¹Un deiz ma kelenne Jezuz ar bobl en templ, ha ma prezege an Aviel, ar veleien vras, ar skribed, hag an henaourien, o vezañ deuet, a gomzas outañ,

¹And it came to pass on one of the days, as he was teaching the people in the temple, and announcing the glad tidings, the chief priests and the scribes with the elders came up,

²hag a lavaras dezhañ: Lavar deomp dre beseurt galloud e rez an traoù-se, ha piv en deus roet dit ar galloud-se?

²and spoke to him saying, Tell us by what authority thou doest these things, or who is it who has given thee this authority?

³Eñ a respontas dezho: Me a c'houlenno ivez un dra ouzhoc'h; lavarit din,

³And he answering said to them, *I* also will ask you [one] thing, and tell me:

⁴badeziant Yann, ha dont a rae eus an neñv, pe eus an dud?

⁴The baptism of John, was it of heaven or of men?

⁵Hag int a soñje enno oc'h-unan, o lavarout: Mar lavaromp: Eus an neñv, e lavaro: Perak eta n'hoc'h eus ket kredet ennañ?

⁵And they reasoned among themselves, saying, If we should say, Of heaven, he will say, Why have ye not believed him?

⁶Ha mar lavaromp: Eus an dud, an holl bobl hor meinataio; rak krediñ a reont ez eo Yann ur profed.

⁶but if we should say, Of men, the whole people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.

⁷Dre-se e respontjont ne ouient ket a-belec'h e teue.

⁷And they answered, they did not know whence.

⁸Ha Jezuz a lavaras dezho: Ha me kennebeut, ne lavarin ket deoc'h dre beseurt galloud e ran an traoù-se.

⁸And Jesus said to them, Neither do *I* tell you by what authority I do these things.

⁹Neuze en em lakaas da lavarout d'ar bobl ar barabolenn-mañ: Un den a blantas ur winieg, he feurmas da winierien, hag ez eas evit pell amzer en ur vro all.

⁹And he began to speak to the people this parable: A man planted a vineyard and let it out to husbandmen, and left the country for a long time.

¹⁰Da amzer ar frouezh e kasas unan eus e servijerien etrezek ar winierien, evit ma rojent dezhañ frouezh eus ar winieg. Met ar winierien a gannas anezhañ hag e kasjont anezhañ kuit hep netra.

¹⁰And in the season he sent to the husbandmen a bondman, that they might give to him of the fruit of the vineyard; but the husbandmen, having beaten him, sent [him] away empty.

¹¹Kas a reas dezho c'hoazh ur servijer all; met e kannjont anezhañ, e rejont dezhañ meur a zismegañs, hag e kasjont anezhañ kuit hep netra.

¹¹And again he sent another bondman; but they, having beaten him also, and cast insult upon him, sent [him] away empty.

¹²Kas a reas c'hoazh un trede, met int a c'hloazas anezhañ ivez, hag e gasas kuit.

¹²And again he sent a third; and they, having wounded him also, cast [him] out.

¹³Mestr ar winieg a lavaras neuze: Petra a rin? Kas a rin va mab karet-mat; marteze, [pa en gwelint,] e toujint anezhañ.

¹³And the lord of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: perhaps when they see him they will respect [him].

¹⁴Met ar winierien, o vezañ e welet, a soñjas enno o-unan, o lavarout: Setu an heritour; [deuit,] lazhomp-eñ, evit ma vo an heritaj deomp.

¹⁴But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir; [come,] let us kill him, that the inheritance may become ours.

¹⁵Hag o vezañ e daolet er-maez eus ar winieg, e lazhjont anezhañ. Petra eta a raio mestr ar winieg?

¹⁵And having cast him forth out of the vineyard, they killed [him]. What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard do to them?

¹⁶Dont a raio, hag e tistrujo ar winierien-se, hag e roio ar winieg da re all. O vezañ klevet kement-se, e lavarjont: Ra ne c'hoarvezo ket-se!

¹⁶He will come and destroy those husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to others. And when they heard it they said, May it never be!

¹⁷Neuze, Jezuz, o sellout outo, a lavaras dezho: Petra eta eo ar pezh a zo skrivet evel-hen: Ar maen taolet kuit gant ar re a vañsone, a zo deuet da vezañ penn ar c'horn?

¹⁷But he looking at them said, What then is this that is written, The stone which they that builded rejected, this has become the corner-stone?

¹⁸An hini a gouezho war ar maen-se a vo brevet, ha flastret e vo an hini ma kouezho warnañ.

¹⁸Every one falling on this stone shall be broken, but on whomsoever it shall fall, it shall grind him to powder.

¹⁹Neuze ar veleien vras hag ar skribed a glaskas lakaat o daouarn warnañ d'an eur-se memes, rak anavezet o devoa mat penaos en devoa lavaret ar barabolenn-se a-enep dezho; met aon o devoa rak ar bobl.

¹⁹And the chief priests and the scribes sought the same hour to lay hands on him, and they feared the people; for they knew that he had spoken this parable of them.

²⁰Setu perak, oc'h evezhiañ anezhañ, e kasjont dezhañ tud hag a rae an neuz da vezañ reizh, evit e dapout en e gomzoù, abalamour d'e lakaat e daouarn mestr ar vro hag e galloud ar gouarner.

²⁰And having watched [him], they sent out suborned persons, pretending to be just men, that they might take hold of him in [his] language, so that they might deliver him up to the power and authority of the governor.

²¹An dud-mañ eta a c'houlennas digantañ: Mestr, gouzout a reomp e komzez hag e kelennez gant eeunder ha ne rez van a zen ebet, met e kelennez hent Doue hervez ar wirionez.

²¹And they asked him saying, Teacher, we know that thou sayest and teachest rightly, and acceptest no [man's] person, but teachest with truth the way of God:

²²Ha dleet eo paeañ ar gwir da Gezar, pe n'eo ket?

²²Is it lawful for us to give tribute to Caesar, or not?

²³Met eñ, oc'h anavezout o gwidre, a lavaras dezho: [Perak e temptit ac'hanon?]

²³But perceiving their deceit he said to them, Why do ye tempt me?

²⁴Diskouezit din un diner. Eus piv eo ar skeud hag ar skrid-mañ? Int a respontas: Eus Kezar.

²⁴Shew me a denarius. Whose image and superscription has it? And answering they said, Caesar's.

²⁵Neuze eñ a lavaras dezho: Roit eta da Gezar ar pezh a zo da Gezar, ha da Zoue ar pezh a zo da Zoue.

²⁵And he said to them, Pay therefore what is Caesar's to Caesar, and what is God's to God.

²⁶Ne c'helljont ket e dapout en e gomzoù dirak ar bobl; met, o vezañ souezhet gant e respont, e tavjont.

²⁶And they were not able to take hold of him in [his] expressions before the people, and, wondering at his answer, they were silent.

²⁷Neuze hiniennoù a-douez ar sadukeiz, ar re a lavar n'eus ket a adsavidigezh a varv, a dostaas, hag a reas outañ ar goulenn-mañ:

²⁷And some of the Sadducees, who deny that there is any resurrection, coming up [to him],

²⁸Mestr, Moizez en deus gourc'hemennet deomp, ma teuje breur unan bennak da vervel ha da lezel e wreg hep bugale, e vreur a zimezo d'ar wreg, evit sevel lignez d'e vreur.

²⁸demanded of him saying, Teacher, Moses wrote to us, If any one's brother, who has a wife, die, and he die childless, his brother shall take the wife and raise up seed to his brother.

²⁹Bez' e oa eta seizh breur. An hini kentañ o vezañ kemeret ur wreg, a varvas hep lezel bugale.

²⁹There were then seven brethren: and the first, having taken a wife, died childless;

³⁰An eil a zimezas d'e wreg, hag a varvas hep bugale.

³⁰and the second [took the woman, and *he* died childless];

³¹An trede he c'hemeras ivez, hag o seizh holl en hevelep doare, hag e varvjont hep lezel bugale.

³¹and the third took her: and in like manner also the seven left no children and died;

³²Ha goude holl ar wreg a varvas ivez.

³²and last of all the woman also died.

³³A behini anezho e vo eta gwreg, en adsavidigezh a varv? Rak bet eo gwreg dezho o seizh.

³³In the resurrection therefore of which of them does she become wife, for the seven had her as wife?

³⁴Jezuz a respontas dezho: Bugale ar c'hantved-mañ a zimez, hag a ro da zimeziñ.

³⁴And Jesus said to them, The sons of this world marry and are given in marriage,

³⁵Met ar re a vo kavet din da gaout lod er c'hantved da zont en adsavidigezh a-douez ar re varv, ne zimezint ket ha ne roint ket da zimeziñ.

³⁵but they who are counted worthy to have part in that world, and the resurrection from among [the] dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage;

³⁶Rak ne c'hellint ket kennebeut mervel, abalamour ma vint heñvel ouzh an aeled, ha ma vint bugale Doue, o vezañ bugale an adsavidigezh a varv.

³⁶for neither can they die any more, for they are equal to angels, and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.

³⁷Met, penaos ar re varv a adsav da vev, kement-se eo a ziskouez Moizez pa c'halv er vodenn loskus an Aotrou, Doue Abraham, Doue Izaak ha Doue Jakob.

³⁷But that the dead rise, even Moses shewed in [the section of] the bush, when he called [the] Lord the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob;

³⁸Doue n'eo ket Doue ar re varv, met Doue ar re vev; rak an holl a vev evitañ.

³⁸but he is not God of [the] dead but of [the] living; for all live for him.

³⁹Hag hiniennoù eus ar skribed, o kemer ar gomz, a lavaras: Mestr, komzet mat ec'h eus.

³⁹And some of the scribes answering said, Teacher, thou hast well spoken.

⁴⁰Ha ne gredent ken goulenn netra outañ.

⁴⁰For they did not dare any more to ask him anything.

⁴¹Neuze e lavaras dezho: Perak e lavarer eo ar C'hrist Mab David?

⁴¹And he said to them, How do they say that the Christ is David's son,

⁴²David e-unan a lavar e levr ar Salmoù: An Aotrou en deus lavaret da'm Aotrou: Azez a-zehou din,

⁴²and David himself says in the book of Psalms, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand

⁴³betek ma em bo graet eus da enebourien ur skabell dindan da dreid.

⁴³until I put thine enemies [as] footstool of thy feet?

⁴⁴Mar galv eta David anezhañ Aotrou, penaos eo eñ e vab?

⁴⁴David therefore calls him Lord, and how is he his son?

⁴⁵Evel ma selaoue an holl bobl, e lavaras d'e ziskibien:

⁴⁵And, as all the people were listening, he said to his disciples,

⁴⁶Diwallit diouzh ar skribed a gar pourmen gant saeoù hir ha bezañ saludet er marc'hallac'hioù, hag a gar ar c'hadorioù kentañ er sinagogennoù, hag ar plasoù kentañ er festoù;

⁴⁶Beware of the scribes, who like to walk about in long robes, and who love salutations in the market-places, and first seats in the synagogues, and first places at suppers;

⁴⁷int a zismantr tiez an intañvezed, hag a ra evit ar gweled pedennoù hir; bez' o devo ur varnedigezh gwashoc'h.

⁴⁷who devour the houses of widows, and as a pretext make long prayers. These shall receive a severer judgment.
