¹And I decided this to myself, not again to come in sorrow unto you,

¹ Penderfynais beidio � dod atoch unwaith eto mewn tristwch.

²for if I make you sorry, then who is he who is making me glad, except he who is made sorry by me?

² Oherwydd os wyf fi'n eich trist�u, pwy fydd yna i'm llonni i ond y sawl a wnaed yn drist gennyf fi?

³and I wrote to you this same thing, that having come, I may not have sorrow from them of whom it behoved me to have joy, having confidence in you all, that my joy is of you all,

³ Ac ysgrifennais y llythyr hwnnw rhag imi ddod atoch, a chael tristwch gan y rhai a ddylai roi llawenydd imi. Y mae gennyf hyder amdanoch chwi oll, fod fy llawenydd i yn llawenydd i chwithau i gyd.

⁴for out of much tribulation and pressure of heart I wrote to you through many tears, not that ye might be made sorry, but that ye might know the love that I have more abundantly toward you.

⁴ Oherwydd ysgrifennais atoch o ganol gorthrymder mawr a gofid calon, ac mewn dagrau lawer, nid i'ch trist�u chwi ond er mwyn ichwi wybod mor helaeth yw'r cariad sydd gennyf tuag atoch.

⁵And if any one hath caused sorrow, he hath not caused sorrow to me, but in part, that I may not burden you all;

⁵ Os yw rhywun wedi peri tristwch, nid i mi y gwnaeth hynny, ond i chwi i gyd � i raddau, beth bynnag, rhag i mi or-ddweud.

⁶sufficient to such a one is this punishment, that [is] by the more part,

⁶ Digon i'r fath un y gosb hon a osodwyd arno gan y mwyafrif,

⁷so that, on the contrary, [it is] rather for you to forgive and to comfort, lest by over abundant sorrow such a one may be swallowed up;

⁷ a'ch gwaith chwi bellach yw maddau iddo a'i ddiddanu, rhag iddo gael ei lethu gan ormod o dristwch.

⁸wherefore, I call upon you to confirm love to him,

⁸ Am hynny yr wyf yn eich cymell i adfer eich cariad tuag ato.

⁹for, for this also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether in regard to all things ye are obedient.

⁹ Oherwydd f'amcan wrth ysgrifennu oedd eich gosod dan brawf, i weld a ydych yn ufudd ym mhob peth.

¹⁰And to whom ye forgive anything — I also; for I also, if I have forgiven anything, to whom I have forgiven [it], because of you — in the person of Christ — [I forgive it,]

¹⁰ Y sawl yr ydych chwi'n maddau rhywbeth iddo, yr wyf fi'n maddau iddo hefyd. A'r hyn yr wyf fi wedi ei faddau, os oedd gennyf rywbeth i'w faddau, fe'i maddeuais er eich mwyn chwi yng ngolwg Crist,

¹¹that we may not be over-reached by the Adversary, for of his devices we are not ignorant.

¹¹ rhag i Satan gael mantais arnom, oherwydd fe wyddom yn dda am ei ddichellion ef.

¹²And having come to Troas for the good news of the Christ, and a door to me having been opened in the Lord,

¹² Pan ddeuthum i Troas i bregethu Efengyl Crist, er bod drws wedi ei agor i'm gwaith yn yr Arglwydd,

¹³I have not had rest to my spirit, on my not finding Titus my brother, but having taken leave of them, I went forth to Macedonia;

¹³ ni chefais lonydd i'm hysbryd am na ddeuthum o hyd i'm brawd Titus. Felly cenais yn iach iddynt, a chychwyn am Facedonia.

¹⁴and to God [are] thanks, who at all times is leading us in triumph in the Christ, and the fragrance of His knowledge He is manifesting through us in every place,

¹⁴ Ond i Dduw y bo'r diolch, sydd bob amser yn ein harwain ni yng Nghrist yng ngorymdaith ei fuddugoliaeth ef, ac sydd ym mhob man, trwom ni, yn taenu ar led bersawr yr adnabyddiaeth ohono.

¹⁵because of Christ a sweet fragrance we are to God, in those being saved, and in those being lost;

¹⁵ Canys perarogl Crist ydym ni i Dduw, i'r rhai sydd ar lwybr iachawdwriaeth ac i'r rhai sydd ar lwybr colledigaeth;

¹⁶to the one, indeed, a fragrance of death to death, and to the other, a fragrance of life to life; and for these things who is sufficient?

¹⁶ i'r naill, arogl marwol yn arwain i farwolaeth; i'r lleill, persawr bywiol yn arwain i fywyd. Pwy sydd ddigonol i'r gwaith hwn?

¹⁷for we are not as the many, adulterating the word of God, but as of sincerity — but as of God; in the presence of God, in Christ we do speak.

¹⁷ Oherwydd nid pedlera gair Duw yr ydym ni fel y gwna cynifer, ond llefaru fel dynion didwyll, fel cenhadon Duw, a hynny yng ngu373?ydd Duw, yng Nghrist.
