¹ Penderfynais beidio � dod atoch unwaith eto mewn tristwch.

¹But I have judged this with myself, not to come back to you in grief.

² Oherwydd os wyf fi'n eich trist�u, pwy fydd yna i'm llonni i ond y sawl a wnaed yn drist gennyf fi?

²For if *I* grieve you, who also [is] it that gladdens me, if not he that is grieved through me?

³ Ac ysgrifennais y llythyr hwnnw rhag imi ddod atoch, a chael tristwch gan y rhai a ddylai roi llawenydd imi. Y mae gennyf hyder amdanoch chwi oll, fod fy llawenydd i yn llawenydd i chwithau i gyd.

³And I have written this very [letter] [to you], that coming I may not have grief from those from whom I ought to have joy; trusting in you all that my joy is [that] of you all.

⁴ Oherwydd ysgrifennais atoch o ganol gorthrymder mawr a gofid calon, ac mewn dagrau lawer, nid i'ch trist�u chwi ond er mwyn ichwi wybod mor helaeth yw'r cariad sydd gennyf tuag atoch.

⁴For out of much tribulation and distress of heart I wrote to you, with many tears; not that ye may be grieved, but that ye may know the love which I have very abundantly towards you.

⁵ Os yw rhywun wedi peri tristwch, nid i mi y gwnaeth hynny, ond i chwi i gyd � i raddau, beth bynnag, rhag i mi or-ddweud.

⁵But if any one has grieved, he has grieved, not me, but in part (that I may not overcharge [you]) all of you.

⁶ Digon i'r fath un y gosb hon a osodwyd arno gan y mwyafrif,

⁶Sufficient to such a one [is] this rebuke which [has been inflicted] by the many;

⁷ a'ch gwaith chwi bellach yw maddau iddo a'i ddiddanu, rhag iddo gael ei lethu gan ormod o dristwch.

⁷so that on the contrary ye should rather shew grace and encourage, lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with excessive grief.

⁸ Am hynny yr wyf yn eich cymell i adfer eich cariad tuag ato.

⁸Wherefore I exhort you to assure him of [your] love.

⁹ Oherwydd f'amcan wrth ysgrifennu oedd eich gosod dan brawf, i weld a ydych yn ufudd ym mhob peth.

⁹For to this end also I have written, that I might know, by putting you to the test, if as to everything ye are obedient.

¹⁰ Y sawl yr ydych chwi'n maddau rhywbeth iddo, yr wyf fi'n maddau iddo hefyd. A'r hyn yr wyf fi wedi ei faddau, os oedd gennyf rywbeth i'w faddau, fe'i maddeuais er eich mwyn chwi yng ngolwg Crist,

¹⁰But to whom ye forgive anything, *I* also; for I also, what I have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, [it is] for your sakes in [the] person of Christ;

¹¹ rhag i Satan gael mantais arnom, oherwydd fe wyddom yn dda am ei ddichellion ef.

¹¹that we might not have Satan get an advantage against us, for we are not ignorant of *his* thoughts.

¹² Pan ddeuthum i Troas i bregethu Efengyl Crist, er bod drws wedi ei agor i'm gwaith yn yr Arglwydd,

¹²Now when I came to Troas for the [publication of the] glad tidings of the Christ, a door also being opened to me in [the] Lord,

¹³ ni chefais lonydd i'm hysbryd am na ddeuthum o hyd i'm brawd Titus. Felly cenais yn iach iddynt, a chychwyn am Facedonia.

¹³I had no rest in my spirit at not finding Titus my brother; but bidding them adieu, I came away to Macedonia.

¹⁴ Ond i Dduw y bo'r diolch, sydd bob amser yn ein harwain ni yng Nghrist yng ngorymdaith ei fuddugoliaeth ef, ac sydd ym mhob man, trwom ni, yn taenu ar led bersawr yr adnabyddiaeth ohono.

¹⁴But thanks [be] to God, who always leads us in triumph in the Christ, and makes manifest the odour of his knowledge through us in every place.

¹⁵ Canys perarogl Crist ydym ni i Dduw, i'r rhai sydd ar lwybr iachawdwriaeth ac i'r rhai sydd ar lwybr colledigaeth;

¹⁵For we are a sweet odour of Christ to God, in the saved and in those that perish:

¹⁶ i'r naill, arogl marwol yn arwain i farwolaeth; i'r lleill, persawr bywiol yn arwain i fywyd. Pwy sydd ddigonol i'r gwaith hwn?

¹⁶to the one an odour from death unto death, but to the others an odour from life unto life; and who [is] sufficient for these things?

¹⁷ Oherwydd nid pedlera gair Duw yr ydym ni fel y gwna cynifer, ond llefaru fel dynion didwyll, fel cenhadon Duw, a hynny yng ngu373?ydd Duw, yng Nghrist.

¹⁷For we do not, as the many, make a trade of the word of God; but as of sincerity, but as of God, before God, we speak in Christ.
