¹ Aethant ar hyd y ffordd trwy Amffipolis ac Apolonia, a chyrraedd Thesalonica, lle yr oedd synagog gan yr Iddewon.

¹And having passed through Amphipolis, and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where was the synagogue of the Jews,

² Ac yn �l ei arfer aeth Paul i mewn atynt, ac am dri Saboth bu'n ymresymu � hwy ar sail yr Ysgrythurau,

²and according to the custom of Paul, he went in unto them, and for three sabbaths he was reasoning with them from the Writings,

³ gan esbonio a phrofi fod yn rhaid i'r Meseia ddioddef a chyfodi oddi wrth y meirw. Byddai'n dweud, "Hwn yw'r Meseia � Iesu, yr hwn yr wyf fi'n ei gyhoeddi i chwi."

³opening and alleging, `That the Christ it behoved to suffer, and to rise again out of the dead, and that this is the Christ — Jesus whom I proclaim to you.`

⁴ Cafodd rhai ohonynt eu hargyhoeddi, ac ymuno � Paul a Silas; ac felly hefyd y gwnaeth lliaws mawr o'r Groegiaid oedd yn addoli Duw, ac nid ychydig o'r gwragedd blaenaf.

⁴And certain of them did believe, and attached themselves to Paul and to Silas, also of the worshipping Greeks a great multitude, of the principal women also not a few.

⁵ Ond cenfigennodd yr Iddewon, ac wedi cael gafael ar rai dihirod o blith segurwyr y sgw�r, a'u casglu'n dorf, dechreusant greu terfysg yn y ddinas. Ymosodasant ar du375? Jason, a cheisio dod � Paul a Silas allan gerbron y dinasyddion.

⁵And the unbelieving Jews, having been moved with envy, and having taken to them of the loungers certain evil men, and having made a crowd, were setting the city in an uproar; having assailed also the house of Jason, they were seeking them to bring [them] to the populace,

⁶ Ond wedi methu dod o hyd iddynt hwy, llusgasant Jason a rhai credinwyr o flaen llywodraethwyr y ddinas, gan weiddi, "Y mae aflonyddwyr yr Ymerodraeth wedi dod yma hefyd,

⁶and not having found them, they drew Jason and certain brethren unto the city rulers, calling aloud — `These, having put the world in commotion, are also here present,

⁷ ac y mae Jason wedi rhoi croeso iddynt; y mae'r bobl hyn i gyd yn troseddu yn erbyn ordeiniadau Cesar trwy ddweud fod brenin arall, sef Iesu."

⁷whom Jason hath received; and these all do contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying another to be king — Jesus.`

⁸ Cyffrowyd y dyrfa a'r llywodraethwyr pan glywsant hyn,

⁸And they troubled the multitude and the city rulers, hearing these things,

⁹ ond ar �l derbyn gwarant gan Jason a'r lleill, gollyngasant hwy'n rhydd.

⁹and having taking security from Jason and the rest, they let them go.

¹⁰ Cyn gynted ag iddi nosi, anfonodd y credinwyr Paul a Silas i Berea, ac wedi iddynt gyrraedd aethant i synagog yr Iddewon.

¹⁰And the brethren immediately, through the night, sent forth both Paul and Silas to Berea, who having come, went to the synagogue of the Jews;

¹¹ Yr oedd y rhain yn fwy eangfrydig na'r rhai yn Thesalonica, gan iddynt dderbyn y gair � phob eiddgarwch, gan chwilio'r Ysgrythurau beunydd i weld a oedd pethau fel yr oeddent hwy yn dweud.

¹¹and these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, they received the word with all readiness of mind, every day examining the Writings whether those things were so;

¹² Gan hynny, credodd llawer ohonynt, ac nid ychydig o'r Groegiaid, yn wragedd bonheddig ac yn wu375?r.

¹²many, indeed, therefore, of them did believe, and of the honourable Greek women and men not a few.

¹³ Ond pan ddaeth Iddewon Thesalonica i wybod fod gair Duw wedi ei gyhoeddi gan Paul yn Berea hefyd, daethant i godi terfysg a chythryblu'r tyrfaoedd yno hefyd.

¹³And when the Jews from Thessalonica knew that also in Berea was the word of God declared by Paul, they came thither also, agitating the multitudes;

¹⁴ Yna anfonodd y credinwyr Paul ymaith yn ddi-oed i fynd hyd at y m�r, ond arhosodd Silas a Timotheus yno.

¹⁴and then immediately the brethren sent forth Paul, to go on as it were to the sea, but both Silas and Timothy were remaining there.

¹⁵ Daeth hebryngwyr Paul ag ef i Athen, ac aethant oddi yno gyda gorchymyn i Silas a Timotheus ddod ato cyn gynted ag y gallent.

¹⁵And those conducting Paul, brought him unto Athens, and having received a command unto Silas and Timotheus that with all speed they may come unto him, they departed;

¹⁶ Tra bu Paul yn eu disgwyl yn Athen, cythruddid ei ysbryd ynddo wrth weld y ddinas yn llawn eilunod.

¹⁶and Paul waiting for them in Athens, his spirit was stirred in him, beholding the city wholly given to idolatry,

¹⁷ Gan hynny, ymresymodd yn y synagog �'r Iddewon ac �'r rhai oedd yn addoli Duw, ac yn y sgw�r bob dydd � phwy bynnag a fyddai yno.

¹⁷therefore, indeed, he was reasoning in the synagogue with the Jews, and with the worshipping persons, and in the market-place every day with those who met with him.

¹⁸ Yr oedd rhai o'r athronwyr, yn Epicwriaid a Stoiciaid, yn dadlau ag ef hefyd, a rhai'n dweud, "Beth yn y byd y mae'r clebryn yma yn mynnu ei ddweud?" Meddai eraill, "Y mae'n ymddangos ei fod yn cyhoeddi duwiau dieithr." Oherwydd cyhoeddi'r newydd da am Iesu a'r atgyfodiad yr oedd.

¹⁸And certain of the Epicurean and of the Stoic philosophers, were meeting together to see him, and some were saying, `What would this seed picker wish to say?` and others, `Of strange demons he doth seem to be an announcer;` because Jesus and the rising again he did proclaim to them as good news,

¹⁹ Cymerasant afael ynddo, a mynd ag ef at yr Areopagus, gan ddweud, "A gawn ni wybod beth yw'r ddysgeidiaeth newydd yma a draethir gennyt ti?

¹⁹having also taken him, unto the Areopagus they brought [him], saying, `Are we able to know what [is] this new teaching that is spoken by thee,

²⁰ Oherwydd yr wyt yn dwyn i'n clyw ni ryw syniadau dieithr. Yr ydym yn dymuno cael gwybod, felly, beth yw ystyr y pethau hyn."

²⁰for certain strange things thou dost bring to our ears? we wish, then, to know what these things would wish to be;`

²¹ Nid oedd gan neb o'r Atheniaid, na'r dieithriaid oedd ar ymweliad �'r lle, amser i ddim arall ond i adrodd neu glywed y peth diweddaraf.

²¹and all Athenians, and the strangers sojourning, for nothing else were at leisure but to say something, and to hear some newer thing.

²² Safodd Paul yng nghanol yr Areopagus, ac meddai: "Bobl Athen, yr wyf yn gweld ar bob llaw eich bod yn dra chrefyddgar.

²²And Paul, having stood in the midst of the Areopagus, said, `Men, Athenians, in all things I perceive you as over-religious;

²³ Oherwydd wrth fynd o gwmpas ac edrych ar eich pethau cysegredig, cefais yn eu plith allor ac arni'n ysgrifenedig, 'I Dduw nid adwaenir'. Yr hyn, ynteu, yr ydych chwi'n ei addoli heb ei adnabod, dyna'r hyn yr wyf fi'n ei gyhoeddi i chwi.

²³for passing through and contemplating your objects of worship, I found also an erection on which had been inscribed: To God — unknown; whom, therefore — not knowing — ye do worship, this One I announce to you.

²⁴ Y Duw a wnaeth y byd a phopeth sydd ynddo, nid yw ef, ac yntau'n Arglwydd nef a daear, yn preswylio mewn temlau o waith llaw.

²⁴`God, who did make the world, and all things in it, this One, of heaven and of earth being Lord, in temples made with hands doth not dwell,

²⁵ Ni wasanaethir ef chwaith � dwylo dynol, fel pe bai arno angen rhywbeth, gan mai ef ei hun sy'n rhoi i bawb fywyd ac anadl a'r cwbl oll.

²⁵neither by the hands of men is He served — needing anything, He giving to all life, and breath, and all things;

²⁶ Gwnaeth ef hefyd o un dyn yr holl genhedloedd, i breswylio ar holl wyneb y ddaear, gan osod cyfnodau penodedig a therfynau eu preswylfod.

²⁶He made also of one blood every nation of men, to dwell upon all the face of the earth — having ordained times before appointed, and the bounds of their dwellings —

²⁷ Yr oeddent i geisio Duw, yn y gobaith y gallent rywfodd ymbalfalu amdano a'i ddarganfod; ac eto nid yw ef nepell oddi wrth yr un ohonom.

²⁷to seek the Lord, if perhaps they did feel after Him and find, — though, indeed, He is not far from each one of us,

²⁸ 'Oherwydd ynddo ef yr ydym yn byw ac yn symud ac yn bod', fel, yn wir, y dywedodd rhai o'ch beirdd chwi: 'Canys ei hiliogaeth ef hefyd ydym ni.'

²⁸for in Him we live, and move, and are; as also certain of your poets have said: For of Him also we are offspring.

²⁹ Os ydym ni, felly, yn hiliogaeth Duw, ni ddylem dybio fod y Duwdod yn debyg i aur neu arian neu faen, gwaith nadd celfyddyd a dychymyg dyn.

²⁹`Being, therefore, offspring of God, we ought not to think the Godhead to be like to gold, or silver, or stone, graving of art and device of man;

³⁰ Edrychodd Duw heibio, yn wir, i amserau anwybodaeth; ond yn awr y mae'n gorchymyn i bawb ym mhob man edifarhau,

³⁰the times, indeed, therefore, of the ignorance God having overlooked, doth now command all men everywhere to reform,

³¹ oblegid gosododd ddiwrnod pryd y bydd yn barnu'r byd mewn cyfiawnder, trwy u373?r a benododd, ac fe roes sicrwydd o hyn i bawb trwy ei atgyfodi ef oddi wrth y meirw."

³¹because He did set a day in which He is about to judge the world in righteousness, by a man whom He did ordain, having given assurance to all, having raised him out of the dead.`

³² Pan glywsant am atgyfodiad y meirw, dechreuodd rhai wawdio, ond dywedodd eraill, "Cawn dy wrando ar y pwnc hwn rywdro eto."

³²And having heard of a rising again of the dead, some, indeed, were mocking, but others said, `We will hear thee again concerning this;`

³³ Felly aeth Paul allan o'u mysg.

³³and so Paul went forth from the midst of them,

³⁴ Ond ymlynodd rhai pobl wrtho, a chredu, ac yn eu plith Dionysius, aelod o lys yr Areopagus, a gwraig o'r enw Damaris, ac eraill gyda hwy.

³⁴and certain men having cleaved to him, did believe, among whom [is] also Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman, by name Damaris, and others with them.
