¹And there riseth after Abimelech, to save Israel, Tola son of Puah, son of Dodo, a man of Issachar, and he is dwelling in Shamir, in the hill-country of Ephraim,

¹ Ar �l Abimelech, yr un a gododd i waredu Israel oedd Tola fab Pua, fab Dodo, dyn o Issachar a oedd yn byw yn Samir ym mynydd-dir Effraim.

²and he judgeth Israel twenty and three years, and he dieth, and is buried in Shamir.

² Bu'n farnwr ar Israel am dair blynedd ar hugain; a phan fu farw, claddwyd ef yn Samir.

³And there riseth after him Jair the Gileadite, and he judgeth Israel twenty and two years,

³ Ar ei �l cododd Jair, brodor o Gilead. Bu'n farnwr ar Israel am ddwy flynedd ar hugain.

⁴and he hath thirty sons riding on thirty ass-colts, and they have thirty cities, (they call them Havoth-Jair unto this day), which [are] in the land of Gilead;

⁴ Yr oedd ganddo ddeg ar hugain o feibion a arferai farchogaeth ar ddeg ar hugain o asynnod; ac yr oedd ganddynt ddeg dinas ar hugain yn nhir Gilead; gelwir y rhain yn Hafoth-jair hyd heddiw.

⁵and Jair dieth, and is buried in Kamon.

⁵ Pan fu farw Jair, claddwyd ef yn Camon.

⁶And the sons of Israel add to do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, and serve the Baalim, and Ashtaroth, and the gods of Aram, and the gods of Zidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the Bene-Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines, and forsake Jehovah, and have not served Him;

⁶ Unwaith eto gwnaeth yr Israeliaid yr hyn oedd ddrwg yng ngolwg yr ARGLWYDD, ac addoli'r Baalim a'r Astaroth, a duwiau Syria, Sidon, Moab, yr Ammoniaid a'r Philistiaid; gwrthodasant yr ARGLWYDD a pheidio �'i wasanaethu.

⁷and the anger of Jehovah burneth against Israel, and He selleth them into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the Bene-Ammon,

⁷ Enynnodd llid yr ARGLWYDD yn erbyn Israel, a gwerthodd hwy i law'r Philistiaid a'r Ammoniaid.

⁸and they crush and oppress the sons of Israel in that year — eighteen years all the sons of Israel [who] are beyond the Jordan, in the land of the Amorite, which [is] in Gilead.

⁸ Ysigodd y rheini'r Israeliaid a'u gormesu y flwyddyn honno; ac am ddeunaw mlynedd buont yn gormesu'r holl Israeliaid y tu hwnt i'r Iorddonen, yn Gilead yng ngwlad yr Amoriaid.

⁹And the Bene-Ammon pass over the Jordan to fight also against Judah, and against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim, and Israel hath great distress.

⁹ Wedyn croesodd yr Ammoniaid dros yr Iorddonen i ryfela yn erbyn Jwda a Benjamin a thylwyth Effraim, a bu'n gyfyng iawn ar Israel.

¹⁰And the sons of Israel cry unto Jehovah, saying, `We have sinned against Thee, even because we have forsaken our God, and serve the Baalim.`

¹⁰ Yna galwodd yr Israeliaid ar yr ARGLWYDD, a dweud, "Yr ydym wedi pechu yn d'erbyn; yr ydym wedi gadael ein Duw ac addoli'r Baalim."

¹¹And Jehovah saith unto the sons of Israel, `[Have I] not [saved you] from the Egyptians, and from the Amorite, from the Bene-Ammon, and from the Philistines?

¹¹ Dywedodd yr ARGLWYDD wrth yr Israeliaid, "Pan ormeswyd chwi gan yr Eifftiaid, Amoriaid, Ammoniaid, Philistiaid,

¹²And the Zidonians, and Amalek, and Maon have oppressed you, and ye cry unto Me, and I save you out of their hand;

¹² Sidoniaid, Amaleciaid, a Midianiaid, galwasoch arnaf fi, a gwaredais chwi o'u gafael.

¹³and ye — ye have forsaken Me, and serve other gods, therefore I add not to save you.

¹³ Ond yr ydych wedi fy ngadael i a gwasanaethu duwiau eraill, ac am hynny nid wyf am eich gwaredu rhagor.

¹⁴Go and cry unto the gods on which ye have fixed; they — they save you in the time of your adversity.`

¹⁴ Ewch a galwch ar y duwiau yr ydych wedi eu dewis; bydded iddynt hwy eich gwaredu chwi yn awr eich cyfyngdra."

¹⁵And the sons of Israel say unto Jehovah, `We have sinned, do Thou to us according to all that is good in Thine eyes; only deliver us, we pray Thee, this day.`

¹⁵ Yna dywedodd yr Israeliaid wrth yr ARGLWYDD, "Yr ydym wedi pechu; gwna inni beth bynnag a weli'n dda, ond eto gwared ni y tro hwn."

¹⁶And they turn aside the gods of the stranger out of their midst, and serve Jehovah, and His soul is grieved with the misery of Israel.

¹⁶ Bwriasant y duwiau dieithr allan o'u plith, a gwasanaethu'r ARGLWYDD, ac ni allai yntau oddef adfyd Israel yn hwy.

¹⁷And the Bene-Ammon are called together, and encamp in Gilead, and the sons of Israel are gathered together, and encamp in Mizpah.

¹⁷ Pan alwodd yr Ammoniaid eu milwyr ynghyd a gwersyllu yn Gilead, ymgasglodd yr Israeliaid hefyd a gwersyllu yn Mispa.

¹⁸And the people — heads of Gilead — say one unto another, `Who [is] the man that doth begin to fight against the Bene-Ammon? he is for head to all inhabitants of Gilead.`

¹⁸ Dywedodd swyddogion byddin Gilead wrth ei gilydd, "Pwy bynnag fydd yn dechrau'r ymladd �'r Ammoniaid, ef fydd yn ben ar holl drigolion Gilead."
