¹ "Yn awr, dos i mewn i'th gaer, ti ferch gaerog; y mae gwarchae wedi ei osod yn ein herbyn; trewir barnwr Israel ar ei foch � ffon."

¹Now gather thyself in troops, O daughter of troops: he hath laid siege against us: they shall smite the judge of Israel with a rod upon the cheek.

² Ond ti, Bethlehem Effrata, sy'n fechan i fod ymhlith llwythau Jwda, ohonot ti y daw allan i mi un i fod yn llywodraethwr yn Israel, a'i darddiad yn y gorffennol, mewn dyddiau gynt.

²But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.

³ Felly fe'u gedy hyd amser esgor yr un feichiog, ac yna fe ddychwel y rhai fydd yn weddill yn Israel at eu tylwyth.

³Therefore will he give them up, until the time that she which travaileth hath brought forth: then the remnant of his brethren shall return unto the children of Israel.

⁴ Fe saif ac arwain y praidd yn nerth yr ARGLWYDD, ac ym mawredd enw'r ARGLWYDD ei Dduw. A byddant yn ddiogel, oherwydd bydd ef yn fawr hyd derfynau'r ddaear;

⁴And he shall stand and feed in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the name of the LORD his God; and they shall abide: for now shall he be great unto the ends of the earth.

⁵ ac yna bydd heddwch. Pan ddaw Asyria i'n gwlad, a cherdded hyd ein tir, codwn yn ei erbyn saith o fugeiliaid ac wyth o arweinwyr pobl.

⁵And this man shall be the peace, when the Assyrian shall come into our land: and when he shall tread in our palaces, then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, and eight principal men.

⁶ A bugeiliant Asyria �'r cleddyf, a thir Nimrod �'r cleddyf noeth; fe'n gwaredant oddi wrth Asyria pan ddaw i'n gwlad a sarnu'n terfynau.

⁶And they shall waste the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod in the entrances thereof: thus shall he deliver us from the Assyrian, when he cometh into our land, and when he treadeth within our borders.

⁷ A bydd gweddill Jacob yng nghanol pobloedd lawer, fel gwlith oddi wrth yr ARGLWYDD, fel cawodydd ar laswellt, nad ydynt yn disgwyl wrth ddyn, nac yn aros am feibion dynion.

⁷And the remnant of Jacob shall be in the midst of many people as a dew from the LORD, as the showers upon the grass, that tarrieth not for man, nor waiteth for the sons of men.

⁸ A bydd gweddill Jacob ymhlith y cenhedloedd, ac yng nghanol pobloedd lawer, fel llew ymysg anifeiliaid y goedwig, fel llew ifanc ymhlith diadelloedd defaid, sydd, wrth fynd heibio, yn mathru ac yn malurio, heb neb i waredu.

⁸And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the Gentiles in the midst of many people as a lion among the beasts of the forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep: who, if he go through, both treadeth down, and teareth in pieces, and none can deliver.

⁹ Bydd dy law wedi ei chodi yn erbyn dy wrthwynebwyr, a thorrir ymaith dy holl elynion.

⁹Thine hand shall be lifted up upon thine adversaries, and all thine enemies shall be cut off.

¹⁰ "Yn y dydd hwnnw," medd yr ARGLWYDD, "distrywiaf dy feirch o'ch plith, a dinistriaf dy gerbydau.

¹⁰And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD, that I will cut off thy horses out of the midst of thee, and I will destroy thy chariots:

¹¹ Distrywiaf ddinasoedd dy wlad, a mathraf dy holl geyrydd.

¹¹And I will cut off the cities of thy land, and throw down all thy strong holds:

¹² Distrywiaf swyngyfaredd o'th afael, ac ni fydd gennyt ddewiniaid.

¹²And I will cut off witchcrafts out of thine hand; and thou shalt have no more soothsayers:

¹³ Distrywiaf dy gerfddelwau a'th golofnau o'ch mysg, a mwyach nid addoli waith dy ddwylo dy hun.

¹³Thy graven images also will I cut off, and thy standing images out of the midst of thee; and thou shalt no more worship the work of thine hands.

¹⁴ Diwreiddiaf y prennau Asera yn eich plith, a dinistriaf dy ddinasoedd.

¹⁴And I will pluck up thy groves out of the midst of thee: so will I destroy thy cities.

¹⁵ Mewn llid a digofaint fe ddialaf ar yr holl genhedloedd na fuont yn ufudd."

¹⁵And I will execute vengeance in anger and fury upon the heathen, such as they have not heard.
