¹ Y diwrnod hwnnw rhoddodd y Brenin Ahasferus du375? Haman, gelyn yr Iddewon, i'r Frenhines Esther; a daeth Mordecai i u373?ydd y brenin, oherwydd yr oedd Esther wedi dweud wrtho pa berthynas oedd ef iddi.

¹On that day did king Ahasuerus give the house of Haman the Jews' oppressor to Esther the queen. And Mordecai came before the king; for Esther had told what he was to her.

² Yna tynnodd y brenin ei fodrwy, a gymerodd yn �l oddi ar Haman, a'i rhoi i Mordecai. Rhoddodd Esther du375? Haman yng ngofal Mordecai.

²And the king took off his ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it to Mordecai. And Esther set Mordecai over the house of Haman.

³ Unwaith eto apeliodd Esther at y brenin a syrthio wrth ei draed. Wylodd ac erfyn arno rwystro'r drygioni a gynllwynodd Haman yr Agagiad yn erbyn yr Iddewon.

³And Esther spoke yet again before the king, and fell down at his feet, and besought him with tears to put away the mischief of Haman the Agagite, and his device which he had devised against the Jews.

⁴ Estynnodd y brenin ei deyrnwialen aur at Esther, a chododd hithau a sefyll o'i flaen a dweud,

⁴And the king held out the golden sceptre toward Esther. And Esther arose and stood before the king,

⁵ "Os gw�l y brenin yn dda, ac os cefais ffafr ganddo, a bod y mater yn dderbyniol ganddo, a minnau yn ei foddhau, anfoned wu375?s i alw'n �l y llythyrau a ysgrifennodd Haman fab Hammedatha yr Agagiad gyda'r bwriad o ddifa'r Iddewon sydd ym mhob un o daleithiau'r brenin.

⁵and said, If it please the king and if I have found grace before him, and the thing seem right to the king, and I be pleasing in his sight, let it be written to reverse the letters devised by Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, which he wrote to destroy the Jews that are in all the king's provinces.

⁶ Sut y gallaf edrych ar y trybini sy'n dod ar fy mhobl? Sut y gallaf oddef gweld dinistr fy nghenedl?"

⁶For how shall I endure to see the evil that shall befall my people? and how shall I endure to see the destruction of my kindred?

⁷ Yna dywedodd y Brenin Ahasferus wrth y Frenhines Esther a Mordecai'r Iddew, "Yr wyf wedi rhoi tu375? Haman i Esther, a chrogwyd yntau ar grocbren am iddo ymosod ar yr Iddewon.

⁷And king Ahasuerus said to queen Esther and to Mordecai the Jew, Behold, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and him they have hanged upon the gallows, because he stretched forth his hand against the Jews.

⁸ Yn awr ysgrifennwch chwi fel y mynnoch ynglu375?n �'r Iddewon yn fy enw i, a selio'r ddogfen �'r s�l frenhinol, oherwydd ni ellir newid gwu375?s a ysgrifennwyd yn enw'r brenin ac a seliwyd �'r s�l frenhinol."

⁸Write ye then for the Jews as seems good to you, in the king's name, and seal [it] with the king's ring. For a writing that is written in the king's name, and sealed with the king's ring, cannot be reversed.

⁹ Yna, ar y trydydd dydd ar hugain o'r trydydd mis, sef Sifan, galwyd ynghyd ysgrifenyddion y brenin. Ysgrifennwyd, yn union fel y gorchmynnodd Mordecai, at yr Iddewon, at bendefigion, rheolwyr a thywysogion y taleithiau o India i Ethiopia, cant dau ddeg a saith o daleithiau, pob talaith yn ei hysgrifen ei hun a phob cenedl yn ei hiaith ei hun, ac at yr Iddewon yn eu hysgrifen a'u hiaith hwythau.

⁹Then were the king's scribes called at that time, in the third month, that is, the month Sivan, on the three and twentieth [day] thereof; and it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded, to the Jews, and to the satraps, and the governors, and the princes of the provinces which are from India even to Ethiopia, a hundred and twenty-seven provinces, to every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people according to their language, and to the Jews according to their writing and according to their language.

¹⁰ Ysgrifennwyd y wu375?s yn enw'r Brenin Ahasferus, a'i selio �'r s�l frenhinol. Anfonwyd llythyrau gyda negeswyr yn marchogaeth ar feirch cyflym wedi eu magu yn stablau'r brenin.

¹⁰And he wrote in the name of king Ahasuerus, and sealed [it] with the king's ring, and sent letters by couriers on horseback riding on coursers, horses of blood reared in the breeding studs:

¹¹ Ynddynt rhoddodd y brenin hawl i'r Iddewon oedd ym mhob dinas i ymgasglu a'u hamddiffyn eu hunain, ac i ddifa, lladd a dinistrio byddin unrhyw genedl neu dalaith a ymosodai arnynt, a'u plant a'u gwragedd, ac ysbeilio'u heiddo.

¹¹[stating] that the king granted the Jews that were in every city to gather themselves together, and to stand for their life, to destroy, to slay, and to cause to perish, all the power of the people and province that might assault them, [their] little ones and women, and to [take] the spoil of them for a prey,

¹² Yr oeddent i wneud hyn trwy holl daleithiau'r Brenin Ahasferus ar ddiwrnod penodedig, y trydydd ar ddeg o'r deuddegfed mis, sef Adar.

¹²upon one day in all the provinces of king Ahasuerus, upon the thirteenth of the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar.

¹³ Yr oedd copi o'r wu375?s i'w anfon yn gyfraith i bob talaith, a'i ddangos i'r holl bobloedd, fel y byddai'r Iddewon yn barod y diwrnod hwnnw i ddial ar eu gelynion.

¹³That the decree might be given in every province, a copy of the writing was published to all the peoples, and that the Jews should be ready against that day to avenge themselves on their enemies.

¹⁴ Felly aeth y negeswyr allan yn ddiymdroi, yn marchogaeth ar feirch cyflym y brenin; yr oeddent yn mynd ar frys ar orchymyn y brenin. Cyhoeddwyd y wu375?s hefyd yn Susan y brifddinas.

¹⁴The couriers mounted on coursers [and] horses of blood went out, being hastened and pressed on by the king's commandment. And the decree was given at Shushan the fortress.

¹⁵ Yna aeth Mordecai allan o u373?ydd y brenin mewn gwisg frenhinol o las a gwyn, a chyda choron fawr o aur, a mantell o liain main a phorffor; ac yr oedd dinas Susan yn orfoleddus.

¹⁵And Mordecai went out from the presence of the king in royal apparel of blue and white, and with a great crown of gold, and with a mantle of byssus and purple; and the city of Shushan shouted and was glad.

¹⁶ Daeth goleuni, llawenydd, hapusrwydd ac anrhydedd i ran yr Iddewon.

¹⁶The Jews had light, and joy, and gladness, and honour.

¹⁷ Ym mhob talaith a dinas lle daeth gair a gorchymyn y brenin, yr oedd yr Iddewon yn gwledda ac yn cadw gu373?yl yn llawen a hapus. Ac yr oedd llawer o bobl y wlad yn honni mai Iddewon oeddent, am fod arnynt ofn yr Iddewon.

¹⁷And in every province, and in every city, wherever the king's commandment and his decree came, the Jews had joy and gladness, a feast and a good day. And many among the peoples of the land became Jews; for the fear of the Jews had fallen upon them.
