¹ Y diwrnod hwnnw, yn ystod y darlleniad o lyfr Moses i'r bobl, cafwyd ei bod yn ysgrifenedig nad oedd Ammoniaid na Moabiaid byth i ddod i mewn i gynulleidfa Duw,

¹On that day there was read in the book of Moses, in the ears of the people, and it hath been found written in it that an Ammonite and Moabite doth not come into the assembly of God — unto the age,

² am na ddaethant i gyfarfod �'r Israeliaid � bwyd a diod, eithr yn hytrach gyflogi Balaam yn eu herbyn, i'w melltithio; ond fe drodd ein Duw y felltith yn fendith.

²because they have not come before the sons of Israel with bread and with water, and hire against them Balaam to revile them, and our God turneth the reviling into a blessing.

³ A phan glywsant y gyfraith gwahanwyd oddi wrth Israel bawb o waed cymysg.

³And it cometh to pass, at their hearing the law, that they separate all the mixed people from Israel.

⁴ Ond cyn hyn yr oedd Eliasib yr offeiriad wedi ei wneud yn gyfrifol am ystafelloedd tu375? ein Duw.

⁴And before this Eliashib the priest, appointed over chambers of the house of our God, [is] a relation of Tobiah,

⁵ Yr oedd ef yn perthyn i Tobeia, ac wedi rhoi iddo ystafell fawr lle gynt y cedwid y bwydoffrwm a'r thus, y llestri a degwm yr u375?d, y gwin a'r olew oedd yn ddyledus i'r Lefiaid ac i'r cantorion a'r porthorion, a'r cyfraniad ar gyfer yr offeiriaid.

⁵and he maketh for him a great chamber, and there they were formerly putting the present, the frankincense, and the vessels, and the tithe of the corn, the new wine, and the oil — the commanded thing of the Levites, and the singers, and the gatekeepers — and the heave-offering of the priests.

⁶ Yr adeg honno nid oeddwn i yn Jerwsalem, oherwydd yn y ddeuddegfed flwyddyn ar hugain i Artaxerxes brenin Babilon yr oeddwn wedi mynd at y brenin. Ychydig yn ddiweddarach gofynnais ei ganiat�d i ddychwelyd.

⁶And during all this I was not in Jerusalem, for in the thirty and second year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon did I come unto the king, and at the end of days I have asked of the king,

⁷ Pan gyrhaeddais Jerwsalem gwelais y camwri a wnaeth Eliasib ynglu375?n � Tobeia trwy roi ystafell iddo yng nghynteddoedd tu375? Dduw.

⁷and I come in to Jerusalem, and understand concerning the evil that Eliashib hath done for Tobiah, to make to him a chamber in the courts of the house of God,

⁸ Cythruddodd hyn fi'n ddirfawr, a theflais ddodrefn Tobeia i gyd allan o'r ystafell;

⁸and it is very displeasing to me, and I cast all the vessels of the house of Tobiah without, out of the chamber,

⁹ a gorchmynnais iddynt buro'r ystafelloedd, a rhoddais lestri tu375? Dduw a'r bwydoffrwm a'r thus yn �l yno.

⁹and I speak, and they cleanse the chambers, and I bring back thither the vessels of the house of God with the present and the frankincense.

¹⁰ Darganf�m hefyd nad oedd y Lefiaid wedi derbyn eu cyfrannau, a'u bod hwy a'r cantorion oedd yn gyfrifol am y gwasanaethau wedi mynd i ffwrdd i'w ffermydd.

¹⁰And I know that the portions of the Levites have not been given, and they flee each to his field — the Levites and the singers, doing the work.

¹¹ Yna ceryddais y swyddogion a dweud, "Pam y cafodd tu375? Dduw ei esgeuluso?" Ac fe'u cesglais at ei gilydd, a'u gosod yn �l wrth eu gwaith.

¹¹And I strive with the prefects, and say, `Wherefore hath the house of God been forsaken?` and I gather them, and set them on their station;

¹² Yna daeth holl Jwda � degwm yr u375?d a'r gwin a'r olew i'r trysordai.

¹²and all Judah have brought in the tithe of the corn, and of the new wine, and of the oil, to the treasuries.

¹³ Ac etholais yn drysoryddion Selemeia yr offeiriad, Sadoc yr ysgrifennydd, a Pedaia y Lefiad, a Hanan fab Saccur, fab Metaneia i'w cynorthwyo, oherwydd fe'u cyfrifid yn rhai dibynadwy, a'u dyletswydd hwy oedd rhannu i'w brodyr.

¹³And I appoint treasurers over the treasuries, Shelemiah the priest, and Zadok the scribe, and Pedaiah of the Levites; and by their hand [is] Hanan son of Zaccur, son of Mattaniah, for stedfast they have been reckoned, and on them [it is] to give a portion to their brethren.

¹⁴ Cofia fi, fy Nuw, am hyn, a phaid � dileu'r daioni a wneuthum i du375? fy Nuw a'i wasanaethau.

¹⁴Be mindful of me, O my God, for this, and do not blot out my kind acts that I have done, for the house of my God, and for its charges.

¹⁵ Yn y dyddiau hynny gwelais ddynion yn Jwda yn sathru gwinwryf ar y Saboth, ac yn pentyrru grawn, ac yn llwytho asynnod � gwin, grawnwin, ffigys, a phob math o feichiau, ac yn eu cario i Jerwsalem ar y dydd Saboth. Rhybuddiais hwy am werthu bwyd ar y dydd hwn.

¹⁵In those days I have seen in Judah those treading wine-vats on sabbath, and bringing in the sheaves, and lading on the asses, and also, wine, grapes, and figs, and every burden, yea, they are bringing in to Jerusalem on the sabbath-day, and I testify in the day of their selling provision.

¹⁶ Daeth y Tyriaid oedd yn byw yn y ddinas � physgod a phob math o farsiand�aeth i'w gwerthu ar y Saboth i bobl Jwda yn Jerwsalem.

¹⁶And the Tyrians have dwelt in it, bringing in fish, and every ware, and selling on sabbath to the sons of Judah and in Jerusalem.

¹⁷ Felly ceryddais bendefigion Jwda a dweud wrthynt, "Beth yw'r drwg hwn yr ydych yn ei wneud, yn halogi'r dydd Saboth?

¹⁷And I strive with the freemen of Judah, and say to them, `What [is] this evil thing that ye are doing, and polluting the sabbath-day?

¹⁸ Onid dyma a wnaeth eich hynafiaid fel y daeth ein Duw �'r holl ddrwg hwn arnom ni ac ar y ddinas hon? Yr ydych yn dod � mwy eto o lid ar Israel trwy halogi'r Saboth."

¹⁸Thus did not your fathers do? and our God bringeth in on us all this evil, and on this city, and ye are adding fierceness on Israel, to pollute the sabbath.`

¹⁹ Yna, cyn dechrau'r Saboth, fel yr oedd yn nosi dros byrth Jerwsalem, gorchmynnais gau'r drysau, ac nad oedd neb i'w hagor cyn diwedd y Saboth. A gosodais rai o'm llanciau wrth y pyrth fel na ch�i dim ei gario i mewn ar y dydd Saboth.

¹⁹And it cometh to pass, when the gates of Jerusalem have been dark before the sabbath, that I speak, and the doors are shut, and I say, that they do not open them till after the sabbath; and of my servants I have stationed at the gates; there doth not come in a burden on the sabbath-day.

²⁰ Unwaith neu ddwy gwersyllodd y masnachwyr a gwerthwyr pob math o nwyddau y tu allan i Jerwsalem,

²⁰And they lodge — the merchants and sellers of all ware — at the outside of Jerusalem, once or twice,

²¹ ond rhybuddiais hwy a dweud, "Pam yr ydych yn gwersyllu yn ymyl y mur? Os gwnewch hyn eto fe'ch cosbaf chwi." o'r dydd hwnnw ymlaen ni ddaethant ar y Saboth.

²¹and I testify against them, and say unto them, `Wherefore are ye lodging over-against the wall? if ye repeat [it], a hand I put forth upon you;` from that time they have not come in on the sabbath.

²² A gorchmynnais i'r Lefiaid eu puro eu hunain a dod i wylio'r pyrth, er mwyn cadw'r dydd Saboth yn sanctaidd. Am hyn hefyd cofia fi, fy Nuw, ac arbed fi yn dy drugaredd fawr.

²²And I say to the Levites, that they be cleansed, and, coming in, keeping the gates, to sanctify the sabbath-day. Also, this, remember for me, O my God, and have pity on me, according to the abundance of Thy kindness.

²³ Yn y dyddiau hynny hefyd gwelais fod rhai Iddewon wedi priodi merched o Asdod, Ammon a Moab.

²³Also, in those days, I have seen the Jews [who] have settled women of Ashdod, of Ammon, of Moab.

²⁴ Yr oedd hanner eu plant yn siarad iaith Asdod, heb fedru siarad iaith yr Iddewon, a'r lleill yn siarad tafodiaith gymysg.

²⁴And of their sons, half are speaking Ashdoditish — and are not knowing to speak Jewish — and according to the language of people and people.

²⁵ Ceryddais hwy a'u melltithio, a tharo rhai ohonynt a thynnu eu gwallt; gwneuthum iddynt gymryd llw yn enw Duw i beidio � rhoi eu merched i feibion yr estron, na chymryd eu merched hwy i'w meibion nac iddynt eu hunain.

²⁵And I strive with them, and declare them vile, and smite certain of them, and pluck off their hair, and cause them to swear by God, `Ye do not give your daughters to their sons, nor do ye take of their daughters to your sons, and to yourselves.

²⁶ "Onid o achos merched fel hyn," meddwn, "y pechodd Solomon brenin Israel? Ni fu brenin tebyg iddo ymysg yr holl genhedloedd, yn un yr oedd Duw yn ei garu, ac wedi ei wneud ganddo yn frenin ar Israel gyfan; eto fe wnaeth merched estron iddo yntau bechu.

²⁶`By these did not Solomon king of Israel sin? and among the many nations there was no king like him, and beloved by his God he was, and God maketh him king over all Israel — even him did the strange women cause to sin.

²⁷ A ddylem ni felly wrando arnoch chwi i wneud y drwg mawr hwn, a throseddu yn erbyn ein Duw trwy briodi merched estron?"

²⁷And to you do we hearken to do all this great evil, to trespass against our God, to settle strange women?`

²⁸ Yr oedd un o feibion Joiada, mab Eliasib yr archoffeiriad, yn fab-yng-nghyfraith i Sanbalat yr Horoniad; am hynny gyrrais ef o'm gu373?ydd.

²⁸And [one] of the sons of Joiada son of Eliashib the high priest, [is] son-in-law to Sanballat the Horonite, and I cause him to flee from off me.

²⁹ Cofia hwy, O fy Nuw, am iddynt halogi'r offeiriadaeth a chyfamod yr offeiriaid a'r Lefiaid.

²⁹Be mindful of them, O my God, for the redeemed of the priesthood, and the covenant of the priesthood, and of the Levites.

³⁰ Yna glanheais hwy oddi wrth bopeth estron, a threfnais ddyletswyddau i'r offeiriaid a'r Lefiaid, pob un yn ei swydd.

³⁰And I have cleansed them from every stranger, and appoint charges to priests and to Levites, each in his work,

³¹ Gwneuthum ddarpariaeth hefyd ar gyfer coed yr offrwm ar wyliau penodedig, ac ar gyfer y blaenffrwyth. Cofia fi, fy Nuw, er daioni.

³¹and for the wood-offering at appointed times, and for first-fruits. Be mindful of me, O my God, for good.
