¹Now it came to pass in the days of Ahasuerus (this is Ahasuerus who reigned from India even unto Ethiopia, over a hundred and seven and twenty provinces),

¹ Digwyddodd y pethau a ganlyn yn amser Ahasferus, yr Ahasferus oedd yn teyrnasu ar gant dau ddeg a saith o daleithiau, o India i Ethiopia.

²that in those days, when the king Ahasuerus sat on the throne of his kingdom, which was in Shushan the palace,

² Yn ystod y cyfnod hwnnw, yn nhrydedd flwyddyn ei deyrnasiad, ac yntau'n teyrnasu ar ei orsedd yn Susan y brifddinas,

³in the third year of his reign, he made a feast unto all his princes and his servants; the power of Persia and Media, the nobles and princes of the provinces, being before him;

³ gwnaeth y Brenin Ahasferus wledd i'w holl dywysogion a'i weinidogion. Daeth byddin y Persiaid a'r Mediaid, y penaethiaid a thywysogion y taleithiau o'i flaen,

⁴when he showed the riches of his glorious kingdom and the honor of his excellent majesty many days, even a hundred and fourscore days.

⁴ a threuliodd yntau amser maith, sef cant wyth deg o ddyddiau, yn dangos iddynt gyfoeth ei deyrnas odidog ac ysblander gogoneddus ei fawredd.

⁵And when these days were fulfilled, the king made a feast unto all the people that were present in Shushan the palace, both great and small, seven days, in the court of the garden of the king's palace.

⁵ Pan ddaeth yr amser hwn i ben, gwnaeth y brenin wledd a barodd am saith diwrnod yn y cwrt yng ngardd ei du375? i bawb, o'r lleiaf hyd y mwyaf, oedd yn byw yn Susan y brifddinas.

⁶[There were hangings of] white [cloth], [of] green, and [of] blue, fastened with cords of fine linen and purple to silver rings and pillars of marble: the couches were of gold and silver, upon a pavement of red, and white, and yellow, and black marble.

⁶ Yr oedd yno lenni gwyn a glas wedi eu rhwymo � llinynnau o sidan a phorffor wrth gadwynau arian ar golofnau marmor. Yr oedd yno welyau o aur ac arian ar lawr o risial, marmor, alabastr a glasfaen gwerthfawr.

⁷And they gave them drink in vessels of gold (the vessels being diverse one from another), and royal wine in abundance, according to the bounty of the king.

⁷ Yr oedd cwpanau aur o wahanol fathau i yfed ohonynt, ac yr oedd digonedd o win trwy haelioni'r brenin.

⁸And the drinking was according to the law; none could compel: for so the king had appointed to all the officers of his house, that they should do according to every man's pleasure.

⁸ Ynglu375?n �'r yfed, nid oedd gorfodaeth ar neb, oherwydd gorchmynnodd y brenin i holl swyddogion ei balas wneud fel yr oedd pawb yn dymuno.

⁹Also Vashti the queen made a feast for the women in the royal house which belonged to king Ahasuerus.

⁹ Gwnaeth y Frenhines Fasti hefyd wledd i'r gwragedd ym mhalas y Brenin Ahasferus.

¹⁰On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was merry with wine, he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, and Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcas, the seven chamberlains that ministered in the presence of Ahasuerus the king,

¹⁰ Ar y seithfed dydd, pan oedd y Brenin Ahasferus yn llawen gan win, rhoddodd orchymyn i Mehuman, Bistha, Harbona, Bigtha, Abagtha, Sethar a Carcas, y saith eunuch oedd yn gweini arno,

¹¹to bring Vashti the queen before the king with the crown royal, to show the peoples and the princes her beauty; for she was fair to look on.

¹¹ i ddod �'r Frenhines Fasti ato yn gwisgo ei choron frenhinol, er mwyn dangos ei phrydferthwch i'r bobl a'r tywysogion, oherwydd yr oedd yn brydferth iawn.

¹²But the queen Vashti refused to come at the king's commandment by the chamberlains: therefore was the king very wroth, and his anger burned in him.

¹² Ond gwrthododd y Frenhines Fasti ddod ar orchymyn y brenin trwy'r eunuchiaid. Felly gwylltiodd y brenin yn ddirfawr a chyneuodd ei lid.

¹³Then the king said to the wise men, who knew the times, (for so was the king's manner toward all that knew law and judgment;

¹³ Gan mai arfer y brenin oedd troi at y rhai oedd yn deall cyfraith a barn, fe ymgynghorodd �'r doethion oedd yn deall y gyfraith.

¹⁴and the next unto him were Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, and Memucan, the seven princes of Persia and Media, who saw the king's face, and sat first in the kingdom),

¹⁴ Ei gynghorwyr mwyaf blaenllaw oedd Carsena, Sethar, Admatha, Tarsis, Meres, Marsena a Memuchan, saith dywysog Persia a Media; hwy oedd agosaf at y brenin, a'r dynion mwyaf blaenllaw yn y deyrnas.

¹⁵What shall we do unto the queen Vashti according to law, because she hath not done the bidding of the king Ahasuerus by the chamberlains?

¹⁵ Gofynnodd iddynt, "Beth, yn �l y gyfraith, sydd i'w wneud �'r Frenhines Fasti am iddi anufuddhau i orchymyn y Brenin Ahasferus trwy'r eunuchiaid?"

¹⁶And Memucan answered before the king and the princes, Vashti the queen hath not done wrong to the king only, but also to all the princes, and to all the peoples that are in all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus.

¹⁶ Atebodd Memuchan yng ngu373?ydd y brenin a'r tywysogion, "Nid �'r Brenin Ahasferus yn unig y mae'r Frenhines Fasti wedi gwneud cam, ond �'r holl dywysogion a'r bobl ym mhob un o daleithiau'r brenin.

¹⁷For this deed of the queen will come abroad unto all women, to make their husbands contemptible in their eyes, when it shall be reported, The king Ahasuerus commanded Vashti the queen to be brought in before him, but she came not.

¹⁷ Oherwydd daw pob gwraig i wybod am yr hyn a wnaeth y frenhines, ac o ganlyniad fe ddirmygant eu gwu375?r a dweud, 'Gorchmynnodd y Brenin Ahasferus ddod �'r Frenhines Fasti ato, ond ni ddaeth hi.'

¹⁸And this day will the princesses of Persia and Media who have heard of the deed of the queen say [the like] unto all the king's princes. So [will there arise] much contempt and wrath.

¹⁸ Heddiw bydd tywysogesau Persia a Media, sydd wedi clywed am weithred y frenhines, yn rhoi yr un ateb i holl dywysogion y brenin, ac yna bydd dirmyg a dicter diddiwedd.

¹⁹If it please the king, let there go forth a royal commandment from him, and let it be written among the laws of the Persians and the Medes, that it be not altered, that Vashti come no more before king Ahasuerus; and let the king give her royal estate unto another that is better than she.

¹⁹ Gyda chydsyniad y brenin, gwneler datganiad brenhinol, a'i ysgrifennu yn neddfau'r Persiaid a'r Mediaid fel na chaiff ei newid, nad yw Fasti i ddod mwyach i u373?ydd y Brenin Ahasferus; a rhodded y brenin ei swydd frenhinol hi i un arall sy'n rhagori arni.

²⁰And when the king's decree which he shall make shall be published throughout all his kingdom (for it is great), all the wives will give to their husbands honor, both to great and small.

²⁰ Pan glywir trwy'r holl deyrnas, er mor fawr ydyw, y gorchymyn a wnaeth y brenin, bydd pob gwraig, o'r leiaf hyd y fwyaf, yn parchu ei gu373?r."

²¹And the saying pleased the king and the princes; and the king did according to the word of Memucan:

²¹ Yr oedd cyngor Memuchan yn dderbyniol gan y brenin a'r tywysogion, a gwnaeth y brenin fel yr awgrymodd.

²²for he sent letters into all the king's provinces, into every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people after their language, that every man should bear rule in his own house, and should speak according to the language of his people.

²² Anfonwyd llythyrau i holl daleithiau'r brenin, i bob talaith yn ei hysgrifen ei hun a phob cenedl yn ei hiaith ei hun, er mwyn sicrhau bod pob dyn, beth bynnag ei iaith, yn feistr ar ei du375? ei hun.
