¹ Ymladdodd y Philistiaid yn erbyn yr Israeliaid, a ffodd yr Israeliaid rhagddynt gan syrthio'n glwyfedig ar Fynydd Gilboa.

¹And the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain on mount Gilboa.

² Daliodd y Philistiaid Saul a'i feibion, a lladd Jonathan, Abinadab a Malcisua, meibion Saul.

²And the Philistines followed hard after Saul and after his sons; and the Philistines smote Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchi-shua, Saul's sons.

³ Aeth y frwydr yn galed yn erbyn Saul, a daeth saethwyr o hyd iddo a'i glwyfo.

³And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers came up with him, and he was terrified by the archers.

⁴ Yna dywedodd Saul wrth ei gludydd arfau, "Tyn dy gleddyf a thrywana fi, rhag i'r rhai dienwaededig hyn ddod a'm gwaradwyddo." Nid oedd ei gludydd arfau yn fodlon, oherwydd yr oedd ofn mawr arno; felly cymerodd Saul y cleddyf a syrthio arno.

⁴Then said Saul to his armour-bearer, Draw thy sword, and thrust me through with it; lest these uncircumcised come and abuse me. But his armour-bearer would not; for he was much afraid. So Saul took the sword and fell on it.

⁵ Pan welodd y cludydd arfau fod Saul wedi marw, syrthiodd yntau ar ei gleddyf a marw.

⁵And when his armour-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he fell likewise on the sword, and died.

⁶ Felly bu farw Saul a'i dri mab, ei holl deulu yn marw yr un pryd.

⁶So Saul died, and his three sons, and all his house died together.

⁷ Pan welodd yr holl Israeliaid oedd yn y dyffryn fod y fyddin wedi ffoi, a bod Saul a'i feibion wedi marw, gadawsant eu trefi a ffoi; yna daeth y Philistiaid a byw ynddynt.

⁷And when all the men of Israel that were in the valley saw that they fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook their cities and fled; and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.

⁸ Trannoeth, pan ddaeth y Philistiaid i ysbeilio'r lladdedigion, cawsant Saul a'i feibion yn farw ar Fynydd Gilboa.

⁸And it came to pass the next day, that the Philistines came to strip the slain, and they found Saul and his sons fallen on mount Gilboa.

⁹ Wedi iddynt ei ysbeilio torasant ei ben a chymryd ei arfau oddi arno, ac anfon neges drwy Philistia i gyhoeddi'r newydd da i'w delwau ac i'r bobl.

⁹And they stripped him, and took his head, and his armour, and sent [them] into the land of the Philistines round about, to announce the glad tidings to their idols, and to the people.

¹⁰ Rhoesant ei arfau yn nheml eu duwiau, a chrogi ei benglog yn nheml Dagon.

¹⁰And they put his armour in the house of their god, and fastened his head in the house of Dagon.

¹¹ Pan glywodd pobl Jabes-gilead y cwbl yr oedd y Philistiaid wedi ei wneud i Saul,

¹¹And when all they of Jabesh-Gilead heard of all that the Philistines had done to Saul,

¹² aeth yr holl ryfelwyr allan ar unwaith a chymryd corff Saul a chyrff ei feibion, a'u cludo i Jabes a chladdu eu hesgyrn dan y dderwen yno, ac ymprydio am saith diwrnod.

¹²all the valiant men arose, and took up the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh, and buried their bones under the terebinth of Jabesh, and fasted seven days.

¹³ Bu Saul farw am iddo fradychu'r ARGLWYDD trwy anufuddhau i'w air, a throi at ddewiniaeth am arweiniad yn lle ceisio arweiniad gan yr ARGLWYDD.

¹³And Saul died for his unfaithfulness which he committed against Jehovah, because of the word of Jehovah which he kept not, and also for having inquired of the spirit of Python, asking counsel of it;

¹⁴ Felly lladdodd yr ARGLWYDD ef a rhoi'r frenhiniaeth i Ddafydd fab Jesse.

¹⁴and he asked not counsel of Jehovah; therefore he slew him, and transferred the kingdom to David the son of Jesse.
