¹ Y mae'n rhaid imi ymffrostio. Ni wna ddim lles, ond af ymlaen i s�n am weledigaethau a datguddiadau a roddwyd i mi gan yr Arglwydd.

¹Well, it is not of profit to me to boast, for I will come to visions and revelations of [the] Lord.

² Gwn am ddyn yng Nghrist a gipiwyd, bedair blynedd ar ddeg yn �l, i fyny i'r drydedd nef � ai yn y corff, ai allan o'r corff, ni wn; y mae Duw'n gwybod.

²I know a man in Christ, fourteen years ago, (whether in [the] body I know not, or out of the body I know not, God knows;) such [a one] caught up to [the] third heaven.

³ Gwn i'r dyn hwnnw gael ei gipio i fyny i Baradwys � ai yn y corff, ai allan o'r corff, ni wn; y mae Duw'n gwybod.

³And I know such a man, (whether in [the] body or out of the body I know not, God knows;)

⁴ Ac fe glywodd draethu'r anhraethadwy, geiriau nad oes hawl gan neb dynol i'w llefaru.

⁴that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable things said which it is not allowed to man to utter.

⁵ Am hwnnw yr wyf yn ymffrostio; amdanaf fy hun nid ymffrostiaf, ar wah�n i'm gwendidau.

⁵Of such [a one] I will boast, but of myself I will not boast, unless in my weaknesses.

⁶ Ond os dewisaf ymffrostio, ni byddaf ff�l, oherwydd dweud y gwir y byddaf. Ond ymatal a wnaf, rhag i neb feddwl mwy ohonof na'r hyn y mae'n ei weld ynof neu'n ei glywed gennyf.

⁶For if I shall desire to boast, I shall not be a fool; for I will say [the] truth; but I forbear, lest any one should think as to me above what he sees me [to be], or whatever he may hear of me.

⁷ A rhag i mi ymddyrchafu o achos rhyfeddod y pethau a ddatguddiwyd imi, rhoddwyd draenen yn fy nghnawd, cennad oddi wrth Satan, i'm poeni, rhag imi ymddyrchafu.

⁷And that I might not be exalted by the exceeding greatness of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn for the flesh, a messenger of Satan that he might buffet me, that I might not be exalted.

⁸ Ynglu375?n � hyn deisyfais ar yr Arglwydd dair gwaith ar iddo'i symud oddi wrthyf.

⁸For this I thrice besought the Lord that it might depart from me.

⁹ Ond dywedodd wrthyf, "Digon i ti fy ngras i; mewn gwendid y daw fy nerth i'w anterth." Felly, yn llawen iawn fe ymffrostiaf fwyfwy yn fy ngwendidau, er mwyn i nerth Crist orffwys arnaf.

⁹And he said to me, My grace suffices thee; for [my] power is perfected in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather boast in my weaknesses, that the power of the Christ may dwell upon me.

¹⁰ Am hynny, yr wyf yn ymhyfrydu, er mwyn Crist, mewn gwendid, sarhad, gofid, erledigaeth, a chyfyngder. Oherwydd pan wyf wan, yna rwyf gryf.

¹⁰Wherefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in insults, in necessities, in persecutions, in straits, for Christ: for when I am weak, then I am powerful.

¹¹ Euthum yn ff�l, ond chwi a'm gyrrodd i hyn. Oherwydd dylaswn i gael fy nghanmol gennych chwi. Nid wyf fi yn �l mewn dim i'r archapostolion hyn, hyd yn oed os nad wyf fi'n ddim.

¹¹I have become a fool; *ye* have compelled me; for *I* ought to have been commended by you; for I have been nothing behind those who were in surpassing degree apostles, if also I am nothing.

¹² Cyflawnwyd arwyddion apostol yn eich plith gyda dyfalbarhad cyson, mewn arwyddion a rhyfeddodau a gwyrthiau nerthol.

¹²The signs indeed of the apostle were wrought among you in all endurance, signs, and wonders, and works of power.

¹³ Ym mha beth y bu'n waeth arnoch chwi na'r eglwysi eraill, ond yn hyn, na f�m i yn faich arnoch chwi? Maddeuwch imi y camwedd hwn.

¹³For in what is it that ye have been inferior to the other assemblies, unless that I myself have not been in laziness a charge upon you? Forgive me this injury.

¹⁴ Dyma fi'n barod i ddod atoch y drydedd waith. Ac nid wyf am fod yn faich arnoch. Oherwydd chwi yr wyf yn eu ceisio, nid eich eiddo; nid y plant a ddylai ddarparu ar gyfer eu rhieni, ond y rhieni ar gyfer eu plant.

¹⁴Behold, this third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not be in laziness a charge; for I do not seek yours, but you; for the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.

¹⁵ Fe wariaf fi fy eiddo yn llawen, ac fe'm gwariaf fy hunan i'r eithaf, dros eich eneidiau chwi. Os wyf fi'n eich caru chwi'n fwy, a wyf fi i gael fy ngharu'n llai?

¹⁵Now *I* shall most gladly spend and be utterly spent for your souls, if even in abundantly loving you I should be less loved.

¹⁶ Ond, a chaniat�u na f�m i'n dreth arnoch, eto honnir imi fod yn ddigon cyfrwys i'ch dal trwy ddichell.

¹⁶But be it so. *I* did not burden you, but being crafty I took you by guile.

¹⁷ A fanteisiais arnoch trwy unrhyw un o'r rhai a anfonais atoch?

¹⁷Did I make gain of you by any of those whom I have sent to you?

¹⁸ Deisyfais ar Titus fynd atoch, ac anfonais ein brawd gydag ef. A fanteisiodd Titus arnoch? Onid ymddwyn yn yr un ysbryd a wnaethom ni, ac onid dilyn yr un llwybrau?

¹⁸I begged Titus, and sent the brother with [him]: did Titus at all make gain of you? have we not walked in the same spirit? [have we] not in the same steps?

¹⁹ A ydych yn tybio drwy'r amser mai ein hamddiffyn ein hunain i chwi yr ydym? Gerbron Duw yr ydym yn llefaru, yng Nghrist, a'r cwbl er adeiladaeth i chwi, fy nghyfeillion annwyl.

¹⁹Ye have long been supposing that we excuse ourselves to you: we speak before God in Christ; and all things, beloved, for your building up.

²⁰ Oherwydd y mae arnaf ofn na chaf chwi, pan ddof, fel y dymunwn ichwi fod, ac na'm ceir innau chwaith fel y dymunech chwi imi fod. Yr wyf yn ofni y bydd cynnen, eiddigedd, llidio, ymgiprys, difenwi, clebran, ymchwyddo, terfysgu.

²⁰For I fear lest perhaps coming I find you not such as I wish, and that *I* be found by you such as ye do not wish: lest [there might be] strifes, jealousies, angers, contentions, evil speakings, whisperings, puffings up, disturbances;

²¹ Yr wyf yn ofni rhag i'm Duw, pan ddof drachefn, fy narostwng o'ch blaen, a rhag imi orfod galaru dros lawer a oedd wedi pechu gynt, a heb edifarhau am yr amhurdeb a'r anfoesoldeb rhywiol a'r anlladrwydd a wnaethant.

²¹lest my God should humble me as to you when I come again, and that I shall grieve over many of those who have sinned before, and have not repented as to the uncleanness and fornication and licentiousness which they have practised.
