Betlehem, douar Judea, n'out ket an disterañ e-touez kêrioù pennañ Judea; rak ac'hanout eo, e teuio ur penn a reno va fobl Israel.
7Then Herod, privately calling the wise men, learned diligently of them the time of the star which appeared to them;
7Neuze Herodez, o vezañ galvet ar majed e-kuzh, a c'houlennas gant preder diganto e pe amzer e oa en em ziskouezet ar steredenn dezho.
8And sending them into Bethlehem, said: Go and diligently inquire after the child, and when you have found him, bring me word again, that I also may come to adore him.
8Hag, o kas anezho da Vetlehem, e lavaras: It, ha goulennit gant preder pelec'h emañ ar bugel bihan-se; ha pa ho po e gavet, roit din da anavezout, evit ma'z in me ivez d'e azeuliñ.
9Who having heard the king, went their way; and behold the star which they had seen in the east, went before them, until it came and stood over where the child was.
9Ar re-mañ, goude bezañ klevet ar roue, a yeas kuit; ha setu, ar steredenn o devoa gwelet er sav-heol, a yae en o raok, betek ma teuas ha ma chomas a-us d'ul lec'h ma oa ar bugel bihan.
10And seeing the star they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.
10Pa weljont ar steredenn, e voe karget o c'halonoù gant levenez.
11And entering into the house, they found the child with Mary his mother, and falling down they adored him; and opening their treasures, they offered him gifts; gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
11O vezañ aet en ti, e kavjont ar bugel gant Mari e vamm, hag, oc'h en em stouiñ d'an douar, ec'h azeuljont anezhañ; ha goude bezañ digoret o zeñzorioù, e kinnigjont dezhañ profoù: aour, ezañs ha mir.
12And having received an answer in sleep that they should not return to Herod, they went back another way into their country.
12O vezañ bet aliet gant Doue, dre un huñvre, ne zistrojont ket da gavout Herodez; mont a rejont d'o bro dre un hent all.
13And after they were departed, behold an angel of the Lord appeared in sleep to Joseph, saying: Arise, and take the child and his mother, and fly into Egypt: and be there until I shall tell thee. For it will come to pass that Herod will seek the child to destroy him.
13Goude ma oant aet kuit, setu, un ael eus an Aotrou en em ziskouezas da Jozef, dre un huñvre, en ur lavarout: Sav, kemer ar bugel hag e vamm, tec'h en Ejipt, ha chom eno betek e lavarin dit; rak Herodez a glasko ar bugel evit e lakaat d'ar marv.
14Who arose, and took the child and his mother by night, and retired into Egypt: and he was there until the death of Herod:
14Eñ, o vezañ savet, a gemeras ar bugel bihan hag e vamm e-pad an noz, hag en em dennas en Ejipt.
15That it might be fulfilled which the Lord spoke by the prophet, saying: Out of Egypt have I called my son.
15Hag e chomas eno betek ma varvas Herodez, evit ma vije peurc'hraet ar pezh en devoa an Aotrou lavaret dre ar profed: Galvet em eus va mab eus Ejipt.
16Then Herod perceiving that he was deluded by the wise men, was exceeding angry; and sending killed all the men children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the borders thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently inquired of the wise men.
16Neuze Herodez, o welout o devoa ar majed graet goap anezhañ, a voe en ur gounnar vras, hag a gasas da lazhañ an holl vugale a zaou vloaz ha yaouankoc'h, e Betlehem hag en e vro a-bezh, hervez an amzer en devoa goulennet gant preder digant ar vajed.
17Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremias the prophet, saying:
17Neuze e voe peurc'hraet ar pezh a oa bet lavaret gant ar profed Jeremia:
18A voice in Rama was heard, lamentation and great mourning; Rachel bewailing her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.
18Garmoù a zo bet klevet e Rama, hirvoudoù, gouelvan ha klemmvanoù bras: Rachel o ouelañ he bugale; ne fellas ket dezhi bezañ dic'hlac'haret, abalamour n'emaint mui.
19But when Herod was dead, behold an angel of the Lord appeared in sleep to Joseph in Egypt,
19Goude marv Herodez, setu, un ael eus an Aotrou en em ziskouezas da Jozef en Ejipt, dre un huñvre, o lavarout:
20Saying: Arise, and take the child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel. For they are dead that sought the life of the child.
20Sav, kemer ar bugel bihan hag e vamm, ha distro da vro-Israel, rak ar re a glaske ar bugel evit e lazhañ, a zo marv.
21Who arose, and took the child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.
21Hemañ, o vezañ savet, a gemeras ar bugel hag e vamm, hag a zeuas e bro-Israel.
22But hearing that Archelaus reigned in Judea in the room of Herod his father, he was afraid to go thither: and being warned in sleep retired into the quarters of Galilee.
22Met, pa glevas e rene Arkelauz e Judea e-lec'h e dad Herodez, en devoe aon da vont di; o vezañ bet aliet gant Doue dre un huñvre, en em dennas e kostezioù Galilea.
23And coming he dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was said by prophets: That he shall be called a Nazarene.
23Chom a reas en ur gêr anvet Nazared, evit ma vije peurc'hraet ar pezh a oa bet lavaret gant ar brofeded: Galvet e vo Nazaredad.
