¹ "Y Brenin Nebuchadnesar at yr holl bobloedd a chenhedloedd ac ieithoedd trwy'r byd i gyd. Bydded heddwch i chwi!

¹Nebuchadnezzar the king unto all the peoples, nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth: Peace be multiplied unto you.

² Dewisais ddadlennu'r arwyddion a'r rhyfeddodau a wnaeth y Duw Goruchaf � mi.

²It hath seemed good unto me to declare the signs and wonders that the Most High God hath wrought toward me.

³ Mor fawr yw ei arwyddion ef, mor nerthol ei ryfeddodau! Y mae ei frenhiniaeth yn frenhiniaeth dragwyddol, a'i arglwyddiaeth o genhedlaeth i genhedlaeth.

³How great are his signs! and how mighty are his wonders! His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and his dominion is from generation to generation.

⁴ "Yr oeddwn i, Nebuchadnesar, yn mwynhau bywyd braf yn fy nhu375? a moethusrwydd yn fy llys.

⁴I Nebuchadnezzar was at rest in my house, and flourishing in my palace.

⁵ Tra oeddwn ar fy ngwely, cefais freuddwyd a'm dychrynodd, a chynhyrfwyd fi gan fy nychmygion, a chododd fy ngweledigaethau arswyd arnaf.

⁵I saw a dream which made me afraid, and the thoughts upon my bed and the visions of my head troubled me.

⁶ Gorchmynnais ddwyn ataf holl ddoethion Babilon i ddehongli fy mreuddwyd.

⁶And I made a decree to bring in all the wise men of Babylon before me, that they might make known unto me the interpretation of the dream.

⁷ Pan ddaeth y dewiniaid, y swynwyr, y Caldeaid, a'r hudolwyr, adroddais y freuddwyd wrthynt, ond ni fedrent ei dehongli.

⁷Then came in the scribes, the magicians, the Chaldeans, and the astrologers; and I told the dream before them; but they did not make known unto me the interpretation of it.

⁸ Yna daeth un arall ataf, sef Daniel, a elwir Beltesassar ar �l fy nuw i, dyn yn llawn o ysbryd y duwiau sanctaidd; ac adroddais fy mreuddwyd wrtho:

⁸But at the last Daniel came in before me, whose name is Belteshazzar, according to the name of my god, and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and before him I told the dream:

⁹ 'Beltesassar fy mhrif ddewin, gwn fod ysbryd y duwiau sanctaidd ynot ac nad oes dirgelwch sy'n rhy anodd i ti; gwrando ar y freuddwyd a welais, a mynega'i dehongliad.'

⁹O Belteshazzar, master of the scribes, because I know that the spirit of the holy gods is in thee, and no secret is too hard for thee, tell me the visions of my dream which I have seen, and the interpretation of it.

¹⁰ Dyma fy ngweledigaethau ar fy ngwely: Tra oeddwn yn edrych, gwelais goeden uchel iawn yng nghanol y ddaear.

¹⁰Thus were the visions of my head upon my bed: I saw, and behold a tree in the midst of the earth, and its height was great.

¹¹ Tyfodd y goeden yn fawr a chryf, a'i huchder yn cyrraedd i'r entrychion; yr oedd i'w gweld o bellteroedd byd.

¹¹The tree grew, and was strong, and its height reached unto the heavens, and the sight thereof to the end of all the earth.

¹² Yr oedd ei dail yn brydferth a'i ffrwyth yn niferus, ac ymborth arni i bopeth byw. Oddi tani c�i anifeiliaid loches, a thrigai adar yr awyr yn ei changhennau, a ch�i pob creadur byw fwyd ohoni.

¹²Its leaves were beautiful, and its fruit abundant, and in it was food for all: the beasts of the field found shade under it, and the birds of the heavens dwelt in its branches, and all flesh was fed from it.

¹³ "Tra oeddwn ar fy ngwely, yn edrych ar fy ngweledigaethau, gwelwn wyliwr sanctaidd yn dod i lawr o'r nefoedd,

¹³I saw in the visions of my head upon my bed, and behold, a watcher and a holy one came down from the heavens;

¹⁴ ac yn gweiddi'n uchel, 'Torrwch y goeden, llifiwch ei changhennau; tynnwch ei dail a gwasgarwch ei ffrwyth. Gwnewch i'r anifeiliaid ffoi o'i chysgod a'r adar o'i changhennau.

¹⁴he cried aloud, and said thus: Hew down the tree, and cut off its branches, shake off its leaves, and scatter its fruit; let the beasts get away from under it, and the birds from its branches.

¹⁵ Ond gadewch y boncyff a'i wraidd yn y ddaear, a chadwyn o haearn a phres amdano yng nghanol y maes. Bydd gwlith y nefoedd yn ei wlychu, a bydd ei le gyda'r anifeiliaid sy'n pori'r ddaear.

¹⁵Nevertheless leave the stump of its roots in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field; and let it be bathed with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the beasts in the grass of the earth.

¹⁶ Newidir y galon ddynol sydd ganddo a rhoir calon anifail iddo yn ei lle. Bydd hyn dros saith cyfnod.

¹⁶Let his heart be changed from man's, and let a beast's heart be given unto him; and let seven times pass over him.

¹⁷ Dedfryd y gwylwyr yw hyn, a dyma ddatganiad y rhai sanctaidd, er mwyn i bawb byw wybod mai'r Goruchaf sy'n rheoli teyrnasoedd pobl ac yn eu rhoi i'r sawl a fyn, ac yn gosod yr isaf yn ben arni.'

¹⁷This sentence is by the decree of the watchers, and the decision by the word of the holy ones: that the living may know that the Most High ruleth over the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men.

¹⁸ "Dyma'r freuddwyd a welais i, y Brenin Nebuchadnesar. Dywed tithau, Beltesassar, beth yw'r dehongliad, oherwydd ni fedr yr un o ddoethion fy nheyrnas ei dehongli imi, ond medri di, am fod ysbryd y duwiau sanctaidd ynot."

¹⁸This dream I, king Nebuchadnezzar, have seen; and thou, Belteshazzar, tell the interpretation, forasmuch as all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to make known unto me the interpretation; but thou art able, for the spirit of the holy gods is in thee.

¹⁹ Aeth Daniel, a enwyd Beltesassar, yn fud am funud, a'i feddwl mewn penbleth. Dywedodd y brenin, "Paid � gadael i'r freuddwyd a'r dehongliad dy boeni, Beltesassar." Atebodd yntau, "Boed hon yn freuddwyd i'th gaseion, a'i dehongliad i'th elynion.

¹⁹Then Daniel, whose name is Belteshazzar, was astonied for one hour, and his thoughts troubled him. The king spoke and said, Belteshazzar, let not the dream, nor its interpretation, trouble thee. Belteshazzar answered and said, My lord, the dream be to them that hate thee, and its interpretation to thine enemies!

²⁰ Y goeden a welaist yn tyfu'n fawr a chryf, a'i huchder yn cyrraedd i'r entrychion ac i'w gweld o bellteroedd byd,

²⁰The tree that thou sawest, which grew and was strong, whose height reached unto the heavens, and the sight of it to all the earth;

²¹ a'i dail yn brydferth, a'i ffrwyth yn niferus, ac ymborth arni i bopeth, a lloches i anifeiliaid oddi tani, a chartref i adar yr awyr yn ei changhennau �

²¹whose leaves were beautiful, and its fruit abundant, and in it was food for all; under which the beasts of the field dwelt, and in whose branches the birds of the heavens had their habitation:

²² ti, O frenin, yw'r goeden honno. Yr wyt wedi tyfu'n fawr a chryf, a'th fawredd wedi cynyddu ac wedi cyrraedd i'r entrychion, a'th frenhiniaeth yn ymestyn i bellteroedd byd.

²²it is thou, O king, who art grown and become strong; for thy greatness is grown, and reacheth unto the heavens, and thy dominion to the end of the earth.

²³ Fe welaist hefyd, O frenin, wyliwr sanctaidd yn dod i lawr ac yn dweud, 'Torrwch y goeden a difethwch hi, ond gadewch y boncyff a'i wraidd yn y ddaear, a chadwyn o haearn a phres amdano yng nghanol y maes; bydd gwlith y nefoedd yn ei wlychu, a bydd ei le gyda'r anifeiliaid, hyd nes i saith cyfnod fynd heibio.'

²³And whereas the king saw a watcher and a holy one coming down from the heavens, and saying, Hew the tree down, and destroy it; nevertheless leave the stump of its roots in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field; and let it be bathed with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the beasts of the field, till seven times pass over him:

²⁴ Dyma'r dehongliad, O frenin: Datganiad y Goruchaf ynglu375?n �'m harglwydd frenin yw hwn.

²⁴this is the interpretation, O king, and it is the decree of the Most High, which cometh upon my lord the king:

²⁵ Cei dy yrru o u373?ydd pobl, a bydd dy gartref gyda'r anifeiliaid; byddi'n bwyta gwellt fel ych, a bydd gwlith y nefoedd yn dy wlychu. Bydd saith cyfnod yn mynd heibio, nes iti wybod mai'r Goruchaf sy'n rheoli teyrnasoedd pobl ac yn eu rhoi i'r sawl a fyn.

²⁵They shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and thou shalt be bathed with the dew of heaven; and seven times shall pass over thee, till thou know that the Most High ruleth over the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will.

²⁶ Am y gorchymyn i adael boncyff y pren a'i wraidd, bydd dy frenhiniaeth yn sefydlog wedi iti ddeall mai'r nefoedd sy'n teyrnasu.

²⁶And whereas it was commanded to leave the stump of the roots of the tree; thy kingdom shall remain unto thee, after that thou shalt know that the heavens do rule.

²⁷ Derbyn fy nghyngor, O frenin: tro oddi wrth dy bechodau trwy wneud cyfiawnder, a'th droseddau trwy wneud trugaredd �'r tlodion, iti gael dyddiau hir o heddwch."

²⁷Therefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable unto thee, and break off thy sins by righteousness, and thine iniquities by shewing mercy to the poor; if it may be a lengthening of thy tranquillity.

²⁸ Digwyddodd hyn i gyd i'r Brenin Nebuchadnesar.

²⁸All this came upon king Nebuchadnezzar.

²⁹ Ym mhen deuddeng mis, yr oedd y brenin yn cerdded ar do ei balas ym Mabilon,

²⁹At the end of twelve months he was walking upon the royal palace of Babylon:

³⁰ ac meddai, "Onid hon yw Babilon fawr, a godais trwy rym fy nerth yn gartref i'r brenin ac er clod i'm mawrhydi?"

³⁰the king spoke and said, Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for the house of the kingdom by the might of my power and for the glory of my majesty?

³¹ Cyn i'r brenin orffen siarad, daeth llais o'r nefoedd, "Dyma neges i ti, O Frenin Nebuchadnesar: Cymerwyd y frenhiniaeth oddi arnat.

³¹While the word was in the king's mouth, there fell a voice from the heavens: King Nebuchadnezzar, to thee it is spoken: The kingdom is departed from thee;

³² Cei dy yrru o u373?ydd pobl, a bydd dy gartref gyda'r anifeiliaid. Byddi'n bwyta gwellt fel ych, a bydd saith cyfnod yn mynd heibio, nes iti wybod mai'r Goruchaf sy'n rheoli teyrnasoedd pobl ac yn eu rhoi i'r sawl a fyn."

³²and they shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field; they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and seven times shall pass over thee, until thou know that the Most High ruleth over the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will.

³³ Digwyddodd hyn ar unwaith i Nebuchadnesar. Cafodd ei yrru o u373?ydd pobl; yr oedd yn bwyta gwellt fel ych, ei gorff yn wlyb gan wlith y nefoedd, ei wallt yn hir fel plu eryr, a'i ewinedd yn hir fel crafangau aderyn.

³³The same hour was the word fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar; and he was driven from men, and ate grass as oxen; and his body was bathed with the dew of heaven, till his hair grew like eagles' [feathers], and his nails like birds' [claws].

³⁴ "Ymhen amser, codais i, Neb-uchadnesar, fy llygaid i'r nefoedd, ac adferwyd fy synnwyr. Yna bendithiais y Goruchaf, a moli a mawrhau'r un sy'n byw yn dragywydd. Y mae ei arglwyddiaeth yn arglwyddiaeth dragwyddol, a'i frenhiniaeth o genhedlaeth i genhedlaeth.

³⁴And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto the heavens, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the Most High, and I praised and honoured him that liveth for ever, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom is from generation to generation.

³⁵ Nid yw neb o drigolion y ddaear yn cyfrif dim; y mae'n gwneud fel y mynno � llu'r nefoedd ac � thrigolion y ddaear. Ni fedr neb ei atal, a gofyn iddo, 'Beth wyt yn ei wneud?'

³⁵And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing; and he doeth according to his will in the army of the heavens, and among the inhabitants of the earth; and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou?

³⁶ Y pryd hwnnw adferwyd fy synnwyr a dychwelodd fy mawrhydi a'm clod, er gogoniant fy mrenhiniaeth. Daeth fy nghynghorwyr a'm tywysogion ataf. Cadarnhawyd fi yn fy nheyrnas, a rhoddwyd llawer mwy o rym i mi.

³⁶At the same time mine understanding returned unto me; and for the glory of my kingdom, my majesty and brightness returned unto me; and my counsellors and my nobles sought me; and I was established in my kingdom, and excellent greatness was added unto me.

³⁷ Ac yn awr yr wyf fi, Nebuchadnesar, yn moli, yn mawrhau ac yn clodfori Brenin y Nefoedd, sydd �'i weithredoedd yn gywir a'i ffyrdd yn gyfiawn, ac yn gallu darostwng y balch."

³⁷Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honour the King of the heavens, all whose works are truth, and his paths judgment: and those that walk in pride he is able to abase.
