¹ Priododd gu373?r o dylwyth Lefi ag un o ferched Lefi.

¹And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi.

² Beichiogodd hithau ac esgor ar fab, a phan welodd ei fod yn dlws, fe'i cuddiodd am dri mis.

²And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months.

³ Ond gan na allai ei guddio'n hwy, cymerodd gawell wedi ei wneud o lafrwyn a'i ddwbio � chlai a phyg; rhoddodd y plentyn ynddo a'i osod ymysg yr hesg ar lan y Neil.

³And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch, and put the child therein; and she laid it in the flags by the river's brink.

⁴ Yr oedd chwaer y plentyn yn sefyll nid nepell oddi wrtho er mwyn cael gwybod beth a ddigwyddai iddo.

⁴And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him.

⁵ Daeth merch Pharo i ymdrochi yn yr afon tra oedd ei morynion yn cerdded ar y lan, a phan welodd y cawell yng nghanol yr hesg, anfonodd un ohonynt i'w n�l.

⁵And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her maidens walked along by the river's side; and when she saw the ark among the flags, she sent her maid to fetch it.

⁶ Wedi iddi ei agor, fe welodd y plentyn, ac yr oedd y bachgen yn wylo. Tosturiodd hithau wrtho a dweud, "Un o blant yr Hebreaid yw hwn."

⁶And when she had opened it, she saw the child: and, behold, the babe wept. And she had compassion on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews' children.

⁷ Yna gofynnodd chwaer y plentyn i ferch Pharo, "A gaf fi fynd i chwilio am famaeth o blith gwragedd yr Hebreaid, iddi fagu'r plentyn iti?"

⁷Then said his sister to Pharaoh's daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee?

⁸ Atebodd merch Pharo, "Dos." Felly aeth y ferch ymaith a galw mam y plentyn.

⁸And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child's mother.

⁹ Dywedodd merch Pharo wrth honno, "Cymer y plentyn hwn a'i fagu imi, ac fe roddaf finnau d�l iti." Felly cymerodd y wraig y plentyn a'i fagu.

⁹And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her, Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give thee thy wages. And the women took the child, and nursed it.

¹⁰ Wedi i'r plentyn dyfu i fyny, aeth ag ef yn �l at ferch Pharo. Mabwysiadodd hithau ef a'i enwi'n Moses, oherwydd iddi ddweud, "Tynnais ef allan o'r du373?r."

¹⁰And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him out of the water.

¹¹ Un diwrnod, wedi i Moses dyfu i fyny, aeth allan at ei bobl ac edrych ar eu beichiau. Gwelodd Eifftiwr yn taro Hebr�wr, un o'i frodyr,

¹¹And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that he went out unto his brethren, and looked on their burdens: and he spied an Egyptian smiting an Hebrew, one of his brethren.

¹² ac wedi edrych o'i amgylch a gweld nad oedd neb yno, lladdodd Moses yr Eifftiwr a'i guddio yn y tywod.

¹²And he looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no man, he slew the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.

¹³ Pan aeth allan drannoeth a gweld dau Hebr�wr yn ymladd �'i gilydd, gofynnodd i'r un oedd ar fai, "Pam yr wyt yn taro dy gyfaill?"

¹³And when he went out the second day, behold, two men of the Hebrews strove together: and he said to him that did the wrong, Wherefore smitest thou thy fellow?

¹⁴ Atebodd yntau, "Pwy a'th benododd di yn bennaeth ac yn farnwr arnom? A wyt am fy lladd i fel y lleddaist yr Eifftiwr?" Daeth ofn ar Moses o sylweddoli fod y peth yn hysbys.

¹⁴And he said, Who made thee a prince and a judge over us? intendest thou to kill me, as thou killedst the Egyptian? And Moses feared, and said, Surely this thing is known.

¹⁵ Pan glywodd Pharo am hyn, ceisiodd ladd Moses, ond ffodd ef oddi wrtho a mynd i fyw i wlad Midian; ac yno eisteddodd i lawr yn ymyl pydew.

¹⁵Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land of Midian: and he sat down by a well.

¹⁶ Yr oedd gan offeiriad Midian saith o ferched, a daethant i godi du373?r er mwyn llenwi'r cafnau a dyfrhau defaid eu tad.

¹⁶Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters: and they came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father's flock.

¹⁷ Daeth bugeiliaid heibio a'u gyrru oddi yno, ond cododd Moses ar ei draed a'u cynorthwyo i ddyfrhau eu praidd.

¹⁷And the shepherds came and drove them away: but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.

¹⁸ Pan ddaeth y merched at Reuel eu tad, gofynnodd, "Sut y daethoch yn �l mor fuan heddiw?"

¹⁸And when they came to Reuel their father, he said, How is it that ye are come so soon to day?

¹⁹ Dywedasant hwythau, "Eifftiwr a ddaeth i'n hamddiffyn rhag y bugeiliaid, a chodi du373?r i ddyfrhau'r praidd."

¹⁹And they said, An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, and also drew water enough for us, and watered the flock.

²⁰ Yna gofynnodd yntau iddynt, "Ple mae'r dyn? Pam yr ydych wedi ei adael ar �l? Galwch arno, iddo gael tamaid i'w fwyta."

²⁰And he said unto his daughters, And where is he? why is it that ye have left the man? call him, that he may eat bread.

²¹ Cytunodd Moses i aros gyda'r gu373?r, a rhoddodd yntau ei ferch Seffora yn wraig iddo.

²¹And Moses was content to dwell with the man: and he gave Moses Zipporah his daughter.

²² Esgorodd hithau ar fab, a galwodd Moses ef yn Gersom, oherwydd dywedodd, "Dieithryn ydwyf mewn gwlad ddieithr."

²²And she bare him a son, and he called his name Gershom: for he said, I have been a stranger in a strange land.

²³ Yn ystod yr amser maith hwn, bu farw brenin yr Aifft. Ond yr oedd pobl Israel yn dal i riddfan oherwydd eu caethiwed, ac yn gweiddi am gymorth, a daeth eu gwaedd o achos eu caethiwed at Dduw.

²³And it came to pass in process of time, that the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by reason of the bondage.

²⁴ Clywodd Duw eu cwynfan, a chofiodd ei gyfamod ag Abraham, Isaac a Jacob;

²⁴And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.

²⁵ edrychodd ar bobl Israel ac ystyriodd eu cyflwr.

²⁵And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God had respect unto them.
