¹And the angel of Jehovah came up from Gilgal to Bochim. And he said, I made you to go up out of Egypt, and have brought you unto the land which I sware unto your fathers; and I said, I will never break my covenant with you:

¹ Aeth angel yr ARGLWYDD i fyny o Gilgal i Bochim, a dywedodd, "Dygais chwi allan o'r Aifft, a dod � chwi i'r wlad a addewais i'ch hynafiaid. Dywedais hefyd, 'Ni thorraf fy nghyfamod � chwi byth;

²and ye shall make no covenant with the inhabitants of this land; ye shall break down their altars. But ye have not hearkened unto my voice: why have ye done this?

² peidiwch chwithau � gwneud cyfamod � thrigolion y wlad hon, ond bwriwch i lawr eu hallorau.' Eto nid ydych wedi gwrando arnaf. Pam y gwnaethoch hyn?

³Wherefore I also said, I will not drive them out from before you; but they shall be [as thorns] in your sides, and their gods shall be a snare unto you.

³ Yr wyf wedi penderfynu na yrraf hwy allan o'ch blaen, ond byddant yn ddrain yn eich ystlysau, a'u duwiau yn fagl ichwi."

⁴And it came to pass, when the angel of Jehovah spake these words unto all the children of Israel, that the people lifted up their voice, and wept.

⁴ Pan lefarodd angel yr ARGLWYDD y geiriau hyn wrth yr holl Israeliaid, torrodd y bobl allan i wylo'n uchel.

⁵And they called the name of that place Bochim: and they sacrificed there unto Jehovah.

⁵ Am hynny enwyd y lle hwnnw Bochim; ac offrymasant yno aberth i'r ARGLWYDD.

⁶Now when Joshua had sent the people away, the children of Israel went every man unto his inheritance to possess the land.

⁶ Gollyngodd Josua y bobl ac aeth pob un o'r Israeliaid i'w etifeddiaeth i gymryd meddiant o'r wlad.

⁷And the people served Jehovah all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders that outlived Joshua, who had seen all the great work of Jehovah that he had wrought for Israel.

⁷ Addolodd y bobl yr ARGLWYDD holl ddyddiau Josua, a holl ddyddiau'r henuriaid oedd wedi goroesi Josua ac wedi gweld yr holl waith mawr a wnaeth yr ARGLWYDD dros Israel.

⁸And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Jehovah, died, being a hundred and ten years old.

⁸ Bu farw Josua fab Nun, gwas yr ARGLWYDD, yn gant a deg oed,

⁹And they buried him in the border of his inheritance in Timnath-heres, in the hill-country of Ephraim, on the north of the mountain of Gaash.

⁹ a chladdwyd ef o fewn terfynau ei etifeddiaeth, yn Timnath-heres ym mynydd-dir Effraim, i'r gogledd o Fynydd Gaas.

¹⁰And also all that generation were gathered unto their fathers: and there arose another generation after them, that knew not Jehovah, nor yet the work which he had wrought for Israel.

¹⁰ Casglwyd yr holl genhedlaeth honno at eu hynafiaid, a chododd cenhedlaeth arall ar eu h�l, nad oedd yn adnabod yr ARGLWYDD na chwaith yn gwybod am yr hyn a wnaeth dros Israel.

¹¹And the children of Israel did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, and served the Baalim;

¹¹ Gwnaeth yr Israeliaid yr hyn oedd ddrwg yng ngolwg yr ARGLWYDD; aethant i addoli'r Baalim,

¹²and they forsook Jehovah, the God of their fathers, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, of the gods of the peoples that were round about them, and bowed themselves down unto them: and they provoked Jehovah to anger.

¹² gan adael yr ARGLWYDD, Duw eu hynafiaid, a'u dygodd allan o wlad yr Aifft, a mynd ar �l duwiau estron o blith duwiau'r cenhedloedd oedd o'u cwmpas, ac ymgrymu iddynt hwy, a digio'r ARGLWYDD.

¹³And they forsook Jehovah, and served Baal and the Ashtaroth.

¹³ Gadawsant yr ARGLWYDD ac addoli Baal ac Astaroth.

¹⁴And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Israel, and he delivered them into the hands of spoilers that despoiled them; and he sold them into the hands of their enemies round about, so that they could not any longer stand before their enemies.

¹⁴ Cyneuodd llid yr ARGLWYDD yn erbyn Israel, a rhoddodd hwy yn llaw rhai a fu'n eu hanrheithio, a gwerthodd hwy i law eu gelynion oddi amgylch, fel nad oeddent bellach yn medru gwrthsefyll eu gelynion.

¹⁵Whithersoever they went out, the hand of Jehovah was against them for evil, as Jehovah had spoken, and as Jehovah had sworn unto them: and they were sore distressed.

¹⁵ I ble bynnag yr aent, yr oedd llaw yr ARGLWYDD yn eu herbyn er drwg, fel yr oedd wedi addo a thyngu iddynt. Ac aeth yn gyfyng iawn arnynt.

¹⁶And Jehovah raised up judges, who saved them out of the hand of those that despoiled them.

¹⁶ Yna fe gododd yr ARGLWYDD farnwyr a'u hachubodd o law eu hanrheithwyr.

¹⁷And yet they hearkened not unto their judges; for they played the harlot after other gods, and bowed themselves down unto them: they turned aside quickly out of the way wherein their fathers walked, obeying the commandments of Jehovah; [but] they did not so.

¹⁷ Eto nid oeddent yn gwrando hyd yn oed ar eu barnwyr, ond yn hytrach yn puteinio ar �l duwiau estron ac yn ymgrymu iddynt, gan gefnu'n fuan ar y ffordd a gerddodd eu hynafiaid mewn ufudd-dod i orchmynion yr ARGLWYDD; ni wnaent hwy felly.

¹⁸And when Jehovah raised them up judges, then Jehovah was with the judge, and saved them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge: for it repented Jehovah because of their groaning by reason of them that oppressed them and vexed them.

¹⁸ Pan fyddai'r ARGLWYDD yn codi barnwr iddynt, byddai ef gyda'r barnwr ac yn eu gwaredu o law eu gelynion holl ddyddiau y barnwr hwnnw; oherwydd byddai'r ARGLWYDD yn tosturio wrthynt yn eu griddfan o achos eu gormeswyr a'u cystuddwyr.

¹⁹But it came to pass, when the judge was dead, that they turned back, and dealt more corruptly than their fathers, in following other gods to serve them, and to bow down unto them; they ceased not from their doings, nor from their stubborn way.

¹⁹ Eto, pan fyddai farw'r barnwr, yn �l yr aent ac ymddwyn yn fwy llygredig na'u hynafiaid, gan fynd ar �l duwiau estron i'w haddoli ac ymgrymu iddynt, heb roi heibio yr un o'u harferion na'u ffyrdd gwrthnysig.

²⁰And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Israel; and he said, Because this nation have transgressed my covenant which I commanded their fathers, and have not hearkened unto my voice;

²⁰ Cyneuodd llid yr ARGLWYDD yn erbyn Israel, a dywedodd, "Am i'r genedl hon droseddu fy nghyfamod a orchmynnais i'w hynafiaid, heb wrando ar fy llais,

²¹I also will not henceforth drive out any from before them of the nations that Joshua left when he died;

²¹ nid wyf finnau am ddisodli o'u blaen yr un o'r cenhedloedd a adawodd Josua pan fu farw."

²²that by them I may prove Israel, whether they will keep the way of Jehovah to walk therein, as their fathers did keep it, or not.

²² Gadawyd hwy i brofi'r Israeliaid, i weld a fyddent yn cadw ffordd yr ARGLWYDD ai peidio, ac yn rhodio ynddi fel y gwnaeth eu hynafiaid.

²³So Jehovah left those nations, without driving them out hastily; neither delivered he them into the hand of Joshua.

²³ Gadawodd yr ARGLWYDD y cenhedloedd hyn heb eu disodli ar unwaith, na'u rhoi yn llaw Josua.
