¹Neuze, rouantelezh an neñvoù a vo heñvel ouzh dek gwerc'hez a gemer o lampoù ganto, hag a ya da ziaraogiñ ar pried.

¹ “Then the Kingdom of Heaven will be like ten virgins, who took their lamps, and went out to meet the bridegroom.

²Pemp anezho a oa diskiant, ha pemp a oa fur.

² Five of them were foolish, and five were wise.

³Ar re ziskiant, en ur gemer o lampoù, ne gemerjont ket a eoul ganto.

³ Those who were foolish, when they took their lamps, took no oil with them,

⁴Ar re fur a gemeras eoul en o fodoù, gant o lampoù.

⁴ but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

⁵Evel ma talee ar pried da zont, e voredjont holl hag e kouskjont.

⁵ Now while the bridegroom delayed, they all slumbered and slept.

⁶Met, war-dro hanternoz, e voe klevet ur griadenn: Setu ar pried a zeu, it en e raok!

⁶ But at midnight there was a cry, ‘Behold! The bridegroom is coming! Come out to meet him!’

⁷Neuze an holl werc'hezed-se a savas hag a fichas o lampoù.

⁷ Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. The end of the wick of an oil lamp needs to be cut off periodically to avoid having it become clogged with carbon deposits. The wick height is also adjusted so that the flame burns evenly and gives good light without producing a lot of smoke.

⁸Ar re ziskiant a lavaras d'ar re fur: Roit deomp eus hoc'h eoul, rak hol lampoù a ya da vougañ.

⁸ The foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’

⁹Met ar re fur a respontas: Gant aon n'hor befe ket a-walc'h evidomp hag evidoc'h, it kentoc'h da gavout ar re a werzh, ha prenit evidoc'h.

⁹ But the wise answered, saying, ‘What if there isn’t enough for us and you? You go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.’

¹⁰E-pad ma'z aent da brenañ, e teuas ar pried; ar re a oa prest a zeuas gantañ d'an eured, hag e voe serret an nor.

¹⁰ While they went away to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast, and the door was shut.

¹¹Goude-se e teuas ivez ar gwerc'hezed all, hag e lavarjont: Aotrou, aotrou, digor deomp!

¹¹ Afterward the other virgins also came, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us.’

¹²Met eñ a respontas: Me a lavar deoc'h e gwirionez, n'anavezan ket ac'hanoc'h.

¹² But he answered, ‘Most certainly I tell you, I don’t know you.’

¹³Chomit dihun eta, rak n'ouzoc'h nag an deiz nag an eur [ma teuio Mab an den en-dro].

¹³ Watch therefore, for you don’t know the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.

¹⁴Rak heñvel eo ouzh un den a yeas en ur vro bell, a c'halvas e servijerien, hag a lakaas e vadoù etre o daouarn.

¹⁴ “For it is like a man, going into another country, who called his own servants, and entrusted his goods to them.

¹⁵Reiñ a reas pemp talant da unan, daou da unan all, unan da unan all, da bep hini hervez e c'halloud.

¹⁵ To one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one; to each according to his own ability. Then he went on his journey.

¹⁶Neuze, an hini en devoa resevet ar pemp talant, a yeas hag o lakaas da dalvezout, hag a c'hounezas pemp talant all.

¹⁶ Immediately he who received the five talents went and traded with them, and made another five talents.

¹⁷En hevelep doare, an hini en devoa resevet daou dalant, a c'hounezas daou all.

¹⁷ In the same way, he also who got the two gained another two.

¹⁸Met an hini en devoa resevet unan, a yeas d'ober un toull en douar hag a guzhas arc'hant e aotrou.

¹⁸ But he who received the one went away and dug in the earth, and hid his lord’s money.

¹⁹Pell amzer goude, mestr ar servijerien-mañ a zistroas, hag e reas o c'hont ganto.

¹⁹ “Now after a long time the lord of those servants came, and reconciled accounts with them.

²⁰An hini en devoa resevet pemp talant, a zeuas hag a zegasas pemp talant all, en ur lavarout: Aotrou, pemp talant ac'h eus roet din, setu pemp talant all am eus gounezet ouzhpenn.

²⁰ He who received the five talents came and brought another five talents, saying, ‘Lord, you delivered to me five talents. Behold, I have gained another five talents besides them.’

²¹E vestr a lavaras dezhañ: Mat eo, servijer mat ha leal; dre ma'z out bet leal war nebeut a dra, da lakaat a rin war galz; kae e-barzh levenez da aotrou.

²¹ “His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’

²²An hini en devoa resevet daou dalant a zeuas ivez hag a lavaras: Aotrou, daou dalant ac'h eus roet din, setu daou dalant all am eus gounezet ouzhpenn.

²² “He also who got the two talents came and said, ‘Lord, you delivered to me two talents. Behold, I have gained another two talents besides them.’

²³E vestr a lavaras dezhañ: Mat eo, servijer mat ha leal; dre ma'z out bet leal war nebeut a dra, da lakaat a rin war galz; kae e-barzh levenez da aotrou.

²³ “His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’

²⁴An hini n'en devoa resevet nemet un talant, a zeuas ivez hag a lavaras: Aotrou, gouzout a ran penaos out un den didruez, penaos e vedez e-lec'h na'c'h eus ket hadet, hag e tastumez e-lec'h na'c'h eus ket strewet;

²⁴ “He also who had received the one talent came and said, ‘Lord, I knew you that you are a hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you did not scatter.

²⁵hag e teuas aon din, hag on aet da guzhat da dalant en douar; setu, e roan dit ar pezh a zo dit.

²⁵ I was afraid, and went away and hid your talent in the earth. Behold, you have what is yours.’

²⁶Met e aotrou a respontas dezhañ: Servijer fall ha diegus, gouzout a ouies penaos e vedan e-lec'h na'm eus ket hadet, hag e tastuman e-lec'h na'm eus ket strewet;

²⁶ “But his lord answered him, ‘You wicked and slothful servant. You knew that I reap where I didn’t sow, and gather where I didn’t scatter.

²⁷dleout a rajes eta reiñ va arc'hant d'ar vankerien, ha pa vijen deuet en-dro, em bije tennet va arc'hant gant ar c'hampi.

²⁷ You ought therefore to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back my own with interest.

²⁸Lamit eta e dalant digantañ, hag roit eñ d'an hini en deus dek talant.

²⁸ Take away therefore the talent from him, and give it to him who has the ten talents.

²⁹Rak roet e vo d'an neb en deus, hag en devo a fonn; met an hini n'en deus ket, e vo lamet digantañ memes ar pezh en deus.

²⁹ For to everyone who has will be given, and he will have abundance, but from him who doesn’t have, even that which he has will be taken away.

³⁰Ha taolit ar servijer didalvoud-se en deñvalijenn a-ziavaez, e-lec'h ma vo goueladegoù ha grigoñsadegoù-dent.

³⁰ Throw out the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’

³¹Pa zeuio Mab an den en e c'hloar, gant an holl aeled, ec'h azezo war dron e c'hloar.

³¹ “But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory.

³²An holl bobloù a vo dastumet dirazañ, hag e tispartio an eil diouzh egile, evel ma tisparti ar mesaer an deñved diouzh ar bouc'hed.

³² Before him all the nations will be gathered, and he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.

³³Lakaat a raio an deñved a-zehou dezhañ, hag ar bouc'hed a-gleiz.

³³ He will set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.

³⁴Neuze ar Roue a lavaro d'ar re a vo a-zehou dezhañ: Deuit, c'hwi a zo benniget gant va Zad, bezit perc'henn war ar rouantelezh a zo bet kempennet evidoc'h adalek krouidigezh ar bed;

³⁴ Then the King will tell those on his right hand, ‘Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world;

³⁵rak naon am eus bet, ha roet hoc'h eus din da zebriñ; sec'hed am eus bet, ha roet hoc'h eus din da evañ; diavaeziad on bet, ha va degemeret hoc'h eus;

³⁵ for I was hungry, and you gave me food to eat. I was thirsty, and you gave me drink. I was a stranger, and you took me in.

³⁶en noazh e oan, ha va gwisket hoc'h eus; klañv e oan, ha deuet oc'h da'm gwelout; er prizon e oan, ha deuet oc'h da'm c'havout.

³⁶ I was naked, and you clothed me. I was sick, and you visited me. I was in prison, and you came to me.’

³⁷Neuze ar re reizh a responto dezhañ, o lavarout: Aotrou, pegoulz hon eus da welet o kaout naon hag hon eus roet dit da zebriñ, pe o kaout sec'hed hag hon eus roet dit da evañ?

³⁷ “Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry, and feed you; or thirsty, and give you a drink?

³⁸Pegoulz hon eus da welet diavaeziad hag hon eus da zegemeret, pe en noazh hag hon eus da wisket?

³⁸ When did we see you as a stranger, and take you in; or naked, and clothe you?

³⁹Pegoulz hon eus da welet klañv, pe er prizon, hag hon eus deuet da'z kavout?

³⁹ When did we see you sick, or in prison, and come to you?’

⁴⁰Hag ar Roue a responto dezho: Me a lavar deoc'h e gwirionez, bep gwech ma hoc'h eus graet kement-se e-keñver unan eus ar re zisterañ eus va breudeur, hoc'h eus graet an dra-se din.

⁴⁰ “The King will answer them, ‘Most certainly I tell you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers The word for “brothers” here may be also correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.” , you did it to me.’

⁴¹Neuze e lavaro d'ar re a vo a-gleiz dezhañ: Tec'hit diouzhin, tud villiget, it en tan peurbadus a zo bet kempennet evit an diaoul hag e aeled;

⁴¹ Then he will say also to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels;

⁴²rak naon am eus bet, ha n'hoc'h eus ket roet din da zebriñ; sec'hed am eus bet, ha n'hoc'h eus ket roet din da evañ;

⁴² for I was hungry, and you didn’t give me food to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me no drink;

⁴³diavaeziad on bet, ha n'hoc'h eus ket va degemeret; en noazh e oan, ha n'hoc'h eus ket va gwisket; klañv hag er prizon e oan, ha n'oc'h ket deuet da'm gwelout.

⁴³ I was a stranger, and you didn’t take me in; naked, and you didn’t clothe me; sick, and in prison, and you didn’t visit me.’

⁴⁴Neuze int a responto dezhañ, o lavarout: Aotrou, pegoulz hon eus da welet o kaout naon, pe sec'hed, diavaeziad, pe en noazh, klañv, pe er prizon, ha n'hon eus ket da sikouret?

⁴⁴ “Then they will also answer, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and didn’t help you?’

⁴⁵Hag e responto dezho: Me a lavar deoc'h e gwirionez, bep gwech ma n'hoc'h eus ket graet kement-se e-keñver unan eus ar re zisterañ-se, n'hoc'h eus ket graet an dra-se em c'heñver.

⁴⁵ “Then he will answer them, saying, ‘Most certainly I tell you, inasmuch as you didn’t do it to one of the least of these, you didn’t do it to me.’

⁴⁶Hag ar re-mañ a yelo er c'hastiz peurbadus, met ar re reizh er vuhez peurbadus.

⁴⁶ These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”
