¹ Y mae'n rhaid i bob un ymostwng i'r awdurdodau sy'n ben. Oherwydd nid oes awdurdod heb i Dduw ei sefydlu, ac y mae'r awdurdodau sydd ohoni wedi eu sefydlu gan Dduw.

¹Let every soul to the higher authorities be subject, for there is no authority except from God, and the authorities existing are appointed by God,

² Am hynny, y mae'r sawl sy'n gwrthsefyll y fath awdurdod yn gwrthwynebu sefydliad sydd o Dduw. Ac y mae'r cyfryw yn sicr o dynnu barn arnynt eu hunain.

²so that he who is setting himself against the authority, against God`s ordinance hath resisted; and those resisting, to themselves shall receive judgment.

³ Y mae'r llywodraethwyr yn ddychryn, nid i'r sawl sy'n gwneud daioni ond i'r sawl sy'n gwneud drygioni. A wyt ti am fyw heb ofni'r awdurdod? Gwna ddaioni, a chei glod ganddo.

³For those ruling are not a terror to the good works, but to the evil; and dost thou wish not to be afraid of the authority? that which is good be doing, and thou shalt have praise from it,

⁴ Oherwydd gwas Duw ydyw, yn gweini arnat ti er dy les. Ond os drygioni a wnei, dylit ofni, oherwydd nid i ddim y mae'n gwisgo'r cleddyf. Gwas Duw ydyw, ie, dialydd i ddwyn digofaint dwyfol ar ddrwgweithredwyr.

⁴for of God it is a ministrant to thee for good; and if that which is evil thou mayest do, be fearing, for not in vain doth it bear the sword; for of God it is a ministrant, an avenger for wrath to him who is doing that which is evil.

⁵ Felly, y mae rheidrwydd arnom ymostwng, nid yn unig o achos y digofaint, ond hefyd o achos cydwybod.

⁵Wherefore it is necessary to be subject, not only because of the wrath, but also because of the conscience,

⁶ Dyma pam hefyd yr ydych yn talu trethi, oherwydd gwasanaethu Duw y mae'r awdurdodau wrth fod yn ddyfal yn y gwaith hwn.

⁶for because of this also pay ye tribute; for servants of God they are, on this very thing attending continually;

⁷ Talwch i bob un ohonynt beth bynnag sy'n ddyledus, boed dreth, boed doll, boed barch, boed anrhydedd.

⁷render, therefore, to all [their] dues; to whom tribute, the tribute; to whom custom, the custom; to whom fear, the fear; to whom honour, the honour.

⁸ Peidiwch � bod mewn dyled i neb, ar wah�n i'r ddyled o garu eich gilydd. Y mae'r sawl sy'n caru pobl eraill wedi cyflawni holl ofynion y Gyfraith.

⁸To no one owe anything, except to love one another; for he who is loving the other — law he hath fulfilled,

⁹ Oherwydd y mae'r gorchmynion, "Na odineba, na ladd, na ladrata, na chwennych", a phob gorchymyn arall, wedi eu crynhoi yn y gorchymyn hwn: "C�r dy gymydog fel ti dy hun."

⁹for, `Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false testimony, Thou shalt not covet;` and if there is any other command, in this word it is summed up, in this: `Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself;`

¹⁰ Ni all cariad wneud cam � chymydog. Y mae cariad, felly, yn gyflawniad o holl ofynion y Gyfraith.

¹⁰the love to the neighbor doth work no ill; the love, therefore, [is] the fulness of law.

¹¹ Ie, gwnewch hyn oll fel rhai sy'n ymwybodol o'r amser, mai dyma'r awr ichwi i ddeffro o gwsg. Erbyn hyn, y mae ein hiachawdwriaeth yn nes atom nag oedd pan ddaethom i gredu.

¹¹And this, knowing the time, that for us, the hour already [is] to be aroused out of sleep, for now nearer [is] our salvation than when we did believe;

¹² Y mae'r nos ar ddod i ben, a'r dydd ar wawrio. Gadewch inni, felly, roi heibio weithredoedd y tywyllwch, a gwisgo arfau'r goleuni.

¹²the night did advance, and the day came nigh; let us lay aside, therefore, the works of the darkness, and let us put on the armour of the light;

¹³ Gadewch inni fyw yn weddus, fel yng ngolau dydd, heb roi dim lle i loddest a meddwdod, i anniweirdeb ac anlladrwydd, i gynnen ac eiddigedd.

¹³as in day-time, let us walk becomingly; not in revellings and drunkennesses, not in chamberings and lasciviousnesses, not in strife and emulation;

¹⁴ Gwisgwch yr Arglwydd Iesu Grist amdanoch; a pheidiwch � rhoi eich bryd ar foddhau chwantau'r cnawd.

¹⁴but put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and for the flesh take no forethought — for desires.
