¹ Wedi hyn, dechreuodd y Moabiaid a'r Ammoniaid, gyda rhai o'r Meuniaid ryfela yn erbyn Jehosaffat.

¹And it came to pass after this [that] the children of Moab, and the children of Ammon, and with them certain of the Maonites, came against Jehoshaphat to battle.

² Daeth rhywrai at Jehosaffat a dweud wrtho, "Y mae mintai fawr yn dod yn dy erbyn o Edom, o'r ochr draw i'r m�r, ac y mae hi eisoes yn Hasason-tamar" (hynny yw, En-gedi).

²And they came and told Jehoshaphat saying, A great multitude is come against thee from beyond the sea, from Syria; and behold, they are in Hazazon-tamar, which is Engedi.

³ Yn ei ddychryn penderfynodd Jehosaffat geisio'r ARGLWYDD, a chyhoeddodd ympryd trwy holl Jwda.

³And Jehoshaphat feared, and set himself to seek Jehovah, and proclaimed a fast throughout Judah.

⁴ Yna ymgasglodd pobl Jwda i ofyn am gymorth gan yr ARGLWYDD; daethant o bob un o'u dinasoedd i'w geisio ef.

⁴And Judah gathered themselves together to ask [help] of Jehovah: even out of all the cities of Judah they came to seek Jehovah.

⁵ Yn y cynulliad hwn o bobl Jwda a Jerwsalem yn nhu375? yr ARGLWYDD, fe safodd Jehosaffat o flaen y cyntedd newydd,

⁵And Jehoshaphat stood in the congregation of Judah and Jerusalem, in the house of Jehovah, before the new court;

⁶ a dweud, "O ARGLWYDD, Duw ein hynafiaid, onid ti sy'n Dduw yn y nefoedd? Ti sy'n llywodraethu ar holl deyrnasoedd y cenhedloedd; yn dy law di y mae nerth a chadernid, fel na ddichon neb dy wrthsefyll.

⁶and he said, Jehovah, God of our fathers, art not thou God in the heavens, and rulest thou not over all the kingdoms of the nations? And in thy hand there is power and might, and none can withstand thee.

⁷ Onid ti, ein Duw, a yrraist drigolion y wlad hon allan o flaen dy bobl Israel, a'i rhoi hi am byth i had Abraham, dy gyfaill?

⁷Hast not thou, our God, dispossessed the inhabitants of this land before thy people Israel, and given it for ever to the seed of Abraham, thy friend?

⁸ Y maent hwy wedi byw ynddi ac wedi adeiladu cysegr i'th enw di, a dweud,

⁸And they have dwelt therein, and have built thee a sanctuary therein for thy name, saying,

⁹ 'Os daw unrhyw niwed i ni trwy gleddyf, llifeiriant, haint neu newyn, yna fe safwn o'th flaen di ac o flaen y tu375? hwn, oherwydd y mae dy enw arno. Gwaeddwn arnat yn ein trybini, ac fe wrandewi di arnom a'n gwaredu.'

⁹If evil come upon us, sword, judgment, or pestilence, or famine, and we stand before this house and before thee -- for thy name is in this house -- and cry unto thee in our distress, then thou wilt hear and save.

¹⁰ Yn awr, dyma'r Ammoniaid, y Moabiaid a gwu375?r Mynydd Seir, pobl na adewaist i Israel ymosod arnynt wrth ddod allan o'r Aifft, pobl y troes Israel i ffwrdd oddi wrthynt a pheidio �'u difetha;

¹⁰And now, behold, the children of Ammon and Moab, and those of mount Seir, amongst whom thou wouldest not let Israel go when they came out of the land of Egypt, (for they turned from them, and destroyed them not,)

¹¹ gw�l sut y mae'r rhain yn talu'n �l i ni trwy ddod i'n gyrru allan o'th etifeddiaeth, a roddaist i ni.

¹¹behold, they reward us, in coming to cast us out of thy possession, which thou hast given us to possess.

¹² O ein Duw, oni wnei di gyhoeddi barn arnynt? Oherwydd nid ydym ni'n ddigon cryf i wrthsefyll y fintai fawr hon sy'n dod yn ein herbyn. Ni wyddom ni beth i'w wneud, ond dibynnwn arnat ti."

¹²Our God, wilt thou not judge them? for we have no might in presence of this great company which cometh against us, neither know we what to do; but our eyes are upon thee.

¹³ Yr oedd holl wu375?r Jwda, gyda'u rhai bach, eu gwragedd a'u plant, yn sefyll o flaen yr ARGLWYDD.

¹³And all Judah stood before Jehovah, with their little ones, their wives, and their sons.

¹⁴ Yr oedd Jehasiel fab Sechareia, fab Benaia, fab Jeiel, fab Mattaneia, Lefiad o dylwyth Asaff, yng nghanol y cynulliad; daeth ysbryd yr ARGLWYDD arno,

¹⁴And upon Jahaziel the son of Zechariah, the son of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah, a Levite of the sons of Asaph, upon him came the Spirit of Jehovah, in the midst of the congregation;

¹⁵ a dywedodd, "Gwrandewch, holl Jwda a thrigolion Jerwsalem ynghyd �'r brenin Jehosaffat. Y mae'r ARGLWYDD yn dweud wrthych am beidio ag ofni na digalonni o achos y fintai fawr yma, oherwydd brwydr Duw yw hon, nid eich brwydr chwi.

¹⁵and he said, Be attentive, all Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, and thou king Jehoshaphat! Thus saith Jehovah unto you: Fear not, nor be dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God's.

¹⁶ Ewch i lawr yn eu herbyn yfory, pan fyddant yn dringo rhiw Sis, ac fe'u cewch ym mhen draw'r dyffryn, yn ymyl anialwch Jerual.

¹⁶To-morrow go down against them: behold, they come up by the ascent of Ziz; and ye shall find them at the end of the valley, before the wilderness of Jeruel.

¹⁷ Ni fydd raid i chwi ymladd yn y frwydr hon; safwch yn llonydd yn eich lle, ac fe welwch y fuddugoliaeth a rydd yr ARGLWYDD ichwi, O Jwda a Jerwsalem. Peidiwch ag ofni na digalonni; ewch allan yn eu herbyn yfory, a bydd yr ARGLWYDD gyda chwi."

¹⁷Ye shall not have to fight on this occasion: set yourselves, stand and see the salvation of Jehovah [who is] with you! Judah and Jerusalem, fear not nor be dismayed; to-morrow go out against them, and Jehovah will be with you.

¹⁸ Yna fe ymgrymodd Jehosaffat i'r llawr, a syrthiodd holl Jwda a thrigolion Jerwsalem o flaen yr ARGLWYDD a'i addoli.

¹⁸And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground; and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell down before Jehovah, worshipping Jehovah.

¹⁹ Yna safodd y Lefiaid oedd yn perthyn i'r Cohathiaid a'r Corahiaid i foliannu'r ARGLWYDD, Duw Israel, � bloedd uchel.

¹⁹And the Levites, of the sons of the Kohathites, and of the sons of the Korahites, stood up to praise Jehovah the God of Israel with an exceeding loud voice.

²⁰ Felly, codasant yn fore a mynd i anialwch Tecoa. Fel yr oeddent yn cychwyn, safodd Jehosaffat a dweud, "Gwrandewch arnaf fi, Jwda a thrigolion Jerwsalem. Ymddiriedwch yn yr ARGLWYDD eich Duw, ac fe fyddwch yn ddiogel; credwch yn ei broffwydi, ac fe lwyddwch."

²⁰And they rose early in the morning, and went forth towards the wilderness of Tekoa; and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem! Believe in Jehovah your God, and ye shall be established; believe his prophets, and ye shall prosper!

²¹ Wedi ymgynghori �'r bobl, penododd gantorion i foli'r ARGLWYDD, ac i ganu mawl i brydferthwch ei sancteiddrwydd, wrth fynd allan ar flaen y fyddin. Dywedasant, "Diolchwch i'r ARGLWYDD, oherwydd y mae ei gariad hyd byth."

²¹And he consulted with the people, and appointed singers to Jehovah, and those that should praise in holy splendour, as they went forth before the armed men, and say, Give thanks to Jehovah; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever!

²² Fel yr oeddent yn dechrau canu a moli, gosododd yr ARGLWYDD gynllwyn yn erbyn yr Ammoniaid a'r Moabiaid a gwu375?r Mynydd Seir, a oedd yn ymosod ar Jwda, a chawsant eu gorchfygu.

²²And when they began the song of triumph and praise, Jehovah set liers-in-wait against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, who had come against Judah, and they were smitten.

²³ Trodd yr Ammoniaid a'r Moabiaid i ymosod ar drigolion Mynydd Seir, a'u difa'n llwyr; ac wedi iddynt eu difodi hwy aethant ymlaen i ddifetha'i gilydd.

²³And the children of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, to exterminate and destroy [them]; and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, they helped to destroy one another.

²⁴ Pan gyrhaeddodd Jwda wylfa ger yr anialwch, a throi i edrych ar y fintai, gwelsant gyrff y meirw ar y llawr ym mhobman; nid oedd neb wedi dianc.

²⁴And Judah came on to the mountain-watch in the wilderness, and they looked toward the multitude; and behold, they were dead bodies fallen to the earth, and none had escaped.

²⁵ Daeth Jehosaffat a'i filwyr i'w hysbeilio, a chawsant arnynt lawer o olud a gwisgoedd, ac eiddo gwerthfawr. Yr oedd ganddynt fwy o ysbail nag y gallent ei gario, ac am fod cymaint ohono buont am dridiau yn ei gludo.

²⁵And Jehoshaphat and his people came to plunder the spoil of them, and they found among them in abundance, both riches with the dead bodies, and precious things, and they stripped off for themselves more than they could carry away; and they were three days in plundering the spoil, it was so much.

²⁶ Ar y pedwerydd dydd daethant ynghyd i ddyffryn Beracha; am iddynt fendithio'r ARGLWYDD yno, gelwir y lle yn ddyffryn Beracha hyd heddiw.

²⁶And on the fourth day they assembled themselves in the valley of Berachah, for there they blessed Jehovah; therefore the name of that place was called The valley of Berachah, to this day.

²⁷ Yna dychwelodd holl filwyr Jwda a Jerwsalem dan arweiniad Jehosaffat i Jerwsalem mewn llawenydd, am i'r ARGLWYDD roi buddugoliaeth iddynt dros eu gelynion;

²⁷And they returned, all the men of Judah and Jerusalem, and Jehoshaphat at their head, to go again to Jerusalem with joy; for Jehovah had made them to rejoice over their enemies.

²⁸ daethant i du375?'r ARGLWYDD yn Jerwsalem gyda nablau, telynau a thrwmpedau.

²⁸And they came to Jerusalem with lutes and harps and trumpets, to the house of Jehovah.

²⁹ Daeth ofn Duw ar holl deyrnasoedd y gwledydd pan glywsant fod yr ARGLWYDD wedi ymladd yn erbyn gelynion Israel.

²⁹And the terror of God was on all the kingdoms of the lands, when they had heard that Jehovah fought against the enemies of Israel.

³⁰ Felly cafodd teyrnas Jehosaffat heddwch, a rhoddodd ei Dduw lonydd iddo oddi wrth bawb o'i amgylch.

³⁰And the realm of Jehoshaphat was quiet; and his God gave him rest round about.

³¹ Teyrnasodd Jehosaffat ar Jwda. Pymtheg ar hugain oedd ei oed pan ddaeth i'r orsedd, a theyrnasodd am bum mlynedd ar hugain yn Jerwsalem. Asuba ferch Silhi oedd enw ei fam.

³¹And Jehoshaphat reigned over Judah: he was thirty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty-five years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Azubah, daughter of Shilhi.

³² Dilynodd lwybr ei dad Asa yn hollol ddiwyro, a gwneud yr hyn oedd yn uniawn yng ngolwg yr ARGLWYDD.

³²And he walked in the way of Asa his father, and turned not aside from it, doing what was right in the sight of Jehovah.

³³ Er hynny, ni symudwyd yr uchelfeydd, ac nid oedd y bobl eto wedi gosod eu bryd ar Dduw eu hynafiaid.

³³Only, the high places were not removed; and as yet the people had not directed their hearts to the God of their fathers.

³⁴ Y mae gweddill hanes Jehosaffat, o'r dechrau i'r diwedd, wedi ei ysgrifennu yng nghronicl Jehu fab Hanani, sydd wedi ei gynnwys yn Llyfr Brenhinoedd Israel.

³⁴And the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, first and last, behold, they are written in the words of Jehu the son of Hanani, which are inserted in the book of the kings of Israel.

³⁵ Wedi hyn gwnaeth Jehosaffat brenin Jwda gynghrair �'r drwg-weithredwr, Ahaseia brenin Israel.

³⁵And after this Jehoshaphat king of Judah joined himself with Ahaziah king of Israel, who did very wickedly.

³⁶ Cydweithiodd ag ef i wneud llongau i fynd i Tarsis, a'u hadeiladu yn Esion-Geber.

³⁶And he joined himself with him to make ships to go to Tarshish; and they made the ships in Ezion-geber.

³⁷ Ond proffwydodd Elieser fab Dodafa o Maresa yn erbyn Jehosaffat, a dweud, "Am i ti wneud cynghrair ag Ahaseia, fe ddryllia yr ARGLWYDD dy waith." Felly dinistriwyd y llongau, ac ni allent hwylio i Tarsis.

³⁷And Eliezer the son of Dodavah, of Mareshah, prophesied against Jehoshaphat, saying, Because thou hast joined thyself with Ahaziah, Jehovah has broken thy works. And the ships were broken, and could not go to Tarshish.
