¹Now king David was old and stricken in years; and they covered him with clothes, but he gat no heat.

¹ Yr oedd y Brenin Dafydd yn hen, mewn gwth o oedran; ni chynhesai, er pentyrru dillad drosto.

²Wherefore his servants said unto him, Let there be sought for my lord the king a young virgin: and let her stand before the king, and cherish him; and let her lie in thy bosom, that my lord the king may get heat.

² A dywedodd ei weision wrtho, "Ceisier i'n harglwydd frenin forwyn ifanc i ofalu am y brenin, i'th ymgeleddu a gorwedd yn dy fynwes, fel y cynheso'r arglwydd frenin."

³So they sought for a fair damsel throughout all the borders of Israel, and found Abishag the Shunammite, and brought her to the king.

³ Yna ceisiwyd geneth deg trwy holl wlad Israel, a chafwyd Abisag y Sunamees a'i dwyn at y brenin.

⁴And the damsel was very fair; and she cherished the king, and ministered to him; but the king knew her not.

⁴ Yr oedd yn eneth brydferth iawn, a bu'n ymgeledd i'r brenin ac yn gofalu amdano; ond ni chafodd y brenin gyfathrach � hi.

⁵Then Adonijah the son of Haggith exalted himself, saying, I will be king: and he prepared him chariots and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.

⁵ Ymddyrchafodd Adoneia fab Haggith gan ddweud, "Yr wyf fi am fod yn frenin." A darparodd iddo'i hun gerbyd a marchogion, a hanner cant o wu375?r i redeg o'i flaen.

⁶And his father had not displeased him at any time in saying, Why hast thou done so? and he was also a very goodly man; and he was born after Absalom.

⁶ Nid oedd ei dad wedi gomedd dim iddo erioed na dweud, "Pam y gwnaethost fel hyn?"

⁷And he conferred with Joab the son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest: and they following Adonijah helped him.

⁷ Yr oedd yntau hefyd yn hynod deg ei bryd; a ganed ef ar �l Absalom. Bu'n trafod gyda Joab fab Serfia, ac Abiathar yr offeiriad; a rhoesant eu cefnogaeth i Adoneia.

⁸But Zadok the priest, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and Nathan the prophet, and Shimei, and Rei, and the mighty men that belonged to David, were not with Adonijah.

⁸ Ond nid oedd Sadoc yr offeiriad, Benaia fab Jehoiada, Nathan y proffwyd, Simei, Rei, na'r cedyrn oedd gan Ddafydd, o blaid Adoneia.

⁹And Adonijah slew sheep and oxen and fatlings by the stone of Zoheleth, which is beside En-rogel; and he called all his brethren, the king's sons, and all the men of Judah, the king's servants:

⁹ Yna lladdodd Adoneia ddefaid a gwartheg a phasgedigion wrth faen Soheleth sydd gerllaw En-rogel; a gwahoddodd i'w wledd ei holl frodyr, meibion y brenin, a holl wu375?r Jwda a oedd yn weision i'r brenin.

¹⁰but Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, and the mighty men, and Solomon his brother, he called not.

¹⁰ Ond ni wahoddodd Nathan y proffwyd, na Benaia a'r cedyrn, na'i frawd Solomon.

¹¹Then Nathan spake unto Bath-sheba the mother of Solomon, saying, Hast thou not heard that Adonijah the son of Haggith doth reign, and David our lord knoweth it not?

¹¹ Dywedodd Nathan wrth Bathseba, mam Solomon, "Oni chlywaist ti fod Adoneia fab Haggith yn frenin, heb i'n harglwydd Dafydd wybod?

¹²Now therefore come, let me, I pray thee, give thee counsel, that thou mayest save thine own life, and the life of thy son Solomon.

¹² Yn awr, felly, tyrd, rhoddaf iti gyngor fel y gwaredi dy fywyd dy hun a bywyd dy fab Solomon.

¹³Go and get thee in unto king David, and say unto him, Didst not thou, my lord, O king, swear unto thy handmaid, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne? why then doth Adonijah reign?

¹³ Dos i mewn ar unwaith at y Brenin Dafydd a dywed wrtho, 'Oni thyngaist, f'arglwydd frenin, wrth dy lawforwyn a dweud, "Solomon dy fab a deyrnasa ar fy �l; ef sydd i eistedd ar fy ngorsedd"? Pam gan hynny y mae Adoneia yn frenin?'

¹⁴Behold, while thou yet talkest there with the king, I also will come in after thee, and confirm thy words.

¹⁴ Tra byddi yno'n siarad �'r brenin, dof finnau i mewn i gadarnhau dy eiriau."

¹⁵And Bath-sheba went in unto the king into the chamber: and the king was very old; and Abishag the Shunammite was ministering unto the king.

¹⁵ Aeth Bathseba i mewn at y brenin i'r siambr. Yr oedd y brenin yn hen iawn, ac Abisag y Sunamees yn gofalu amdano.

¹⁶And Bath-sheba bowed, and did obeisance unto the king. And the king said, What wouldest thou?

¹⁶ Ymostyngodd Bathseba ac ymgrymu i'r brenin, a dywedodd y brenin, "Beth sy'n bod?"

¹⁷And she said unto him, My lord, thou swarest by Jehovah thy God unto thy handmaid, [saying], Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne.

¹⁷ Atebodd hithau, "F'arglwydd, ti dy hun a dyngodd trwy'r ARGLWYDD dy Dduw wrth dy lawforwyn: 'Solomon dy fab a deyrnasa ar fy �l; ef sydd i eistedd ar fy ngorsedd.'

¹⁸And now, behold, Adonijah reigneth; and thou, my lord the king, knowest it not:

¹⁸ Ond yn awr, y mae Adoneia'n frenin, a thithau, f'arglwydd frenin, heb wybod.

¹⁹and he hath slain oxen and fatlings and sheep in abundance, and hath called all the sons of the king, and Abiathar the priest, and Joab the captain of the host; but Solomon thy servant hath he not called.

¹⁹ Y mae wedi lladd llawer o fustych, pasgedigion a defaid, a gwahodd holl feibion y brenin, Abiathar yr offeiriad a Joab, tywysog y llu; ond ni wahoddodd dy was Solomon.

²⁰And thou, my lord the king, the eyes of all Israel are upon thee, that thou shouldest tell them who shall sit on the throne of my lord the king after him.

²⁰ Yn awr y mae llygaid holl Israel arnat ti, f'arglwydd frenin, fel y mynegi iddynt pwy sydd i eistedd ar orsedd f'arglwydd frenin ar ei �l.

²¹Otherwise it will come to pass, when my lord the king shall sleep with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon shall be counted offenders.

²¹ Onid e, pan fydd f'arglwydd frenin farw, cyfrifir fi a'm mab yn droseddwyr."

²²And, lo, while she yet talked with the king, Nathan the prophet came in.

²² Tra oedd hi'n siarad �'r brenin, cyrhaeddodd y proffwyd Nathan,

²³And they told the king, saying, Behold, Nathan the prophet. And when he was come in before the king, he bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground.

²³ a hysbyswyd y brenin: "Dyma Nathan y proffwyd." Daeth yntau gerbron y brenin, ac ymgrymu i'r brenin �'i wyneb i'r llawr.

²⁴And Nathan said, My lord, O king, hast thou said, Adonijah shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne?

²⁴ A dywedodd Nathan, "F'arglwydd frenin, a ddywedaist ti mai Adoneia sydd i deyrnasu ar dy �l, ac i eistedd ar dy orsedd?

²⁵For he is gone down this day, and hath slain oxen and fatlings and sheep in abundance, and hath called all the king's sons, and the captains of the host, and Abiathar the priest; and, behold, they are eating and drinking before him, and say, [Long] live king Adonijah.

²⁵ Oblegid aeth i lawr heddiw, a lladdodd lawer o fustych, pasgedigion a defaid, a gwahodd i'w wledd holl dylwyth y brenin, tywysog y llu ac Abiathar yr offeiriad. Y maent yn bwyta ac yn yfed yn ei u373?ydd, ac yn ei gyfarch, 'Byw fyddo'r brenin Adoneia!'

²⁶But me, even me thy servant, and Zadok the priest, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and thy servant Solomon, hath he not called.

²⁶ Ond nid yw wedi fy ngwahodd i, sy'n was i ti, na Sadoc yr offeiriad, na Benaia fab Jehoiada, na Solomon dy was.

²⁷Is this thing done by my lord the king, and thou hast not showed unto thy servants who should sit on the throne of my lord the king after him?

²⁷ A wnaed y peth hwn trwy f'arglwydd frenin, heb i ti hysbysu dy was pwy sydd i eistedd ar orsedd f'arglwydd frenin ar ei �l?"

²⁸Then king David answered and said, Call to me Bath-sheba. And she came into the king's presence, and stood before the king.

²⁸ Atebodd y Brenin Dafydd, "Galwch Bathseba." Daeth hithau i u373?ydd y brenin a sefyll o'i flaen.

²⁹And the king sware, and said, As Jehovah liveth, who hath redeemed my soul out of all adversity,

²⁹ Yna tyngodd y brenin a dweud, "Cyn wired � bod yr ARGLWYDD yn fyw, a waredodd fy mywyd o bob cyfyngder,

³⁰verily as I sware unto thee by Jehovah, the God of Israel, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne in my stead; verily so will I do this day.

³⁰ yn ddiau fel y tyngais i ti trwy'r ARGLWYDD, Duw Israel, mai Solomon dy fab a deyrnasai ar fy �l, ac eistedd ar fy ngorsedd yn fy lle, felly yn ddiau y gwnaf y dydd hwn."

³¹Then Bath-sheba bowed with her face to the earth, and did obeisance to the king, and said, Let my lord king David live for ever.

³¹ Ymostyngodd Bathseba �'i hwyneb i'r llawr ac ymgrymu i'r brenin, a dweud, "Boed i'm harglwydd, y Brenin Dafydd, fyw byth!"

³²And king David said, Call to me Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada. And they came before the king.

³² Dywedodd y Brenin Dafydd, "Galwch Sadoc yr offeiriad, Nathan y proffwyd a Benaia fab Jehoiada."

³³And the king said unto them, Take with you the servants of your lord, and cause Solomon my son to ride upon mine own mule, and bring him down to Gihon:

³³ Daethant i u373?ydd y brenin, a dywedodd y brenin wrthynt, "Cymerwch weision eich arglwydd gyda chwi, a pheri i'm mab Solomon farchogaeth ar fy mules, a dewch ag ef i lawr i Gihon.

³⁴and let Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him there king over Israel; and blow ye the trumpet, and say, [Long] live king Solomon.

³⁴ Yno boed i Sadoc yr offeiriad a Nathan y proffwyd ei eneinio ef yn frenin ar Israel; seiniwch yr utgorn a dywedwch, 'Byw fyddo'r Brenin Solomon!'

³⁵Then ye shall come up after him, and he shall come and sit upon my throne; for he shall be king in my stead; and I have appointed him to be prince over Israel and over Judah.

³⁵ Dewch chwithau i fyny ar ei �l, a boed iddo eistedd ar fy ngorsedd; ef sydd i deyrnasu yn fy lle, a gorchmynnaf iddo fod yn dywysog ar Israel a Jwda."

³⁶And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada answered the king, and said, Amen: Jehovah, the God of my lord the king, say so [too].

³⁶ Yna atebodd Benaia fab Jehoiada y brenin, a dweud, "Amen! Felly hefyd y dywedo'r ARGLWYDD, Duw fy arglwydd frenin.

³⁷As Jehovah hath been with my lord the king, even so be he with Solomon, and make his throne greater than the throne of my lord king David.

³⁷ Fel y bu'r ARGLWYDD gyda'm harglwydd frenin, felly bydded gyda Solomon; a gwnaed ei orsedd yn uwch na gorsedd f'arglwydd, y Brenin Dafydd."

³⁸So Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites, went down, and caused Solomon to ride upon king David's mule, and brought him to Gihon.

³⁸ Aeth Sadoc yr offeiriad a Nathan y proffwyd a Benaia fab Jehoiada, a'r Cerethiaid a'r Pelethiaid, i lawr, gan beri i Solomon farchogaeth ar fules y Brenin Dafydd, a dod ag ef i Gihon.

³⁹And Zadok the priest took the horn of oil out of the Tent, and anointed Solomon. And they blew the trumpet; and all the people said, [Long] live king Solomon.

³⁹ Cymerodd Sadoc yr offeiriad y corn olew o'r babell, ac eneiniodd Solomon; yna seiniwyd yr utgorn, a dywedodd yr holl bobl, "Byw fyddo'r brenin Solomon!"

⁴⁰And all the people came up after him, and the people piped with pipes, and rejoiced with great joy, so that the earth rent with the sound of them.

⁴⁰ Aeth yr holl bobl i fyny ar ei �l dan ganu ffliwtiau a llawenhau'n orfoleddus, nes hollti'r ddaear �'u su373?n.

⁴¹And Adonijah and all the guests that were with him heard it as they had made an end of eating. And when Joab heard the sound of the trumpet, he said, Wherefore is this noise of the city being in an uproar?

⁴¹ Tra oeddent yn gorffen bwyta, clywodd Adoneia hyn, a'r holl wahoddedigion oedd gydag ef. A phan glywodd Joab sain yr utgorn dywedodd, "Pam y mae su373?n cynnwrf yn y ddinas?"

⁴²While he yet spake, behold, Jonathan the son of Abiathar the priest came: and Adonijah said, Come in; for thou art a worthy man, and bringest good tidings.

⁴² Ar y gair, dyma Jonathan fab Abiathar yr offeiriad yn cyrraedd. Dywedodd Adoneia, "Tyrd i mewn; gu373?r teilwng wyt ti, a newydd da sydd gennyt."

⁴³And Jonathan answered and said to Adonijah, Verily our lord king David hath made Solomon king:

⁴³ Ond atebodd Jonathan a dweud wrth Adoneia, "Nage'n wir! Y mae ein harglwydd, y Brenin Dafydd, wedi gwneud Solomon yn frenin,

⁴⁴and the king hath sent with him Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and they have caused him to ride upon the king's mule;

⁴⁴ ac wedi anfon gydag ef Sadoc yr offeiriad, Nathan y proffwyd, Benaia fab Jehoiada, y Cerethiaid a'r Pelethiaid, a pheri iddo farchogaeth ar fules y brenin.

⁴⁵and Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet have anointed him king in Gihon; and they are come up from thence rejoicing, so that the city rang again. This is the noise that ye have heard.

⁴⁵ Ac eneiniodd Sadoc yr offeiriad a Nathan y proffwyd ef yn frenin yn Gihon, a daethant i fyny oddi yno dan lawenhau, a chynhyrfodd y ddinas. Dyna'r twrf a glywsoch.

⁴⁶And also Solomon sitteth on the throne of the kingdom.

⁴⁶ A mwy na hynny, y mae Solomon yn eistedd ar orsedd y frenhiniaeth;

⁴⁷And moreover the king's servants came to bless our lord king David, saying, Thy God make the name of Solomon better than thy name, and make his throne greater than thy throne: and the king bowed himself upon the bed.

⁴⁷ a daeth gweision y brenin ymlaen i gyfarch ein harglwydd, y Brenin Dafydd, a dweud, 'Gwneled dy Dduw enw Solomon yn well na'th enw di, a dyrchafed ei orsedd ef yn uwch na'th orsedd di!' Ac ymgrymodd y brenin ar ei wely.

⁴⁸And also thus said the king, Blessed be Jehovah, the God of Israel, who hath given one to sit on my throne this day, mine eyes even seeing it.

⁴⁸ Fel hyn y dywedodd y brenin: 'Bendigedig fyddo ARGLWYDD Dduw Israel, a roes heddiw un i eistedd ar fy ngorsedd, a'm llygaid innau'n gweld hynny.'"

⁴⁹And all the guests of Adonijah were afraid, and rose up, and went every man his way.

⁴⁹ Cododd holl wahoddedigion Adoneia mewn dychryn a mynd bob un i'w ffordd.

⁵⁰And Adonijah feared because of Solomon; and he arose, and went, and caught hold on the horns of the altar.

⁵⁰ A chan fod Adoneia'n ofni rhag Solomon, cododd ac aeth i ymaflyd yng nghyrn yr allor.

⁵¹And it was told Solomon, saying, Behold, Adonijah feareth king Solomon; for, lo, he hath laid hold on the horns of the altar, saying, Let king Solomon swear unto me first that he will not slay his servant with the sword.

⁵¹ Mynegwyd i Solomon, "Edrych, y mae Adoneia'n ofni'r Brenin Solomon; ymaflodd yng nghyrn yr allor a dweud, 'Tynged y Brenin Solomon wrthyf yn awr na fydd iddo ladd ei was �'r cledd.'"

⁵²And Solomon said, If he shall show himself a worthy man, there shall not a hair of him fall to the earth; but if wickedness be found in him, he shall die.

⁵² A dywedodd Solomon, "Os bydd yn u373?r teilwng, ni syrth un blewyn o'i wallt i lawr; ond os ceir drygioni ynddo, fe fydd farw."

⁵³So king Solomon sent, and they brought him down from the altar. And he came and did obeisance to king Solomon; and Solomon said unto him, Go to thy house.

⁵³ Ac anfonodd y Brenin Solomon i'w gyrchu ef i lawr oddi wrth yr allor. Daeth yntau ac ymgrymu i'r Brenin Solomon; a dywedodd Solomon wrtho, "Dos i'th du375?."
