1And when Rehoboam was come to Jerusalem, he assembled the house of Judah and Benjamin, a hundred and fourscore thousand chosen men, that were warriors, to fight against Israel, to bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam.
1 Pan ddychwelodd Rehoboam i Jerwsalem, galwodd ynghyd dylwythau Jwda a Benjamin, cant a phedwar ugain o filoedd o ryfelwyr dethol, i ryfela yn erbyn Israel i adennill y frenhiniaeth i Rehoboam.
2But the word of Jehovah came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
2 Ond daeth gair yr ARGLWYDD at Semeia, gu373?r Duw:
3Speak unto Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,
3 "Dywed wrth Rehoboam fab Solomon, brenin Jwda, ac wrth holl Israel yn Jwda a Benjamin,
4Thus saith Jehovah, Ye shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren: return every man to his house; for this thing is of me. So they hearkened unto the words of Jehovah, and returned from going against Jeroboam.
4 'Fel hyn y dywed yr ARGLWYDD: Peidiwch � mynd i ryfela yn erbyn eich perthnasau; ewch yn �l adref bob un, gan mai oddi wrthyf fi y daw hyn.'" A gwrandawsant ar eiriau'r ARGLWYDD, a pheidio � mynd yn erbyn Jeroboam.
5And Rehoboam dwelt in Jerusalem, and built cities for defence in Judah.
5 Arhosodd Rehoboam yn Jerwsalem, ac adeiladu dinasoedd caerog yn Jwda.
6He built Beth-lehem, and Etam, and Tekoa,
6 Adeiladodd Bethlehem, Etam, Tecoa,
7And Beth-zur, and Soco, and Adullam,
7 Beth-sur, Socho, Adulam,
8and Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
8 Gath, Maresa, Siff,
9and Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
9 Adoraim, Lachis, Aseca,
10and Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, which are in Judah and in Benjamin, fortified cities.
10 Sora, Ajalon a Hebron, sef dinasoedd caerog Jwda a Benjamin.
11And he fortified the strongholds, and put captains in them, and stores of victuals, and oil and wine.
11 Cryfhaodd y caerau a rhoi rheolwyr ynddynt, a hefyd st�r o fwyd, olew a gwin.
12And in every city [he put] shields and spears, and made them exceeding strong. And Judah and Benjamin belonged to him.
12 Gwnaeth bob dinas yn amddiffynfa gadarn iawn ac yn lle i gadw tarianau a gwaywffyn. Felly daliodd ei afael ar Jwda a Benjamin.
13And the priests and the Levites that were in all Israel resorted to him out of all their border.
13 Daeth yr offeiriaid a'r Lefiaid ato o ble bynnag yr oeddent yn byw yn Israel gyfan;
14For the Levites left their suburbs and their possession, and came to Judah and Jerusalem: for Jeroboam and his sons cast them off, that they should not execute the priest's office unto Jehovah;
14 oherwydd yr oedd y Lefiaid wedi gadael eu cytir a'u tiriogaeth a dod i Jwda a Jerwsalem, am fod Jeroboam a'i feibion wedi eu rhwystro rhag bod yn offeiriaid i'r ARGLWYDD,
15and he appointed him priests for the high places, and for the he-goats, and for the calves which he had made.
15 ac wedi penodi ei offeiriaid ei hun ar gyfer yr uchelfeydd ac ar gyfer y bychod geifr a'r lloi a luniodd.
16And after them, out of all the tribes of Israel, such as set their hearts to seek Jehovah, the God of Israel, came to Jerusalem to sacrifice unto Jehovah, the God of their fathers.
16 A daeth pawb o lwythau Israel, a oedd yn awyddus i geisio ARGLWYDD Dduw Israel, ar �l y Lefiaid i Jerwsalem er mwyn aberthu i ARGLWYDD Dduw eu hynafiaid.
17So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and made Rehoboam the son of Solomon strong, three years; for they walked three years in the way of David and Solomon.
17 Felly cryfhasant frenhiniaeth Jwda, a chadarnhau Rehoboam fab Solomon am dair blynedd, gan ddilyn yn llwybrau Dafydd a Solomon trwy'r cyfnod hwn.
18And Rehoboam took him a wife, Mahalath the daughter of Jerimoth the son of David, [and of] Abihail the daughter of Eliab the son of Jesse;
18 Priododd Rehoboam � Mahalath; merch i Jerimoth fab Dafydd ac i Abihail ferch Eliab, fab Jesse oedd hi,
19and she bare him sons: Jeush, and Shemariah, and Zaham.
19 ac fe roes iddo feibion, sef Jeus, Samareia a Saham.
20And after her he took Maacah the daughter of Absalom; and she bare him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.
20 Ar ei h�l hi, fe gymerodd Maacha ferch Absalom, a rhoes hithau iddo Abeia, Attai, Sisa a Selomith.
21And Rehoboam loved Maacah the daughter of Absalom above all his wives and his concubines: (for he took eighteen wives, and threescore concubines, and begat twenty and eight sons and threescore daughters.)
21 Yr oedd Rehoboam yn caru Maacha ferch Absalom yn fwy na'i holl wragedd a'i ordderchwragedd. Yr oedd ganddo ddeunaw o wragedd a thrigain o ordderchwragedd, ac fe genhedlodd wyth ar hugain o feibion a thrigain o ferched.
22And Rehoboam appointed Abijah the son of Maacah to be chief, [even] the prince among his brethren; for [he was minded] to make him king.
22 Gosododd Rehoboam Abeia fab Maacha yn bennaeth ar ei frodyr, er mwyn ei wneud yn frenin.
23And he dealt wisely, and dispersed of all his sons throughout all the lands of Judah and Benjamin, unto every fortified city: and he gave them victuals in abundance. And he sought [for them] many wives.
23 Bu'n ddigon doeth i wasgaru ei feibion trwy'r holl ddinasoedd caerog yn nhiriogaeth Jwda a Benjamin. Darparodd yn hael ar eu cyfer a cheisiodd lawer o wragedd iddynt.
