¹ Yr oedd yr holl gasglwyr trethi a'r pechaduriaid yn nes�u ato i wrando arno.

¹And all the tax-gatherers and the sinners were coming nigh to him, to hear him,

² Ond yr oedd y Phariseaid a'r ysgrifenyddion yn grwgnach ymhlith ei gilydd, gan ddweud, "Y mae hwn yn croesawu pechaduriaid ac yn cydfwyta gyda hwy."

²and the Pharisees and the scribes were murmuring, saying — This one doth receive sinners, and doth eat with them.`

³ A dywedodd ef y ddameg hon wrthynt:

³And he spake unto them this simile, saying,

⁴ "Bwriwch fod gan un ohonoch chwi gant o ddefaid, a digwydd iddo golli un ohonynt; onid yw'n gadael y naw deg a naw yn yr anialdir ac yn mynd ar �l y ddafad golledig nes dod o hyd iddi?

⁴`What man of you having a hundred sheep, and having lost one out of them, doth not leave behind the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go on after the lost one, till he may find it?

⁵ Wedi dod o hyd iddi y mae'n ei gosod ar ei ysgwyddau yn llawen,

⁵and having found, he doth lay [it] on his shoulders rejoicing,

⁶ yn mynd adref, ac yn gwahodd ei gyfeillion a'i gymdogion ynghyd, gan ddweud wrthynt, 'Llawenhewch gyda mi, oherwydd yr wyf wedi cael hyd i'm dafad golledig.'

⁶and having come to the house, he doth call together the friends and the neighbours, saying to them, Rejoice with me, because I found my sheep — the lost one.

⁷ Rwy'n dweud wrthych, yr un modd bydd mwy o lawenydd yn y nef am un pechadur sy'n edifarhau nag am naw deg a naw o rai cyfiawn nad oes arnynt angen edifeirwch.

⁷`I say to you, that so joy shall be in the heaven over one sinner reforming, rather than over ninety-nine righteous men, who have no need of reformation.

⁸ "Neu bwriwch fod gan wraig ddeg darn arian, a digwydd iddi golli un darn; onid yw hi'n cynnau cannwyll ac yn ysgubo'r tu375? ac yn chwilio'n ddyfal nes dod o hyd iddo?

⁸`Or what woman having ten drachms, if she may lose one drachm, doth not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and seek carefully till that she may find?

⁹ Ac wedi dod o hyd iddo, y mae'n gwahodd ei chyfeillesau a'i chymdogion ynghyd, gan ddweud, 'Llawenhewch gyda mi, oherwydd yr wyf wedi cael hyd i'r darn arian a gollais.'

⁹and having found, she doth call together the female friends and the neighbours, saying, Rejoice with me, for I found the drachm that I lost.

¹⁰ Yr un modd, rwy'n dweud wrthych, y mae llawenydd ymhlith angylion Duw am un pechadur sy'n edifarhau."

¹⁰`So I say to you, joy doth come before the messengers of God over one sinner reforming.`

¹¹ Ac meddai, "Yr oedd dyn a chanddo ddau fab.

¹¹And he said, `A certain man had two sons,

¹² Dywedodd yr ieuengaf ohonynt wrth ei dad, 'Fy nhad, dyro imi'r gyfran o'th ystad sydd i ddod imi.' A rhannodd yntau ei eiddo rhyngddynt.

¹²and the younger of them said to the father, Father, give me the portion of the substance falling to [me], and he divided to them the living.

¹³ Ychydig ddyddiau yn ddiweddarach, wedi newid y cwbl am arian, ymfudodd y mab ieuengaf i wlad bell, ac yno gwastraffodd ei eiddo ar fyw'n afradlon.

¹³`And not many days after, having gathered all together, the younger son went abroad to a far country, and there he scattered his substance, living riotously;

¹⁴ Pan oedd wedi gwario'r cyfan, daeth newyn enbyd ar y wlad honno, a dechreuodd yntau fod mewn eisiau.

¹⁴and he having spent all, there came a mighty famine on that country, and himself began to be in want;

¹⁵ Aeth ac ymlynu wrth un o ddinasyddion y wlad, ac anfonodd hwnnw ef i'w gaeau i ofalu am y moch.

¹⁵and having gone on, he joined himself to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him to the fields to feed swine,

¹⁶ Buasai'n falch o wneud pryd o'r plisg yr oedd y moch yn eu bwyta; ond nid oedd neb yn cynnig dim iddo.

¹⁶and he was desirous to fill his belly from the husks that the swine were eating, and no one was giving to him.

¹⁷ Yna daeth ato'i hun a dweud, 'Faint o weision cyflog sydd gan fy nhad, a phob un ohonynt yn cael mwy na digon o fara, a minnau yma yn marw o newyn?

¹⁷`And having come to himself, he said, How many hirelings of my father have a superabundance of bread, and I here with hunger am perishing!

¹⁸ Fe godaf, ac fe af at fy nhad a dweud wrtho, "Fy nhad, pechais yn erbyn y nef ac yn dy erbyn di.

¹⁸having risen, I will go on unto my father, and will say to him, Father, I did sin — to the heaven, and before thee,

¹⁹ Nid wyf mwyach yn haeddu fy ngalw'n fab iti; cymer fi fel un o'th weision cyflog."'

¹⁹and no more am I worthy to be called thy son; make me as one of thy hirelings.

²⁰ Yna cododd a mynd at ei dad. A phan oedd eto ymhell i ffwrdd, gwelodd ei dad ef. Tosturiodd wrtho, rhedodd ato, a rhoes ei freichiau am ei wddf a'i gusanu.

²⁰`And having risen, he went unto his own father, and he being yet far distant, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and having ran he fell upon his neck and kissed him;

²¹ Ac meddai ei fab wrtho, 'Fy nhad, pechais yn erbyn y nef ac yn dy erbyn di. Nid wyf mwyach yn haeddu fy ngalw'n fab iti.'

²¹and the son said to him, Father, I did sin — to the heaven, and before thee, and no more am I worthy to be called thy son.

²² Ond meddai ei dad wrth ei weision, 'Brysiwch! Dewch � gwisg allan, yr orau, a'i gosod amdano. Rhowch fodrwy ar ei fys a sandalau am ei draed.

²²`And the father said unto his servants, Bring forth the first robe, and clothe him, and give a ring for his hand, and sandals for the feet;

²³ Dewch �'r llo sydd wedi ei besgi, a lladdwch ef. Gadewch inni wledda a llawenhau,

²³and having brought the fatted calf, kill [it], and having eaten, we may be merry,

²⁴ oherwydd yr oedd hwn, fy mab, wedi marw, a daeth yn fyw eto; yr oedd ar goll, a chafwyd hyd iddo.' Yna dechreusant wledda yn llawen.

²⁴because this my son was dead, and did live again, and he was lost, and was found; and they began to be merry.

²⁵ "Yr oedd ei fab hynaf yn y caeau. Pan nesaodd at y tu375? ar ei ffordd adref, clywodd su373?n cerddoriaeth a dawnsio.

²⁵`And his elder son was in a field, and as, coming, he drew nigh to the house, he heard music and dancing,

²⁶ Galwodd un o'r gweision ato a gofyn beth oedd ystyr hyn.

²⁶and having called near one of the young men, he was inquiring what these things might be,

²⁷ 'Dy frawd sydd wedi dychwelyd,' meddai ef wrtho, 'ac am iddo ei gael yn �l yn holliach, y mae dy dad wedi lladd y llo oedd wedi ei besgi.'

²⁷and he said to him — Thy brother is arrived, and thy father did kill the fatted calf, because in health he did receive him back.

²⁸ Digiodd ef, a gwrthod mynd i mewn. Daeth ei dad allan a'i gymell yn daer i'r tu375?,

²⁸`And he was angry, and would not go in, therefore his father, having come forth, was entreating him;

²⁹ ond atebodd ef, 'Yr holl flynyddoedd hyn b�m yn was bach iti, heb anufuddhau erioed i'th orchymyn. Ni roddaist erioed i mi gymaint � myn gafr, imi gael gwledda gyda'm cyfeillion.

²⁹and he answering said to the father, Lo, so many years I do serve thee, and never thy command did I transgress, and to me thou didst never give a kid, that with my friends I might make merry;

³⁰ Ond pan ddychwelodd hwn, dy fab sydd wedi difa dy eiddo gyda phuteiniaid, lleddaist iddo ef y llo oedd wedi ei besgi.'

³⁰but when thy son — this one who did devour thy living with harlots — came, thou didst kill to him the fatted calf.

³¹ 'Fy mhlentyn,' meddai'r tad wrtho, 'yr wyt ti bob amser gyda mi, ac y mae'r cwbl sydd gennyf yn eiddo i ti.

³¹`And he said to him, Child, thou art always with me, and all my things are thine;

³² Yr oedd yn rhaid gwledda a llawenhau, oherwydd yr oedd hwn, dy frawd, wedi marw, a daeth yn fyw; yr oedd ar goll, a chafwyd hyd iddo.'"

³²but to be merry, and to be glad, it was needful, because this thy brother was dead, and did live again, he was lost, and was found.`
