¹ Gwnaeth y Brenin Belsassar wledd fawr i fil o'i dywysogion, ac yfodd win gyda hwy.

¹Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his nobles, and drank wine before the thousand.

² Wedi cael blas y gwin, gorchmynnodd Belsassar ddwyn y llestri aur ac arian a ladrataodd ei dad Nebuchadnesar o'r deml yn Jerwsalem, er mwyn i'r brenin a'i dywysogion a'i wragedd a'i ordderchwragedd yfed ohonynt.

²Belshazzar, while he tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels that Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem; that the king and his nobles, his wives and his concubines, might drink in them.

³ Felly dygwyd y llestri aur a ladratawyd o'r deml yn Jerwsalem, ac yfodd y brenin a'i dywysogion a'i wragedd a'i ordderchwragedd ohonynt.

³Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken out of the temple of the house of God which was at Jerusalem; and the king and his nobles, his wives and his concubines, drank in them.

⁴ Wrth yfed y gwin, yr oeddent yn moliannu duwiau o aur ac arian, o bres a haearn, o bren a charreg.

⁴They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone.

⁵ Yn sydyn, ymddangosodd bysedd llaw ddynol yn ysgrifennu ar blastr y pared gyferbyn �'r canhwyllbren yn llys y brenin, a gwelai'r brenin y llaw ddynol yn ysgrifennu.

⁵In the same hour came forth fingers of a man's hand, and wrote over against the candlestick upon the plaster of the wall of the king's palace: and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote.

⁶ Yna gwelwodd y brenin mewn dychryn, ac aeth ei gymalau'n llipa a'i liniau'n grynedig.

⁶Then the king's countenance was changed, and his thoughts troubled him, and the joints of his loins were loosed, and his knees smote one against another.

⁷ Galwodd y brenin am y swynwyr a'r Caldeaid a'r s�r-ddewiniaid, ac meddai wrth ddoethion Babilon, "Os medr unrhyw un ddarllen yr ysgrifen hon a'i dehongli i mi, caiff hwnnw wisg borffor, a chadwyn aur am ei wddf, a llywodraethu'n drydydd yn y deyrnas."

⁷The king cried aloud to bring in the magicians, the Chaldeans, and the astrologers. The king spoke and said to the wise men of Babylon, Whosoever shall read this writing, and shew me the interpretation thereof, shall be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.

⁸ Yna daeth doethion y brenin ato, ond ni fedrent ddarllen yr ysgrifen na'i dehongli i'r brenin.

⁸Then came in all the king's wise men, but they could not read the writing, nor make known to the king the interpretation.

⁹ Felly cynhyrfodd y Brenin Belsassar yn enbyd, a gwelwi, ac yr oedd ei dywysogion yn yr un dryswch.

⁹Then was king Belshazzar greatly troubled, and his countenance was changed in him, and his nobles were confounded.

¹⁰ Wrth glywed su373?n y brenin a'i dywysogion, daeth y frenhines i'r ystafell fwyta a dweud, "O frenin, bydd fyw byth! Paid ag edrych mor gynhyrfus a gwelw.

¹⁰-- The queen, by reason of the words of the king and his nobles, came into the banquet-house. The queen spoke and said, O king, live for ever! let not thy thoughts trouble thee, neither let thy countenance be changed.

¹¹ Y mae gu373?r yn dy deyrnas sy'n llawn o ysbryd y duwiau sanctaidd, ac yn amser dy dad dangosodd oleuni a deall, a doethineb fel doethineb y duwiau; a gwnaed ef gan dy dad, y Brenin Nebuchadnesar, yn ben ar y dewiniaid a'r swynwyr a'r Caldeaid a'r s�r-ddewiniaid.

¹¹There is a man in thy kingdom in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of thy father, light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods was found in him; and the king Nebuchadnezzar thy father, [even] the king thy father, made him master of the scribes, magicians, Chaldeans, [and] astrologers;

¹² Gan fod yn Daniel, a alwodd y brenin yn Beltesassar, ysbryd ardderchog, a deall a dirnadaeth, a'r gallu i ddehongli breuddwydion ac esbonio dirgelion a datrys problemau, anfon yn awr am Daniel; gall ef roi dehongliad."

¹²forasmuch as an excellent spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, interpreting of dreams, and shewing of hard sentences, and solving of problems, were found in the same Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar. Now let Daniel be called, and he will shew the interpretation.

¹³ Yna daethpwyd � Daniel at y brenin, a gofynnodd y brenin iddo, "Ai ti yw Daniel, un o'r caethgludion a ddug fy nhad, y brenin, o Jwda?

¹³Then was Daniel brought in before the king. The king spoke and said unto Daniel, Art thou that Daniel, of the children of the captivity of Judah, whom the king my father brought out of Judah?

¹⁴ Rwy'n clywed fod ysbryd y duwiau ynot a'th fod yn llawn o oleuni a deall a doethineb ragorol.

¹⁴And I have heard of thee, that the spirit of the gods is in thee, and [that] light and understanding and excellent wisdom is found in thee.

¹⁵ Er i'r doethion a'r swynwyr ddod yma i ddarllen yr ysgrifen hon a'i dehongli i mi, nid ydynt yn medru rhoi dehongliad ohoni.

¹⁵And now the wise men, the magicians, have been brought in before me, that they should read this writing, and make known unto me the interpretation thereof; but they could not shew the interpretation of the thing.

¹⁶ Ond rwy'n clywed dy fod ti'n gallu rhoi deongliadau a datrys problemau. Yn awr os medri ddarllen yr ysgrifen a'i dehongli i mi, cei wisg borffor, a chadwyn aur am dy wddf, a llywodraethu'n drydydd yn y deyrnas."

¹⁶But I have heard of thee, that thou canst give interpretations, and solve problems. Now if thou canst read the writing, and make known to me the interpretation thereof, thou shalt be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about thy neck, and shalt be the third ruler in the kingdom.

¹⁷ Yna atebodd Daniel y brenin, "Cei gadw d'anrhegion, a rhoi dy wobrwyon i eraill, ond fe ddarllenaf yr ysgrifen a'i dehongli i'r brenin.

¹⁷Then Daniel answered and said before the king, Let thy gifts be to thyself, and give thy rewards to another; yet will I read the writing to the king, and make known to him the interpretation.

¹⁸ Rhoes y Duw Goruchaf frenhiniaeth a mawredd a gogoniant ac urddas i'th dad Nebuchadnesar.

¹⁸O thou king, the Most High God gave Nebuchadnezzar thy father the kingdom, and greatness, and glory, and majesty;

¹⁹ Ac oherwydd y mawredd a roed iddo, yr oedd yr holl bobloedd, cenhedloedd ac ieithoedd yn crynu mewn ofn o'i flaen. Gallai ladd neu gadw'n fyw, dyrchafu neu ddarostwng y neb a fynnai.

¹⁹and for the greatness that he gave him, all peoples, nations, and languages, trembled and feared before him: whom he would he slew, and whom he would he kept alive; and whom he would he exalted, and whom he would he humbled.

²⁰ Ond pan ymffrostiodd a mynd yn falch, fe'i diorseddwyd a chymerwyd ei ogoniant oddi arno.

²⁰But when his heart was lifted up, and his spirit hardened unto presumption, he was deposed from the throne of his kingdom, and they took his glory from him;

²¹ Gyrrwyd ef o u373?ydd pobl, rhoddwyd iddo galon anifail, ac yr oedd ei gartref gyda'r asynnod gwylltion. Yr oedd yn bwyta gwellt fel ych, ac yr oedd ei gorff yn wlyb gan wlith y nefoedd, nes iddo wybod mai'r Duw Goruchaf sy'n rheoli teyrnasoedd pobl ac yn eu rhoi i'r sawl a fyn.

²¹and he was driven from the sons of men, and his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild asses; they fed him with grass like oxen, and his body was bathed with the dew of heaven; till he knew that the Most High God ruleth over the kingdom of men, and that he appointeth over it whomsoever he will.

²² Ond amdanat ti, ei fab Belsassar, er iti wybod hyn oll, ni ddarostyngaist dy hun.

²²And thou, Belshazzar, his son, hast not humbled thy heart, although thou knewest all this;

²³ Yr wyt wedi herio Arglwydd y Nefoedd trwy ddod � llestri ei du375? ef o'th flaen, a thithau a'th dywysogion a'th wragedd a'th ordderchwragedd yn yfed gwin ohonynt. Yr wyt wedi moliannu duwiau o arian ac aur, o bres a haearn, o bren a charreg, nad ydynt yn clywed dim, nac yn gweld nac yn gwybod; ac nid wyt wedi mawrhau'r Duw y mae d'einioes a'th ffyrdd yn ei law.

²³but hast lifted up thyself against the Lord of the heavens; and they have brought the vessels of his house before thee, and thou and thy nobles, thy wives and thy concubines, have drunk wine in them; and thou hast praised the gods of silver and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know; and the God in whose hand thy breath is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified:

²⁴ Dyna pam yr anfonwyd y llaw i ysgrifennu'r geiriau hyn.

²⁴then from before him was sent the part of the hand, and this writing hath been written.

²⁵ Fel hyn y mae'r ysgrifen yn darllen: 'Mene, Mene, Tecel, Wparsin.'

²⁵And this is the writing that is written: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN.

²⁶ A dyma'r dehongliad. 'Mene': rhifodd Duw flynyddoedd dy deyrnasiad, a daeth ag ef i ben.

²⁶This is the interpretation of the thing: MENE, God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it;

²⁷ 'Tecel': pwyswyd di yn y glorian, a'th gael yn brin.

²⁷TEKEL, Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting;

²⁸ 'Peres': rhannwyd dy deyrnas, a'i rhoi i'r Mediaid a'r Persiaid."

²⁸PERES, Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.

²⁹ Yna, ar orchymyn Belsassar, cafodd Daniel wisg borffor, a chadwyn o aur am ei wddf, a'i benodi yn drydydd llywodraethwr yn y deyrnas.

²⁹Then Belshazzar commanded, and they clothed Daniel with purple, and [put] a chain of gold about his neck, and made proclamation concerning him that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom.

³⁰ A'r noson honno lladdwyd Belsassar, brenin y Caldeaid.

³⁰In that night was Belshazzar the king of the Chaldeans slain.

³¹ A derbyniodd Dareius y Mediad y deyrnas, yn u373?r dwy a thrigain oed.

³¹And Darius the Mede received the kingdom, [being] about sixty-two years old.
