¹ Ar y trydydd dydd ar ddeg o'r deuddegfed mis, sef Adar, daeth yr amser i gyflawni gair a gorchymyn y brenin. Trowyd y diwrnod, y gobeithiai gelynion yr Iddewon eu trechu arno, yn ddiwrnod i'r Iddewon drechu eu caseion.

¹And in the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar, on the thirteenth day thereof, when the king's commandment and his decree drew near to be put in execution, in the day that the enemies of the Jews hoped to have power over them (but it was turned to the contrary, that the Jews had power over them that hated them),

² Unodd yr Iddewon yn eu dinasoedd ym mhob un o daleithiau'r Brenin Ahasferus i ymosod ar y rhai oedd yn ceisio'u niweidio. Ni wrthwynebodd neb hwy, oherwydd yr oedd ar yr holl bobl eu hofn.

²the Jews gathered themselves together in their cities throughout the provinces of king Ahasuerus, to lay hand on such as sought their hurt. And no man could withstand them; for the fear of them had fallen upon all the peoples.

³ Cawsant eu cynorthwyo gan dywysogion y taleithiau, y pendefigion, y rheolwyr a gweision y brenin, am fod arnynt ofn Mordecai.

³And all the princes of the provinces, and the satraps, and the governors and officers of the king, helped the Jews; for the fear of Mordecai had fallen upon them.

⁴ Oherwydd yr oedd Mordecai yn flaenllaw yn y palas ac yn adnabyddus drwy'r holl daleithiau, ac yr oedd yn ennill mwy a mwy o rym.

⁴For Mordecai was great in the king's house, and his fame went forth throughout the provinces; for the man Mordecai became continually greater.

⁵ Trawodd yr Iddewon eu holl elynion �'r cleddyf, a'u lladd a'u difa; a gwnaethant fel y mynnent �'u caseion.

⁵And the Jews smote all their enemies with the stroke of the sword and slaughter and destruction, and did what they would to those that hated them.

⁶ Yn Susan y brifddinas yr oeddent wedi llofruddio a lladd pum cant o bobl,

⁶And in Shushan the fortress the Jews slew and destroyed five hundred men.

⁷ yn cynnwys Parsandatha, Dalffon, Aspatha,

⁷And Parshandatha, and Dalphon, and Aspatha,

⁸ Poratha, Adaleia, Aridatha,

⁸and Poratha, and Adalia, and Aridatha,

⁹ Parmasta, Arisai, Aridai, Bajesatha,

⁹and Parmashta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Vajezatha,

¹⁰ sef deg mab Haman fab Hammedatha, gelyn yr Iddewon. Lladdodd yr Iddewon y rhain, ond heb gyffwrdd �'r ysbail.

¹⁰the ten sons of Haman the son of Hammedatha, the oppressor of the Jews, they slew; but they laid not their hands on the prey.

¹¹ Y diwrnod hwnnw, pan glywodd y brenin faint a laddwyd yn Susan y brifddinas,

¹¹On that day the number of those that were slain in Shushan the fortress was brought before the king.

¹² dywedodd wrth y Frenhines Esther, "Y mae'r Iddewon wedi lladd pum cant o bobl a deg mab Haman yn Susan y brifddinas. Beth a wnaethant yn y gweddill o daleithiau'r brenin? Yn awr, beth a fynni? Fe'i cei. Os oes gennyt unrhyw ddymuniad arall, fe'i gwneir."

¹²And the king said to Esther the queen, The Jews have slain and destroyed five hundred men in Shushan the fortress, and the ten sons of Haman; what have they done in the rest of the king's provinces? And what is thy petition? and it shall be granted thee; and what is thy request further? and it shall be done.

¹³ Meddai Esther, "Os gw�l y brenin yn dda, rhodder caniat�d i'r Iddewon sydd yn Susan i weithredu yfory hefyd yn �l y wu375?s a gyhoeddir heddiw, a chroger deg mab Haman ar y crocbren."

¹³And Esther said, If it please the king, let it be granted to the Jews that are in Shushan to do to-morrow also according to this day's decree, and let Haman's ten sons be hanged upon the gallows.

¹⁴ Gorchmynnodd y brenin i hyn gael ei wneud, a chyhoeddwyd y wu375?s yn Susan, a chrogwyd deg mab Haman.

¹⁴And the king commanded it so to be done: and the decree was given at Shushan; and they hanged Haman's ten sons.

¹⁵ Ar y pedwerydd dydd ar ddeg o fis Adar ymunodd yr Iddewon oedd yn Susan i ladd tri chant o bobl yn Susan, ond heb gyffwrdd �'r ysbail.

¹⁵And the Jews that were in Shushan gathered themselves together on the fourteenth day also of the month Adar, and slew three hundred men at Shushan; but they laid not their hand on the prey.

¹⁶ Yr oedd yr Iddewon yn nhaleithiau'r brenin wedi ymuno i'w hamddiffyn eu hunain, er mwyn cael llonydd gan eu gelynion; yr oeddent wedi lladd saith deg a phump o filoedd o'u caseion, ond heb gyffwrdd �'r ysbail.

¹⁶And the other Jews that were in the king's provinces gathered themselves together, and stood for their life, and had rest from their enemies; and they slew of them that hated them seventy-five thousand (but they laid not their hand on the prey),

¹⁷ Digwyddodd hyn ar y trydydd dydd ar ddeg o fis Adar; peidiasant ar y pedwerydd dydd ar ddeg, a gwnaethant hwnnw'n ddydd o wledd a llawenydd.

¹⁷on the thirteenth day of the month Adar; and on the fourteenth of the same they rested, and made it a day of feasting and joy.

¹⁸ Yr oedd Iddewon Susan wedi ymgasglu ar y trydydd dydd ar ddeg o'r mis, a'r pedwerydd ar ddeg, ac wedi peidio ar y pymthegfed dydd; felly cadwasant hwy hwnnw yn ddydd o wledd a llawenydd.

¹⁸But the Jews that were at Shushan gathered themselves together on the thirteenth [day] thereof, and on the fourteenth thereof; and on the fifteenth of the same they rested, and made it a day of feasting and joy.

¹⁹ Dyna pam y mae'r Iddewon sy'n byw mewn pentrefi yn y wlad yn cadw'r pedwerydd ar ddeg o fis Adar yn ddydd o wledd a llawenydd a gu373?yl, ac yn anfon anrhegion i'w gilydd.

¹⁹Therefore the Jews of the villages that dwell in the country towns make the fourteenth of the month Adar a day of joy and feasting, and a good day, and on which they send portions one to another.

²⁰ Rhoddodd Mordecai y pethau hyn ar gof a chadw, ac anfonodd lythyrau at yr holl Iddewon ym mhob un o daleithiau'r Brenin Ahasferus, ymhell ac agos,

²⁰And Mordecai wrote these things, and sent letters to all the Jews near and far that were in all the provinces of king Ahasuerus,

²¹ yn galw arnynt i gadw'r pedwerydd ar ddeg a'r pymthegfed o fis Adar bob blwyddyn

²¹to establish [this] among them, that they should keep the fourteenth day of the month Adar, and the fifteenth day of the same, yearly,

²² fel y dyddiau pan gafodd yr Iddewon lonydd gan eu gelynion, a'r mis pan drowyd eu tristwch yn llawenydd a'u galar yn u373?yl. Yr oeddent i'w cadw'n ddyddiau o wledd a llawenydd, a phawb yn anfon anrhegion i'w gilydd ac i'r tlodion.

²²as the days on which the Jews rested from their enemies, and the month that was turned to them from sorrow to joy, and from mourning into a good day; that they should make them days of feasting and joy, and of sending portions one to another, and gifts to the poor.

²³ Cytunodd yr Iddewon i wneud fel yr oeddent wedi dechrau, ac yn �l yr hyn a ysgrifennodd Mordecai atynt.

²³And the Jews undertook to do as they had begun, and as Mordecai had written to them.

²⁴ Gwnaethant hyn am fod Haman fab Hammedatha yr Agagiad, gelyn yr Iddewon, wedi cynllwyn i'w dinistrio, ac wedi bwrw Pwr, hynny yw coelbren, i'w difa a'u dinistrio.

²⁴For Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, the oppressor of all the Jews, had devised against the Jews to destroy them, and had cast Pur, that is, the lot, to consume them and to destroy them;

²⁵ Ond pan ddaeth hyn i sylw'r brenin, gorchmynnodd mewn llythyr fod cynllwyn drwg Haman yn erbyn yr Iddewon i ddychwelyd ar ei ben ef ei hun; felly crogwyd ef a'i feibion ar grocbren.

²⁵and when [Esther] came before the king, he commanded by letters that his wicked device, which he had devised against the Jews, should return upon his own head; and they hanged him and his sons on the gallows.

²⁶ Am hynny galwyd y dyddiau hyn yn Pwrim, o'r enw Pwr. Oherwydd yr holl eiriau a ysgrifennwyd yn y llythyr hwn, ac oherwydd yr hyn a welsant ac a glywsant ynglu375?n �'r mater,

²⁶Therefore they called these days Purim after the name of Pur. Therefore, according to all the words of this letter, and for what they had seen concerning this matter and what had happened to them,

²⁷ addawodd ac ymrwymodd yr Iddewon, ar eu rhan eu hunain, a'u plant a phawb oedd yn ymuno � hwy, i gadw'r ddau ddiwrnod hyn bob blwyddyn mewn modd arbennig ac ar amser penodedig.

²⁷the Jews ordained and took upon them, and upon their seed, and upon all such as joined themselves to them, so that it should not fail, that they would observe these two days according to their writing and according to their fixed time, every year;

²⁸ Addawsant gofio a chadw'r dyddiau hynny ym mhob cenhedlaeth, teulu, talaith a dinas, fel na fyddai'r Iddewon yn anwybyddu dyddiau Pwrim, na'u plant yn anghofio amdanynt.

²⁸and that these days should be remembered and observed throughout every generation, in every family, every province, and every city, and that these days of Purim should not fail from among the Jews, nor the memorial of them cease from among their seed.

²⁹ Yna ysgrifennodd y Frenhines Esther ferch Abihail, a Mordecai'r Iddew, ag awdurdod llawn i gadarnhau'r ail lythyr hwn ynglu375?n � Pwrim.

²⁹And queen Esther the daughter of Abihail, and Mordecai the Jew, wrote with all authority to confirm this second letter of Purim.

³⁰ Anfonwyd llythyrau i'r holl Iddewon yn y cant dau ddeg a saith o daleithiau teyrnas Ahasferus, yn dymuno iddynt heddwch a diogelwch,

³⁰And he sent letters to all the Jews, to the hundred and twenty-seven provinces of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, words of peace and truth,

³¹ ac yn eu cymell i gadw dyddiau Pwrim yn eu hamser priodol, yn �l gorchymyn Mordecai'r Iddew a'r Frenhines Esther, ac fel yr oeddent hwy wedi ymrwymo ar eu rhan eu hunain a'u plant ynglu375?n ag amserau ympryd a galar.

³¹to confirm these days of Purim in their fixed times, according as Mordecai the Jew and queen Esther had enjoined them, and as they had decreed for themselves and for their seed, as to the matters of the fastings and their cry.

³² Cadarnhaodd gorchymyn Esther y rheolau hyn ar gyfer Pwrim, ac fe'u rhoddwyd ar gof a chadw.

³²And the decree of Esther confirmed these matters of Purim; and it was written in the book.
