¹ Cododd Jerwbbaal, sef Gideon, a'r holl bobl oedd gydag ef yn gynnar a gwersyllu ger ffynnon Harod. Yr oedd gwersyll Midian yn y dyffryn i'r gogledd o fryn More.

¹And Jerubbaal, who is Gideon, arose early, and all the people that were with him, and they encamped beside the spring Harod; and he had the camp of Midian on the north by the hill of Moreh in the valley.

² Dywedodd yr ARGLWYDD wrth Gideon, "Y mae gennyt ormod o bobl gyda thi imi roi Midian yn eu llaw, rhag i Israel ymfalch�o yn f'erbyn a dweud, 'Fy llaw fy hun sydd wedi f'achub.'

²And Jehovah said to Gideon, The people that are with thee are too many for me to give Midian into their hand, lest Israel vaunt themselves against me, saying, Mine own hand hath saved me.

³ Felly, cyhoedda yng nghlyw'r bobl, 'Pwy bynnag sydd mewn ofn a dychryn, aed adref.'" Profodd Gideon hwy, a dychwelodd dwy fil ar hugain o'r bobl, gan adael deng mil ar �l.

³And now proclaim in the ears of the people, saying, Whoever is timid and afraid, let him go back and turn from mount Gilead. And there went back of the people twenty-two thousand; and there remained ten thousand.

⁴ Dywedodd yr ARGLWYDD wrth Gideon, "Y mae gormod o bobl eto. Dos � hwy i lawr at y du373?r, a phrofaf hwy iti yno. Pan ddywedaf wrthyt, 'Y mae hwn i fynd gyda thi', bydd hwnnw'n mynd gyda thi; a phan ddywedaf, 'Nid yw hwn i fynd gyda thi', ni fydd yn mynd."

⁴And Jehovah said to Gideon, Still the people are many; bring them down to the water, and I will try them for thee there, and it shall be, that of whom I shall say unto thee, This shall go with thee, the same shall go with thee; and of whomsoever I shall say unto thee, This shall not go with thee, the same shall not go.

⁵ Aeth Gideon �'r bobl i lawr at y du373?r, a dywedodd yr ARGLWYDD wrtho, "Pob un sy'n llepian y du373?r �'i dafod fel y bydd ci'n llepian, gosod hwnnw ar wah�n i'r rhai sy'n penlinio ac yn yfed trwy ddod �'u llaw at eu genau."

⁵And he brought down the people to the water; and Jehovah said to Gideon, Every one that lappeth of the water with his tongue, as a dog lappeth, him shalt thou set by himself; likewise every one that boweth down on his knees to drink.

⁶ Tri chant oedd nifer y rhai oedd yn llepian, a phawb arall yn penlinio i yfed du373?r.

⁶And the number of them that lapped, with their hand to their mouth, were three hundred men; and all the rest of the people bowed down on their knees to drink water.

⁷ Dywedodd yr ARGLWYDD wrth Gideon, "Trwy'r tri chant sy'n llepian y byddaf yn eich achub, ac yn rhoi Midian yn dy law; caiff pawb arall fynd adref."

⁷And Jehovah said to Gideon, By the three hundred men that lapped will I save you, and give Midian into thy hand; and let all the people go every man to his place.

⁸ Cymerodd Gideon biserau'r bobl a'r utgyrn oedd ganddynt, ac anfon yr Israeliaid i gyd adref, ond cadw'r tri chant. Yr oedd gwersyll Midian islaw iddo yn y dyffryn.

⁸And they took the victuals of the people in their hand, and their trumpets; and all the men of Israel he sent away, every man to his tent, but retained the three hundred men. Now the camp of Midian was beneath him in the valley.

⁹ Y noson honno dywedodd yr ARGLWYDD wrth Gideon, "Cod, dos i lawr i'r gwersyll, oherwydd yr wyf yn ei roi yn dy law.

⁹And it came to pass in that night, that Jehovah said to him, Arise, go down to the camp; for I have given it into thy hand.

¹⁰ Os oes arnat ofn mynd, dos � Pura dy lanc gyda thi at y gwersyll,

¹⁰And if thou fear to go down, go thou with Phurah thy servant down to the camp;

¹¹ a gwrando ar yr hyn y maent yn ei ddweud; yna fe gryfheir dy law wedi iti fod i lawr yn y gwersyll." Felly fe aeth ef a Pura ei lanc at ymyl y milwyr arfog yn y gwersyll.

¹¹and thou shalt hear what they say; and afterwards shall thy hand be strengthened, and thou shalt go down unto the camp. And he went down with Phurah his servant to the outside of the armed men that were in the camp.

¹² Yr oedd y Midianiaid a'r Amaleciaid a'r holl ddwyreinwyr wedi disgyn ar y dyffryn fel haid o locustiaid; yr oedd eu camelod mor ddirifedi � thywod glan y m�r.

¹²And Midian and Amalek and all the children of the east lay along in the valley as locusts for multitude; and their camels were without number, as the sand upon the sea-shore for multitude.

¹³ Pan gyrhaeddodd Gideon, dyna lle'r oedd rhyw ddyn yn adrodd breuddwyd wrth ei gyfaill ac yn dweud, "Dyma'r freuddwyd a gefais. Yr oeddwn yn gweld torth o fara haidd yn rhowlio trwy wersyll Midian, a phan dd�i at babell, yr oedd yn ei tharo a'i thaflu a'i dymchwel nes bod y babell yn disgyn."

¹³And Gideon came, and behold, a man was telling a dream to his fellow; and he said, Behold, I dreamed a dream, and lo, a cake of barley-bread tumbled into the camp of Midian, and came to the tent, and smote it that it fell, and overturned it; and the tent lay along.

¹⁴ Atebodd ei gyfaill, "Nid yw hyn yn ddim amgen na chleddyf Gideon fab Joas yr Israeliad; y mae Duw wedi rhoi Midian a'r holl wersyll yn ei law."

¹⁴And his fellow answered and said, This is nothing else save the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, the man of Israel: God hath given into his hand Midian and all the host.

¹⁵ Pan glywodd Gideon adrodd y freuddwyd a'i dehongli, ymgrymodd i'r llawr; yna dychwelodd at wersyll Israel a dweud, "Codwch, oherwydd y mae'r ARGLWYDD wedi rhoi gwersyll Midian yn eich llaw."

¹⁵And it came to pass when Gideon heard the telling of the dream and its interpretation, that he worshipped. And he returned into the camp of Israel, and said, Arise; for Jehovah hath given into your hand the camp of Midian.

¹⁶ Rhannodd y tri chant yn dair mintai, a rhoi yn eu llaw utgyrn, a phiserau gwag gyda ffaglau o'u mewn. Dywedodd wrthynt, "Edrychwch arnaf fi, a gwnewch yr un fath.

¹⁶And he divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put a trumpet in every man's hand, and empty pitchers, and torches within the pitchers.

¹⁷ Pan ddof fi at gwr y gwersyll, yna gwnewch yr un fath � mi.

¹⁷And he said to them, Look on me, and do likewise; behold, when I come to the extremity of the camp, it shall be that, as I do, so shall ye do.

¹⁸ Pan fyddaf fi a phawb sydd gyda mi yn seinio'r utgorn, seiniwch chwithau eich utgyrn o bob tu i'r gwersyll, a dweud, 'Yr ARGLWYDD a Gideon!'"

¹⁸And when I blow with a trumpet, I and all that are with me, ye also shall blow the trumpets around the whole camp, and shall say, For Jehovah and for Gideon!

¹⁹ Cyrhaeddodd Gideon a'r cant o ddynion oedd gydag ef at gwr y gwersyll ar ddechrau'r wyliadwriaeth ganol, a'r gwylwyr newydd eu gosod. Seiniasant yr utgyrn, a dryllio'r piserau oedd yn eu llaw.

¹⁹And Gideon, and the hundred men that were with him, came to the outside of the camp in the beginning of the middle watch; and they had but newly set the watch; and they blew the trumpets, and broke the pitchers that were in their hands.

²⁰ A dyma'r tair mintai yn seinio'r utgyrn ac yn dryllio'r piserau, gan ddal y ffaglau yn eu llaw chwith a'r utgyrn i'w seinio yn eu llaw dde; ac yr oeddent yn gweiddi, "Cleddyf yr ARGLWYDD a Gideon!"

²⁰And the three companies blew the trumpets, and broke in pieces the pitchers, and held the torches in their left hand, and the trumpets in their right hand for blowing, and cried, The sword of Jehovah and of Gideon!

²¹ Tra oedd pob un yn sefyll yn ei le o gwmpas y gwersyll, rhuthrodd yr holl wersyll o gwmpas gan weiddi a ffoi.

²¹And they stood every man in his place round about the camp; and all the host ran, and cried out, and fled.

²² Tra oedd y tri chant yn seinio'r utgyrn, trodd yr ARGLWYDD gleddyf pob un yn y gwersyll yn erbyn ei gymydog, a ffoesant cyn belled � Beth-sitta yn Serera, ac i gyffiniau Abel-mehola a Tabbath.

²²And the three hundred blew the trumpets, and Jehovah set every man's sword against his fellow, even throughout the camp. And the host fled to Beth-shittah towards Zererah, to the border of Abel-meholah, by Tabbath.

²³ Galwyd ar yr Israeliaid o Nafftali, Aser a Manasse gyfan, a buont yn erlid ar �l y Midianiaid.

²³And the men of Israel were called together out of Naphtali, and out of Asher, and out of all Manasseh, and pursued after Midian.

²⁴ Yr oedd Gideon wedi anfon negeswyr drwy holl ucheldir Effraim a dweud, "Dewch i lawr yn erbyn Midian a chymryd rhydau'r Iorddonen o'u blaen hyd Beth-bara." Casglwyd holl wu375?r Effraim a daliasant rydau'r Iorddonen cyn belled � Beth-bara.

²⁴And Gideon sent messengers throughout mount Ephraim, saying, Come down against Midian, and take before them the waters unto Beth-barah, and the Jordan. And all the men of Ephraim were called together, and took the waters unto Beth-barah, and the Jordan.

²⁵ Daliasant Oreb a Seeb, dau arweinydd Midian, a lladd Oreb wrth graig Oreb, a Seeb wrth winwryf Seeb; yna, wedi iddynt erlid Midian, daethant � phen Oreb a phen Seeb at Gideon y tu hwnt i'r Iorddonen.

²⁵And they took two princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb; and they slew Oreb upon the rock Oreb, and Zeeb they slew at the winepress of Zeeb; and they pursued Midian, and brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon beyond the Jordan.
