¹Now in the twenty and fourth day of this month the children of Israel were assembled with fasting, and with sackclothes, and earth upon them.

¹ Ar y pedwerydd ar hugain o'r mis hwn ymgasglodd yr Israeliaid i ymprydio, gan wisgo sachliain a rhoi pridd ar eu pennau.

²And the seed of Israel separated themselves from all strangers, and stood and confessed their sins, and the iniquities of their fathers.

² Ymneilltuodd y rhai oedd o linach Israel oddi wrth bob dieithryn, a sefyll a chyffesu eu pechodau a chamweddau eu hynafiaid.

³And they stood up in their place, and read in the book of the law of the LORD their God one fourth part of the day; and another fourth part they confessed, and worshipped the LORD their God.

³ Buont yn sefyll yn eu lle am deirawr yn darllen o lyfr cyfraith yr ARGLWYDD eu Duw, ac am deirawr arall yn cyffesu ac yn ymgrymu i'r ARGLWYDD eu Duw.

⁴Then stood up upon the stairs, of the Levites, Jeshua, and Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, and Chenani, and cried with a loud voice unto the LORD their God.

⁴ Safodd Jesua, Bani, Cadmiel, Sebaneia, Bunni, Serebeia, Bani a Chenani ar lwyfan y Lefiaid, a galw'n uchel ar yr ARGLWYDD eu Duw.

⁵Then the Levites, Jeshua, and Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabniah, Sherebiah, Hodijah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah, said, Stand up and bless the LORD your God for ever and ever: and blessed be thy glorious name, which is exalted above all blessing and praise.

⁵ A dywedodd y Lefiaid, hynny yw Jesua, Cadmiel, Bani, Hasabneia, Serebeia, Hodeia, Sebaneia a Pethaheia, "Codwch, bendithiwch yr ARGLWYDD eich Duw o dragwyddoldeb i dragwyddoldeb: Bendithier dy enw gogoneddus sy'n ddyrchafedig goruwch pob bendith a moliant.

⁶Thou, even thou, art LORD alone; thou hast made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth, and all things that are therein, the seas, and all that is therein, and thou preservest them all; and the host of heaven worshippeth thee.

⁶ Ti yn unig wyt ARGLWYDD. Ti a wnaeth y nefoedd, nef y nefoedd a'i holl luoedd, y ddaear a'r cwbl sydd arni, y moroedd a'r hyn oll sydd ynddynt; ti sy'n rhoi bwyd iddynt i gyd, ac i ti yr ymgryma llu'r nefoedd.

⁷Thou art the LORD the God, who didst choose Abram, and broughtest him forth out of Ur of the Chaldees, and gavest him the name of Abraham;

⁷ Ti yw yr ARGLWYDD Dduw, ti a ddewisodd Abram a'i dywys o Ur y Caldeaid, a rhoi iddo'r enw Abraham;

⁸And foundest his heart faithful before thee, and madest a covenant with him to give the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Jebusites, and the Girgashites, to give it, I say, to his seed, and hast performed thy words; for thou art righteous:

⁸ fe'i cefaist yn ffyddlon i ti, a gwnaethost gyfamod ag ef, i roi i'w ddisgynyddion wlad y Canaaneaid, yr Hethiaid, yr Amoriaid, y Peresiaid, y Jebusiaid a'r Girgasiaid. Ac fe gedwaist dy air, oherwydd cyfiawn wyt ti.

⁹And didst see the affliction of our fathers in Egypt, and heardest their cry by the Red sea;

⁹ "Fe welaist gystudd ein pobl yn yr Aifft, a gwrandewaist ar eu cri wrth y M�r Coch.

¹⁰And shewedst signs and wonders upon Pharaoh, and on all his servants, and on all the people of his land: for thou knewest that they dealt proudly against them. So didst thou get thee a name, as it is this day.

¹⁰ Gwnaethost arwyddion a rhyfeddodau yn erbyn Pharo a'i holl weision a holl drigolion ei wlad, am dy fod yn gwybod iddynt ymfalch�o yn eu herbyn; a gwnaethost enw i ti dy hun sy'n parhau hyd heddiw.

¹¹And thou didst divide the sea before them, so that they went through the midst of the sea on the dry land; and their persecutors thou threwest into the deeps, as a stone into the mighty waters.

¹¹ Holltaist y m�r o'u blaen, ac aethant drwyddo ar dir sych. Teflaist eu herlidwyr i'r dyfnder, fel carreg i ddyfroedd geirwon.

¹²Moreover thou leddest them in the day by a cloudy pillar; and in the night by a pillar of fire, to give them light in the way wherein they should go.

¹² Arweiniaist hwy � cholofn gwmwl liw dydd, a liw nos � cholofn d�n, er mwyn goleuo'r ffordd a dramwyent.

¹³Thou camest down also upon mount Sinai, and spakest with them from heaven, and gavest them right judgments, and true laws, good statutes and commandments:

¹³ Daethost i lawr ar Fynydd Sinai, siaredaist � hwy o'r nefoedd. Rhoddaist iddynt farnau cyfiawn a chyfreithiau gwir a deddfau a gorchmynion da.

¹⁴And madest known unto them thy holy sabbath, and commandedst them precepts, statutes, and laws, by the hand of Moses thy servant:

¹⁴ Dywedaist wrthynt am dy Saboth sanctaidd, a thrwy Moses dy was rhoddaist iddynt orchmynion a deddfau a chyfraith.

¹⁵And gavest them bread from heaven for their hunger, and broughtest forth water for them out of the rock for their thirst, and promisedst them that they should go in to possess the land which thou hadst sworn to give them.

¹⁵ Yn eu newyn rhoddaist iddynt fara o'r nefoedd, a thynnu du373?r o'r graig iddynt yn eu syched. Dywedaist wrthynt am fynd i feddiannu'r wlad y tyngaist ti i'w rhoi iddynt.

¹⁶But they and our fathers dealt proudly, and hardened their necks, and hearkened not to thy commandments,

¹⁶ "Ond aethant hwy, ein hynafiaid, yn falch ac yn ystyfnig, a gwrthod gwrando ar dy orchmynion.

¹⁷And refused to obey, neither were mindful of thy wonders that thou didst among them; but hardened their necks, and in their rebellion appointed a captain to return to their bondage: but thou art a God ready to pardon, gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and forsookest them not.

¹⁷ Gwrthodasant wrando, ac nid oeddent yn cofio dy ryfeddodau a wnaethost iddynt. Aethant yn ystyfnig a dewis arweinydd er mwyn dychwelyd i'w caethiwed yn yr Aifft. Ond yr wyt ti'n Dduw sy'n maddau, yn raslon a thrugarog, araf i ddigio a llawn ffyddlondeb, ac ni wrthodaist hwy.

¹⁸Yea, when they had made them a molten calf, and said, This is thy God that brought thee up out of Egypt, and had wrought great provocations;

¹⁸ Hefyd, pan wnaethant lo tawdd a dweud, 'Dyma dy Dduw a'th ddygodd i fyny o'r Aifft', a chablu'n ddirfawr,

¹⁹Yet thou in thy manifold mercies forsookest them not in the wilderness: the pillar of the cloud departed not from them by day, to lead them in the way; neither the pillar of fire by night, to shew them light, and the way wherein they should go.

¹⁹ yn dy drugaredd fawr ni chefnaist arnynt yn yr anialwch. Ni chiliodd oddi wrthynt y golofn gwmwl a'u tywysai ar hyd y ffordd liw dydd, na'r golofn d�n liw nos, a oleuai'r ffordd a dramwyent.

²⁰Thou gavest also thy good spirit to instruct them, and withheldest not thy manna from their mouth, and gavest them water for their thirst.

²⁰ Rhoddaist dy ysbryd daionus i'w cyfarwyddo; nid ateliaist dy fanna rhagddynt; rhoddaist iddynt ddu373?r i dorri eu syched.

²¹Yea, forty years didst thou sustain them in the wilderness, so that they lacked nothing; their clothes waxed not old, and their feet swelled not.

²¹ Am ddeugain mlynedd buost yn eu cynnal yn yr anialwch heb fod arnynt eisiau dim; nid oedd eu dillad yn treulio na'u traed yn chwyddo.

²²Moreover thou gavest them kingdoms and nations, and didst divide them into corners: so they possessed the land of Sihon, and the land of the king of Heshbon, and the land of Og king of Bashan.

²² "Rhoddaist iddynt deyrnasoedd a chenhedloedd, a rhoi cyfran iddynt ymhob congl. Cawsant feddiant o wlad Sihon brenin Hesbon a gwlad Og brenin Basan.

²³Their children also multipliedst thou as the stars of heaven, and broughtest them into the land, concerning which thou hadst promised to their fathers, that they should go in to possess it.

²³ Gwnaethost eu plant mor niferus � s�r y nefoedd, a'u harwain i'r wlad y dywedaist wrth eu hynafiaid am fynd iddi i'w meddiannu.

²⁴So the children went in and possessed the land, and thou subduedst before them the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, and gavest them into their hands, with their kings, and the people of the land, that they might do with them as they would.

²⁴ Felly fe aeth eu plant a meddiannu'r wlad; darostyngaist tithau drigolion y wlad, y Canaaneaid, o'u blaen, a rhoi yn eu llaw eu brenhinoedd a phobl y wlad, iddynt wneud fel y mynnent � hwy.

²⁵And they took strong cities, and a fat land, and possessed houses full of all goods, wells digged, vineyards, and oliveyards, and fruit trees in abundance: so they did eat, and were filled, and became fat, and delighted themselves in thy great goodness.

²⁵ Enillasant ddinasoedd cedyrn a thir ffrwythlon, a meddiannu tai yn llawn o bethau daionus, pydewau wedi eu cloddio, gwinllannoedd a gerddi olewydd a llawer o goed ffrwythau; bwytasant a chael eu digoni a mynd yn raenus, a mwynhau dy ddaioni mawr.

²⁶Nevertheless they were disobedient, and rebelled against thee, and cast thy law behind their backs, and slew thy prophets which testified against them to turn them to thee, and they wrought great provocations.

²⁶ Ond fe aethant yn anufudd a gwrthryfela yn dy erbyn. Troesant eu cefnau ar dy gyfraith, a lladd dy broffwydi oedd wedi eu rhybuddio i ddychwelyd atat, a chablu'n ddirfawr.

²⁷Therefore thou deliveredst them into the hand of their enemies, who vexed them: and in the time of their trouble, when they cried unto thee, thou heardest them from heaven; and according to thy manifold mercies thou gavest them saviours, who saved them out of the hand of their enemies.

²⁷ Felly rhoddaist hwy yn llaw eu gorthrymwyr, a chawsant eu gorthrymu. Yn eu cyfyngder gwaeddasant arnat, ac fe wrandewaist tithau o'r nefoedd; yn dy drugaredd fawr rhoddaist achubwyr iddynt i'w gwaredu o law eu gorthrymwyr.

²⁸But after they had rest, they did evil again before thee: therefore leftest thou them in the land of their enemies, so that they had the dominion over them: yet when they returned, and cried unto thee, thou heardest them from heaven; and many times didst thou deliver them according to thy mercies;

²⁸ Ond pan gawsant lonydd, dechreusant eto wneud drwg yn dy olwg. Gadewaist hwy i'w gelynion, a chawsant eu mathru. Unwaith eto galwasant arnat, a gwrandewaist tithau o'r nefoedd, a'u hachub lawer gwaith yn dy drugaredd.

²⁹And testifiedst against them, that thou mightest bring them again unto thy law: yet they dealt proudly, and hearkened not unto thy commandments, but sinned against thy judgments, (which if a man do, he shall live in them;) and withdrew the shoulder, and hardened their neck, and would not hear.

²⁹ Fe'u rhybuddiaist i ddychwelyd at dy gyfraith, ond aethant yn falch a gwrthod ufuddhau i'th orchmynion; pechasant yn erbyn dy farnau sydd yn rhoi bywyd i'r un sy'n eu cadw. Troesant eu cefnau'n ystyfnig, a mynd yn wargaled a gwrthod ufuddhau.

³⁰Yet many years didst thou forbear them, and testifiedst against them by thy spirit in thy prophets: yet would they not give ear: therefore gavest thou them into the hand of the people of the lands.

³⁰ Buost yn amyneddgar � hwy am flynyddoedd lawer, a'u rhybuddio �'th ysbryd trwy dy broffwydi, ond ni wrandawsant; am hynny rhoddaist hwy yn nwylo pobloedd estron.

³¹Nevertheless for thy great mercies' sake thou didst not utterly consume them, nor forsake them; for thou art a gracious and merciful God.

³¹ Ond yn dy drugaredd fawr ni ddifethaist hwy yn llwyr na'u gadael, oherwydd Duw graslon a thrugarog wyt ti.

³²Now therefore, our God, the great, the mighty, and the terrible God, who keepest covenant and mercy, let not all the trouble seem little before thee, that hath come upon us, on our kings, on our princes, and on our priests, and on our prophets, and on our fathers, and on all thy people, since the time of the kings of Assyria unto this day.

³² "Yn awr, O ein Duw, y Duw mawr, cryf ac ofnadwy, sy'n cadw cyfamod a thrugaredd, paid � diystyru'r holl drybini a ddaeth arnom � ar ein brenhinoedd a'n tywysogion, ein hoffeiriaid a'n proffwydi a'n hynafiaid, ac ar dy holl bobl � o gyfnod brenhinoedd Asyria hyd y dydd hwn.

³³Howbeit thou art just in all that is brought upon us; for thou hast done right, but we have done wickedly:

³³ Buost ti yn gyfiawn yn yr hyn oll a ddigwyddodd i ni; buost ti yn ffyddlon, ond buom ni yn ddrwg.

³⁴Neither have our kings, our princes, our priests, nor our fathers, kept thy law, nor hearkened unto thy commandments and thy testimonies, wherewith thou didst testify against them.

³⁴ Ni chadwodd ein brenhinoedd na'n tywysogion, ein hoffeiriaid na'n hynafiaid, dy gyfraith; ni wrandawsant ar dy orchmynion, nac ar y rhybuddion a roddaist iddynt.

³⁵For they have not served thee in their kingdom, and in thy great goodness that thou gavest them, and in the large and fat land which thou gavest before them, neither turned they from their wicked works.

³⁵ Hyd yn oed yn eu teyrnas eu hunain ynghanol y daioni mawr a ddangosaist tuag atynt, yn y wlad eang a thoreithiog a roddaist iddynt, gwrthodasant dy wasanaethu a throi oddi wrth eu drwgweithredoedd.

³⁶Behold, we are servants this day, and for the land that thou gavest unto our fathers to eat the fruit thereof and the good thereof, behold, we are servants in it:

³⁶ Dyma ni heddiw yn gaethweision, caethweision yn y wlad a roddaist i'n hynafiaid i fwyta'i ffrwyth a'i braster.

³⁷And it yieldeth much increase unto the kings whom thou hast set over us because of our sins: also they have dominion over our bodies, and over our cattle, at their pleasure, and we are in great distress.

³⁷ Y mae ei holl gynnyrch yn mynd i'r brenhinoedd a osodaist arnom am ein pechodau. Y maent yn rheoli ein cyrff, ac yn gwneud fel y mynnant �'n hanifeiliaid; yr ydym ni mewn helbul mawr."

³⁸And because of all this we make a sure covenant, and write it; and our princes, Levites, and priests, seal unto it.

³⁸ Oherwydd hyn oll yr ydym yn gwneud ymrwymiad ysgrifenedig, ac y mae ein tywysogion, ein Lefiaid a'n hoffeiriaid, yn ei selio.
