¹ Yn y drydedd flwyddyn i Cyrus brenin Persia rhoddwyd datguddiad i Daniel, a elwid Beltesassar. Yr oedd yn ddatguddiad gwir, er ei bod yn ymdrech fawr ei ddeall; ond rhoddwyd iddo ddeall trwy'r weledigaeth.

¹In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a thing was revealed unto Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the thing was true, but the time appointed was long: and he understood the thing, and had understanding of the vision.

² Yn y dyddiau hynny, yr oeddwn i, Daniel, mewn galar am dair wythnos.

²In those days I Daniel was mourning three full weeks.

³ Ni fwyteais ddanteithion ac ni chyffyrddais � chig na gwin, ac nid irais fy hun am y tair wythnos gyfan.

³I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine in my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.

⁴ Ar y pedwerydd ar hugain o'r mis cyntaf, a minnau'n eistedd ar lan yr afon fawr, afon Tigris,

⁴And in the four and twentieth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel;

⁵ codais fy ngolwg a gwelais ddyn wedi ei wisgo mewn lliain, a gwregys o aur Offir am ei ganol.

⁵Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz:

⁶ Yr oedd ei gorff fel maen beryl a'i wyneb fel mellt; yr oedd ei lygaid fel ffaglau t�n, ei freichiau a'i draed fel pres gloyw, a'i lais fel su373?n tyrfa.

⁶His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.

⁷ Myfi, Daniel, yn unig a welodd y weledigaeth; ni welodd y rhai oedd gyda mi mohoni, ond daeth arnynt ddychryn mawr a ffoesant i ymguddio.

⁷And I Daniel alone saw the vision: for the men that were with me saw not the vision; but a great quaking fell upon them, so that they fled to hide themselves.

⁸ Gadawyd fi ar fy mhen fy hun i edrych ar y weledigaeth fawr hon; pallodd fy nerth, newidiodd fy ngwedd yn arswydus, ac euthum yn wan.

⁸Therefore I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me: for my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength.

⁹ Fe'i clywais yn siarad, ac wrth wrando ar su373?n ei eiriau syrthiais ar fy hyd ar lawr mewn llewyg.

⁹Yet heard I the voice of his words: and when I heard the voice of his words, then was I in a deep sleep on my face, and my face toward the ground.

¹⁰ Yna cyffyrddodd llaw � mi, a'm gosod yn sigledig ar fy ngliniau a'm dwylo,

¹⁰And, behold, an hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands.

¹¹ a dywedodd wrthyf, "Daniel, cefaist ffafr; ystyria'r geiriau a lefaraf wrthyt, a saf ar dy draed, oherwydd anfonwyd fi atat." Pan lefarodd wrthyf, codais yn grynedig.

¹¹And he said unto me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak unto thee, and stand upright: for unto thee am I now sent. And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling.

¹² Yna dywedodd wrthyf, "Paid ag ofni, Daniel, oherwydd o'r dydd cyntaf y penderfynaist geisio deall ac ymostwng o flaen dy Dduw, clywyd dy eiriau; ac oherwydd hynny y deuthum i.

¹²Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words.

¹³ Am un diwrnod ar hugain bu tywysog teyrnas Persia yn sefyll yn f'erbyn; yna daeth Mihangel, un o'r prif dywysogion, i'm helpu, pan adawyd fi yno gyda thywysog brenhinoedd Persia.

¹³But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.

¹⁴ Deuthum i roi gwybod i ti beth a ddigwydd i'th bobl yn niwedd y dyddiau, oherwydd gweledigaeth am y dyfodol yw hon hefyd."

¹⁴Now I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days: for yet the vision is for many days.

¹⁵ Wedi iddo ddweud hyn wrthyf, ymgrymais hyd lawr heb ddweud dim.

¹⁵And when he had spoken such words unto me, I set my face toward the ground, and I became dumb.

¹⁶ Yna cyffyrddodd un tebyg i fod dynol �'m gwefusau, ac agorais fy ngenau i siarad, a dywedais wrth yr un oedd yn sefyll o'm blaen, "F'arglwydd, y mae fy ngofid yn fawr oherwydd y weledigaeth, a phallodd fy nerth.

¹⁶And, behold, one like the similitude of the sons of men touched my lips: then I opened my mouth, and spake, and said unto him that stood before me, O my lord, by the vision my sorrows are turned upon me, and I have retained no strength.

¹⁷ Sut y gall gwas f'arglwydd ddweud dim wrth f'arglwydd, a minnau yn awr heb nerth nac anadl ynof?"

¹⁷For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, straightway there remained no strength in me, neither is there breath left in me.

¹⁸ Unwaith eto cyffyrddodd yr un tebyg i fod dynol � mi a'm cryfhau,

¹⁸Then there came again and touched me one like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me,

¹⁹ a dweud, "Paid ag ofni, cefaist ffafr; heddwch i ti. Bydd wrol, bydd gryf." Ac fel yr oedd yn siarad � mi cefais nerth, a dywedais, "Llefara, f'arglwydd, oblegid rhoddaist nerth i mi."

¹⁹And said, O man greatly beloved, fear not: peace be unto thee, be strong, yea, be strong. And when he had spoken unto me, I was strengthened, and said, Let my lord speak; for thou hast strengthened me.

²⁰ Yna dywedodd, "A wyddost pam y deuthum atat? Dywedaf wrthyt beth sy'n ysgrifenedig yn llyfr y gwirionedd. Rwy'n dychwelyd yn awr i ymladd � thywysog Persia, ac wedyn fe ddaw tywysog Groeg.

²⁰Then said he, Knowest thou wherefore I come unto thee? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia: and when I am gone forth, lo, the prince of Grecia shall come.

²¹ Ac nid oes neb yn fy nghynorthwyo yn erbyn y rhai hyn ar wah�n i'ch tywysog Mihangel.

²¹But I will shew thee that which is noted in the scripture of truth: and there is none that holdeth with me in these things, but Michael your prince.
