¹ Tra oedd Apolos yng Nghorinth, teithiodd Paul drwy'r parthau uchaf, a daeth i Effesus. Yno daeth o hyd i rai disgyblion,

¹And it came to pass, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul, having passed through the upper districts, came to Ephesus, and finding certain disciples,

² a gofynnodd iddynt, "A dderbyniasoch yr Ysbryd Gl�n pan gredasoch?" Meddent hwythau wrtho, "Naddo; ni chlywsom hyd yn oed fod yna Ysbryd Gl�n."

²he said to them, Did ye receive [the] Holy Spirit when ye had believed? And they [said] to him, We did not even hear if [the] Holy Spirit was [come].

³ Dywedodd yntau, "� pha fedydd, ynteu, y bedyddiwyd chwi?" Atebasant hwythau, "� bedydd Ioan."

³And he said, To what then were ye baptised? And they said, To the baptism of John.

⁴ Ac meddai Paul, "Bedydd edifeirwch oedd bedydd Ioan, ac fe ddywedodd wrth y bobl am gredu yn yr hwn oedd yn dod ar ei �l ef, hynny yw, yn Iesu."

⁴And Paul said, John indeed baptised [with] the baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe on him that was coming after him, that is, on Jesus.

⁵ Pan glywsant hyn, fe'u bedyddiwyd hwy i enw'r Arglwydd Iesu,

⁵And when they heard that, they were baptised to the name of the Lord Jesus.

⁶ a phan roddodd Paul ei ddwylo arnynt daeth yr Ysbryd Gl�n arnynt, a dechreusant lefaru � thafodau a phroffwydo.

⁶And Paul having laid [his] hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke with tongues and prophesied.

⁷ Yr oedd tua deuddeg ohonynt i gyd.

⁷And all the men were about twelve.

⁸ Aeth i mewn i'r synagog, ac am dri mis bu'n llefaru'n hy yno, gan ymresymu a cheisio eu hargyhoeddi ynghylch teyrnas Dduw.

⁸And entering into the synagogue, he spoke boldly during three months, reasoning and persuading [the things] concerning the kingdom of God.

⁹ Ond gan fod rhai yn ymgaledu ac yn gwrthod credu, ac yn difenwi'r Ffordd yng ngu373?ydd y gynulleidfa, ymneilltuodd oddi wrthynt gan gymryd ei ddisgyblion oddi yno, a pharhau i ymresymu bob dydd yn narlithfa Tyranus.

⁹But when some were hardened and disbelieved, speaking evil of the way before the multitude, he left them and separated the disciples, reasoning daily in the school of Tyrannus.

¹⁰ Parhaodd hyn am ddwy flynedd, nes i holl drigolion Asia, yn Iddewon a Groegiaid, glywed gair yr Arglwydd.

¹⁰And this took place for two years, so that all that inhabited Asia heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Greeks.

¹¹ Gan mor rhyfeddol oedd y gwyrthiau yr oedd Duw'n eu gwneud trwy ddwylo Paul,

¹¹And God wrought no ordinary miracles by the hands of Paul,

¹² byddai pobl yn dod � chadachau a llieiniau oedd wedi cyffwrdd �'i groen ef, ac yn eu gosod ar y cleifion, a byddai eu clefydau yn eu gadael, a'r ysbrydion drwg yn mynd allan ohonynt.

¹²so that even napkins or aprons were brought from his body [and put] upon the sick, and the diseases left them, and the wicked spirits went out.

¹³ A dyma rai o'r Iddewon a fyddai'n mynd o amgylch gan fwrw allan gythreuliaid, hwythau'n ceisio enwi enw'r Arglwydd Iesu uwch ben y rhai oedd ag ysbrydion drwg ganddynt, gan ddweud, "Yr wyf yn eich siarsio chwi yn enw Iesu, yr un y mae Paul yn ei bregethu."

¹³And certain of the Jewish exorcists also, who went about, took in hand to call upon those who had wicked spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, I adjure you by Jesus, whom Paul preaches.

¹⁴ Ac yr oedd gan ryw Scefa, prif offeiriad Iddewig, saith mab oedd yn gwneud hyn.

¹⁴And there were certain [men], seven sons of Sceva, Jewish high priest, who were doing this.

¹⁵ Ond atebodd yr ysbryd drwg hwy, "Iesu, yr wyf yn ei adnabod ef; a Paul, gwn amdano yntau; ond chwi, pwy ydych?"

¹⁵But the wicked spirit answering said to them, Jesus I know, and Paul I am acquainted with; but *ye*, who are ye?

¹⁶ Dyma'r dyn ac ynddo'r ysbryd drwg yn llamu arnynt, a'u trechu i gyd, a'u maeddu nes iddynt ffoi o'r tu375? yn noeth a chlwyfedig.

¹⁶And the man in whom the wicked spirit was leaped upon them, and having mastered both, prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.

¹⁷ Daeth hyn yn hysbys i'r holl Iddewon a Groegiaid oedd yn byw yn Effesus, a dychrynodd pawb; a chafodd enw'r Arglwydd Iesu ei fawrygu.

¹⁷And this became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, who inhabited Ephesus, and fear fell upon all of them, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.

¹⁸ Daeth llawer o'r rhai oedd bellach yn gredinwyr, a chyffesu eu dewiniaeth ar goedd.

¹⁸And many of those that believed came confessing and declaring their deeds.

¹⁹ Casglodd llawer o'r rhai a fu'n ymarfer � swynion eu llyfrau ynghyd, a'u llosgi yng ngu373?ydd pawb; cyfrifwyd gwerth y rhain, a'i gael yn hanner can mil o ddarnau arian.

¹⁹And many of those that practised curious arts brought their books [of charms] and burnt them before all. And they reckoned up the prices of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.

²⁰ Felly, yn �l nerth yr Arglwydd, yr oedd y gair yn cynyddu a llwyddo.

²⁰Thus with might the word of the Lord increased and prevailed.

²¹ Wedi i'r pethau hyn gael eu cwblhau, rhoddodd Paul ei fryd ar deithio trwy Facedonia ac Achaia, ac yna mynd i Jerwsalem. "Wedi imi fod yno," meddai, "rhaid imi weld Rhufain hefyd."

²¹And when these things were fulfilled, Paul purposed in his spirit to go to Jerusalem, passing through Macedonia and Achaia, saying, After I have been there I must see Rome also.

²² Anfonodd i Facedonia ddau o'r rhai oedd yn gweini arno, Timotheus ac Erastus, ond arhosodd ef ei hun am amser yn Asia.

²²And having sent into Macedonia two of those ministering to him, Timotheus and Erastus, he remained himself awhile in Asia.

²³ Yn ystod y cyfnod hwnnw, bu cynnwrf nid bychan ynglu375?n �'r Ffordd.

²³And there took place at that time no small disturbance about the way.

²⁴ Yr oedd gof arian o'r enw Demetrius, un oedd yn gwneud cysegrau arian i Artemis, ac felly yn cael llawer o waith i'w grefftwyr.

²⁴For a certain [man] by name Demetrius, a silver-beater, making silver temples of Artemis, brought no small gain to the artisans;

²⁵ Casglodd y rhain ynghyd, gyda'r gweithwyr o grefftau cyffelyb, a dywedodd: "Ddynion, fe wyddoch mai o'r fasnach hon y daw ein ffyniant ni.

²⁵whom having brought together, and those who wrought in such things, he said, Men, ye know that our well-living arises from this work,

²⁶ Yr ydych hefyd yn gweld ac yn clywed fod y Paul yma wedi perswadio tyrfa fawr, nid yn Effesus yn unig ond drwy Asia gyfan bron, a'u camarwain drwy ddweud nad duwiau mo'r duwiau o waith llaw.

²⁶and ye see and hear that this Paul has persuaded and turned away a great crowd, not only of Ephesus, but almost of all Asia, saying that they are no gods which are made with hands.

²⁷ Yn awr, y mae perygl nid yn unig y daw anfri ar ein crefft, ond hefyd y cyfrifir teml y dduwies fawr Artemis yn ddiddim, a hyd yn oed y bydd hi, y dduwies y mae Asia gyfan a'r byd yn ei haddoli, yn cael ei hamddifadu o'i mawrhydi."

²⁷Now not only there is danger for us that our business come into discredit, but also that the temple of the great goddess Artemis be counted for nothing, and that her greatness should be destroyed whom the whole of Asia and the world reveres.

²⁸ Pan glywsant hyn, llanwyd hwy � dicter, a dechreusant weiddi, "Mawr yw Artemis yr Effesiaid."

²⁸And having heard [this], and being filled with rage, they cried out, saying, Great [is] Artemis of the Ephesians.

²⁹ Llanwyd y ddinas �'u cynnwrf, a rhuthrasant yn unfryd i'r theatr, gan lusgo gyda hwy gyd�deithwyr Paul, y Macedoniaid Gaius ac Aristarchus.

²⁹And the [whole] city was filled with confusion, and they rushed with one accord to the theatre, having seized and carried off with [them] Gaius and Aristarchus, Macedonians, fellow-travellers of Paul.

³⁰ Yr oedd Paul yn dymuno cael mynd gerbron y dinasyddion, ond ni adawai'r disgyblion iddo;

³⁰But Paul intending to go in to the people, the disciples suffered him not;

³¹ a hefyd anfonodd rhai o uchel-swyddogion Asia, a oedd yn gyfeillgar ag ef, neges ato i erfyn arno beidio � mentro i'r theatr.

³¹and some of the Asiarchs also, who were his friends, sent to him and urged him not to throw himself into the theatre.

³² Yn y cyfamser, yr oedd rhai yn gweiddi un peth ac eraill beth arall, oherwydd yr oedd y cyfarfod mewn cynnwrf, ac ni wyddai'r rhan fwyaf i beth yr oeddent wedi dod ynghyd.

³²Different persons therefore cried out some different thing; for the assembly was tumultuous, and the most did not know for what cause they had come together.

³³ Ond tybiodd rhai o'r dyrfa mai Alexander oedd yr achos, gan i'r Iddewon ei wthio ef i'r blaen. Gwnaeth yntau arwydd �'i law, gan ddymuno ei amddiffyn ei hun wrth y dinasyddion.

³³But from among the crowd they put forward Alexander, the Jews pushing him forward. And Alexander, beckoning with his hand, would have made a defence to the people.

³⁴ Ond pan ddeallwyd mai Iddew ydoedd, cododd un llef oddi wrthynt oll, a buont yn gweiddi am tua dwy awr, "Mawr yw Artemis yr Effesiaid."

³⁴But, recognising that he was a Jew, there was one cry from all, shouting for about two hours, Great [is] Artemis of the Ephesians.

³⁵ Ond tawelodd clerc y ddinas y dyrfa, a dweud, "Bobl Effesus, pwy sydd heb wybod fod dinas yr Effesiaid yn geidwad teml Artemis fawr, a'r maen a syrthiodd o'r nef?

³⁵And the townclerk, having quieted the crowd, said, Ephesians, what man is there then who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is temple-keeper of Artemis the great, and of the [image] which fell down from heaven?

³⁶ Felly, gan na all neb wadu hyn, rhaid i chwithau fod yn dawel a pheidio � gwneud dim yn fyrbwyll.

³⁶These things therefore being undeniable, it is necessary that ye should be calm and do nothing headlong.

³⁷ Yr ydych wedi dod �'r dynion hyn gerbron, er nad ydynt yn ysbeilwyr temlau nac yn cablu ein duwies ni.

³⁷For ye have brought these men, [who are] neither temple-plunderers, nor speak injuriously of your goddess.

³⁸ Gan hynny, os oes gan Demetrius a'i gyd�grefftwyr achos yn erbyn rhywun, y mae'r llysoedd barn yn cael eu cynnal ac y mae rhaglawiaid yno; gadewch i'r ddwy ochr gyhuddo ei gilydd yn ffurfiol.

³⁸If therefore Demetrius and the artisans who [are] with him have a matter against any one, the courts are being held, and there are proconsuls: let them accuse one another.

³⁹ Ond os ydych am fynd �'r peth ymhellach, mewn cyfarfod rheolaidd o'r dinasyddion y mae i gael ei benderfynu.

³⁹But if ye inquire anything concerning other matters, it will be settled in the regular assembly.

⁴⁰ Yn wir, y mae perygl y cyhuddir ninnau o derfysg ynglu375?n �'r cyfarfod heddiw, gan nad oes dim achos amdano, ac am hynny ni allwn roi cyfrif am y cynnwrf yma."

⁴⁰For also we are in danger to be put in accusation for sedition for this [affair] of to-day, no cause existing in reference to which we shall be able to give a reason for this concourse.

⁴¹ Ac �'r geiriau hyn daeth �'r cyfarfod i ben.

⁴¹And having said these things, he dismissed the assembly.
