¹ Mynegwyd i Ddafydd fod y Philistiaid yn ymladd yn erbyn Ceila, ac yn ysbeilio'r lloriau dyrnu.

¹And they declare to David, saying, `Lo, the Philistines are fighting against Keilah, and they are spoiling the threshing-floors.`

² Ymofynnodd Dafydd �'r ARGLWYDD, a oedd i fynd a tharo'r Philistiaid hyn. Dywedodd yr ARGLWYDD wrth Ddafydd, "Dos a tharo'r Philistiaid, ac achub Ceila."

²And David asketh at Jehovah, saying, `Do I go? — and have I smitten among these Philistines?` And Jehovah saith unto David, `Go, and thou hast smitten among the Philistines, and saved Keilah.`

³ Ond dywedodd gwu375?r Dafydd wrtho, "Yr ydym mewn digon o ofn yma yn Jwda; pa faint mwy pan awn i Ceila, yn erbyn byddinoedd y Philistiaid?"

³And David`s men say unto him, `Lo, we here in Judah are afraid; and how much more when we go to Keilah, unto the ranks of the Philistines?`

⁴ Felly ymofynnodd Dafydd eto �'r ARGLWYDD, ac atebodd yr ARGLWYDD ef, "Dos i lawr i Ceila, oherwydd rhoddaf y Philistiaid yn dy law."

⁴And David addeth again to ask at Jehovah, and Jehovah answereth him, and saith, `Rise, go down to Keilah, for I am giving the Philistines into thy hand.`

⁵ Felly fe aeth Dafydd a'i wu375?r i Ceila ac ymladd �'r Philistiaid, a mynd �'u gwartheg ymaith, a gwneud lladdfa fawr yn eu mysg hwy; ac achubodd Dafydd drigolion Ceila.

⁵And David goeth, and his men, to Keilah, and fighteth with the Philistines, and leadeth away their cattle, and smiteth among them — a great smiting, and David saveth the inhabitants of Keilah.

⁶ Pan ffodd Abiathar fab Ahimelech at Ddafydd i Ceila, daeth �'r effod i lawr gydag ef.

⁶And it cometh to pass, in the fleeing of Abiathar son of Ahimelech unto David, to Keilah, an ephod came down in his hand.

⁷ A phan fynegwyd i Saul fod Dafydd wedi mynd i Ceila, dywedodd Saul, "Y mae Duw wedi ei roi yn fy llaw, oherwydd y mae wedi cau amdano wrth fynd i ddinas ac iddi byrth a barrau."

⁷And it is declared to Saul that David hath come in to Keilah, and Saul saith, `God hath made him known for my hand, for he hath been shut in, to enter into a city of doors and bar.`

⁸ Galwodd Saul yr holl bobl i ryfel, ac i fynd i lawr i Ceila i warchae ar Ddafydd a'i wu375?r.

⁸And Saul summoneth the whole of the people to battle, to go down to Keilah, to lay siege unto David and unto his men.

⁹ Pan ddeallodd Dafydd fod Saul yn cynllunio drwg yn ei erbyn, dywedodd wrth yr offeiriad Abiathar, "Estyn yr effod."

⁹And David knoweth that against him Saul is devising the evil, and saith unto Abiathar the priest, `Bring nigh the ephod.`

¹⁰ Yna dywedodd Dafydd, "O ARGLWYDD Dduw Israel, y mae dy was wedi clywed yn bendant fod Saul yn ceisio dod i Ceila i ddinistrio'r dref o'm hachos i.

¹⁰And David saith, `Jehovah, God of Israel, Thy servant hath certainly heard that Saul is seeking to come in unto Keilah, to destroy the city on mine account.

¹¹ A fydd awdurdodau Ceila yn fy rhoi iddo? A ddaw Saul i lawr fel y clywodd dy was? O ARGLWYDD Dduw Israel, rho ateb i'th was." Atebodd yr ARGLWYDD, "Fe ddaw."

¹¹Do the possessors of Keilah shut me up into his hand? doth Saul come down as Thy servant hath heard? Jehovah, God of Israel, declare, I pray Thee, to Thy servant.` And Jehovah saith, `He doth come down.`

¹² Yna gofynnodd Dafydd, "A fydd awdurdodau Ceila yn fy rhoi i a'm gwu375?r yn llaw Saul?" Atebodd yr ARGLWYDD, "Byddant." Yna cododd Dafydd gyda'i wu375?r, tua chwe chant ohonynt, ac aethant o Ceila a symud o le i le.

¹²And David saith, `Do the possessors of Keilah shut me up, and my men, into the hand of Saul?` And Jehovah saith, `They shut [thee] up.`

¹³ Pan ddywedwyd wrth Saul fod Dafydd wedi dianc o Ceila, peidiodd � chychwyn allan.

¹³And David riseth — and his men — about six hundred men, and they go out from Keilah, and go up and down where they go up and down; and to Saul it hath been declared that David hath escaped from Keilah, and he ceaseth to go out.

¹⁴ Tra oedd Dafydd yn byw mewn llochesau yn y diffeithwch ac yn aros yn y mynydd-dir yn niffeithwch Siff, yr oedd Saul yn chwilio amdano trwy'r adeg, ond ni roddodd Duw ef yn ei law.

¹⁴And David abideth in the wilderness, in fortresses, and abideth in the hill-country, in the wilderness of Ziph; and Saul seeketh him all the days, and God hath not given him into his hand.

¹⁵ Yr oedd Dafydd yn gweld mai dod allan i geisio'i fywyd yr oedd Saul; felly arhosodd Dafydd yn Hores yn niffeithwch Siff.

¹⁵And David seeth that Saul hath come out to seek his life, and David [is] in the wilderness of Ziph, in a forest.

¹⁶ Aeth Jonathan fab Saul draw i Hores at Ddafydd a'i galonogi trwy Dduw

¹⁶And Jonathan son of Saul riseth, and goeth unto David to the forest, and strengtheneth his hand in God,

¹⁷ a dweud wrtho, "Paid ag ofni; ni ddaw fy nhad Saul o hyd iti; byddi di'n frenin ar Israel a minnau'n ail iti, ac y mae fy nhad Saul yn gwybod hynny'n iawn."

¹⁷and saith unto him, `Fear not, for the hand of Saul my father doth not find thee, and thou dost reign over Israel, and I am to thee for second, and also so knoweth Saul my father.`

¹⁸ Gwnaethant gyfamod ill dau gerbron yr ARGLWYDD; arhosodd Dafydd yn Hores, ac aeth Jonathan adref.

¹⁸And they make a covenant both of them before Jehovah; and David abideth in the forest, and Jonathan hath gone to his house.

¹⁹ Aeth pobl Siff at Saul i Gibea a dweud, "Onid yw Dafydd yn ymguddio yn ein hardal, yn llochesau Hores ym mryniau Hachila i'r de o Jesimon?

¹⁹And the Ziphites go up unto Saul to Gibeah, saying, `Is not David hiding himself with us in fortresses, in the forest, in the height of Hachilah, which [is] on the south of the desolate place?

²⁰ Pryd bynnag yr wyt ti'n dymuno, O frenin, tyrd i lawr, a rhown ninnau ef yn llaw'r brenin."

²⁰And, now, by all the desire of thy soul, O king, to come down, come down, and ours [is] to shut him up into the hand of the king.`

²¹ Ac meddai Saul, "Bendigedig fyddoch gan yr ARGLWYDD am ichwi drugarhau wrthyf.

²¹And Saul saith, `Blessed [are] ye of Jehovah, for ye have pity on me;

²² Ewch yn awr a gwneud yn sicr eto; ceisiwch wybod a gwylio'i lwybrau, a phwy a'i gwelodd yno. Dywedir wrthyf ei fod yn un cyfrwys iawn.

²²go, I pray you, prepare yet, and know and see his place where his foot is; who hath seen him there? for [one] hath said unto me, He is very subtile.

²³ Wedi ichwi weld a gwybod ym mha un o'r holl guddfannau y mae'n ymguddio, dewch yn �l ataf pan fyddwch yn sicr, a dof finnau gyda chwi. Cyhyd �'i fod yn y wlad, fe chwiliaf amdano ym mhob man, ie, trwy holl lwythau Jwda."

²³And see and know of all the hiding-places where he hideth himself, and ye have turned back unto me prepared, and I have gone with you, and it hath been, if he is in the land, that I have searched him out through all the thousands of Judah.`

²⁴ Aethant yn �l i Siff cyn i Saul gyrraedd, ac yr oedd Dafydd a'i wu375?r yn niffeithwch Maon, yn yr Araba i'r de o Jesimon.

²⁴And they rise and go to Ziph before Saul, and David and his men [are] in the wilderness of Maon, in the plain, at the south of the desolate place.

²⁵ Yna daeth Saul a'i wu375?r i geisio Dafydd, ond dywedwyd wrth Ddafydd, ac aeth yntau i lawr i'r creigiau ac arhosodd yn niffeithwch Maon.

²⁵And Saul and his men go to seek, and they declare to David, and he goeth down the rock, and abideth in the wilderness of Maon; and Saul heareth, and pursueth after David [to] the wilderness of Maon.

²⁶ Clywodd Saul, ac aeth i erlid Dafydd i ddiffeithwch Maon; ac yr oedd ef yn mynd ar hyd un ochr i'r mynydd, a Dafydd a'i wu375?r ar hyd yr ochr arall. Fel yr oedd Dafydd yn brysio i osgoi Saul, a Saul a'i wu375?r yn cau am Ddafydd a'i wu375?r i'w dal,

²⁶And Saul goeth on this side of the mountain, and David and his men on that side of the mountain, and David is hastened to go from the face of Saul, and Saul and his men are compassing David and his men, to catch them.

²⁷ cyrhaeddodd negesydd a dweud wrth Saul, "Tyrd ar unwaith, oherwydd y mae'r Philistiaid wedi ymosod ar y wlad."

²⁷And a messenger hath come in unto Saul, saying, `Haste, and come, for the Philistines have pushed against the land.`

²⁸ Felly peidiodd Saul ag ymlid Dafydd, ac aeth i wrthwynebu'r Philistiaid.

²⁸And Saul turneth back from pursuing after David, and goeth to meet the Philistines, therefore they have called that place `The Rock of Divisions.`

²⁹ Dyna pam yr enwyd y lle hwnnw Sela Hammalecoth. Aeth Dafydd i fyny oddi yno a byw yn llochesau En-gedi.

²⁹And David goeth up thence, and abideth in fortresses [at] En-gedi.
