¹Samuel also said unto Saul, The LORD sent me to anoint thee to be king over his people, over Israel: now therefore hearken thou unto the voice of the words of the LORD.

¹ Dywedodd Samuel wrth Saul, "Anfonwyd fi gan yr ARGLWYDD i'th eneinio'n frenin ar ei bobl Israel; felly gwrando'n awr ar eiriau'r ARGLWYDD.

²Thus saith the LORD of hosts, I remember that which Amalek did to Israel, how he laid wait for him in the way, when he came up from Egypt.

² Fel hyn y dywed ARGLWYDD y Lluoedd: 'Yr wyf am gosbi Amalec am yr hyn a wnaeth i Israel, sef eu rhwystro hwy ar y ffordd wrth iddynt ddod i fyny o'r Aifft.'

³Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.

³ Dos, yn awr, a tharo'r Amaleciaid, a'u llwyr ddinistrio hwy a phopeth sydd ganddynt; paid �'u harbed, ond lladd bob dyn a dynes, pob plentyn a baban, pob eidion a dafad, pob camel ac asyn."

⁴And Saul gathered the people together, and numbered them in Telaim, two hundred thousand footmen, and ten thousand men of Judah.

⁴ Felly galwodd Saul y fyddin allan a'u rhestru yn Telaim. Yr oedd dau gan mil o wu375?r traed, a deng mil o ddynion Jwda.

⁵And Saul came to a city of Amalek, and laid wait in the valley.

⁵ Pan ddaeth Saul at ddinas yr Amaleciaid, ymguddiodd mewn cwm,

⁶And Saul said unto the Kenites, Go, depart, get you down from among the Amalekites, lest I destroy you with them: for ye showed kindness to all the children of Israel, when they came up out of Egypt. So the Kenites departed from among the Amalekites.

⁶ a dweud wrth y Ceneaid, "Ewch i ffwrdd, cefnwch ar yr Amaleciaid, rhag imi eich distrywio chwi gyda hwy; oherwydd buoch chwi'n garedig wrth yr holl Israeliaid pan oeddent yn dod i fyny o'r Aifft." Aeth y Ceneaid ymaith oddi wrth yr Amaleciaid;

⁷And Saul smote the Amalekites from Havilah until thou comest to Shur, that is over against Egypt.

⁷ yna trawodd Saul Amalec o Hafila hyd at Sur ar gwr yr Aifft.

⁸And he took Agag the king of the Amalekites alive, and utterly destroyed all the people with the edge of the sword.

⁸ Daliodd Agag brenin Amalec yn fyw, ond lladdodd y bobl i gyd �'r cleddyf.

⁹But Saul and the people spared Agag, and the best of the sheep, and of the oxen, and of the fatlings, and the lambs, and all that was good, and would not utterly destroy them: but every thing that was vile and refuse, that they destroyed utterly.

⁹ Arbedodd Saul a'r fyddin nid yn unig Agag, ond hefyd y gorau o'r defaid a'r gwartheg, yr anifeiliaid breision a'r u373?yn, a phopeth o werth. Nid oeddent yn fodlon difa'r rheini; ond difodwyd popeth gwael a diwerth.

¹⁰Then came the word of the LORD unto Samuel, saying,

¹⁰ Yna daeth gair yr ARGLWYDD at Samuel, yn dweud,

¹¹It repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king: for he is turned back from following me, and hath not performed my commandments. And it grieved Samuel; and he cried unto the LORD all night.

¹¹ "Y mae'n edifar gennyf fy mod wedi gwneud Saul yn frenin, oherwydd y mae wedi cefnu arnaf a heb gadw fy ngorchymyn." Digiodd Samuel, a galwodd ar yr ARGLWYDD drwy'r nos.

¹²And when Samuel rose early to meet Saul in the morning, it was told Samuel, saying, Saul came to Carmel, and, behold, he set him up a place, and is gone about, and passed on, and gone down to Gilgal.

¹² Bore trannoeth cododd yn gynnar i gyfarfod � Saul, ond dywedwyd wrtho fod Saul wedi mynd i Garmel, ac wedi codi cofeb iddo'i hun yno cyn troi'n �l a mynd draw i Gilgal.

¹³And Samuel came to Saul: and Saul said unto him, Blessed be thou of the LORD: I have performed the commandment of the LORD.

¹³ Wedi i Samuel ddod o hyd i Saul, dywedodd Saul wrtho, "Bendith yr ARGLWYDD arnat! Yr wyf wedi cadw gorchymyn yr ARGLWYDD."

¹⁴And Samuel said, What meaneth then this bleating of the sheep in mine ears, and the lowing of the oxen which I hear?

¹⁴ Gofynnodd Samuel, "Beth ynteu yw'r brefu defaid sydd yn fy nghlustiau, a'r su373?n gwartheg yr wyf yn ei glywed?"

¹⁵And Saul said, They have brought them from the Amalekites: for the people spared the best of the sheep and of the oxen, to sacrifice unto the LORD thy God; and the rest we have utterly destroyed.

¹⁵ Dywedodd Saul, "Y bobl sydd wedi dod � hwy oddi wrth yr Amaleciaid, oherwydd y maent wedi arbed y gorau o'r defaid a'r gwartheg er mwyn aberthu i'r ARGLWYDD dy Dduw. Yr ydym wedi difa'r gweddill."

¹⁶Then Samuel said unto Saul, Stay, and I will tell thee what the LORD hath said to me this night. And he said unto him, Say on.

¹⁶ Dywedodd Samuel wrth Saul, "Taw, imi gael dweud wrthyt beth a ddywedodd yr ARGLWYDD wrthyf neithiwr." Meddai yntau wrtho, "Dywed."

¹⁷And Samuel said, When thou wast little in thine own sight, wast thou not made the head of the tribes of Israel, and the LORD anointed thee king over Israel?

¹⁷ A dywedodd Samuel, "Er iti fod yn fychan yn d'olwg dy hun, oni ddaethost yn ben ar lwythau Israel, a'r ARGLWYDD wedi d'eneinio'n frenin ar Israel?

¹⁸And the LORD sent thee on a journey, and said, Go and utterly destroy the sinners the Amalekites, and fight against them until they be consumed.

¹⁸ Fe anfonodd yr ARGLWYDD di allan a dweud, 'Dos a difroda'r pechaduriaid hynny, Amalec, a rhyfela � hwy nes eu difa.'

¹⁹Wherefore then didst thou not obey the voice of the LORD, but didst fly upon the spoil, and didst evil in the sight of the LORD?

¹⁹ Pam na wrandewaist ar lais yr ARGLWYDD, ond rhuthro ar yr ysbail, a gwneud drwg yng ngolwg yr ARGLWYDD?"

²⁰And Saul said unto Samuel, Yea, I have obeyed the voice of the LORD, and have gone the way which the LORD sent me, and have brought Agag the king of Amalek, and have utterly destroyed the Amalekites.

²⁰ Dywedodd Saul wrth Samuel, "Ond yr wyf wedi gwrando ar lais yr ARGLWYDD, a mynd fel yr anfonodd ef fi; deuthum ag Agag brenin Amalec yn �l, a difrodi'r Amaleciaid.

²¹But the people took of the spoil, sheep and oxen, the chief of the things which should have been utterly destroyed, to sacrifice unto the LORD thy God in Gilgal.

²¹ Fe gymerodd y bobl beth o'r ysbail, yn ddefaid a gwartheg, y pigion o'r diofryd, er mwyn aberthu i'r ARGLWYDD dy Dduw yn Gilgal."

²²And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.

²² Yna dywedodd Samuel: "A oes gan yr ARGLWYDD bleser mewn offrymau ac ebyrth, fel mewn gwrando ar lais yr ARGLWYDD? Gwell gwrando nag aberth, ac ufudd-dod na braster hyrddod.

²³For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king.

²³ Yn wir, pechod fel dewiniaeth yw anufudd-dod, a throsedd fel addoli eilunod yw cyndynrwydd. Am i ti wrthod gair yr ARGLWYDD, gwrthododd ef di fel brenin."

²⁴And Saul said unto Samuel, I have sinned: for I have transgressed the commandment of the LORD, and thy words: because I feared the people, and obeyed their voice.

²⁴ Dywedodd Saul wrth Samuel, "Yr wyf wedi pechu, oblegid yr wyf wedi torri gorchymyn yr ARGLWYDD a'th air dithau, am imi ofni'r bobl a gwrando ar eu llais.

²⁵Now therefore, I pray thee, pardon my sin, and turn again with me, that I may worship the LORD.

²⁵ Maddau'n awr fy mai, a thyrd yn �l gyda mi, er mwyn imi ymostwng i'r ARGLWYDD."

²⁶And Samuel said unto Saul, I will not return with thee: for thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, and the LORD hath rejected thee from being king over Israel.

²⁶ Ond dywedodd Samuel wrth Saul, "Na ddof; yr wyt wedi gwrthod gair yr ARGLWYDD, ac y mae'r ARGLWYDD wedi dy wrthod di fel brenin ar Israel."

²⁷And as Samuel turned about to go away, he laid hold upon the skirt of his mantle, and it rent.

²⁷ Trodd Samuel i fynd i ffwrdd, ond cydiodd Saul yng nghwr ei fantell, ac fe rwygodd.

²⁸And Samuel said unto him, The LORD hath rent the kingdom of Israel from thee this day, and hath given it to a neighbor of thine, that is better than thou.

²⁸ Ac meddai Samuel wrtho, "Y mae'r ARGLWYDD wedi rhwygo brenhiniaeth Israel oddi wrthyt heddiw, ac am ei rhoi i un yn d'ymyl sy'n well na thi.

²⁹And also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor repent: for he is not a man, that he should repent.

²⁹ Nid yw Ysblander Israel yn dweud celwydd nac yn edifarhau, oherwydd nid meidrolyn yw ef, i newid ei feddwl."

³⁰Then he said, I have sinned: yet honor me now, I pray thee, before the elders of my people, and before Israel, and turn again with me, that I may worship the LORD thy God.

³⁰ Dywedodd Saul eto, "Rwyf ar fai, ond dangos di barch tuag ataf gerbron henuriaid fy mhobl a'r Israeliaid, a thyrd yn �l gyda mi, er mwyn imi ymostwng gerbron yr ARGLWYDD dy Dduw."

³¹So Samuel turned again after Saul; and Saul worshipped the LORD.

³¹ Yna dychwelodd Samuel gyda Saul, ac ymostyngodd Saul gerbron yr ARGLWYDD.

³²Then said Samuel, Bring ye hither to me Agag the king of the Amalekites. And Agag came unto him delicately. And Agag said, Surely the bitterness of death is past.

³² A dywedodd Samuel, "Dewch ag Agag brenin Amalec ataf fi." Daeth Agag ato'n anfoddog, a dweud, "Fe giliodd chwerwder marwolaeth."

³³And Samuel said, As the sword hath made women childless, so shall thy mother be childless among women. And Samuel hewed Agag in pieces before the LORD in Gilgal.

³³ Ond dywedodd Samuel: "Fel y gwnaeth dy gleddyf di wragedd yn ddi-blant, felly bydd dy fam dithau'n ddi-blant ymysg gwragedd." Yna darniodd Samuel Agag gerbron yr ARGLWYDD yn Gilgal.

³⁴Then Samuel went to Ramah; and Saul went up to his house to Gibeah of Saul.

³⁴ Wedyn aeth Samuel i Rama, a Saul i'w gartref yn Gibea Saul.

³⁵And Samuel came no more to see Saul until the day of his death: nevertheless Samuel mourned for Saul: and the LORD repented that he had made Saul king over Israel.

³⁵ Ni welodd Samuel mo Saul byth wedyn, hyd ddydd ei farw, ond gofidiodd am Saul. Yr oedd yn edifar gan yr ARGLWYDD ei fod wedi gwneud Saul yn frenin ar Israel.
