¹And Satan stood up against Israel, and moved David to number Israel.

¹ Cododd Satan yn erbyn Israel ac annog Dafydd i gyfrif yr Israeliaid.

²And David said to Joab and to the princes of the people, Go, number Israel from Beer-sheba even to Dan; and bring me word, that I may know the sum of them.

² Felly dywedodd Dafydd wrth Joab a swyddogion y fyddin, "Ewch a chyf-rifwch Israel o Beerseba i Dan; yna dychwelwch ataf er mwyn i mi wybod eu nifer."

³And Joab said, Jehovah make his people a hundred times as many as they are: but, my lord the king, are they not all my lord's servants? why doth my lord require this thing? why will he be a cause of guilt unto Israel?

³ Dywedodd Joab, "Bydded i'r ARGLWYDD luosogi ei bobl ganwaith yr hyn ydynt. F'arglwydd frenin, onid gweision f'arglwydd ydynt i gyd? Pam y mae f'arglwydd yn gwneud ymholiad fel hyn? Pam y dylai camwedd ddod ar Israel?"

⁴Nevertheless the king's word prevailed against Joab. Wherefore Joab departed, and went throughout all Israel, and came to Jerusalem.

⁴ Ond yr oedd gair y brenin yn drech na Joab, ac fe aeth Joab allan a thramwyo trwy holl Israel, a dychwelodd i Jerwsalem. Yna rhodd-odd swm y cyfrifiad o'r bobl i Ddafydd:

⁵And Joab gave up the sum of the numbering of the people unto David. And all they of Israel were a thousand thousand and a hundred thousand men that drew sword: and Judah was four hundred threescore and ten thousand men that drew sword.

⁵ yr oedd yn Israel filiwn a chan mil o wu375?r a fedrai drin y cleddyf, ac yn Jwda bedwar cant saith deg o filoedd.

⁶But Levi and Benjamin counted he not among them; for the king's word was abominable to Joab.

⁶ Ond nid oedd Joab wedi cynnwys Lefi a Benjamin yn eu mysg am ei fod yn ffieiddio gorchymyn y brenin.

⁷And God was displeased with this thing; therefore he smote Israel.

⁷ Yr oedd hyn yn ddrwg yng ngolwg Duw, ac felly trawodd Israel.

⁸And David said unto God, I have sinned greatly, in that I have done this thing: but now, put away, I beseech thee, the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.

⁸ A dywedodd Dafydd wrth Dduw, "Pechais yn fawr trwy wneud hyn; am hynny maddau i'th was, oherwydd b�m yn ff�l iawn."

⁹And Jehovah spake unto Gad, David's seer, saying,

⁹ Daeth gair yr ARGLWYDD at Gad, gweledydd Dafydd, gan ddweud,

¹⁰Go and speak unto David, saying, Thus saith Jehovah, I offer thee three things: choose thee one of them, that I may do it unto thee.

¹⁰ "Dos a dywed wrth Ddafydd, 'Fel hyn y dywed yr ARGLWYDD: Yr wyf yn cynnig tri pheth iti; dewis di un ohonynt, ac fe'i gwnaf iti.'"

¹¹So Gad came to David, and said unto him, Thus saith Jehovah, Take which thou wilt:

¹¹ Daeth Gad at Ddafydd ac meddai wrtho, "Fel hyn y dywed yr ARGLWYDD:

¹²either three years of famine; or three months to be consumed before thy foes, while the sword of thine enemies overtaketh thee; or else three days the sword of Jehovah, even pestilence in the land, and the angel of Jehovah destroying throughout all the borders of Israel. Now therefore consider what answer I shall return to him that sent me.

¹² Dewis naill ai tair blynedd o newyn, neu dri mis o ffoi o flaen dy wrth-wynebwyr a chleddyf dy elynion yn dy oddiweddyd, neu dridiau o haint yn y wlad, sef cleddyf yr ARGLWYDD, ac angel yr ARGLWYDD yn dinistrio trwy holl derfynau Israel. Ystyria pa ateb a roddaf i'r un a'm hanfonodd."

¹³And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let me fall, I pray, into the hand of Jehovah; for very great are his mercies: and let me not fall into the hand of man.

¹³ Dywedodd Dafydd wrth Gad, "Y mae'n gyfyng iawn arnaf, ond bydded imi syrthio i law'r ARGLWYDD, am fod ei drugareddau'n aml, yn hytrach nag imi syrthio i law dynion."

¹⁴So Jehovah sent a pestilence upon Israel; and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.

¹⁴ Felly anfonodd yr ARGLWYDD haint ar Israel, a bu farw deng mil a thrigain o'r bobl.

¹⁵And God sent an angel unto Jerusalem to destroy it: and as he was about to destroy, Jehovah beheld, and he repented him of the evil, and said to the destroying angel, It is enough; now stay thy hand. And the angel of Jehovah was standing by the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.

¹⁵ Anfonodd Duw hefyd angel i Jerwsalem i'w dinistrio, ond fel yr oedd ar fin ei dinistrio edrychodd yr ARGLWYDD ac edifarhaodd am y niwed, a dywedodd wrth yr angel oedd yn gyfrifol am y dinistr, "Digon bellach! Atal dy law." Yr oedd angel yr ARGLWYDD yn ymyl llawr dyrnu Ornan y Jebusiad.

¹⁶And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of Jehovah standing between earth and heaven, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces.

¹⁶ Yna edrychodd Dafydd a gweld angel yr ARGLWYDD yn sefyll rhwng daear a nefoedd, �'i gleddyf noeth yn ei law wedi ei estyn dros Jerwsalem; ac fe syrthiodd Dafydd a'r henuriaid, a oedd wedi eu gwisgo mewn sachliain, ar eu hwynebau.

¹⁷And David said unto God, Is it not I that commanded the people to be numbered? even I it is that have sinned and done very wickedly; but these sheep, what have they done? let thy hand, I pray thee, O Jehovah my God, be against me, and against my father's house; but not against thy people, that they should be plagued.

¹⁷ Dywedodd Dafydd wrth Dduw, "Onid myfi a orchmynnodd rifo'r bobl? Onid myfi sydd wedi pechu a gwneud drwg? Am y defaid hyn, beth a wnaethant hwy? O ARGLWYDD fy Nuw, bydded dy law yn f'erbyn i a'm teulu, ond paid ag anfon pla ar dy bobl."

¹⁸Then the angel of Jehovah commanded Gad to say to David, that David should go up, and rear an altar unto Jehovah in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.

¹⁸ Yna dywedodd angel yr ARGLWYDD wrth Gad am orchymyn i Ddafydd fynd i fyny a chodi allor i'r ARGLWYDD ar lawr dyrnu Ornan y Jebusiad.

¹⁹And David went up at the saying of Gad, which he spake in the name of Jehovah.

¹⁹ Felly fe aeth Dafydd, ar air Gad, fel y gorchmynnodd yn enw'r ARGLWYDD.

²⁰And Ornan turned back, and saw the angel; and his four sons that were with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.

²⁰ Yr oedd Ornan yn dyrnu gwenith; trodd a gweld yr angel, ac aeth ei bedwar mab oedd gydag ef i ymguddio.

²¹And as David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshing-floor, and bowed himself to David with his face to the ground.

²¹ Daeth Dafydd at Ornan, a phan welodd Ornan ef aeth allan o'r llawr dyrnu ac ymgrymu iddo hyd lawr.

²²Then David said to Ornan, Give me the place of this threshing-floor, that I may build thereon an altar unto Jehovah: for the full price shalt thou give it me, that the plague may be stayed from the people.

²² Dywedodd Dafydd wrtho, "Rho i mi'r llawr dyrnu, er mwyn i mi godi allor yno i'r ARGLWYDD; rho ef i mi am ei lawn bris, er mwyn atal y pla rhag y bobl."

²³And Ornan said unto David, Take it to thee, and let my lord the king do that which is good in his eyes: lo, I give [thee] the oxen for burnt-offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for the meal-offering; I give it all.

²³ Meddai Ornan wrth Ddafydd, "Cymered f'arglwydd frenin ef a gwneud yr hyn a fyn; edrych, yr wyf yn rhoi'r ychen ar gyfer y poethoffrymau, a'r offer dyrnu yn danwydd a'r gwenith yn fwydoffrwm. Fe gei'r cwbl gennyf."

²⁴And king David said to Ornan, Nay; but I will verily buy it for the full price: for I will not take that which is thine for Jehovah, nor offer a burnt-offering without cost.

²⁴ Ond dywedodd y brenin wrth Ornan, "Na, rhaid i mi ei brynu am ei lawn werth. Ni chymeraf yr hyn sydd eiddot ti ac aberthu i'r ARGLWYDD boethoffrwm di-gost."

²⁵So David gave to Ornan for the place six hundred shekels of gold by weight.

²⁵ Felly talodd Dafydd chwe chan sicl o aur wrth eu pwysau i Ornan am y lle;

²⁶And David built there an altar unto Jehovah, and offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings, and called upon Jehovah; and he answered him from heaven by fire upon the altar of burnt-offering.

²⁶ a chododd yno allor i'r ARGLWYDD, ac aberthu poethoffrymau a heddoffrymau. Galwodd ar yr ARGLWYDD, ac atebodd yntau ef trwy anfon t�n o'r nefoedd ar allor y poethoffrwm.

²⁷And Jehovah commanded the angel; and he put up his sword again into the sheath thereof.

²⁷ A gorchmynnodd yr ARGLWYDD i'r angel roi ei gleddyf yn �l yn ei wain.

²⁸At that time, when David saw that Jehovah had answered him in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed there.

²⁸ Y pryd hwnnw, pan welodd Dafydd fod yr ARGLWYDD wedi ei ateb yn llawr dyrnu Ornan y Jebusiad, fe aberthodd yno.

²⁹For the tabernacle of Jehovah, which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of burnt-offering, were at that time in the high place at Gibeon.

²⁹ Yr oedd tabernacl yr ARGLWYDD, a wnaeth Moses yn yr anialwch, ac allor y poethoffrwm, yn yr uchelfa yn Gibeon y pryd hwnnw;

³⁰But David could not go before it to inquire of God; for he was afraid because of the sword of the angel of Jehovah.

³⁰ ond ni allai Dafydd fynd o'i flaen i ymofyn � Duw am ei fod yn ofni cleddyf angel yr ARGLWYDD.
