¹And the high priest said, Are these things so?

¹ Gofynnodd yr archoffeiriad: "Ai felly y mae?"

²And he said, Brethren and fathers, hearken: The God of glory appeared unto our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Haran,

² Meddai yntau: "Frodyr a thadau, clywch. Ymddangosodd Duw'r gogoniant i'n tad ni, Abraham, ac yntau yn Mesopotamia cyn iddo ymsefydlu yn Haran,

³and said unto him, Get thee out of thy land, and from thy kindred, and come into the land which I shall show thee.

³ a dywedodd wrtho, 'Dos allan o'th wlad ac oddi wrth dy berthnasau, a thyrd i'r wlad a ddangosaf iti.'

⁴Then came he out of the land of the Chaldaeans, and dwelt in Haran: and from thence, when his father was dead, [God] removed him into this land, wherein ye now dwell:

⁴ Yna fe aeth allan o wlad y Chaldeaid, ac ymsefydlodd yn Haran. Oddi yno, wedi i'w dad farw, fe symudodd Duw ef i'r wlad hon, lle'r ydych chwi'n preswylio yn awr.

⁵and he gave him none inheritance in it, no, not so much as to set his foot on: and he promised that he would give it to him in possession, and to his seed after him, when [as yet] he had no child.

⁵ Eto ni roes iddo etifeddiaeth ynddi, naddo, ddim troedfedd. Addo a wnaeth ei rhoi iddo ef i'w meddiannu, ac i'w ddisgynyddion ar ei �l, ac yntau heb blentyn.

⁶And God spake on this wise, that his seed should sojourn in a strange land, and that they should bring them into bondage, and treat them ill, four hundred years.

⁶ Llefarodd Duw fel hyn: 'Bydd ei ddisgynyddion yn alltudion mewn gwlad ddieithr, a ch�nt eu caethiwo a'u cam-drin am bedwar can mlynedd.

⁷And the nation to which they shall be in bondage will I judge, said God: and after that shall they come forth, and serve me in this place.

⁷ Ac fe ddof fi � barn ar y genedl y byddant yn ei gwasanaethu,' meddai Duw, 'ac wedi hynny d�nt allan, ac addolant fi yn y lle hwn.'

⁸And he gave him the covenant of circumcision: and so [Abraham] begat Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac [begat] Jacob, and Jacob the twelve patriarchs.

⁸ A rhoddodd iddo gyfamod enwaediad. Felly, wedi geni iddo Isaac enwaedodd arno yr wythfed dydd. Ac i Isaac ganwyd Jacob, ac i Jacob y deuddeg patriarch.

⁹And the patriarchs, moved with jealousy against Joseph, sold him into Egypt: and God was with him,

⁹ "Cenfigennodd y patriarchiaid wrth Joseff a'i werthu i'r Aifft. Ond yr oedd Duw gydag ef,

¹⁰and delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favor and wisdom before Pharaoh king of Egypt; and he made him governor over Egypt and all his house.

¹⁰ ac achubodd ef o'i holl gyfyngderau, a rhoddodd iddo ffafr a doethineb yng ngolwg Pharo brenin yr Aifft, a gosododd yntau ef yn llywodraethwr dros yr Aifft a thros ei holl du375?.

¹¹Now there came a famine over all Egypt and Canaan, and great affliction: and our fathers found no sustenance.

¹¹ Daeth newyn ar yr Aifft i gyd ac ar Ganaan; yr oedd yn gyfyngder mawr, ac ni allai ein hynafiaid gael lluniaeth.

¹²But when Jacob heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent forth our fathers the first time.

¹² Ond clywodd Jacob fod bwyd yn yr Aifft, ac anfonodd ein tadau yno y tro cyntaf.

¹³And at the second time Joseph was made known to his brethren; and Joseph's race became manifest unto Pharaoh.

¹³ Yr ail dro fe adnabuwyd Joseff gan ei frodyr, a daeth tylwyth Joseff yn hysbys i Pharo.

¹⁴And Joseph sent, and called to him Jacob his father, and all his kindred, threescore and fifteen souls.

¹⁴ Anfonodd Joseff, a galw Jacob ei dad ato, a'i holl berthnasau yn saithdeg pump o bobl i gyd.

¹⁵And Jacob went down into Egypt; and he died, himself and our fathers;

¹⁵ Ac aeth Jacob i lawr i'r Aifft. Bu farw ef a'n tadau,

¹⁶and they were carried over unto Shechem, and laid in the tomb that Abraham bought for a price in silver of the sons of Hamor in Shechem.

¹⁶ a symudwyd hwy yn �l i Sichem, a'u claddu yn y bedd yr oedd Abraham wedi ei brynu am arian gan feibion Emor yn Sichem.

¹⁷But as the time of the promise drew nigh which God vouchsafed unto Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,

¹⁷ "Fel yr oedd yr amser yn agos�u i gyflawni'r addewid yr oedd Duw wedi ei rhoi i Abraham, cynyddodd y bobl a lluosogi yn yr Aifft,

¹⁸till there arose another king over Egypt, who knew not Joseph.

¹⁸ nes i frenin gwahanol godi ar yr Aifft, un na wyddai ddim am Joseff.

¹⁹The same dealt craftily with our race, and ill-treated our fathers, that they should cast out their babes to the end they might not live.

¹⁹ Bu hwn yn ddichellgar wrth ein cenedl ni, gan gam�drin ein hynafiaid, a pheri bwrw eu babanod allan fel na chedwid mohonynt yn fyw.

²⁰At which season Moses was born, and was exceeding fair; and he was nourished three months in his father's house.

²⁰ Y pryd hwnnw y ganwyd Moses, ac yr oedd yn blentyn cymeradwy yng ngolwg Duw. Magwyd ef am dri mis yn nhu375? ei dad,

²¹and when he was cast out, Pharaoh's daughter took him up, and nourished him for her own son.

²¹ a phan fwriwyd ef allan, cymerodd merch Pharo ef ati, a'i fagu yn fab iddi hi ei hun.

²²And Moses was instructed in all the wisdom of the Egyptians; and he was mighty in his words and works.

²² Hyfforddwyd Moses yn holl ddoethineb yr Eifftwyr, ac yr oedd yn nerthol yn ei eiriau a'i weithredoedd.

²³But when he was well-nigh forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren the children of Israel.

²³ "Yn ystod ei ddeugeinfed flwyddyn, cododd awydd arno i ymweld �'i gyd-genedl, plant Israel.

²⁴And seeing one [of them] suffer wrong, he defended him, and avenged him that was oppressed, smiting the Egyptian:

²⁴ Pan welodd un ohonynt yn cael cam, fe'i hamddiffynnodd, a dialodd gam y dyn oedd dan orthrwm trwy daro'r Eifftiwr.

²⁵and he supposed that his brethren understood that God by his hand was giving them deliverance; but they understood not.

²⁵ Yr oedd yn tybio y byddai ei bobl ei hun yn deall fod Duw trwyddo ef yn rhoi gwaredigaeth iddynt. Ond nid oeddent yn deall.

²⁶And the day following he appeared unto them as they strove, and would have set them at one again, saying, Sirs, ye are brethren; why do ye wrong one to another?

²⁶ Trannoeth daeth ar draws dau ohonynt yn ymladd, a cheisiodd eu cymodi a chael heddwch, gan ddweud, 'Ddynion, brodyr ydych; pam y gwnewch gam �'ch gilydd?'

²⁷But he that did his neighbor wrong thrust him away, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge over us?

²⁷ Ond dyma'r un oedd yn gwneud cam �'i gymydog yn ei wthio i ffwrdd, gan ddweud, 'Pwy a'th benododd di yn llywodraethwr ac yn farnwr arnom ni?

²⁸Wouldest thou kill me, as thou killedst the Egyptian yesterday?

²⁸ A wyt ti am fy lladd i fel y lleddaist yr Eifftiwr ddoe?'

²⁹And Moses fled at this saying, and became a sojourner in the land of Midian, where he begat two sons.

²⁹ A ffodd Moses ar y gair hwn, ac aeth yn alltud yn nhir Midian, lle y ganwyd iddo ddau fab.

³⁰And when forty years were fulfilled, an angel appeared to him in the wilderness of Mount Sinai, in a flame of fire in a bush.

³⁰ "Ymhen deugain mlynedd, fe ymddangosodd iddo yn anialwch Mynydd Sinai angel mewn fflam d�n mewn perth.

³¹And when Moses saw it, he wondered at the sight: and as he drew near to behold, there came a voice of the Lord,

³¹ Pan welodd Moses ef, bu ryfedd ganddo'r olygfa. Wrth iddo nesu i edrych yn fanwl, daeth llais yr Arglwydd:

³²I am the God of thy fathers, the God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob. And Moses trembled, and durst not behold.

³² 'Myfi yw Duw dy dadau, Duw Abraham a Duw Isaac a Duw Jacob.' Cafodd Moses fraw, ac ni feiddiai edrych.

³³And the Lord said unto him, Loose the shoes from thy feet: for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground.

³³ Yna dywedodd yr Arglwydd wrtho, 'Datod dy sandalau oddi am dy draed, oherwydd y mae'r lle'r wyt yn sefyll arno yn dir sanctaidd.

³⁴I have surely seen the affliction of my people that is in Egypt, and have heard their groaning, and I am come down to deliver them: and now come, I will send thee into Egypt.

³⁴ Gwelais, do, gwelais sut y mae fy mhobl sydd yn yr Aifft yn cael eu cam�drin, a chlywais eu griddfan, a deuthum i lawr i'w gwaredu. Yn awr tyrd, imi gael dy anfon di i'r Aifft.'

³⁵This Moses whom they refused, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge? him hath God sent [to be] both a ruler and a deliverer with the hand of the angel that appeared to him in the bush.

³⁵ Y Moses hwn, y gu373?r a wrthodasant gan ddweud, 'Pwy a'th benododd di yn llywodraethwr ac yn farnwr?' � hwnnw a anfonodd Duw yn llywodraethwr ac yn rhyddhawr, trwy law'r angel a ymddangosodd iddo yn y berth.

³⁶This man led them forth, having wrought wonders and signs in Egypt, and in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness forty years.

³⁶ Hwn a'u harweiniodd hwy allan, gan wneud rhyfeddodau ac arwyddion yng ngwlad yr Aifft ac yn y M�r Coch, ac am ddeugain mlynedd yn yr anialwch.

³⁷This is that Moses, who said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall God raise up unto you from among your brethren, like unto me.

³⁷ Hwn yw'r Moses a ddywedodd wrth blant Israel, 'Bydd Duw yn codi i chwi o blith eich cyd-genedl broffwyd, fel y cododd fi.'

³⁸This is he that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel that spake to him in the Mount Sinai, and with our fathers: who received living oracles to give unto us:

³⁸ Hwn yw'r un a fu yn y gynulleidfa yn yr anialwch, gyda'r angel a lefarodd wrtho ar Fynydd Sinai a chyda'n hynafiaid ni. Derbyniodd ef oraclau byw i'w rhoi i chwi.

³⁹to whom our fathers would not be obedient, but thrust him from them, and turned back in their hearts unto Egypt,

³⁹ Eithr ni fynnodd ein hynafiaid ymddarostwng iddo, ond ei wthio o'r ffordd a wnaethant, a throi'n �l yn eu calonnau at yr Aifft,

⁴⁰saying unto Aaron, Make us gods that shall go before us: for as for this Moses, who led us forth out of the land of Egypt, we know not what is become of him.

⁴⁰ gan ddweud wrth Aaron, 'Gwna inni dduwiau i fynd o'n blaen; oherwydd y Moses yma, a ddaeth � ni allan o wlad yr Aifft, ni wyddom beth a ddigwyddodd iddo.'

⁴¹And they made a calf in those days, and brought a sacrifice unto the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their hands.

⁴¹ Gwnaethant lo y pryd hwnnw, ac offrymu aberth i'r eilun, ac ymlawenhau yng nghynnyrch eu dwylo eu hunain.

⁴²But God turned, and gave them up to serve the host of heaven; as it is written in the book of the prophets, Did ye offer unto me slain beasts and sacrifices Forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?

⁴² A throes Duw ymaith, a'u rhoi i fyny i addoli s�r y nef, fel y mae'n ysgrifenedig yn llyfr y proffwydi: 'A offrymasoch i mi laddedigion ac aberthau am ddeugain mlynedd yn yr anialwch, du375? Israel?

⁴³And ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, And the star of the god Rephan, The figures which ye made to worship them: And I will carry you away beyond Babylon.

⁴³ Na yn wir, dyrchafasoch babell Moloch, a seren eich duw Raiffan, y delwau a wnaethoch i'w haddoli. Alltudiaf chwi y tu hwnt i Fabilon.'

⁴⁴Our fathers had the tabernacle of the testimony in the wilderness, even as he appointed who spake unto Moses, that he should make it according to the figure that he had seen.

⁴⁴ "Yr oedd pabell y dystiolaeth gan ein hynafiaid yn yr anialwch, fel y gorchmynnodd yr hwn a lefarodd wrth Moses ei fod i'w llunio yn �l y patrwm yr oedd wedi ei weld.

⁴⁵Which also our fathers, in their turn, brought in with Joshua when they entered on the possession of the nations, that God thrust out before the face of our fathers, unto the days of David;

⁴⁵ Ac wedi ei derbyn yn eu tro, daeth ein hynafiaid � hi yma gyda Josua, wrth iddynt oresgyn y cenhedloedd a yrrodd Duw allan o'u blaenau. Ac felly y bu hyd ddyddiau Dafydd.

⁴⁶who found favor in the sight of God, and asked to find a habitation for the God of Jacob.

⁴⁶ Cafodd ef ffafr gerbron Duw, a deisyfodd am gael tabernacl i du375? Jacob.

⁴⁷But Solomon built him a house.

⁴⁷ Eithr Solomon oedd yr un a adeiladodd du375? iddo.

⁴⁸Howbeit the Most High dwelleth not in [houses] made with hands; as saith the prophet,

⁴⁸ Ond nid yw'r Goruchaf yn trigo mewn tai o waith llaw; fel y mae'r proffwyd yn dweud:

⁴⁹The heaven is my throne, And the earth the footstool of my feet: What manner of house will ye build me? saith the Lord: Or what is the place of my rest?

⁴⁹ 'Y nefoedd yw fy ngorsedd, a'r ddaear yw troedfainc fy nhraed. Pa fath du375? a adeiladwch imi, medd yr Arglwydd; ble fydd fy ngorffwysfa?

⁵⁰Did not my hand make all these things?

⁵⁰ Onid fy llaw i a wnaeth y pethau hyn oll?'

⁵¹Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Spirit: as your fathers did, so do ye.

⁵¹ "Chwi rai gwargaled a dienwaededig o galon a chlust, yr ydych chwi yn wastad yn gwrthwynebu'r Ysbryd Gl�n; fel eich hynafiaid, felly chwithau.

⁵²Which of the prophets did not your fathers persecute? and they killed them that showed before of the coming of the Righteous One; of whom ye have now become betrayers and murderers;

⁵² Prun o'r proffwydi na fu'ch hynafiaid yn ei erlid? Ie, lladdasant y rhai a ragfynegodd ddyfodiad yr Un Cyfiawn. A chwithau yn awr, bradwyr a llofruddion fuoch iddo ef,

⁵³ye who received the law as it was ordained by angels, and kept it not.

⁵³ chwi y rhai a dderbyniodd y Gyfraith yn �l cyfarwyddyd angylion, ac eto ni chadwasoch mohoni."

⁵⁴Now when they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed on him with their teeth.

⁵⁴ Wrth glywed y pethau hyn aethant yn ffyrnig yn eu calonnau, ac ysgyrnygu eu dannedd arno.

⁵⁵But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God,

⁵⁵ Yn llawn o'r Ysbryd Gl�n, syllodd Steffan tua'r nef a gwelodd ogoniant Duw, ac Iesu'n sefyll ar ddeheulaw Duw,

⁵⁶and said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of Man standing on the right hand of God.

⁵⁶ a dywedodd, "Edrychwch, 'rwy'n gweld y nefoedd yn agored, a Mab y Dyn yn sefyll ar ddeheulaw Duw."

⁵⁷But they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and rushed upon him with one accord;

⁵⁷ Rhoesant hwythau waedd uchel, a chau eu clustiau, a rhuthro'n unfryd arno,

⁵⁸and they cast him out of the city, and stoned him: and the witnesses laid down their garments at the feet of a young man named Saul.

⁵⁸ a'i fwrw allan o'r ddinas, a mynd ati i'w labyddio. Dododd y tystion eu dillad wrth draed dyn ifanc o'r enw Saul.

⁵⁹And they stoned Stephen, calling upon [the Lord], and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.

⁵⁹ Ac wrth iddynt ei labyddio, yr oedd Steffan yn galw, "Arglwydd Iesu, derbyn fy ysbryd."

⁶⁰And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep.

⁶⁰ Yna penliniodd, a gwaeddodd � llais uchel, "Arglwydd, paid � dal y pechod hwn yn eu herbyn." Ac wedi dweud hynny, fe hunodd.
