¹ Ymhen amser, ar adeg y cynhaeaf gwenith, ymwelodd Samson �'i wraig gyda myn gafr, a dweud, "Yr wyf am gael mynd at fy ngwraig i'r siambr." Ond ni chaniataodd ei thad iddo fynd,

¹And it cometh to pass, after [some] days, in the days of wheat-harvest, that Samson looketh after his wife, with a kid of the goats, and saith, `I go in unto my wife, to the inner chamber;` and her father hath not permitted him to go in,

² a dywedodd wrtho, "Yr oeddwn yn meddwl yn sicr ei bod hi'n llwyr atgas gennyt; felly rhoddais hi i'th was priodas. Y mae ei chwaer iau yn dlysach na hi; cymer hi yn ei lle."

²and her father saith, I certainly said, that thou didst certainly hate her, and I give her to thy companion; is not her sister — the young one — better than she? Let her be, I pray thee, to thee, instead of her.`

³ Ond dywedodd Samson wrthynt, "Y tro hwn fe dalaf y pwyth i'r Philistiaid; fe achosaf niwed difrifol iddynt."

³And Samson saith of them, `I am more innocent this time than the Philistines, though I am doing with them evil.`

⁴ Aeth Samson a dal tri chant o lwynogod; ac wedi iddo gael ffaglau, fe'u clymodd hwy gynffon wrth gynffon, a gosod ffagl yn y canol rhwng y ddwy gynffon.

⁴And Samson goeth and catcheth three hundred foxes, and taketh torches, and turneth tail unto tail, and putteth a torch between the two tails, in the midst,

⁵ Yna wedi iddo gynnau'r ffaglau, gyrrodd hwy drwy gnydau'r Philistiaid, a llosgi'r styciau a'r u375?d oedd heb ei dorri a'r gerddi olewydd.

⁵and kindleth fire in the torches, and sendeth [them] out into the standing corn of the Philistines, and burneth [it] from heap even unto standing corn, even unto vineyard — olive-yard.

⁶ Pan ofynnodd y Philistiaid pwy oedd wedi gwneud hyn, dywedwyd, "Samson, mab-yng-nghyfraith y dyn o Timna, am fod hwnnw wedi cymryd ei wraig ef a'i rhoi i'w was priodas."

⁶And the Philistines say, `Who hath done this?` And they say, `Samson, son-in-law of the Timnite, because he hath taken away his wife, and giveth her to his companion;` and the Philistines go up, and burn her and her father with fire.

⁷ Aeth y Philistiaid a'i llosgi hi a'i thad; a dywedodd Samson, "Os ydych chwi'n ymddwyn fel hyn, nid ymataliaf finnau nes dial arnoch."

⁷And Samson saith to them, `Though ye do thus, nevertheless I am avenged on you, and afterwards I cease!`

⁸ Trawodd hwy'n bendramwnwgl � difrod mawr, cyn mynd ymaith ac aros mewn hafn yng nghraig Etam.

⁸And he smiteth them hip and thigh — a great smiting, and goeth down and dwelleth in the cleft of the rock Etam.

⁹ Daeth y Philistiaid i fyny a gwersyllu yn Jwda, ac ymledu trwy Lehi.

⁹And the Philistines go up, and encamp in Judah, and are spread out in Lehi,

¹⁰ Gofynnodd gwu375?r Jwda, "Pam y daethoch yn ein herbyn?" Ac meddent, "Daethom i ddal Samson, a gwneud iddo ef fel y gwnaeth ef i ni."

¹⁰and the men of Judah say, `Why have ye come up against us?` and they say, `To bind Samson we have come up, to do to him as he hath done to us.`

¹¹ Yna aeth tair mil o wu375?r o Jwda i hafn craig Etam a dweud wrth Samson, "Fe wyddost yn iawn mai'r Philistiaid sy'n ein llywodraethu; beth yw hyn a wnaethost inni?" Atebodd yntau, "Gwneuthum iddynt hwy fel y gwnaethant hwy i mi."

¹¹And three thousand men of Judah go down unto the cleft of the rock Etam, and say to Samson, `Hast thou now known that the Philistines are rulers over us? and what [is] this thou hast done to us?` And he saith to them, `As they did to me, so I did to them.`

¹² Yna dywedasant, "Yr ydym ni wedi dod yma i'th rwymo a'th roi yn llaw'r Philistiaid." Dywedodd Samson wrthynt, "Ewch ar eich llw na wnewch chwi niwed imi."

¹²And they say to him, `To bind thee we have come down — to give thee into the hand of the Philistines.` And Samson saith to them, `Swear to me, lest ye fall upon me yourselves.`

¹³ Dywedodd y gwu375?r, "Na, dim ond dy rwymo a wnawn, a'th drosglwyddo iddynt hwy; yn sicr, nid ydym am dy ladd." Yna rhwymasant ef � dwy raff newydd, a mynd ag ef o'r graig.

¹³And they speak to him, saying, No, but we certainly bind thee, and have given thee into their hand, and we certainly do not put thee to death;` and they bind him with two thick bands, new ones, and bring him up from the rock.

¹⁴ Pan gyrhaeddodd Lehi, a'r Philistiaid yn bloeddio wrth ei gyfarfod, dis-gynnodd ysbryd yr ARGLWYDD arno, aeth y rhaffau oedd am ei freichiau fel llinyn wedi ei ddeifio gan d�n, a syrthiodd ei rwymau oddi am ei ddwylo.

¹⁴He hath come unto Lehi — and the Philistines have shouted at meeting him — and the Spirit of Jehovah prospereth over him, and the thick bands which [are] on his arms are as flax which they burn with fire, and his bands are wasted from off his hands,

¹⁵ Cafodd �n asyn, a honno heb sychu; gafaelodd ynddi �'i law, a lladd mil o ddynion.

¹⁵and he findeth a fresh jaw-bone of an ass, and putteth forth his hand and taketh it, and smiteth with it — a thousand men.

¹⁶ Ac meddai Samson: "� g�n asyn rhois iddynt gurfa asyn; � g�n asyn lleddais fil o ddynion."

¹⁶And Samson saith, `With a jaw-bone of the ass — an ass upon asses — with a jaw-bone of the ass I have smitten a thousand men.`

¹⁷ Wedi iddo orffen dweud hyn, taflodd yr �n o'i law, a galwyd y lle hwnnw Ramath-lehi.

¹⁷And it cometh to pass when he finisheth speaking, that he casteth away the jaw-bone out of his hand, and calleth that place Ramath-Lehi;

¹⁸ Yr oedd syched mawr arno, a galwodd ar yr ARGLWYDD a dweud, "Ti a roddodd y fuddugoliaeth fawr hon i'th was, ond a wyf yn awr i drengi o syched, a syrthio i afael y rhai dienwaededig?"

¹⁸and he thirsteth exceedingly, and calleth unto Jehovah, and saith, `Thou — Thou hast given by the hand of Thy servant this great salvation; and now, I die with thirst, and have fallen into the hand of the uncircumcised.`

¹⁹ Holltodd Duw y ceubwll sydd yn Lehi, a ffrydiodd du373?r ohono; wedi iddo yfed, adferwyd ei ysbryd ac adfywiodd. Am hynny enwodd y ffynnon En-haccore; y mae yn Lehi hyd heddiw.

¹⁹And God cleaveth the hollow place which [is] in Lehi, and waters come out of it, and he drinketh, and his spirit cometh back, and he reviveth; therefore hath [one] called its name `The fountain of him who is calling,` which [is] in Lehi unto this day.

²⁰ Bu Samson yn farnwr ar Israel am ugain mlynedd yng nghyfnod y Philistiaid.

²⁰And he judgeth Israel in the days of the Philistines twenty years.
