¹Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem one and thirty years.

¹ Wyth mlwydd oed oedd Joseia pan ddaeth yn frenin, a theyrnasodd am dri deg ac un o flynyddoedd yn Jerwsalem.

²And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the ways of David his father, and declined neither to the right hand, nor to the left.

² Gwnaeth yr hyn oedd uniawn yng ngolwg yr ARGLWYDD, a dilyn llwybrau ei dad Dafydd yn gwbl ddiwyro.

³For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was yet young, he began to seek after the God of David his father: and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem from the high places, and the groves, and the carved images, and the molten images.

³ Yn yr wythfed flwyddyn o'i deyrnasiad, ac yntau'n dal yn llanc ifanc, dechreuodd geisio Duw ei dad Dafydd. Yn y ddeuddegfed flwyddyn, dechreuodd buro Jwda a Jerwsalem o'r uchelfeydd, y pyst Asera, y cerfddelwau a'r delwau tawdd.

⁴And they brake down the altars of Baalim in his presence; and the images, that were on high above them, he cut down; and the groves, and the carved images, and the molten images, he brake in pieces, and made dust of them, and strewed it upon the graves of them that had sacrificed unto them.

⁴ Gorchmynnodd ddinistrio allorau'r Baalim, a thorrodd i lawr yr allorau arogldarth a oedd uwch eu pen; drylliodd yn chwilfriw y pyst Asera, y cerfddelwau a'r delwau tawdd; malodd hwy'n yfflon a thaenu eu llwch hyd wyneb beddau y rhai a fu'n aberthu iddynt.

⁵And he burnt the bones of the priests upon their altars, and cleansed Judah and Jerusalem.

⁵ Llosgodd esgyrn yr offeiriaid ar eu hallorau, a phurodd Jwda a Jerwsalem.

⁶And so did he in the cities of Manasseh, and Ephraim, and Simeon, even unto Naphtali, with their mattocks round about.

⁶ Gwnaeth yr un peth yn ninasoedd Manasse, Effraim a Simeon, hyd at Nafftali, ac yn yr adfeilion o'u cwmpas,

⁷And when he had broken down the altars and the groves, and had beaten the graven images into powder, and cut down all the idols throughout all the land of Israel, he returned to Jerusalem.

⁷ sef dryllio'r allorau a'r pyst Asera, a malu'r cerfluniau'n yfflon a dinistrio'r holl arogldarth trwy Israel gyfan; yna dychwelodd i Jerwsalem.

⁸Now in the eighteenth year of his reign, when he had purged the land, and the house, he sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, and Maaseiah the governor of the city, and Joah the son of Joahaz the recorder, to repair the house of the LORD his God.

⁸ Yn y ddeunawfed flwyddyn o'i deyrnasiad, ar �l puro'r wlad a'r deml, anfonodd Saffan fab Asaleia, Maaseia rheolwr y ddinas a Joa fab Joahas y cofiadur i atgyweirio tu375?'r ARGLWYDD ei Dduw.

⁹And when they came to Hilkiah the high priest, they delivered the money that was brought into the house of God, which the Levites that kept the doors had gathered of the hand of Manasseh and Ephraim, and of all the remnant of Israel, and of all Judah and Benjamin; and they returned to Jerusalem.

⁹ Pan ddaethant at Hilceia yr archoffeiriad rhoesant iddo'r arian a ddygwyd i du375? Dduw ac a gasglodd y Lefiaid, ceidwaid y drws, oddi wrth Manasse ac Effraim a gweddill Israel, ac o holl Jwda, Benjamin a thrigolion Jerwsalem.

¹⁰And they put it in the hand of the workmen that had the oversight of the house of the LORD, and they gave it to the workmen that wrought in the house of the LORD, to repair and amend the house:

¹⁰ Yna rhoddwyd ef i'r goruchwylwyr oedd yn gofalu am du375?'r ARGLWYDD; rhoddasant hwythau ef i'r gweithwyr oedd yn gweithio yn nhu375?'r ARGLWYDD ac yn atgyweirio'i agennau.

¹¹Even to the artificers and builders gave they it, to buy hewn stone, and timber for couplings, and to floor the houses which the kings of Judah had destroyed.

¹¹ Fe'i rhoesant hefyd i'r seiri a'r adeiladwyr i brynu cerrig nadd a choed ar gyfer distiau a thrawstiau i'r adeiladau yr oedd brenhinoedd Jwda wedi eu hesgeuluso.

¹²And the men did the work faithfully: and the overseers of them were Jahath and Obadiah, the Levites, of the sons of Merari; and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the sons of the Kohathites, to set it forward; and other of the Levites, all that could skill of instruments of music.

¹² Yr oedd y dynion yn gweithio'n ddiwyd dan oruchwyliaeth y Lefiaid oedd yn eu hannog, sef Jahath ac Obadeia o feibion Merari, a Sechareia a Mesulam o feibion y Cohathiaid. Ac yr oedd y Lefiaid, pob un a fedrai ganu offeryn cerdd,

¹³Also they were over the bearers of burdens, and were overseers of all that wrought the work in any manner of service: and of the Levites there were scribes, and officers, and porters.

¹³ hefyd yn gofalu am y cludwyr ac yn arolygu pob gweithiwr, beth bynnag oedd ei waith. Yr oedd rhai o'r Lefiaid hefyd yn ysgrifenyddion, swyddogion a phorthorion.

¹⁴And when they brought out the money that was brought into the house of the LORD, Hilkiah the priest found a book of the law of the LORD given by Moses.

¹⁴ Wrth iddynt ddwyn allan yr arian a ddygwyd i du375?'r ARGLWYDD, darganfu Hilceia'r offeiriad lyfr cyfraith yr ARGLWYDD, a roddwyd trwy Moses.

¹⁵And Hilkiah answered and said to Shaphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of the LORD. And Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan.

¹⁵ Dywedodd Hilceia wrth Saffan yr ysgrifennydd, "Cefais lyfr y gyfraith yn nhu375?'r ARGLWYDD." A rhoddodd y llyfr i Saffan.

¹⁶And Shaphan carried the book to the king, and brought the king word back again, saying, All that was committed to thy servants, they do it.

¹⁶ Aeth Saffan �'r llyfr at y brenin a'r un pryd rhoi adroddiad iddo a dweud, "Y mae dy weision yn gwneud y cwbl a orchmynnwyd iddynt.

¹⁷And they have gathered together the money that was found in the house of the LORD, and have delivered it into the hand of the overseers, and to the hand of the workmen.

¹⁷ Y maent wedi cyfrif yr arian oedd yn nhu375?'r ARGLWYDD ac wedi ei drosglwyddo i'r ymgymerwyr a'r gweithwyr."

¹⁸Then Shaphan the scribe told the king, saying, Hilkiah the priest hath given me a book. And Shaphan read it before the king.

¹⁸ Ac ychwanegodd Saffan yr ysgrifennydd wrth y brenin, "Rhoddodd Hilceia'r offeiriad lyfr imi"; a darllenodd Saffan ef i'r brenin.

¹⁹And it came to pass, when the king had heard the words of the law, that he rent his clothes.

¹⁹ Pan glywodd y brenin gynnwys y gyfraith, rhwygodd ei ddillad,

²⁰And the king commanded Hilkiah, and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Abdon the son of Micah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah a servant of the king's, saying,

²⁰ a gorchmynnodd i Hilceia ac i Ahicam fab Saffan, ac i Abdon fab Nicha, ac i Saffan yr ysgrifennydd ac i Asaia gwas y brenin,

²¹Go, enquire of the LORD for me, and for them that are left in Israel and in Judah, concerning the words of the book that is found: for great is the wrath of the LORD that is poured out upon us, because our fathers have not kept the word of the LORD, to do after all that is written in this book.

²¹ "Ewch i ymgynghori �'r ARGLWYDD ar fy rhan, ac ar ran pawb sydd ar �l yn Israel a Jwda, ynglu375?n � chynnwys y llyfr a ddaeth i'r golwg; oherwydd y mae llid yr ARGLWYDD yn fawr, ac wedi ei ennyn yn ein herbyn am na chadwodd ein hynafiaid air yr ARGLWYDD na gwneud yr hyn a ysgrifennwyd yn y llyfr hwn."

²²And Hilkiah, and they that the king had appointed, went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvath, the son of Hasrah, keeper of the wardrobe; (now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the college:) and they spake to her to that effect.

²² Yna aeth Hilceia, a'r rhai a orchmynnodd y brenin, at y broffwydes Hulda, gwraig Salum fab Ticfa, fab Hasra, ceidwad y gwisgoedd. Yr oedd hi'n byw yn yr Ail Barth yn Jerwsalem; ac wedi iddynt ddweud eu neges,

²³And she answered them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Tell ye the man that sent you to me,

²³ dywedodd hi wrthynt, "Fel hyn y dywed yr ARGLWYDD, Duw Israel. Dywedwch wrth y gu373?r a'ch anfonodd ataf,

²⁴Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof, even all the curses that are written in the book which they have read before the king of Judah:

²⁴ 'Fel hyn y dywed yr ARGLWYDD: Yr wyf yn dwyn drwg ar y lle hwn a'i drigolion, sef yr holl felltithion sy'n ysgrifenedig yn y llyfr a ddarllenwyd yng ngu373?ydd brenin Jwda,

²⁵Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands; therefore my wrath shall be poured out upon this place, and shall not be quenched.

²⁵ am eu bod wedi fy ngwrthod ac wedi arogldarthu i dduwiau eraill, i'm digio ym mhopeth a wn�nt; y mae fy nig wedi ei ennyn yn erbyn y lle hwn, ac nis diffoddir.'

²⁶And as for the king of Judah, who sent you to enquire of the LORD, so shall ye say unto him, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel concerning the words which thou hast heard;

²⁶ Dyma a ddywedwch wrth frenin Jwda, a'ch anfonodd i ymgynghori �'r ARGLWYDD: 'Fel hyn y dywed yr ARGLWYDD, Duw Israel, ynglu375?n �'r geiriau a glywaist:

²⁷Because thine heart was tender, and thou didst humble thyself before God, when thou heardest his words against this place, and against the inhabitants thereof, and humbledst thyself before me, and didst rend thy clothes, and weep before me; I have even heard thee also, saith the LORD.

²⁷ Am i'th galon dyneru ac iti ymostwng o flaen Duw pan glywaist ei eiriau am y lle hwn a'i drigolion, am iti ymostwng ac wylo o'i flaen, a rhwygo dy ddillad, yr wyf finnau wedi gwrando, medd yr ARGLWYDD.

²⁸Behold, I will gather thee to thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered to thy grave in peace, neither shall thine eyes see all the evil that I will bring upon this place, and upon the inhabitants of the same. So they brought the king word again.

²⁸ Am hynny pan fyddi farw, dygir di i'r bedd mewn heddwch, ac ni w�l dy lygaid yr holl ddrwg a ddygaf ar y lle hwn a'i drigolion.'" Dygasant hwythau'r ateb i'r brenin.

²⁹Then the king sent and gathered together all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem.

²⁹ Yna anfonodd y brenin a chasglu ynghyd holl henuriaid Jwda a Jerwsalem;

³⁰And the king went up into the house of the LORD, and all the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the priests, and the Levites, and all the people, great and small: and he read in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant that was found in the house of the LORD.

³⁰ ac aeth i fyny i du375?'r ARGLWYDD, a holl bobl Jwda a thrigolion Jerwsalem gydag ef, a hefyd yr offeiriaid a'r Lefiaid a phawb o'r bobl, o'r lleiaf hyd y mwyaf. Yna darllenodd yn eu clyw holl gynnwys y llyfr cyfamod a gaed yn nhu375?'r ARGLWYDD.

³¹And the king stood in his place, and made a covenant before the LORD, to walk after the LORD, and to keep his commandments, and his testimonies, and his statutes, with all his heart, and with all his soul, to perform the words of the covenant which are written in this book.

³¹ Safodd y brenin wrth ei golofn, a gwnaeth gyfamod o flaen yr ARGLWYDD i ddilyn yr ARGLWYDD ac i gadw ei orchmynion a'i dystiolaethau a'i ddeddfau �'i holl galon ac �'i holl enaid, ac i gyflawni geiriau'r cyfamod a ysgrifennwyd yn y llyfr hwn.

³²And he caused all that were present in Jerusalem and Benjamin to stand to it. And the inhabitants of Jerusalem did according to the covenant of God, the God of their fathers.

³² Gwnaeth i bawb oedd yn byw yn Jerwsalem a Benjamin gadw'r cyfamod. Yna cadwodd trigolion Jerwsalem gyfamod Duw, Duw eu hynafiaid.

³³And Josiah took away all the abominations out of all the countries that pertained to the children of Israel, and made all that were present in Israel to serve, even to serve the LORD their God. And all his days they departed not from following the LORD, the God of their fathers.

³³ Felly tynnodd Joseia ymaith bob ffieidd�dra o'r holl diriogaeth oedd yn perthyn i'r Israeliaid, a gwnaeth i bawb oedd yn byw yn Israel wasanaethu'r ARGLWYDD eu Duw. Yn ei gyfnod ef ni throesant oddi ar �l yr ARGLWYDD, Duw eu hynafiaid.
