¹And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

¹ Daeth gair yr ARGLWYDD ataf a dweud,

²Son of man, put forth a riddle, and speak a parable unto the house of Israel;

² "Fab dyn, gosod bos a llefara ddameg wrth du375? Israel,

³And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; A great eagle with great wings, longwinged, full of feathers, which had divers colours, came unto Lebanon, and took the highest branch of the cedar:

³ a dywed, 'Fel hyn y dywed yr Arglwydd DDUW: Daeth i Lebanon eryr mawr, a chanddo adenydd cryfion, a'i esgyll yn hirion ac yn llawn plu amryliw. Cymerodd frigyn uchaf y gedrwydden,

⁴He cropped off the top of his young twigs, and carried it into a land of traffick; he set it in a city of merchants.

⁴ a thorrodd flaen uchaf y brigyn a'i gymryd i wlad o fasnachwyr a'i blannu yn ninas marsiand�wyr.

⁵He took also of the seed of the land, and planted it in a fruitful field; he placed it by great waters, and set it as a willow tree.

⁵ Cymerodd hefyd beth o had y tir a'i roi mewn daear ffrwythlon; plannodd ef fel helygen wrth ddigon o ddu373?r.

⁶And it grew, and became a spreading vine of low stature, whose branches turned toward him, and the roots thereof were under him: so it became a vine, and brought forth branches, and shot forth sprigs.

⁶ Blagurodd a daeth yn winwydden, �'i thyfiant yn lledu'n isel, ei changhennau'n troi ato ef, ond ei gwreiddiau'n parhau odani. Felly daeth yn winwydden, gan dyfu canghennau a bwrw allan frigau.

⁷There was also another great eagle with great wings and many feathers: and, behold, this vine did bend her roots toward him, and shot forth her branches toward him, that he might water it by the furrows of her plantation.

⁷ Ond yr oedd eryr mawr arall, a chanddo adenydd cryfion a digon o blu, a throdd y winwydden hon ei gwreiddiau i'w gyfeiriad ef, ac o'r rhandir lle plannwyd hi anfonodd allan ganghennau ato ef i geisio du373?r.

⁸It was planted in a good soil by great waters, that it might bring forth branches, and that it might bear fruit, that it might be a goodly vine.

⁸ Fe'i trawsblannwyd mewn daear dda wrth ddigon o ddu373?r er mwyn iddi dyfu canghennau, cynhyrchu ffrwyth a dod yn winwydden odidog.'

⁹Say thou, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Shall it prosper? shall he not pull up the roots thereof, and cut off the fruit thereof, that it wither? it shall wither in all the leaves of her spring, even without great power or many people to pluck it up by the roots thereof.

⁹ Dywed, 'Fel hyn y dywed yr Arglwydd DDUW: A ffynna hi? Oni chodir ei gwreiddiau hi, a thynnu ei ffrwyth? Oni wywa ei thyfiant newydd hi yn llwyr, nes y gellir tynnu ymaith ei gwreiddiau heb fraich gref na llawer o bobl?

¹⁰Yea, behold, being planted, shall it prosper? shall it not utterly wither, when the east wind toucheth it? it shall wither in the furrows where it grew.

¹⁰ Os trawsblennir hi, a ffynna? Oni wywa'n llwyr, fel petai wedi ei tharo gan wynt y dwyrain � gwywo ar y rhandir lle bu'n tyfu?'"

¹¹Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

¹¹ Daeth gair yr ARGLWYDD ataf a dweud,

¹²Say now to the rebellious house, Know ye not what these things mean? tell them, Behold, the king of Babylon is come to Jerusalem, and hath taken the king thereof, and the princes thereof, and led them with him to Babylon;

¹² "Dywed wrth y tylwyth gwrthryfelgar hwn, 'Oni wyddoch beth a olyga hyn?' Dywed, 'Daeth brenin Babilon i Jerwsalem a chymryd ei brenin a'i thywysogion, a mynd � hwy gydag ef i Fabilon.

¹³And hath taken of the king's seed, and made a covenant with him, and hath taken an oath of him: he hath also taken the mighty of the land:

¹³ Yna cymerodd un o'r teulu brenhinol, a gwneud cytundeb ag ef a'i osod dan lw. Aeth ag arweinwyr y wlad ymaith,

¹⁴That the kingdom might be base, that it might not lift itself up, but that by keeping of his covenant it might stand.

¹⁴ er mwyn darostwng y deyrnas, rhag iddi godi drachefn; ac ni allai sefyll ond trwy gadw cytundeb ag ef.

¹⁵But he rebelled against him in sending his ambassadors into Egypt, that they might give him horses and much people. Shall he prosper? shall he escape that doeth such things? or shall he break the covenant, and be delivered?

¹⁵ Ond gwrthryfelodd y brenin yn ei erbyn trwy anfon negeswyr i'r Aifft i geisio meirch a byddin fawr. A lwydda? A arbedir y sawl sy'n gwneud fel hyn? A all dorri'r cytundeb a chael ei arbed?

¹⁶As I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely in the place where the king dwelleth that made him king, whose oath he despised, and whose covenant he brake, even with him in the midst of Babylon he shall die.

¹⁶ Cyn wired �'m bod yn fyw, medd yr Arglwydd DDUW, bydd farw ym Mabilon, yng ngwlad y brenin a'i rhoes ar yr orsedd ac y diystyrodd ei lw ac y torrodd ei gytundeb.

¹⁷Neither shall Pharaoh with his mighty army and great company make for him in the war, by casting up mounts, and building forts, to cut off many persons:

¹⁷ Ni all Pharo gyda'i fyddin gref a'i lu mawr wneud dim drosto mewn rhyfel, pan godir esgynfa ac adeiladu gwarchglawdd i ladd llawer o bobl.

¹⁸Seeing he despised the oath by breaking the covenant, when, lo, he had given his hand, and hath done all these things, he shall not escape.

¹⁸ Diystyrodd y llw a thorri'r cytundeb; er iddo daro bargen, eto gwnaeth y pethau hyn, ac felly nis arbedir.

¹⁹Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; As I live, surely mine oath that he hath despised, and my covenant that he hath broken, even it will I recompense upon his own head.

¹⁹ Am hynny, fel hyn y dywed yr Arglwydd DDUW: Cyn wired �'m bod yn fyw, ar ei ben ef ei hun y dygaf fy llw a ddiystyrodd a'm cytundeb a dorrodd.

²⁰And I will spread my net upon him, and he shall be taken in my snare, and I will bring him to Babylon, and will plead with him there for his trespass that he hath trespassed against me.

²⁰ Taenaf fy rhwyd drosto, ac fe'i delir yn fy magl; af ag ef i Fabilon a'i farnu yno am iddo fod yn anffyddlon i mi.

²¹And all his fugitives with all his bands shall fall by the sword, and they that remain shall be scattered toward all winds: and ye shall know that I the LORD have spoken it.

²¹ Lleddir �'r cleddyf holl wu375?r dethol ei fyddin, a gwasgerir y gweddill i'r pedwar gwynt. Yna byddwch yn gwybod mai myfi, yr ARGLWYDD, a lefarodd.

²²Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will also take of the highest branch of the high cedar, and will set it; I will crop off from the top of his young twigs a tender one, and will plant it upon an high mountain and eminent:

²² "'Fel hyn y dywed yr Arglwydd DDUW: Cymeraf finnau hefyd frigyn o ben y gedrwydden a'i blannu; torraf flagur tyner o'r blaenion a'i blannu ar fynydd mawr ac uchel.

²³In the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it: and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a goodly cedar: and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing; in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell.

²³ Ar fynydd-dir uchel Israel y plannaf ef; fe dyf ganghennau, a rhoi ffrwyth a dod yn gedrwydden odidog. Bydd adar o bob math yn nythu ynddo, ac yn clwydo yng nghysgod ei gangau.

²⁴And all the trees of the field shall know that I the LORD have brought down the high tree, have exalted the low tree, have dried up the green tree, and have made the dry tree to flourish: I the LORD have spoken and have done it.

²⁴ Bydd holl goed y maes yn gwybod mai myfi'r ARGLWYDD sy'n darostwng y goeden uchel ac yn codi'r goeden isel, yn sychu'r goeden iraidd ac yn bywioc�u'r goeden grin. Myfi, yr ARGLWYDD, a lefarodd, ac fe'i gwnaf.'"
