1 Aethant ar hyd y ffordd trwy Amffipolis ac Apolonia, a chyrraedd Thesalonica, lle yr oedd synagog gan yr Iddewon.
1Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a Jewish synagogue.
2 Ac yn �l ei arfer aeth Paul i mewn atynt, ac am dri Saboth bu'n ymresymu � hwy ar sail yr Ysgrythurau,
2Paul, as was his custom, went in to them, and for three Sabbath days reasoned with them from the Scriptures,
3 gan esbonio a phrofi fod yn rhaid i'r Meseia ddioddef a chyfodi oddi wrth y meirw. Byddai'n dweud, "Hwn yw'r Meseia � Iesu, yr hwn yr wyf fi'n ei gyhoeddi i chwi."
3explaining and demonstrating that the Christ had to suffer and rise again from the dead, and saying, “This Jesus, whom I proclaim to you, is the Christ.”
4 Cafodd rhai ohonynt eu hargyhoeddi, ac ymuno � Paul a Silas; ac felly hefyd y gwnaeth lliaws mawr o'r Groegiaid oedd yn addoli Duw, ac nid ychydig o'r gwragedd blaenaf.
4Some of them were persuaded, and joined Paul and Silas, of the devout Greeks a great multitude, and not a few of the chief women.
5 Ond cenfigennodd yr Iddewon, ac wedi cael gafael ar rai dihirod o blith segurwyr y sgw�r, a'u casglu'n dorf, dechreusant greu terfysg yn y ddinas. Ymosodasant ar du375? Jason, a cheisio dod � Paul a Silas allan gerbron y dinasyddion.
5But the unpersuaded Jews took along TR reads “And the Jews who were unpersuaded, becoming envious and taking along” instead of “But the unpersuaded Jews took along” some wicked men from the marketplace, and gathering a crowd, set the city in an uproar. Assaulting the house of Jason, they sought to bring them out to the people.
6 Ond wedi methu dod o hyd iddynt hwy, llusgasant Jason a rhai credinwyr o flaen llywodraethwyr y ddinas, gan weiddi, "Y mae aflonyddwyr yr Ymerodraeth wedi dod yma hefyd,
6When they didn’t find them, they dragged Jason and certain brothers The word for “brothers” here and where the context allows may be also correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.” before the rulers of the city, crying, “These who have turned the world upside down have come here also,
7 ac y mae Jason wedi rhoi croeso iddynt; y mae'r bobl hyn i gyd yn troseddu yn erbyn ordeiniadau Cesar trwy ddweud fod brenin arall, sef Iesu."
7whom Jason has received. These all act contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus!”
8 Cyffrowyd y dyrfa a'r llywodraethwyr pan glywsant hyn,
8The multitude and the rulers of the city were troubled when they heard these things.
9 ond ar �l derbyn gwarant gan Jason a'r lleill, gollyngasant hwy'n rhydd.
9When they had taken security from Jason and the rest, they let them go.
10 Cyn gynted ag iddi nosi, anfonodd y credinwyr Paul a Silas i Berea, ac wedi iddynt gyrraedd aethant i synagog yr Iddewon.
10The brothers immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Beroea. When they arrived, they went into the Jewish synagogue.
11 Yr oedd y rhain yn fwy eangfrydig na'r rhai yn Thesalonica, gan iddynt dderbyn y gair � phob eiddgarwch, gan chwilio'r Ysgrythurau beunydd i weld a oedd pethau fel yr oeddent hwy yn dweud.
11Now these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of the mind, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so.
12 Gan hynny, credodd llawer ohonynt, ac nid ychydig o'r Groegiaid, yn wragedd bonheddig ac yn wu375?r.
12Many of them therefore believed; also of the prominent Greek women, and not a few men.
13 Ond pan ddaeth Iddewon Thesalonica i wybod fod gair Duw wedi ei gyhoeddi gan Paul yn Berea hefyd, daethant i godi terfysg a chythryblu'r tyrfaoedd yno hefyd.
13But when the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that the word of God was proclaimed by Paul at Beroea also, they came there likewise, agitating the multitudes.
14 Yna anfonodd y credinwyr Paul ymaith yn ddi-oed i fynd hyd at y m�r, ond arhosodd Silas a Timotheus yno.
14Then the brothers immediately sent out Paul to go as far as to the sea, and Silas and Timothy still stayed there.
15 Daeth hebryngwyr Paul ag ef i Athen, ac aethant oddi yno gyda gorchymyn i Silas a Timotheus ddod ato cyn gynted ag y gallent.
15But those who escorted Paul brought him as far as Athens. Receiving a commandment to Silas and Timothy that they should come to him very quickly, they departed.
16 Tra bu Paul yn eu disgwyl yn Athen, cythruddid ei ysbryd ynddo wrth weld y ddinas yn llawn eilunod.
16Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was provoked within him as he saw the city full of idols.
17 Gan hynny, ymresymodd yn y synagog �'r Iddewon ac �'r rhai oedd yn addoli Duw, ac yn y sgw�r bob dydd � phwy bynnag a fyddai yno.
17So he reasoned in the synagogue with the Jews and the devout persons, and in the marketplace every day with those who met him.
18 Yr oedd rhai o'r athronwyr, yn Epicwriaid a Stoiciaid, yn dadlau ag ef hefyd, a rhai'n dweud, "Beth yn y byd y mae'r clebryn yma yn mynnu ei ddweud?" Meddai eraill, "Y mae'n ymddangos ei fod yn cyhoeddi duwiau dieithr." Oherwydd cyhoeddi'r newydd da am Iesu a'r atgyfodiad yr oedd.
18Some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers also TR omits “also” were conversing with him. Some said, “What does this babbler want to say?” Others said, “He seems to be advocating foreign deities,” because he preached Jesus and the resurrection.
19 Cymerasant afael ynddo, a mynd ag ef at yr Areopagus, gan ddweud, "A gawn ni wybod beth yw'r ddysgeidiaeth newydd yma a draethir gennyt ti?
19They took hold of him, and brought him to the Areopagus, saying, “May we know what this new teaching is, which is spoken by you?
20 Oherwydd yr wyt yn dwyn i'n clyw ni ryw syniadau dieithr. Yr ydym yn dymuno cael gwybod, felly, beth yw ystyr y pethau hyn."
20For you bring certain strange things to our ears. We want to know therefore what these things mean.”
21 Nid oedd gan neb o'r Atheniaid, na'r dieithriaid oedd ar ymweliad �'r lle, amser i ddim arall ond i adrodd neu glywed y peth diweddaraf.
21Now all the Athenians and the strangers living there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell or to hear some new thing.
22 Safodd Paul yng nghanol yr Areopagus, ac meddai: "Bobl Athen, yr wyf yn gweld ar bob llaw eich bod yn dra chrefyddgar.
22Paul stood in the middle of the Areopagus, and said, “You men of Athens, I perceive that you are very religious in all things.
23 Oherwydd wrth fynd o gwmpas ac edrych ar eich pethau cysegredig, cefais yn eu plith allor ac arni'n ysgrifenedig, 'I Dduw nid adwaenir'. Yr hyn, ynteu, yr ydych chwi'n ei addoli heb ei adnabod, dyna'r hyn yr wyf fi'n ei gyhoeddi i chwi.
23For as I passed along, and observed the objects of your worship, I found also an altar with this inscription: ‘TO AN UNKNOWN GOD.’ What therefore you worship in ignorance, this I announce to you.
24 Y Duw a wnaeth y byd a phopeth sydd ynddo, nid yw ef, ac yntau'n Arglwydd nef a daear, yn preswylio mewn temlau o waith llaw.
24The God who made the world and all things in it, he, being Lord of heaven and earth, doesn’t dwell in temples made with hands,
25 Ni wasanaethir ef chwaith � dwylo dynol, fel pe bai arno angen rhywbeth, gan mai ef ei hun sy'n rhoi i bawb fywyd ac anadl a'r cwbl oll.
25neither is he served by men’s hands, as though he needed anything, seeing he himself gives to all life and breath, and all things.
26 Gwnaeth ef hefyd o un dyn yr holl genhedloedd, i breswylio ar holl wyneb y ddaear, gan osod cyfnodau penodedig a therfynau eu preswylfod.
26He made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the surface of the earth, having determined appointed seasons, and the boundaries of their dwellings,
27 Yr oeddent i geisio Duw, yn y gobaith y gallent rywfodd ymbalfalu amdano a'i ddarganfod; ac eto nid yw ef nepell oddi wrth yr un ohonom.
27that they should seek the Lord, if perhaps they might reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us.
28 'Oherwydd ynddo ef yr ydym yn byw ac yn symud ac yn bod', fel, yn wir, y dywedodd rhai o'ch beirdd chwi: 'Canys ei hiliogaeth ef hefyd ydym ni.'
28‘For in him we live, and move, and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ‘For we are also his offspring.’
29 Os ydym ni, felly, yn hiliogaeth Duw, ni ddylem dybio fod y Duwdod yn debyg i aur neu arian neu faen, gwaith nadd celfyddyd a dychymyg dyn.
29Being then the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold, or silver, or stone, engraved by art and design of man.
30 Edrychodd Duw heibio, yn wir, i amserau anwybodaeth; ond yn awr y mae'n gorchymyn i bawb ym mhob man edifarhau,
30The times of ignorance therefore God overlooked. But now he commands that all people everywhere should repent,
31 oblegid gosododd ddiwrnod pryd y bydd yn barnu'r byd mewn cyfiawnder, trwy u373?r a benododd, ac fe roes sicrwydd o hyn i bawb trwy ei atgyfodi ef oddi wrth y meirw."
31because he has appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man whom he has ordained; of which he has given assurance to all men, in that he has raised him from the dead.”
32 Pan glywsant am atgyfodiad y meirw, dechreuodd rhai wawdio, ond dywedodd eraill, "Cawn dy wrando ar y pwnc hwn rywdro eto."
32Now when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked; but others said, “We want to hear you again concerning this.”
33 Felly aeth Paul allan o'u mysg.
33Thus Paul went out from among them.
34 Ond ymlynodd rhai pobl wrtho, a chredu, ac yn eu plith Dionysius, aelod o lys yr Areopagus, a gwraig o'r enw Damaris, ac eraill gyda hwy.
34But certain men joined with him, and believed, among whom also was Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.
