¹Bez' e oa ur c'hlañvour, anvet Lazar, eus Betania, kêriadenn Mari ha Marta he c'hoar.

¹Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus from Bethany, of the village of Mary and her sister, Martha.

²Mari a oa an hini a eoulias an Aotrou a c'hwez-vat, hag a dorchas e dreid gant he blev; ha Lazar, he breur, a oa klañv.

²It was that Mary who had anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother, Lazarus, was sick.

³Ar c'hoarezed eta a gasas da lavarout da Jezuz: Aotrou, an hini a garez a zo klañv.

³The sisters therefore sent to him, saying, “Lord, behold, he for whom you have great affection is sick.”

⁴Jezuz, o vezañ klevet kement-se, a lavaras: Ar c'hleñved-se n'eo ket d'ar marv, met evit gloar Doue eo, evit ma vo roet gloar da Vab Doue a gement-se.

⁴But when Jesus heard it, he said, “This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, that God’s Son may be glorified by it.”

⁵Jezuz a gare Marta, hag he c'hoar, ha Lazar.

⁵Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.

⁶Koulskoude, p'en devoa klevet penaos e oa klañv, e chomas daou zevezh c'hoazh el lec'h ma oa.

⁶When therefore he heard that he was sick, he stayed two days in the place where he was.

⁷Neuze e lavaras d'e ziskibien: Distroomp e Judea.

⁷Then after this he said to the disciples, “Let’s go into Judea again.”

⁸An diskibien a lavaras dezhañ: Mestr, ar Yuzevien a glaske, n'eus ket pell, da veinata, hag e tistroez a-nevez di!

⁸The disciples told him, “Rabbi, the Jews were just trying to stone you, and are you going there again?”

⁹Jezuz a respontas dezho: Ha n'eus ket daouzek eur en deiz? Mar bale unan bennak e-pad an deiz, ne gouezh ket, abalamour ma wel sklêrijenn ar bed-mañ.

⁹Jesus answered, “Aren’t there twelve hours of daylight? If a man walks in the day, he doesn’t stumble, because he sees the light of this world.

¹⁰Met mar bale unan bennak e-pad an noz, e kouezh, abalamour n'eus ket a sklêrijenn ennañ.

¹⁰ But if a man walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light isn’t in him.”

¹¹Komz a reas evel-se, ha goude e lavaras dezho: Lazar, hor mignon, a gousk; met me a ya d'e zihuniñ.

¹¹He said these things, and after that, he said to them, “Our friend, Lazarus, has fallen asleep, but I am going so that I may awake him out of sleep.”

¹²E ziskibien a lavaras dezhañ: Aotrou, mar kousk, e vo yac'haet.

¹²The disciples therefore said, “Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will recover.”

¹³Met Jezuz en devoa komzet eus marv Lazar; hag int a grede e komze eus diskuizh ar c'housked.

¹³Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that he spoke of taking rest in sleep.

¹⁴Neuze Jezuz a lavaras dezho freals: Lazar a zo marv.

¹⁴So Jesus said to them plainly then, “Lazarus is dead.

¹⁵Hag ez eus joa ganin abalamour deoc'h, dre ne oan ket eno evit ma kredot; met deomp d'e gavout.

¹⁵ I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, so that you may believe. Nevertheless, let’s go to him.”

¹⁶Tomaz, galvet Didim, a lavaras d'an diskibien all: Deomp, ni ivez, evit mervel gant Jezuz.

¹⁶Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, “Didymus” means “Twin” said to his fellow disciples, “Let’s go also, that we may die with him.”

¹⁷Jezuz, o vezañ erruet, a gavas Lazar er bez abaoe dija pevar devezh.

¹⁷So when Jesus came, he found that he had been in the tomb four days already.

¹⁸Betania a oa war-dro pemzek stadenn eus Jeruzalem,

¹⁸Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about fifteen stadia 15 stadia is about 2.8 kilometers or 1.7 miles away.

¹⁹ha kalz eus ar Yuzevien a oa deuet da-gichen Marta ha Mari, evit o frealziñ diwar-benn o breur.

¹⁹Many of the Jews had joined the women around Martha and Mary, to console them concerning their brother.

²⁰Pa ouezas Marta e teue Jezuz, ez eas a-raok dezhañ; met Mari a chomas azezet er gêr.

²⁰Then when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, but Mary stayed in the house.

²¹Ha Marta a lavaras da Jezuz: Aotrou, ma vijes bet amañ, va breur ne vije ket marvet.

²¹Therefore Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you would have been here, my brother wouldn’t have died.

²²Met anavezout a ran penaos bremañ memes, holl gement a c'houlenni digant Doue, Doue en roio dit.

²²Even now I know that, whatever you ask of God, God will give you.”

²³Jezuz a lavaras dezhi: Da vreur a adsavo a varv.

²³Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.”

²⁴Marta a respontas dezhañ: Gouzout a ran ec'h adsavo da vev da adsavidigezh an deiz diwezhañ.

²⁴Martha said to him, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”

²⁵Jezuz a lavaras dezhi: Me eo an adsavidigezh hag ar vuhez; an hini a gred ennon a vevo, memes ha pa vefe marv.

²⁵Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will still live, even if he dies.

²⁶Ha piv bennak a vev hag a gred ennon, ne varvo biken. Ha krediñ a rez kement-se?

²⁶ Whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?”

²⁷Hi a lavaras dezhañ: Ya, Aotrou, me a gred out ar C'hrist, Mab Doue, an hini a zlee dont er bed.

²⁷She said to him, “Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Christ, God’s Son, he who comes into the world.”

²⁸P'he devoe lavaret kement-se, ez eas hag e c'halvas Mari, he c'hoar, e-kuzh, hag e lavaras dezhi: Ar Mestr a zo amañ, hag e c'halv ac'hanout.

²⁸When she had said this, she went away, and called Mary, her sister, secretly, saying, “The Teacher is here, and is calling you.”

²⁹Houmañ, o vezañ klevet anezhi, a savas buan, hag a zeuas d'e gavout.

²⁹When she heard this, she arose quickly, and went to him.

³⁰Jezuz ne oa ket c'hoazh aet er bourc'h, bez' e oa el lec'h ma oa deuet Marta a-raok dezhañ.

³⁰Now Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was in the place where Martha met him.

³¹Yuzevien a oa gant Mari en ti, ouzh he frealziñ; pa weljont e oa savet ken buan, hag e oa aet er-maez, e heuilhjont anezhi, o lavarout: Mont a ra da ouelañ d'ar bez.

³¹Then the Jews who were with her in the house, and were consoling her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up quickly and went out, followed her, saying, “She is going to the tomb to weep there.”

³²Pa voe deuet Mari el lec'h ma oa Jezuz, ha pa welas anezhañ, en em daolas d'e dreid, hag e lavaras dezhañ: Aotrou, ma vijes bet amañ, va breur ne vije ket marvet.

³²Therefore when Mary came to where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying to him, “Lord, if you would have been here, my brother wouldn’t have died.”

³³Pa welas Jezuz anezhi o ouelañ, ha penaos e ouele ivez ar Yuzevien a oa deuet ganti, e huanadas en e spered hag e voe trubuilhet;

³³When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews weeping who came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled,

³⁴neuze e lavaras: Pelec'h hoc'h eus e lakaet? Int a lavaras dezhañ: Aotrou, deus ha gwel.

³⁴and said, “Where have you laid him?” They told him, “Lord, come and see.”

³⁵Jezuz en em lakaas da ouelañ.

³⁵Jesus wept.

³⁶War gement-se ar Yuzevien a lavaras: Gwelit penaos e kare anezhañ.

³⁶The Jews therefore said, “See how much affection he had for him!”

³⁷Met hiniennoù anezho a lavaras: Eñ, an hini en deus digoret daoulagad an dall, ha ne c'hellje ket ober ivez na varvje ket hemañ?

³⁷Some of them said, “Couldn’t this man, who opened the eyes of him who was blind, have also kept this man from dying?”

³⁸Neuze Jezuz, o huanadiñ a-nevez ennañ e-unan, a zeuas d'ar bez: ur c'hev e oa, hag ur maen a oa lakaet warnañ.

³⁸Jesus therefore, again groaning in himself, came to the tomb. Now it was a cave, and a stone lay against it.

³⁹Jezuz a lavaras: Lamit ar maen. Marta, c'hoar an hini marv, a lavaras dezhañ: Aotrou, c'hwez fall a zo dija gantañ, rak aze emañ abaoe pevar deiz zo.

³⁹Jesus said, “Take away the stone.” Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said to him, “Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days.”

⁴⁰Jezuz a lavaras dezhi: Ne'm eus ket lavaret dit penaos, mar kredez, e weli gloar Doue?

⁴⁰Jesus said to her, “Didn’t I tell you that if you believed, you would see God’s glory?”

⁴¹Lemel a rejont eta ar maen [eus al lec'h ma oa gourvezet an hini marv]. Ha Jezuz, o sevel e zaoulagad war-zu an neñv, a lavaras: Tad, da drugarekaat a ran eus ma ec'h eus va selaouet.

⁴¹So they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying. NU omits “from the place where the dead man was lying.” Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, “Father, I thank you that you listened to me.

⁴²Gouzout a raen e selaouez ac'hanon atav, met e lavaret em eus abalamour d'ar bobl-mañ a zo en-dro din, evit ma kredo ec'h eus va degaset.

⁴² I know that you always listen to me, but because of the multitude that stands around I said this, that they may believe that you sent me.”

⁴³P'en devoe lavaret kement-se, e krias a vouezh uhel: Lazar, deus er-maez!

⁴³When he had said this, he cried with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!”

⁴⁴Hag an hini marv a zeuas er-maez, e zaouarn hag e dreid ereet gant bandennoù, hag e zremm goloet gant ul lienenn. Jezuz a lavaras dezho: Diereit anezhañ, ha lezit eñ da vont.

⁴⁴He who was dead came out, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and his face was wrapped around with a cloth. Jesus said to them, “Free him, and let him go.”

⁴⁵Kalz eta a-douez ar Yuzevien a oa deuet da welout Mari, hag o devoa gwelet ar pezh en devoa Jezuz graet, a gredas ennañ.

⁴⁵Therefore many of the Jews, who came to Mary and saw what Jesus did, believed in him.

⁴⁶Met hiniennoù anezho a yeas da gavout ar farizianed, hag a lavaras dezho ar pezh en devoa Jezuz graet.

⁴⁶But some of them went away to the Pharisees, and told them the things which Jesus had done.

⁴⁷Neuze ar veleien vras hag ar farizianed a zastumas ar sanedrin, hag a lavaras: Petra a raimp? Rak an den-se a ra kalz a virakloù.

⁴⁷The chief priests therefore and the Pharisees gathered a council, and said, “What are we doing? For this man does many signs.

⁴⁸Mar en lezomp d'ober, an holl a gredo ennañ, hag ar Romaned a zeuio, hag a zistrujo al lec'h-mañ hag hor pobl.

⁴⁸If we leave him alone like this, everyone will believe in him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.”

⁴⁹Met Kaifaz, unan anezho, hag a oa beleg-meur er bloavezh-se, a lavaras dezho: C'hwi n'ouzoc'h netra;

⁴⁹But a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all,

⁵⁰ha ne soñjit ket eo gwelloc'h da un den hepken mervel evit ar bobl, eget na vefe kollet holl dud ar vro?

⁵⁰nor do you consider that it is advantageous for us that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation not perish.”

⁵¹Hogen ne lavare ket kement-se anezhañ e-unan, met o vezañ beleg-meur er bloaz-se, e tiouganas penaos e tlee Jezuz mervel evit ar bobl;

⁵¹Now he didn’t say this of himself, but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation,

⁵²ha n'eo ket hepken evit ar bobl, met ivez evit dastum en ur c'horf hepken bugale Doue a zo a-stlabez.

⁵²and not for the nation only, but that he might also gather together into one the children of God who are scattered abroad.

⁵³Adalek an deiz-se en em guzuilhjont evit e lakaat d'ar marv.

⁵³So from that day forward they took counsel that they might put him to death.

⁵⁴Dre-se Jezuz n'en em ziskoueze ket en un doare frank e-touez ar Yuzevien, met mont a reas ac'hane en ur vro tost d'al lec'h distro, d'ur gêr galvet Efraim; hag e chomas eno gant e ziskibien.

⁵⁴Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews, but departed from there into the country near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim. He stayed there with his disciples.

⁵⁵Pask ar Yuzevien a oa tost, ha kalz a dud eus ar vro a bigne da Jeruzalem a-raok ar Pask, evit en em c'hlanaat.

⁵⁵Now the Passover of the Jews was at hand. Many went up from the country to Jerusalem before the Passover, to purify themselves.

⁵⁶Klask a raent eta Jezuz, hag, oc'h en em zerc'hel en templ, e lavarent an eil d'egile: Petra a soñjit? Ne zeuio ket d'ar gouel?

⁵⁶Then they sought for Jesus and spoke one with another, as they stood in the temple, “What do you think—that he isn’t coming to the feast at all?”

⁵⁷Met ar veleien vras hag ar farizianed o devoa roet urzh, penaos ma ouije unan bennak pelec'h e oa, ra en diskuilhje, evit ma krogjed ennañ.

⁵⁷Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had commanded that if anyone knew where he was, he should report it, that they might seize him.
