¹ Dyma air yr ARGLWYDD at Jeremeia ynghylch y sychder:

¹That which hath been the word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah concerning the matters of the dearths:

² "Y mae Jwda'n galaru, a'i phyrth yn llesg; y maent yn cwynfan ar lawr, a chri Jerwsalem yn esgyn fry.

²Mourned hath Judah, and her gates have languished, They have mourned to the earth, And the cry of Jerusalem hath gone up.

³ Y mae'r pendefigion yn anfon y gweision i gyrchu du373?r; d�nt at y ffosydd a'u cael yn sych, dychwelant a'u llestri'n wag; mewn cywilydd a dryswch fe guddiant eu hwynebau.

³And their honourable ones have sent their little ones to the water, They have come unto ditches, They have not found water, They have turned back — their vessels empty! They have been ashamed, And have blushed and covered their head.

⁴ Oherwydd craciodd y pridd am na ddaeth glaw i'r wlad; mewn cywilydd cuddiodd yr amaethwyr eu hwynebau.

⁴Because the ground hath been broken, For there hath been no rain in the land, Ashamed have been husbandmen, They have covered their head.

⁵ Y mae'r ewig yn bwrw llwdn yn y maes, ac yn ei adael am nad oes porfa;

⁵For even the hind in the field hath brought forth — to forsake [it!] For there hath been no grass.

⁶ y mae'r asynnod gwyllt yn sefyll ar y moelydd uchel, ac yn yfed gwynt fel bleiddiaid; pylodd eu llygaid am nad oes gwellt."

⁶And wild asses have stood on high places, They have swallowed up wind like dragons, Consumed have been their eyes, for there is no herb.

⁷ "Yn ddiau, er i'n drygioni dystio yn ein herbyn, O ARGLWYDD, gweithreda er mwyn dy enw. Y mae ein gwrthgilio'n aml, pechasom yn dy erbyn.

⁷Surely our iniquities have testified against us, O Jehovah, work for Thy name`s sake, For many have been our backslidings, Against Thee we have sinned.

⁸ Gobaith Israel, a'i geidwad yn awr ei adfyd, pam y byddi fel dieithryn yn y tir, fel ymdeithydd yn lledu pabell i aros noson?

⁸O Hope of Israel — its saviour in time of trouble, Why art Thou as a sojourner in the land? And as a traveller turned aside to lodge?

⁹ Pam y byddi fel un mewn syndod, fel un cryf yn methu achub? Ond eto yr wyt yn ein mysg ni, ARGLWYDD; dy enw di a roddwyd arnom; paid �'n gadael."

⁹Why art Thou as one dumb? As a mighty one not able to save? And Thou [art] in our midst, O Jehovah, And Thy name over us is called, leave us not.

¹⁰ Fel hyn y dywed yr ARGLWYDD wrth y bobl hyn: "Mor hoff ganddynt yw crwydro heb atal eu traed; am hynny, ni fyn yr ARGLWYDD mohonynt, fe gofia eu drygioni yn awr, a chosbi eu pechodau."

¹⁰Thus said Jehovah concerning this people: Well they have loved to wander, Their feet they have not restrained, And Jehovah hath not accepted them, Now doth He remember their iniquity, And inspect their sin.

¹¹ Dywedodd yr ARGLWYDD wrthyf, "Paid � gwedd�o dros les y bobl hyn.

¹¹And Jehovah saith unto me: Thou dost not pray for this people for good,

¹² Pan ymprydiant, ni wrandawaf ar eu cri; pan aberthant boethoffrwm a bwydoffrwm, ni fynnaf hwy; ond difethaf hwy �'r cleddyf a newyn a haint."

¹²When they fast, I hearken not unto their cry, And when they cause to ascend burnt-offering and present, I accept them not, For by sword, and by famine, And by pestilence, I am consuming them.

¹³ Dywedais innau, "O fy Arglwydd DDUW, wele'r proffwydi yn dweud wrthynt, 'Ni welwch gleddyf, ni ddaw newyn arnoch, ond fe rof i chwi wir heddwch yn y lle hwn.'"

¹³And I say, `Ah, Lord Jehovah, Lo, the prophets are saying to them: Ye do not see a sword, yea, famine is not to you, For true peace I give to you in this place.`

¹⁴ A dywedodd yr ARGLWYDD wrthyf, "Proffwydo celwyddau yn fy enw i y mae'r proffwydi; nid anfonais hwy, na gorchymyn iddynt, na llefaru wrthynt. Proffwydant i chwi weledigaethau gau, a dewiniaeth ff�l, a thwyll eu dychymyg eu hunain.

¹⁴And Jehovah saith unto me: Falsehood the prophets are prophesying in My name, I did not send them, nor command them, Nor have I spoken unto them: A false vision, and divination, and vanity, And the deceit of their own heart, they are prophesying to you.

¹⁵ Am hynny, fel hyn y dywed yr ARGLWYDD am y proffwydi sy'n proffwydo yn fy enw er nad anfonais hwy, sy'n dweud na bydd cleddyf na newyn yn y wlad hon: 'Trwy'r cleddyf a newyn y difethir y proffwydi hynny.

¹⁵Therefore, thus said Jehovah concerning the prophets who are prophesying in My name, and I have not sent them, and they are saying, Sword and famine is not in this land: By sword and by famine are these prophets consumed.

¹⁶ Oherwydd y newyn a'r cleddyf, teflir allan i heolydd Jerwsalem y bobl y proffwydir iddynt, heb neb i'w claddu hwy eu hunain na'u gwragedd na'u meibion na'u merched. Tywalltaf eu drygioni arnynt.'

¹⁶And the people to whom they are prophesying, Are cast into out-places of Jerusalem, Because of the famine, and of the sword, And they have none burying them, Them, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, And I have poured out upon them this evil.

¹⁷ "A dywedi wrthynt y gair hwn: 'Difered fy llygaid ddagrau, nos a dydd heb beidio. Daeth briw enbyd i'r wyryf, merch fy mhobl; ergyd drom iawn.

¹⁷And thou hast said unto them this word: Tears come down mine eyes night and day, And they do not cease, For, [with] a great breach, Broken hath been the virgin daughter of my people, A very grievous stroke.

¹⁸ Os af i'r maes, yno y mae'r cyrff a laddwyd �'r cleddyf. Os af i'r ddinas, yno y mae'r rhai a nychwyd gan y newyn. Y mae'r proffwyd hefyd a'r offeiriad yn crwydro'r wlad, a heb ddeall.'"

¹⁸If I have gone forth to the field, Then, lo, the pierced of the sword! And if I have entered the city, Then, lo, the diseased of famine! For both prophet and priest have gone up and down Unto a land that they knew not.

¹⁹ A wrthodaist ti Jwda yn llwyr? A ffieiddiaist ti Seion? Pam y trewaist ni heb fod inni iach�d? Disgwyl yr oeddem am heddwch, ond ni ddaeth daioni; am amser iach�d, ond dychryn a ddaeth.

¹⁹Hast Thou utterly rejected Judah? Zion hath Thy soul loathed? Wherefore hast Thou smitten us, And there is no healing to us? Looking for peace, and there is no good, And for a time of healing, and lo, terror.

²⁰ Cydnabyddwn, ARGLWYDD, ein drygioni, a chamwedd ein hynafiaid; yn wir, yr ydym wedi pechu yn dy erbyn.

²⁰We have known, O Jehovah, our wickedness, The iniquity of our fathers, For we have sinned against Thee.

²¹ Ond oherwydd dy enw, paid �'n ffieiddio ni, na dirmygu dy orsedd ogoneddus; cofia dy gyfamod � ni, paid �'i dorri.

²¹Do not despise, for Thy name`s sake, Dishonour not the throne of Thine honour, Remember, break not Thy covenant with us.

²² A oes neb ymhlith gau dduwiau'r cenhedloedd a rydd lawogydd? A rydd y nefoedd ei hun gawodydd? Na, ond ti, yr ARGLWYDD ein Duw, ynot ti yr hyderwn, ti yn unig a wnei'r pethau hyn oll.

²²Are there among the vanities of the nations any causing rain? And do the heavens give showers? Art not Thou He, O Jehovah our God? And we wait for thee, for Thou — Thou hast done all these!
