1 Unwaith eto enynnodd dicter yr ARGLWYDD yn erbyn yr Israeliaid, ac anogodd Ddafydd yn eu herbyn trwy ddweud, "Dos, cyfrifa'r Israeliaid a'r Jwdeaid."
1And again the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Israel, and he moved David against them saying, Go, number Israel and Judah.
2 Felly fe ddywedodd y brenin wrth Joab, a swyddogion y fyddin oedd gydag ef, "Dos drwy holl lwythau Israel o Dan i Beerseba a chyfrifa'r bobl, er mwyn imi wybod eu nifer."
2And the king said to Joab the captain of the host, who was with him, Go, I pray thee, through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan even to Beer-sheba, and count the people, that I may know the number of the people.
3 Dywedodd Joab wrth y brenin, "Bydded i'r ARGLWYDD dy Dduw luosogi'r bobl ganwaith yr hyn ydynt, ac i tithau, f'arglwydd frenin, ei weld �'th lygaid dy hun; ond pam y mae f'arglwydd frenin �'i fryd ar wneud hyn?"
3And Joab said to the king, May Jehovah thy God even add to the people, how many soever they be, a hundredfold, and that the eyes of my lord the king may see [it]; but why does my lord the king delight in this thing?
4 Ond yr oedd gair y brenin yn drech na Joab a swyddogion y fyddin; felly fe aeth Joab a swyddogion y fyddin allan yn �l gorchymyn y brenin i gyfrif pobl Israel.
4But the king's word prevailed against Joab, and against the captains of the army. And Joab and the captains of the army went out from the presence of the king to count the people of Israel.
5 Wedi croesi'r Iorddonen, dechreusant yn Aroer, i'r de o'r ddinas sydd yng nghanol y dyffryn, yna aethant i Gad, ac ymlaen i Jaser.
5And they passed over the Jordan, and encamped in Aroer, on the right side of the city that is in the midst of the ravine of Gad, and toward Jaazer.
6 Yna daethant i Gilead a gwlad yr Hethiaid, cyn belled � Cades; ac i Dan a Jaan, a chwmpasu at Sidon.
6And they came to Gilead, and to the land of Tahtim-hodshi; and came to Dan-jaan, and to the environs of Sidon;
7 Daethant wedyn at ddinas gaerog Tyrus, a holl drefi'r Hefiaid a'r Canaaneaid, a gorffen yn Negef Jwda, yn Beerseba.
7and they came to the fortified city of Tyre, and to all the cities of the Hivites and of the Canaanites; and went out to the south of Judah, to Beer-sheba.
8 Wedi iddynt deithio drwy'r wlad gyfan, daethant yn �l i Jerwsalem ymhen naw mis ac ugain diwrnod.
8And they went through all the land, and came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days.
9 Rhoddodd Joab swm cyfrifiad y bobl i'r brenin: yr oedd yn Israel wyth gan mil o wu375?r abl i drin cleddyf, ac yr oedd milwyr Jwda yn bum can mil.
9And Joab gave the sum of the number of the people to the king; and there were of Israel eight hundred thousand valiant men that drew sword; and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand men.
10 Wedi iddo gyfrif y bobl, pigodd cydwybod Dafydd ef; a dywedodd wrth yr ARGLWYDD, "Pechais yn fawr trwy wneud hyn; am hynny, O ARGLWYDD, maddau i'th was, oherwydd b�m yn ff�l iawn."
10And David's heart smote him after he had numbered the people. And David said to Jehovah, I have sinned greatly in what I have done; and now, I beseech thee, Jehovah, put away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.
11 Wedi i Ddafydd godi fore trannoeth, daeth gair yr ARGLWYDD at y proffwyd Gad, gweledydd Dafydd, gan ddweud,
11And when David arose in the morning, the word of Jehovah came to the prophet Gad, David's seer, saying,
12 "Dos a dywed wrth Ddafydd, 'Fel hyn y dywed yr ARGLWYDD: Yr wyf yn cynnig tri pheth iti; dewis di un ohonynt, ac fe'i gwnaf iti'."
12Go and say to David, Thus saith Jehovah: I impose on thee three [things]; choose one of them that I may do it unto thee.
13 Daeth Gad at Ddafydd a'i hysbysu a dweud wrtho, "A fynni di dair blynedd o newyn yn dy wlad, ynteu tri mis o ffoi o flaen dy wrthwynebwyr tra byddant yn dy erlid, ynteu tridiau o haint yn dy wlad? Ystyria ac edrych pa ateb a roddaf i'r un a'm hanfonodd."
13And Gad came to David, and told him, and said to him, Shall seven years of famine come to thee in thy land? or wilt thou flee three months before thine adversaries while they pursue thee? or shall there be three days' pestilence in thy land? Now be aware and consider what word I shall bring again to him that sent me.
14 Dywedodd Dafydd wrth Gad, "Y mae'n gyfyng iawn arnaf, ond bydded inni syrthio i law'r ARGLWYDD, am fod ei drugareddau'n aml, yn hytrach nag imi syrthio i ddwylo pobl."
14And David said to Gad, I am in a great strait: let us fall, I pray thee, into the hand of Jehovah; for his mercies are great; but let me not fall into the hand of man.
15 Felly dewisodd Dafydd yr haint. Yr oedd yn dymor y cynhaeaf gwenith, ac anfonodd yr ARGLWYDD haint ar Israel o'r bore hyd derfyn y cyfnod penodedig. Bu farw deng mil a thrigain o'r bobl o Dan i Beerseba.
15And Jehovah sent a pestilence upon Israel from the morning even to the set time; and there died of the people from Dan even to Beer-sheba seventy thousand men.
16 Ond pan estynnodd yr angel ei law yn erbyn Jerwsalem i'w dinistrio, edifarhaodd yr ARGLWYDD am y niwed, a dywedodd wrth yr angel oedd yn distrywio'r bobl, "Digon bellach! Atal dy law." Yr oedd angel yr ARGLWYDD yn ymyl llawr dyrnu Arafna y Jebusiad.
16And the angel stretched out his hand upon Jerusalem to destroy it; but Jehovah repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed among the people, It is enough: withdraw now thine hand. And the angel of Jehovah was by the threshing-floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
17 Pan welodd Dafydd yr angel yn taro'r bobl, dywedodd wrth yr ARGLWYDD, "Myfi sydd wedi pechu, a myfi sydd wedi gwneud drwg; ond am y defaid hyn, beth a wnaethant hwy? Bydded dy law yn f'erbyn i a'm teulu."
17And David spoke to Jehovah when he saw the angel that smote among the people, and said, Behold, it is I that have sinned, and it is I that have committed iniquity; but these sheep, what have they done? let thy hand, I pray thee, be on me, and on my father's house!
18 Daeth Gad at Ddafydd y diwrnod hwnnw a dweud wrtho, "Dos, a chyfod allor i'r ARGLWYDD ar lawr dyrnu Arafna y Jebusiad."
18And Gad came that day to David, and said to him, Go up, rear an altar to Jehovah in the threshing-floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
19 Felly, ar air Gad, fe aeth Dafydd fel y gorchmynnodd yr ARGLWYDD.
19And David, according to the saying of Gad, went up as Jehovah had commanded.
20 Pan edrychodd Arafna a gweld y brenin a'i weision yn dod tuag ato, aeth allan a moesymgrymu i'r brenin �'i wyneb i'r llawr.
20And Araunah looked, and saw the king and his servants coming on towards him; and Araunah went out, and bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground.
21 Ac meddai Arafna, "Pam y daeth f'arglwydd frenin at ei was?" Atebodd Dafydd, "I brynu gennyt y llawr dyrnu, i godi allor i'r ARGLWYDD er mwyn atal y pla sydd ar y bobl."
21And Araunah said, Why is my lord the king come to his servant? And David said, To buy the threshing-floor of thee, to build an altar to Jehovah, that the plague may be stayed from the people.
22 Yna dywedodd Arafna wrth Ddafydd, "Cymered f'arglwydd frenin ef ac offrymu'r hyn a fyn; edrych, dyma'r ychen ar gyfer y poethoffrwm, a'r sled ddyrnu ac iau'r ychen yn danwydd."
22And Araunah said to David, Let my lord the king take and offer up that which is good in his sight: see, [here are] oxen for the burnt-offering, and the threshing-sledges and implements of the oxen for wood.
23 Rhoddodd Arafna'r cwbl i'r brenin, a dweud wrtho, "Bydded yr ARGLWYDD dy Dduw yn fodlon arnat."
23All these things, O king, doth Araunah give to the king. And Araunah said to the king, Jehovah thy God accept thee.
24 Ond dywedodd y brenin wrth Arafna, "Na, rhaid imi ei brynu gennyt am bris. Nid wyf am aberthu i'r ARGLWYDD fy Nuw boethoffrwm di-gost." Felly prynodd Dafydd y llawr dyrnu a'r ychen am hanner can sicl o arian;
24And the king said to Araunah, No; but I will in any case buy [them] of thee at a price: neither will I offer up to Jehovah my God burnt-offerings without cost. And David bought the threshing-floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.
25 a chododd yno allor i'r ARGLWYDD, ac aberthu poethoffrymau a heddoffrymau. Der-byniodd yr ARGLWYDD ymbil ar ran y wlad, ac ataliwyd y pla oddi ar Israel.
25And David built there an altar to Jehovah, and offered up burnt-offerings and peace-offerings. And Jehovah was propitious to the land, and the plague was stayed from Israel.
