¹And the ark of the LORD was in the country of the Philistines seven months.

¹ Wedi i arch yr ARGLWYDD fod yn Philistia saith mis,

²And the Philistines called for the priests and the diviners, saying, What shall we do to the ark of the LORD? tell us wherewith we shall send it to his place.

² galwodd y Philistiaid ar yr offeiriaid a'r dewiniaid a gofyn, "Beth a wnawn ni ag arch yr ARGLWYDD? Dywedwch wrthym sut yr anfonwn hi'n �l i'w lle."

³And they said, If ye send away the ark of the God of Israel, send it not empty; but in any wise return him a trespass offering: then ye shall be healed, and it shall be known to you why his hand is not removed from you.

³ Atebasant, "Os ydych yn anfon arch Duw Israel yn �l, peidiwch �'i hanfon heb rodd, gofalwch anfon gyda hi offrwm dros gamwedd; yna cewch eich iach�u a darganfod pam na symudwyd ei law oddi arnoch."

⁴Then said they, What shall be the trespass offering which we shall return to him? They answered, Five golden emerods, and five golden mice, according to the number of the lords of the Philistines: for one plague was on you all, and on your lords.

⁴ Pan ofynnwyd pa offrwm dros gamwedd a roddent iddo, dywedasant, "Pum cornwyd aur a phum llygoden aur, yn �l nifer arglwyddi'r Philistiaid, oherwydd yr un pla a fu ar bawb ohonoch chwi a'ch arglwyddi.

⁵Wherefore ye shall make images of your emerods, and images of your mice that mar the land; and ye shall give glory unto the God of Israel: peradventure he will lighten his hand from off you, and from off your gods, and from off your land.

⁵ Gwnewch fodelau o'ch cornwydydd, a'r llygod sy'n difa'r wlad, a rhowch ogoniant i Dduw Israel; efallai y bydd yn ysgafnhau ei law oddi arnoch chwi a'ch duw a'ch gwlad.

⁶Wherefore then do ye harden your hearts, as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their hearts? when he had wrought wonderfully among them, did they not let the people go, and they departed?

⁶ Pa les ystyfnigo fel y gwnaeth Pharo a'r Aifft? Wedi iddo ef eu trin fel y mynnai, oni fu raid iddynt ollwng Israel ymaith?

⁷Now therefore make a new cart, and take two milch kine, on which there hath come no yoke, and tie the kine to the cart, and bring their calves home from them:

⁷ Yn awr, paratowch fen newydd a chymryd dwy fuwch flith heb fod dan iau; rhwymwch y buchod wrth y fen a chadw eu lloi i mewn rhag iddynt eu dilyn.

⁸And take the ark of the LORD, and lay it upon the cart; and put the jewels of gold, which ye return him for a trespass offering, in a coffer by the side thereof; and send it away, that it may go.

⁸ Yna cymerwch arch yr ARGLWYDD a'i rhoi ar y fen, ac mewn cist wrth ei hochr rhowch y pethau aur yr ydych yn eu hanfon iddo yn offrwm dros gamwedd; a gadewch i'r arch fynd.

⁹And see, if it goeth up by the way of his own coast to Bethshemesh, then he hath done us this great evil: but if not, then we shall know that it is not his hand that smote us: it was a chance that happened to us.

⁹ Yna cewch weld; os � i fyny am Beth-semes i gyfeiriad ei chynefin, ef sydd wedi achosi'r drwg mawr hwn i ni; ond os nad �, byddwn yn gwybod nad ei law ef a'n trawodd, ond mai cyd-ddigwyddiad oedd hyn."

¹⁰And the men did so; and took two milch kine, and tied them to the cart, and shut up their calves at home:

¹⁰ Dyna a wnaeth y dynion, cymryd dwy fuwch fagu a'u rhwymo wrth fen a chadw eu lloi mewn cwt.

¹¹And they laid the ark of the LORD upon the cart, and the coffer with the mice of gold and the images of their emerods.

¹¹ Rhoesant arch yr ARGLWYDD ar y fen, gyda'r gist a'r llygod aur a'r modelau o'u cornwydydd.

¹²And the kine took the straight way to the way of Bethshemesh, and went along the highway, lowing as they went, and turned not aside to the right hand or to the left; and the lords of the Philistines went after them unto the border of Bethshemesh.

¹² Cerddodd y buchod ar eu hunion ar y ffordd i gyfeiriad Beth-semes, gan frefu wrth fynd, ond yn cadw i'r un briffordd heb wyro i'r dde na'r chwith; a cherddodd arglwyddi'r Philistiaid ar eu h�l hyd at derfyn Beth-semes.

¹³And they of Bethshemesh were reaping their wheat harvest in the valley: and they lifted up their eyes, and saw the ark, and rejoiced to see it.

¹³ Yr oedd pobl Beth-semes yn medi eu cynhaeaf gwenith yn y dyffryn, a phan godasant eu llygaid a gweld yr arch, yr oeddent yn llawen o'i gweld.

¹⁴And the cart came into the field of Joshua, a Bethshemite, and stood there, where there was a great stone: and they clave the wood of the cart, and offered the kine a burnt offering unto the LORD.

¹⁴ Daeth y fen i faes Josua, gu373?r o Beth-semes, a sefyll yno yn ymyl carreg fawr, ac wedi iddynt ddarnio coed y fen, offrymasant y buchod yn boethoffrwm i'r ARGLWYDD.

¹⁵And the Levites took down the ark of the LORD, and the coffer that was with it, wherein the jewels of gold were, and put them on the great stone: and the men of Bethshemesh offered burnt offerings and sacrificed sacrifices the same day unto the LORD.

¹⁵ Yna tynnodd y Lefiaid i lawr arch yr ARGLWYDD, a'r gist oedd gyda hi yn cynnwys y pethau aur, a'u rhoi ar y garreg fawr; a'r dydd hwnnw offrymodd gwu375?r Beth-semes boethoffrymau ac ebyrth i'r ARGLWYDD.

¹⁶And when the five lords of the Philistines had seen it, they returned to Ekron the same day.

¹⁶ Ac wedi i bum arglwydd y Philistiaid weld, aethant yn �l i Ecron yr un diwrnod.

¹⁷And these are the golden emerods which the Philistines returned for a trespass offering unto the LORD; for Ashdod one, for Gaza one, for Askelon one, for Gath one, for Ekron one;

¹⁷ Dyma restr y cornwydydd aur a anfonodd y Philistiaid i'r ARGLWYDD yn offrwm dros gamwedd: un dros Asdod, un dros Gasa, un dros Ascalon, un dros Gath ac un dros Ecron.

¹⁸And the golden mice, according to the number of all the cities of the Philistines belonging to the five lords, both of fenced cities, and of country villages, even unto the great stone of Abel, whereon they set down the ark of the LORD: which stone remaineth unto this day in the field of Joshua, the Bethshemite.

¹⁸ Hefyd llygod aur yn �l nifer holl ddinasoedd y Philistiaid a oedd dan y pum arglwydd, yn ddinas gaerog neu'n bentref agored. Saif y garreg fawr y gosodwyd arni arch yr ARGLWYDD yn dyst hyd y dydd hwn ym maes Josua o Beth-semes.

¹⁹And he smote the men of Bethshemesh, because they had looked into the ark of the LORD, even he smote of the people fifty thousand and threescore and ten men: and the people lamented, because the LORD had smitten many of the people with a great slaughter.

¹⁹ Trawyd rhai o wu375?r Beth-semes am iddynt edrych i mewn i arch yr ARGLWYDD. Trawyd deg a thrigain ohonynt, a galarodd y bobl oherwydd bod yr ARGLWYDD wedi gwneud lladdfa mor fawr yn eu plith.

²⁰And the men of Bethshemesh said, Who is able to stand before this holy LORD God? and to whom shall he go up from us?

²⁰ A dywedodd gwu375?r Beth-semes, "Pwy a fedr sefyll o flaen yr ARGLWYDD, y Duw sanctaidd hwn? At bwy yr � oddi wrthym ni?"

²¹And they sent messengers to the inhabitants of Kirjathjearim, saying, The Philistines have brought again the ark of the LORD; come ye down, and fetch it up to you.

²¹ Anfonasant negeswyr at drigolion Ciriath-jearim a dweud, "Anfonodd y Philistiaid arch yr ARGLWYDD yn �l, dewch i lawr i'w chyrchu."
