¹Now the Philistines gathered together their armies to battle; and they were gathered together at Socoh, which belongeth to Judah, and encamped between Socoh and Azekah, in Ephes-dammim.

¹ Casglodd y Philistiaid eu lluoedd i ryfel, ac ymgynnull yn Socho, a oedd yn perthyn i Jwda, a gosod eu gwersyll rhwng Socho ac Aseca yn Effes-dammim.

²And Saul and the men of Israel were gathered together, and encamped in the vale of Elah, and set the battle in array against the Philistines.

² Ymgynullodd Saul a'r Israeliaid hefyd, a gwersyllu yn nyffryn Ela a pharatoi i frwydro yn erbyn y Philistiaid.

³And the Philistines stood on the mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on the mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them.

³ Safai'r Philistiaid ar dir uchel o un tu, ac Israel ar dir uchel o'r tu arall, gyda dyffryn rhyngddynt.

⁴And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.

⁴ O wersyll y Philistiaid daeth allan heriwr o'r enw Goliath, dyn o Gath, ac yn chwe chufydd a rhychwant o daldra.

⁵And he had a helmet of brass upon his head, and he was clad with a coat of mail; and the weight of the coat was five thousand shekels of brass.

⁵ Yr oedd ganddo helm bres am ei ben, ac yr oedd wedi ei wisgo mewn llurig emog o bres, yn pwyso pum mil o siclau.

⁶And he had greaves of brass upon his legs, and a javelin of brass between his shoulders.

⁶ Yr oedd coesarnau pres am ei goesau a chrymgledd pres rhwng ei ysgwyddau.

⁷And the staff of his spear was like a weaver's beam; and his spear's head [weighed] six hundred shekels of iron: and his shield-bearer went before him.

⁷ Yr oedd paladr ei waywffon fel carfan gwehydd, a'i blaen yn chwe chan sicl o haearn. Yr oedd cludydd tarian yn cerdded o'i flaen.

⁸And he stood and cried unto the armies of Israel, and said unto them, Why are ye come out to set your battle in array? am not I a Philistine, and ye servants to Saul? choose you a man for you, and let him come down to me.

⁸ Safodd Goliath a gweiddi ar rengoedd Israel a dweud wrthynt, "Pam y dewch allan yn rhengoedd i frwydro? Onid Philistiad wyf fi, a chwithau'n weision i Saul? Dewiswch un ohonoch i ddod i lawr ataf fi.

⁹If he be able to fight with me, and kill me, then will we be your servants; but if I prevail against him, and kill him, then shall ye be our servants, and serve us.

⁹ Os medr ef ymladd � mi a'm trechu, fe fyddwn ni yn weision i chwi; ond os medraf fi ei drechu ef, chwi fydd yn weision i ni, ac yn ein gwasanaethu."

¹⁰And the Philistine said, I defy the armies of Israel this day; give me a man, that we may fight together.

¹⁰ Ychwanegodd y Philistiad, "Yr wyf fi heddiw yn herio rhengoedd Israel; dewch � gu373?r, ynteu, inni gael ymladd �'n gilydd."

¹¹And when Saul and all Israel heard those words of the Philistine, they were dismayed, and greatly afraid.

¹¹ Pan glywodd Saul a'r Israeliaid y geiriau hyn gan y Philistiad, yr oeddent wedi eu parlysu gan ofn.

¹²Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Beth-lehem-judah, whose name was Jesse; and he had eight sons: and the man was an old man in the days of Saul, stricken [in years] among men.

¹² Yr oedd Dafydd yn fab i Effratead o Fethlehem Jwda. Jesse oedd enw hwnnw, ac yr oedd ganddo wyth mab, ac erbyn dyddiau Saul yr oedd yn hen iawn.

¹³And the three eldest sons of Jesse had gone after Saul to the battle: and the names of his three sons that went to the battle were Eliab the first-born, and next unto him Abinadab, and the third Shammah.

¹³ Yr oedd ei dri mab hynaf wedi dilyn Saul i'r rhyfel. Enwau'r tri o'i feibion a aeth i'r rhyfel oedd Eliab yr hynaf, Abinadab yr ail, a Samma y trydydd;

¹⁴And David was the youngest; and the three eldest followed Saul.

¹⁴ Dafydd oedd yr ieuengaf. Aeth y tri hynaf i ganlyn Saul;

¹⁵Now David went to and fro from Saul to feed his father's sheep at Beth-lehem.

¹⁵ ond byddai Dafydd yn mynd a dod oddi wrth Saul i fugeilio defaid ei dad ym Methlehem.

¹⁶And the Philistine drew near morning and evening, and presented himself forty days.

¹⁶ Bob bore a hwyr am ddeugain diwrnod bu'r Philistiad yn dod ac yn sefyll i herio.

¹⁷And Jesse said unto David his son, Take now for thy brethren an ephah of this parched grain, and these ten loaves, and carry [them] quickly to the camp to thy brethren;

¹⁷ Dywedodd Jesse wrth ei fab Dafydd, "Cymer effa o'r crasyd yma i'th frodyr, a'r deg torth hyn, a brysia � hwy i'r gwersyll at dy frodyr.

¹⁸and bring these ten cheeses unto the captain of their thousand, and look how thy brethren fare, and take their pledge.

¹⁸ Dos �'r deg cosyn gwyn yma i'r swyddog, ac edrych sut y mae hi ar dy frodyr, a thyrd � rhyw arwydd yn �l oddi wrthynt."

¹⁹Now Saul, and they, and all the men of Israel, were in the vale of Elah, fighting with the Philistines.

¹⁹ Yr oedd Saul a hwythau ac Israel gyfan yn nyffryn Ela yn ymladd �'r Philistiaid.

²⁰And David rose up early in the morning, and left the sheep with a keeper, and took, and went, as Jesse had commanded him; and he came to the place of the wagons, as the host which was going forth to the fight shouted for the battle.

²⁰ Trannoeth cododd Dafydd yn fore, a gadael y praidd gyda gofalwr, a chymryd ei bac a mynd fel yr oedd Jesse wedi gorchymyn iddo. Cyrhaeddodd y gwersyll fel yr oedd y fyddin yn mynd i'w rhengoedd ac yn bloeddio'r rhyfelgri.

²¹And Israel and the Philistines put the battle in array, army against army.

²¹ Yr oedd Israel a'r Philistiaid wedi trefnu eu lluoedd, reng am reng.

²²And David left his baggage in the hand of the keeper of the baggage, and ran to the army, and came and saluted his brethren.

²² Gadawodd Dafydd ei bac gyda gofalwr y gwersyll, a rhedeg i'r rheng a mynd i ofyn sut yr oedd ei frodyr.

²³And as he talked with them, behold, there came up the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, out of the ranks of the Philistines, and spake according to the same words: and David heard them.

²³ Tra oedd yn ymddiddan � hwy, dyna'r heriwr o'r enw Goliath, y Philistiad o Gath, yn dod i fyny o rengoedd y Philistiaid ac yn llefaru yng nghlyw Dafydd yr un geiriau ag o'r blaen.

²⁴And all the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from him, and were sore afraid.

²⁴ Pan welodd yr Israeliaid y dyn, ffoesant i gyd oddi wrtho mewn ofn,

²⁵And the men of Israel said, Have ye seen this man that is come up? surely to defy Israel is he come up: and it shall be, that the man who killeth him, the king will enrich him with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and make his father's house free in Israel.

²⁵ a dweud, "A welwch chwi'r dyn yma sy'n dod i fyny? I herio Israel y mae'n dod. Pe byddai unrhyw un yn ei ladd, byddai'r brenin yn ei wneud yn gyfoethog iawn, ac yn rhoi ei ferch iddo, ac yn rhoi rhyddfraint Israel i'w deulu."

²⁶And David spake to the men that stood by him, saying, What shall be done to the man that killeth this Philistine, and taketh away the reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?

²⁶ Yna gofynnodd Dafydd i'r dynion oedd yn sefyll o'i gwmpas, "Beth a wneir i'r sawl fydd yn lladd y Philistiad acw, ac yn symud y sarhad oddi ar Israel? Oherwydd pwy yw'r Philistiad dienwaededig hwn, ei fod yn herio lluoedd y Duw byw?"

²⁷And the people answered him after this manner, saying, So shall it be done to the man that killeth him.

²⁷ Dywedodd y bobl yr un peth wrtho: "Fel hyn y gwneir i'r sawl fydd yn ei ladd ef."

²⁸And Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spake unto the men; and Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he said, Why art thou come down? and with whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know thy pride, and the naughtiness of thy heart; for thou art come down that thou mightest see the battle.

²⁸ Clywodd ei frawd hynaf Eliab ef yn siarad �'r dynion, a chollodd ei dymer � Dafydd a dweud, "Pam y daethost ti i lawr yma? Yng ngofal pwy y gadewaist yr ychydig ddefaid yna yn y diffeithwch? Mi wn dy hyfdra a'th fwriadau drwg � er mwyn cael gweld y frwydr y daethost ti draw yma."

²⁹And David said, What have I now done? Is there not a cause?

²⁹ Dywedodd Dafydd, "Beth wnes i? Onid gofyn cwestiwn?"

³⁰And he turned away from him toward another, and spake after the same manner: and the people answered him again after the former manner.

³⁰ Trodd draw oddi wrtho at rywun arall, a gofyn yr un peth, a'r bobl yn rhoi'r un ateb ag o'r blaen iddo.

³¹And when the words were heard which David spake, they rehearsed them before Saul; and he sent for him.

³¹ Rhoddwyd sylw i'r geiriau a lefarodd Dafydd, a'u hailadrodd wrth Saul, ac anfonodd yntau amdano.

³²And David said to Saul, Let no man's heart fail because of him; thy servant will go and fight with this Philistine.

³² Ac meddai Dafydd wrth Saul, "Peidied neb � gwangalonni o achos hwn; fe � dy was ac ymladd �'r Philistiad yma."

³³And Saul said to David, Thou art not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for thou art but a youth, and he a man of war from his youth.

³³ Dywedodd Saul wrth Ddafydd, "Ni fedri di fynd ac ymladd �'r Philistiad hwn, oherwydd llanc wyt ti ac yntau'n rhyfelwr o'i ieuenctid."

³⁴And David said unto Saul, Thy servant was keeping his father's sheep; and when there came a lion, or a bear, and took a lamb out of the flock,

³⁴ Ond dyw-edodd Dafydd wrth Saul, "Bugail ar ddefaid ei dad yw dy was;

³⁵I went out after him, and smote him, and delivered it out of his mouth; and when he arose against me, I caught him by his beard, and smote him, and slew him.

³⁵ pan fydd llew neu arth yn dod ac yn cipio dafad o'r ddiadell, byddaf yn mynd ar ei �l, yn ei daro, ac yn achub y ddafad o'i safn. Pan fydd yn codi yn fy erbyn i, byddaf yn cydio yn ei farf, yn ei drywanu, ac yn ei ladd.

³⁶Thy servant smote both the lion and the bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he hath defied the armies of the living God.

³⁶ Mae dy was wedi lladd llewod ac eirth, a dim ond fel un ohonynt hwy y bydd y Philistiad dienwaededig hwn, am iddo herio byddin y Duw byw."

³⁷And David said, Jehovah that delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said unto David, Go, and Jehovah shall be with thee.

³⁷ Ac ychwanegodd Dafydd, "Bydd yr ARGLWYDD a'm gwaredodd o afael y llew a'r arth yn sicr o'm hachub o afael y Philistiad hwn hefyd." Dywedodd Saul, "Dos, a bydded yr ARGLWYDD gyda thi."

³⁸And Saul clad David with his apparel, and he put a helmet of brass upon his head, and he clad him with a coat of mail.

³⁸ Rhoddodd Saul ei wisg ei hun am Ddafydd: rhoi helm bres ar ei ben, ei wisgo yn ei lurig, a gwregysu Dafydd �'i gleddyf dros ei wisg.

³⁹And David girded his sword upon his apparel, and he assayed to go; for he had not proved it. And David said unto Saul, I cannot go with these; for I have not proved them. And David put them off him.

³⁹ Ond methodd gerdded, am nad oedd wedi arfer � hwy. Dywedodd Dafydd wrth Saul, "Ni fedraf gerdded yn y rhain, oherwydd nid wyf wedi arfer � hwy." A diosgodd hwy oddi amdano.

⁴⁰And he took his staff in his hand, and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in the shepherd's bag which he had, even in his wallet; and his sling was in his hand: and he drew near to the Philistine.

⁴⁰ Yna cymerodd ei ffon yn ei law, dewisodd bum carreg lefn o'r nant a'u rhoi yn y bag bugail oedd ganddo fel poced, a nesaodd at y Philistiad �'i ffon dafl yn ei law,

⁴¹And the Philistine came on and drew near unto David; and the man that bare the shield went before him.

⁴¹ Daeth hwnnw allan i gyfarfod Dafydd, gyda chludydd ei darian o'i flaen.

⁴²And when the Philistine looked about, and saw David, he disdained him; for he was but a youth, and ruddy, and withal of a fair countenance.

⁴² A phan edrychodd y Philistiad a gweld Dafydd, dirmygodd ef am ei fod yn llencyn gwritgoch, golygus.

⁴³And the Philistine said unto David, Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with staves? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.

⁴³ Ac meddai'r Philistiad wrth Ddafydd, "Ai ci wyf fi, dy fod yn dod ataf � ffyn?" A rhegodd y Philistiad ef yn enw ei dduw,

⁴⁴And the Philistine said to David, Come to me, and I will give thy flesh unto the birds of the heavens, and to the beasts of the field.

⁴⁴ a dweud wrtho, "Tyrd yma, ac fe roddaf dy gnawd i adar yr awyr ac i'r anifeiliaid gwyllt."

⁴⁵Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a javelin: but I come to thee in the name of Jehovah of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied.

⁴⁵ Ond dywedodd Dafydd wrth y Philistiad, "Yr wyt ti'n dod ataf fi � chleddyf a gwaywffon a chrymgledd; ond yr wyf fi'n dod atat ti yn enw ARGLWYDD y Lluoedd, Duw byddin Israel, yr wyt ti wedi ei herio.

⁴⁶This day will Jehovah deliver thee into my hand; and I will smite thee, and take thy head from off thee; and I will give the dead bodies of the host of the Philistines this day unto the birds of the heavens, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel,

⁴⁶ Y dydd hwn bydd yr ARGLWYDD yn dy roi yn fy llaw; lladdaf di a thorri dy ben i ffwrdd, a rhoi celanedd llu'r Philistiaid heddiw i adar yr awyr a bwystfilod y ddaear, er mwyn i'r byd i gyd wybod fod Duw gan Israel,

⁴⁷and that all this assembly may know that Jehovah saveth not with sword and spear: for the battle is Jehovah's, and he will give you into our hand.

⁴⁷ ac i'r holl gynulliad hwn wybod nad trwy gleddyf na gwaywffon y mae'r ARGLWYDD yn gwaredu, oherwydd yr ARGLWYDD biau'r frwydr, ac fe'ch rhydd chwi yn ein llaw ni."

⁴⁸And it came to pass, when the Philistine arose, and came and drew nigh to meet David, that David hastened, and ran toward the army to meet the Philistine.

⁴⁸ Yna pan gychwynnodd y Philistiad tuag at Ddafydd, rhedodd Dafydd yn chwim ar hyd y rheng i gyfarfod y Philistiad;

⁴⁹And David put his hand in his bag, and took thence a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine in his forehead; and the stone sank into his forehead, and he fell upon his face to the earth.

⁴⁹ rhoddodd ei law yn y bag a chymryd carreg allan a'i hyrddio, a tharo'r Philistiad yn ei dalcen nes bod y garreg yn suddo i'w dalcen; syrthiodd yntau ar ei wyneb i'r llawr.

⁵⁰So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistine, and slew him; but there was no sword in the hand of David.

⁵⁰ Felly trechodd Dafydd y Philistiad � ffon dafl a charreg, a'i daro'n farw, heb fod ganddo gleddyf.

⁵¹Then David ran, and stood over the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath thereof, and slew him, and cut off his head therewith. And when the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fled.

⁵¹ Yna rhedodd Dafydd a sefyll uwchben y Philistiad; cydiodd yn ei gleddyf ef a'i dynnu o'r wain, a rhoi'r ergyd olaf iddo a thorri ei ben i ffwrdd. Pan welodd y Philistiaid fod eu harwr yn farw, ffoesant;

⁵²And the men of Israel and of Judah arose, and shouted, and pursued the Philistines, until thou comest to Gai, and to the gates of Ekron. And the wounded of the Philistines fell down by the way to Shaaraim, even unto Gath, and unto Ekron.

⁵² a chododd gwu375?r Israel a Jwda a bloeddio rhyfelgri ac ymlid y Philistiaid cyn belled � Gath a phyrth Ecron. A chwympodd celanedd y Philistiaid ar hyd y ffordd o Saaraim i Gath ac Ecron.

⁵³And the children of Israel returned from chasing after the Philistines, and they plundered their camp.

⁵³ Yna dychwelodd yr Israeliaid o ymlid y Philistiaid, ac ysbeilio eu gwersyll.

⁵⁴And David took the head of the Philistine, and brought it to Jerusalem; but he put his armor in his tent.

⁵⁴ Cymerodd Dafydd ben y Philistiad a'i ddwyn i Jerwsalem, ond gosododd ei arfau yn ei babell ei hun.

⁵⁵And when Saul saw David go forth against the Philistine, he said unto Abner, the captain of the host, Abner, whose son is this youth? And Abner said, As thy soul liveth, O king, I cannot tell.

⁵⁵ Pan welodd Saul Ddafydd yn mynd allan i gyfarfod y Philistiad, gofynnodd i Abner, capten ei lu, "Mab i bwy yw'r bachgen acw, Abner?" Atebodd Abner, "Cyn wired �'th fod yn fyw, O frenin, ni wn i ddim."

⁵⁶And the king said, Inquire thou whose son the stripling is.

⁵⁶ A dywedodd y brenin, "Hola di mab i bwy yw'r llanc ifanc."

⁵⁷And as David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, Abner took him, and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistine in his hand.

⁵⁷ Felly pan gyrhaeddodd Dafydd yn �l wedi iddo ladd y Philistiad, cymerodd Abner ef a'i ddwyn at Saul gyda phen y Philistiad yn ei law.

⁵⁸And Saul said to him, Whose son art thou, thou young man? And David answered, I am the son of thy servant Jesse the Beth-lehemite.

⁵⁸ Gofynnodd Saul, "Mab pwy wyt ti, fachgen?" A dywedodd Dafydd, "Mab dy was Jesse o Fethlehem."
