¹ o'r fath dywyllwch a ddygodd yr Arglwydd ar ferch Seion yn ei ddig! Bwriodd ogoniant Israel o'r nefoedd i'r llawr, ac ni chofiodd am ei droedfainc yn nydd ei ddicter.

¹How doth the Lord cloud in His anger the daughter of Zion, He hath cast from heaven [to] earth the beauty of Israel, And hath not remembered His footstool in the day of His anger.

² Difethodd yr Arglwydd yn ddiarbed holl drigfannau Jacob; yn ei ddigofaint dinistriodd amddiffynfeydd merch Jwda; taflodd i lawr a difwynodd y deyrnas a'i phenaethiaid.

²Swallowed up hath the Lord, He hath not pitied any of the pleasant places of Jacob, He hath broken down in His wrath The fortresses of the daughter of Judah, He hath caused to come to the earth, He polluted the kingdom and its princes.

³ Yn angerdd ei ddig torrodd gyrn Israel i gyd; tynnodd yn �l ei ddeheulaw wrth i'r gelyn ymosod; llosgodd yn Jacob fel fflam d�n yn difa popeth o'i hamgylch.

³He hath cut off in the heat of anger every horn of Israel, He hath turned backward His right hand From the face of the enemy, And He burneth against Jacob as a flaming fire, It hath devoured round about.

⁴ Fel gelyn parat�dd ei fwa, safodd �'i ddeheulaw'n barod, ac fel gwrthwynebwr fe laddodd y cyfan oedd yn ddymunol i'r llygad; tywalltodd ei lid fel t�n ar babell merch Seion.

⁴He hath trodden His bow as an enemy, Stood hath His right hand as an adversary, And He slayeth all the desirable ones of the eye, In the tent of the daughter of Zion, He hath poured out as fire His fury.

⁵ Y mae'r Arglwydd wedi troi'n elyn ac wedi difetha Israel; difethodd ei holl balasau, a dinistrio'i hamddiffynfeydd; gwnaeth i alar a gofid gynyddu i ferch Jwda.

⁵The Lord hath been as an enemy, He hath swallowed up Israel, He hath swallowed up all her palaces, He hath destroyed His fortresses, And He multiplieth in the daughter of Judah Mourning and moaning.

⁶ Chwalodd ei babell fel chwalu gardd, a dinistrio'r man cyfarfod; gwnaeth yr ARGLWYDD i Seion anghofio ei gu373?yl a'i Saboth; yn angerdd ei lid dirmygodd frenin ac offeiriad.

⁶And He shaketh as a garden His tabernacle, He hath destroyed His appointed place, Jehovah hath forgotten in Zion the appointed time and sabbath, And despiseth, in the indignation of His anger, king and priest.

⁷ Gwrthododd yr Arglwydd ei allor, a ffieiddio'i gysegr; rhoddodd furiau ei phalasau yn llaw'r gelyn; gwaeddasant hwythau yn nhu375?'r ARGLWYDD fel ar ddydd gu373?yl.

⁷The Lord hath cast off His altar, He hath rejected His sanctuary, He hath shut up into the hand of the enemy The walls of her palaces, A noise they have made in the house of Jehovah Like a day of appointment.

⁸ Yr oedd yr ARGLWYDD yn benderfynol o ddinistrio mur merch Seion; gosododd linyn mesur arni, ac ni thynnodd yn �l ei law rhag difetha. Gwnaeth i wrthglawdd a mur alaru; aethant i gyd yn wan.

⁸Devised hath Jehovah to destroy the wall of the daughter of Zion, He hath stretched out a line, He hath not turned His hand from destroying, And He causeth bulwark and wall to mourn, Together — they have been weak.

⁹ Suddodd ei phyrth i'r ddaear; torrodd a maluriodd ef ei barrau. Y mae ei brenin a'i phenaethiaid ymysg y cenhedloedd, ac nid oes cyfraith mwyach; ni chaiff ei phroffwydi weledigaeth gan yr ARGLWYDD.

⁹Sunk into the earth have her gates, He hath destroyed and broken her bars, Her king and her princes [are] among the nations, There is no law, also her prophets Have not found vision from Jehovah.

¹⁰ Y mae henuriaid merch Seion yn eistedd yn fud ar y ddaear, wedi taflu llwch ar eu pennau a gwisgo sachliain; y mae merched ifainc Jerwsalem wedi crymu eu pennau i'r llawr.

¹⁰Sit on the earth — keep silent do the elders of the daughter of Zion, They have caused dust to go up on their head, They have girded on sackcloth, Put down to the earth their head have the virgins of Jerusalem.

¹¹ Dallwyd fy llygaid gan ddagrau; y mae f'ymysgaroedd mewn poen. Yr wyf yn tywallt fy nghalon allan o achos dinistr merch fy mhobl, ac am fod plant a babanod yn llewygu yn strydoedd y ddinas.

¹¹Consumed by tears have been my eyes, Troubled have been my bowels, Poured out to the earth hath been my liver, For the breach of the daughter of my people; In infant and suckling being feeble, In the broad places of the city,

¹² Yr oeddent yn gweiddi ar eu mamau, "Ple cawn ni rawn a gwin?" � wrth iddynt lewygu fel rhai clwyfedig yn strydoedd y ddinas, ac wrth iddynt ymladd am eu bywyd ym mynwes eu mamau.

¹²To their mothers they say, `Where [are] corn and wine?` In their becoming feeble as a pierced one In the broad places of the city, In their soul pouring itself out into the bosom of their mothers.

¹³ Beth allaf ei ddweud o'th blaid, a beth a ddychmygaf amdanat, ferch Jerwsalem? I bwy y gallaf dy gyffelybu er mwyn dy gysur, y forwyn, ferch Seion? Y mae dy ddolur mor ddwfn �'r m�r, pwy a all dy iach�u?

¹³What do I testify [to] thee, what do I liken to thee, O daughter of Jerusalem? What do I equal to thee, and I comfort thee, O virgin daughter of Zion? For great as a sea [is] thy breach, Who doth give healing to thee?

¹⁴ Yr oedd gweledigaethau dy broffwydi yn gelwyddog a thwyllodrus; ni fu iddynt ddatgelu dy gamwedd er mwyn adfer dy lwyddiant; yr oedd yr oraclau a roddasant iti yn gelwyddog a chamarweiniol.

¹⁴Thy prophets have seen for thee a false and insipid thing, And have not revealed concerning thine iniquity, To turn back thy captivity, And they see for thee false burdens and causes of expulsion.

¹⁵ Y mae pob un sy'n mynd heibio yn curo'i ddwylo o'th achos; y maent yn chwibanu ac yn ysgwyd eu pennau ar ferch Jerwsalem: "Ai hon yw'r ddinas a gyfrifid yn goron prydferthwch, ac yn llawenydd yr holl ddaear?"

¹⁵Clapped hands at thee have all passing by the way, They have hissed — and they shake the head At the daughter of Jerusalem: `Is this the city of which they said: The perfection of beauty, a joy to all the land?`

¹⁶ Y mae dy holl elynion yn gweiddi'n groch yn dy erbyn, yn chwibanu ac yn ysgyrnygu dannedd; dywedant, "Yr ydym wedi ei difetha; dyma'r dydd yr oeddem yn disgwyl amdano; yr ydym wedi cael ei weld!"

¹⁶Opened against thee their mouth have all thine enemies, They have hissed, yea, they gnash the teeth, They have said: `We have swallowed [her] up, Surely this [is] the day that we looked for, We have found — we have seen.`

¹⁷ Gwnaeth yr ARGLWYDD yr hyn a gynlluniodd; cyflawnodd ei fwriad, a drefnodd ers amser maith, a dinistriodd yn ddiarbed; gwnaeth i'r gelyn lawenhau o'th achos, a dyrchafu corn dy wrthwynebwyr.

¹⁷Jehovah hath done that which He devised, He hath fulfilled His saying That He commanded from the days of old, He hath broken down and hath not pitied, And causeth an enemy to rejoice over thee, He lifted up the horn of thine adversaries.

¹⁸ Gwaedda ar yr Arglwydd, O fur merch Seion; tywallt ddagrau'n genllif ddydd a nos; paid ag ymatal na rhoi gorffwys i'th lygaid.

¹⁸Cried hath their heart unto the Lord; O wall of the daughter of Zion, Cause to go down as a stream tears daily and nightly, Give not rest to thyself, Let not the daughter of thine eye stand still.

¹⁹ Cod, a gwaedda liw nos, ar gychwyn pob gwyliadwriaeth; tywallt dy galon fel du373?r o flaen yr Arglwydd; estyn dy ddwylo tuag ato am fywyd dy blant, sy'n llewygu gan newyn ym mhen pob stryd.

¹⁹Arise, cry aloud in the night, At the beginning of the watches. Pour out as water thy heart, Over against the face of the Lord, Lift up unto Him thy hands, for the soul of thine infants, Who are feeble with hunger at the head of all out-places.

²⁰ Edrych, ARGLWYDD, a gw�l. I bwy y gwnaethost hyn? A yw'r gwragedd i fwyta'u hepil, y plant y maent yn eu hanwesu? A leddir offeiriad a phroffwyd yng nghysegr yr Arglwydd?

²⁰See, O Jehovah, and look attentively, To whom Thou hast acted thus, Do women eat their fruit, infants of a handbreadth? Slain in the sanctuary of the Lord are priest and prophet?

²¹ Gorwedd yr ifanc a'r hen yn y llwch ar y strydoedd; y mae fy merched a'm dynion ifainc wedi syrthio trwy'r cleddyf; lleddaist hwy yn nydd dy ddicter, a'u difa'n ddiarbed.

²¹Lain on the earth [in] out-places have young and old, My virgins and my young men have fallen by the sword, Thou hast slain in a day of Thine anger, Thou hast slaughtered — Thou hast not pitied.

²² Gelwaist ar fy ymosodwyr o bob cyfeiriad, fel ar ddydd gu373?yl; nid oedd un yn dianc nac yn cael ei arbed yn nydd dicter yr ARGLWYDD; lladdodd fy ngelyn bob un a anwesais ac a fegais.

²²Thou dost call as [at] a day of appointment, My fears from round about, And there hath not been in the day of the anger of Jehovah, An escaped and remaining one, They whom I stretched out and nourished, My enemy hath consumed!
