¹ Dywedodd yr ARGLWYDD wrth Moses yng ngwastadedd Moab, gyferbyn � Jericho ger yr Iorddonen,

¹And Jehovah spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan of Jericho, saying,

² "Gorchymyn i bobl Israel roi o'r etifeddiaeth a g�nt ddinasoedd i'r Lefiaid i fyw ynddynt, a phorfeydd o amgylch y dinasoedd.

²Command the children of Israel, that of the inheritance of their possession they give unto the Levites cities to dwell in; and a suburb for the cities round about them shall ye give unto the Levites.

³ Caiff y Lefiaid fyw yn y dinasoedd, a bydd y porfeydd ar gyfer eu gwartheg, eu praidd, a'u holl anifeiliaid.

³And the cities shall they have to dwell in, and their suburbs shall be for their cattle, and for their goods, and for all their beasts.

⁴ Bydd porfeydd y dinasoedd a roddwch i'r Lefiaid yn ymestyn o fur y ddinas tuag allan am fil o gufyddau oddi amgylch.

⁴And the suburbs of the cities that ye shall give unto the Levites shall be from the walls of the city outward, a thousand cubits round about.

⁵ Yr ydych i fesur, o'r tu allan i'r ddinas, ddwy fil o gufyddau ar yr ochr ddwyreiniol, dwy fil ar yr ochr ddeheuol, dwy fil ar yr ochr orllewinol, a dwy fil ar yr ochr ogleddol, a'r ddinas yn y canol; dyma borfeydd y dinasoedd fydd yn eiddo iddynt.

⁵And ye shall measure, without the city, the east side two thousand cubits, and the south side two thousand cubits, and the west side two thousand cubits, and the north side two thousand cubits, and the city shall be in the midst: they shall have this as suburbs of the cities.

⁶ "O'r dinasoedd a rowch i'r Lefiaid, bydd chwech yn ddinasoedd noddfa, lle caiff y lleiddiaid ffoi; yn ychwanegol at y rhain, rhowch iddynt bedwar deg a dwy o ddinasoedd.

⁶And [among] the cities that ye shall give unto the Levites [shall be] the six cities of refuge, which ye shall appoint for the manslayer, that he may flee thither, -- and besides them ye shall give forty-two cities:

⁷ Felly byddwch yn rhoi i'r Lefiaid bedwar deg ac wyth o ddinasoedd i gyd, gyda'u porfeydd.

⁷all the cities that ye shall give to the Levites shall be forty-eight cities, they and their suburbs.

⁸ o'r dinasoedd sy'n feddiant i bobl Israel cymerwch lawer oddi wrth y llwythau mawr, ond llai oddi wrth y llwythau bychain; y mae pob llwyth i roi dinasoedd i'r Lefiaid yn �l maint yr etifeddiaeth a gafodd."

⁸And the cities which ye shall give shall be of the possession of the children of Israel: from them that have much ye shall take much, and from them that have little ye shall take little; each one according to his inheritance which he will inherit shall give of his cities to the Levites.

⁹ Dywedodd yr ARGLWYDD wrth Moses,

⁹And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

¹⁰ "Dywed wrth bobl Israel, 'Pan fyddwch wedi mynd dros yr Iorddonen i mewn i wlad Canaan,

¹⁰Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye pass over the Jordan into the land of Canaan,

¹¹ yr ydych i neilltuo i chwi eich hunain ddinasoedd i fod yn ddinasoedd noddfa, er mwyn i'r lleiddiad, a laddodd rywun yn anfwriadol, gael ffoi iddynt.

¹¹then ye shall appoint for yourselves cities: cities of refuge shall they be for you; that a manslayer may flee thither, who without intent smiteth a person mortally.

¹² Bydd y dinasoedd yn noddfa rhag y dialydd, fel na chaiff y lleiddiad ei ladd cyn iddo sefyll ei brawf o flaen y cynulliad.

¹²And ye shall have these cities for refuge from the avenger; that the manslayer die not, until he have stood before the assembly in judgment.

¹³ o'r chwe dinas a nodwch yn ddinasoedd noddfa,

¹³And the cities that ye shall give shall be six cities of refuge for you.

¹⁴ bydd tair yr ochr yma i'r Iorddonen, a thair yng ngwlad Canaan.

¹⁴Three cities shall ye give on this side of the Jordan, and three cities shall ye give in the land of Canaan; they shall be cities of refuge.

¹⁵ Bydd y chwe dinas hyn yn noddfa i bobl Israel, ac i'r dieithryn a'r ymwelydd yn eu plith, a chaiff pwy bynnag a laddodd rywun yn anfwriadol ffoi iddynt.

¹⁵For the children of Israel, and for the stranger, and for the sojourner among them shall these six cities be a refuge, that one who smiteth a person mortally without intent may flee thither.

¹⁶ "'Os bydd rhywun yn taro rhywun arall ag offeryn haearn, ac yntau'n marw, y mae'n llofrudd; rhodder y llofrudd i farwolaeth.

¹⁶And if he have smitten him with an instrument of iron, so that he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall certainly be put to death.

¹⁷ Os bydd yn ei daro � charreg yn ei law, a'r garreg yn debyg o ladd, ac yntau'n marw, y mae'n llofrudd; rhodder y llofrudd i farwolaeth.

¹⁷And if he have smitten him with a stone from the hand, wherewith one may die, and he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall certainly be put to death.

¹⁸ Os bydd yn ei daro ag arf pren yn ei law, a'r arf yn debyg o ladd, ac yntau'n marw, y mae'n llofrudd; rhodder y llofrudd i farwolaeth.

¹⁸Or if he have smitten him with an instrument of wood, in the hand, wherewith one may die, and he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall certainly be put to death;

¹⁹ Caiff y sawl sy'n dial gwaed roi'r llofrudd i farwolaeth pan ddaw o hyd iddo.

¹⁹the avenger of blood, he shall put the murderer to death; when he meeteth him, he shall put him to death.

²⁰ Os bydd rhywun yn gwanu rhywun arall mewn casineb, neu'n ymosod arno'n fwriadol, ac yntau'n marw;

²⁰And if he thrust at him out of hatred, or hurl at him intentionally, so that he die,

²¹ neu ynteu'n taro rhywun �'i law mewn atgasedd, ac yntau'n marw, yna rhodder y sawl a'i trawodd i farwolaeth; y mae'n llofrudd, a chaiff y sawl sy'n dial gwaed ei roi i farwolaeth pan ddaw o hyd iddo.

²¹or from enmity smite him with his hand, so that he die, he that smote him shall certainly be put to death; he is a murderer: the avenger of blood shall put the murderer to death, when he meeteth him. --

²² "'Os bydd rhywun yn gwanu rhywun arall yn sydyn, a heb atgasedd, neu os bydd yn taflu rhywbeth ato'n anfwriadol,

²²But if he have thrust at him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon him anything unintentionally,

²³ neu ynteu heb edrych yn ei daro � charreg a fyddai'n debyg o'i ladd, ac yntau'n marw, yna, gan na fu gelyniaeth rhyngddynt a chan na fwriadodd ei niweidio,

²³or [have smitten him] with any stone wherewith one may die, without seeing him, and have cast it upon him so that he die, and he was not his enemy, neither sought his harm:

²⁴ y mae'r cynulliad i farnu rhwng yr ymosodwr a'r dialydd gwaed, yn �l y deddfau hyn;

²⁴then the assembly shall judge between the smiter and the avenger of blood according to these judgments;

²⁵ a bydd y cynulliad yn arbed y lleiddiad rhag y dialydd gwaed ac yn ei roi'n �l yn y ddinas noddfa y ffodd iddi, a chaiff fyw yno nes marw'r archoffeiriad a eneiniwyd �'r olew cysegredig.

²⁵and the assembly shall rescue the manslayer out of the hand of the avenger of blood, and the assembly shall restore him to the city of his refuge, whither he had fled; and he shall abide in it until the death of the high-priest, who was anointed with the holy oil.

²⁶ Ond os �'r lleiddiad rywbryd y tu allan i derfynau'r ddinas noddfa y ffodd iddi,

²⁶But if the manslayer shall in any way come outside the limits of the city of his refuge whither he hath fled,

²⁷ a'r dialydd gwaed yn ei ganfod a'i ladd, ni fydd yn euog o'i waed.

²⁷and the avenger of blood find him outside the limits of his city of refuge, and the avenger of blood kill the manslayer, there shall be no blood-guiltiness upon him;

²⁸ Rhaid i'r lleiddiad aros tu mewn i'w ddinas noddfa nes marw'r archoffeiriad; ond ar �l marw'r archoffeiriad, caiff ddychwelyd i'r tir sy'n feddiant iddo.

²⁸for the manslayer should have remained in the city of his refuge until the death of the high-priest; but after the death of the high-priest he may return into the land of his possession.

²⁹ "'Bydd hyn yn ddeddf ac yn gyfraith i chwi trwy eich cenedlaethau lle bynnag y byddwch yn byw.

²⁹And this shall be unto you a statute of right throughout your generations in all your dwellings.

³⁰ Os bydd rhywun yn lladd rhywun arall, rhodder ef i farwolaeth ar dystiolaeth tystion; ond na rodder neb i farwolaeth ar dystiolaeth un tyst.

³⁰Whoever shall smite a person mortally, at the mouth of witnesses shall the murderer be put to death; but one witness shall not testify against a person to cause him to die.

³¹ Peidiwch � chymryd arian yn iawn am fywyd llofrudd a gafwyd yn euog o ladd; rhodder ef i farwolaeth.

³¹And ye shall take no satisfaction for the life of a murderer, who is guilty of death, but he shall certainly be put to death.

³² Peidiwch � chymryd arian yn iawn gan y sawl a ffodd i'w ddinas noddfa, er mwyn iddo gael dychwelyd i fyw i'w dir ei hun cyn marw'r archoffeiriad.

³²And ye shall take no satisfaction for him that hath fled to the city of his refuge, that he should come again to dwell in the land, until the death of the priest.

³³ Peidiwch � halogi'r wlad yr ydych yn byw ynddi; y mae gwaed yn halogi'r wlad, ac ni ellir gwneud iawn am y wlad y tywalltwyd gwaed ynddi ond trwy waed y sawl a'i tywalltodd.

³³And ye shall not pollute the land wherein ye are; for blood, it polluteth the land; and there can be no atonement made for the land, for the blood that hath been shed therein, but by the blood of him that shed it.

³⁴ Peidiwch � gwneud y wlad yr ydych yn byw ynddi yn aflan, oherwydd yr wyf fi, yr ARGLWYDD, yn preswylio yn ei chanol ac ymysg pobl Israel.'"

³⁴And ye shall not defile the land that ye inhabit, in the midst whereof I dwell; for I am Jehovah who dwell in the midst of the children of Israel.
