Abstract Deep-inelastic ep scattering data, taken with the H1 detector at HERA, are used to investigate jet production  over a range of four-momentum transfers 150 < Q^2 < 15 000 GeV^2 and transverse jet energies 5 < E_T < 50 GeV. The analysis is based on data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of L_int \simeq 65 pb^(-1) taken in the years 1999-2000 at a center-of-mass energy sqrt(s)=319 GeV. Jets are defined by the inclusive k_perp algorithm in the Breit frame of reference. Inclusive, Dijet and three-jet jet cross sections are measured multi-differentially, in addition the ratio of the three-jet to the dijet cross section R_(3/2) is investigated. The results are compared to the predictions of perturbative QCD calculations in next-to-leading order in the strong coupling constant alpha_s.
