¹ Daeth ei fab Jehosaffat yn frenin yn lle Asa, ac fe benderfynodd ef wrthsefyll Israel.

¹And Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his stead, and strengthened himself against Israel.

² Rhoddodd filwyr ym mhob un o ddinasoedd caerog Jwda, a gosod garsiynau yng ngwlad Jwda ac yn ninasoedd Effraim, sef y dinasoedd a gymerwyd gan ei dad Asa.

²And he placed forces in all the fortified cities of Judah, and set garrisons in the land of Judah, and in the cities of Ephraim that Asa his father had taken.

³ A bu'r ARGLWYDD gyda Jehosaffat am iddo ddilyn llwybrau cynnar ei dad Dafydd a gwrthod ymofyn �'r Baalim,

³And Jehovah was with Jehoshaphat, for he walked in the first ways of his father David, and sought not unto the Baals;

⁴ a throi yn hytrach at Dduw ei hynafiaid a chadw ei orchmynion, a pheidio � dilyn esiampl Israel.

⁴but he sought the God of his father, and walked in his commandments, and not after the doings of Israel.

⁵ Felly, sicrhaodd yr ARGLWYDD y frenhiniaeth yn llaw Jehosaffat, ac fe roddodd holl Jwda anrhegion iddo, nes bod ganddo olud a chyfoeth mawr iawn.

⁵And Jehovah established the kingdom in his hand; and all Judah gave gifts to Jehoshaphat; and he had riches and honour in abundance.

⁶ Dilynodd yr ARGLWYDD yn ffyddlon, a hefyd fe dynnodd ymaith o Jwda yr uchelfeydd a'r delwau o Asera.

⁶And he took courage in the ways of Jehovah; moreover, he removed the high places and Asherahs out of Judah.

⁷ Yn nhrydedd flwyddyn ei deyrnasiad anfonodd ei dywysogion Ben-hail, Obadeia, Sechareia, Nethaneel a Michaia i ddysgu yn ninasoedd Jwda.

⁷And in the third year of his reign he sent his princes, Ben-hail, and Obadiah, and Zechariah, and Nethaneel, and Micah, to teach in the cities of Judah;

⁸ Gyda hwy fe aeth y Lefiaid Semaia, Nethaneia, Sebadeia, Asahel, Semiramoth, Jehonathan, Adoneia, Tobeia a Tob-adoneia, a hefyd yr offeiriaid Elisama a Jehoram.

⁸and with them the Levites: Shemaiah, and Nethaniah, and Zebadiah, and Asahel, and Shemiramoth, and Jonathan, and Adonijah, and Tobijah, and Tob-Adonijah, Levites; and with them Elishama and Jehoram, the priests.

⁹ Aeth y rhain i ddysgu yn Jwda, ac yr oedd llyfr cyfraith yr ARGLWYDD ganddynt; teithiasant trwy holl ddinasoedd Jwda gan hyfforddi'r bobl.

⁹And they taught in Judah, and had the book of the law of Jehovah with them; and they went about through all the cities of Judah, and taught among the people.

¹⁰ Daeth ofn yr ARGLWYDD ar holl deyrnasoedd y gwledydd o amgylch Jwda, ac ni ddaethant i ryfela yn erbyn Jehosaffat.

¹⁰And the terror of Jehovah was upon all the kingdoms of the lands that were round about Judah, and they made no war against Jehoshaphat.

¹¹ Daeth rhai o'r Philistiaid ag anrhegion ac arian teyrnged i Jehosaffat; a daeth yr Arabiaid � diadelloedd, sef saith mil saith gant o hyrddod a saith mil saith gant o fychod.

¹¹And some of the Philistines brought Jehoshaphat gifts and tribute-silver. The Arabians also brought him flocks, seven thousand seven hundred rams, and seven thousand seven hundred he-goats.

¹² Aeth Jehosaffat o nerth i nerth. Adeiladodd gestyll a dinasoedd st�r yn Jwda, ac yr oedd yn gyfrifol am lawer o waith yn ninasoedd Jwda.

¹²And Jehoshaphat waxed exceeding great; and he built in Judah castles and store-cities.

¹³ Yr oedd ganddo hefyd filwyr nerthol yn Jerwsalem,

¹³And he had much business in the cities of Judah; and men of war, strong and valiant, in Jerusalem.

¹⁴ wedi eu rhestru yn �l eu tywythau fel hyn. O Jwda, swyddogion ar uned o fil: Adna yn ben, a chydag ef dri chan mil o wroniaid;

¹⁴And these are the numbers of them according to their fathers' houses. Of Judah the captains of thousands: Adnah the captain, and with him three hundred thousand mighty men of valour;

¹⁵ y nesaf ato ef, Jehohanan, y capten, gyda dau gant wyth deg o filoedd;

¹⁵and next to him was Johanan the captain, and with him two hundred and eighty thousand;

¹⁶ yna Amaseia fab Sichri, a oedd yn gwasanaethu'r ARGLWYDD o'i wirfodd, gyda dau gan mil o wroniaid.

¹⁶and next to him, Amasiah the son of Zichri, who willingly offered himself to Jehovah; and with him two hundred thousand mighty men of valour.

¹⁷ O Benjamin: y gwron Eliada, gyda dau gan mil yn cario bwa a tharian;

¹⁷And of Benjamin: Eliada, a mighty man of valour, and with him two hundred thousand, armed with bow and shield;

¹⁸ yna Jehosabad, gyda chant wyth deg o filoedd yn barod i ryfel.

¹⁸and next to him was Jehozabad, and with him a hundred and eighty thousand ready prepared for war.

¹⁹ Dyma'r rhai oedd yn gwasanaethu'r brenin, ar wah�n i'r rhai a osododd ef yn y dinasoedd caerog trwy holl Jwda.

¹⁹These were they that waited on the king, besides those that the king had put in the fortified cities throughout Judah.
