¹ Ar �l hyn dyrchafodd y Brenin Ahasferus Haman fab Hammedatha yr Agagiad, a rhoi iddo le blaenllaw, gan ei osod yn uwch na'r holl dywysogion oedd gydag ef.

¹After these things King Ahasuerus promoted Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, and advanced him, and set his seat above all the princes who were with him.

² Ac yr oedd pob un o'r gweision ym mhorth llys y brenin yn ymgrymu ac yn ymostwng iddo, yn �l gorchymyn y brenin. Ond nid oedd Mordecai yn ymostwng nac yn ymgrymu iddo.

²All the king’s servants who were in the king’s gate bowed down, and paid homage to Haman; for the king had so commanded concerning him. But Mordecai didn’t bow down or pay him homage.

³ Dywedodd gweision y brenin a oedd yn y porth wrth Mordecai. "Pam yr wyt yn torri gorchymyn y brenin?"

³Then the king’s servants, who were in the king’s gate, said to Mordecai, “Why do you disobey the king’s commandment?”

⁴ Ond er eu bod yn gofyn hyn iddo'n feunyddiol, ni wrandawai arnynt. Felly dywedasant wrth Haman, er mwyn gweld a fyddai Mordecai'n dal ei dir, oherwydd yr oedd wedi dweud wrthynt ei fod yn Iddew.

⁴Now it came to pass, when they spoke daily to him, and he didn’t listen to them, that they told Haman, to see whether Mordecai’s reason would stand; for he had told them that he was a Jew.

⁵ Pan welodd Haman nad oedd Mordecai am ymostwng nac ymgrymu iddo, gwylltiodd yn enbyd.

⁵When Haman saw that Mordecai didn’t bow down, nor pay him homage, Haman was full of wrath.

⁶ Wedi clywed i ba genedl yr oedd Mordecai yn perthyn, nid oedd yn fodlon ymosod ar Mordecai yn unig, ond yr oedd yn awyddus i ddifa cenedl Mordecai, sef yr holl Iddewon yn nheyrnas Ahasferus.

⁶But he scorned the thought of laying hands on Mordecai alone, for they had made known to him Mordecai’s people. Therefore Haman sought to destroy all the Jews who were throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus, even Mordecai’s people.

⁷ Yn neuddegfed flwyddyn y Brenin Ahasferus, yn y mis cyntaf, sef Nisan, bwriasant Pwr (hynny yw, coelbren) o flaen Haman i ddewis dydd a mis, ac fe syrthiodd y coelbren ar y trydydd dydd ar ddeg o'r deuddegfed mis, sef Adar.

⁷In the first month, which is the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of King Ahasuerus, they cast Pur, that is, the lot, before Haman from day to day, and from month to month, and chose the twelfth month, which is the month Adar.

⁸ Dywedodd Haman wrth y Brenin Ahasferus, "Y mae yna genedl, wedi ei chwalu a'i gwasgaru ymhlith y bobloedd yn holl daleithiau dy deyrnas, sy'n ei chadw ei hun ar wah�n. Y mae eu cyfreithiau'n wahanol i rai pawb arall, ac nid ydynt yn cadw cyfreithiau'r brenin; nid yw er lles y brenin eu goddef.

⁸Haman said to King Ahasuerus, “There is a certain people scattered abroad and dispersed among the peoples in all the provinces of your kingdom, and their laws are different than other people’s. They don’t keep the king’s laws. Therefore it is not for the king’s profit to allow them to remain.

⁹ Os cydsynia'r brenin i orchymyn eu difa, yna fe dalaf fi ddeng mil o dalentau arian i'r trysordy brenhinol ar gyfer y rhai sy'n gwneud hyn."

⁹If it pleases the king, let it be written that they be destroyed; and I will pay ten thousand talents of silver into the hands of those who are in charge of the king’s business, to bring it into the king’s treasuries.”

¹⁰ Yna tynnodd y brenin ei fodrwy oddi ar ei law a'i rhoi i Haman fab Hammedatha yr Agagiad, gelyn yr Iddewon,

¹⁰The king took his ring from his hand, and gave it to Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, the Jews’ enemy.

¹¹ a dweud wrtho, "Cadw'r arian, a gwna fel y mynni �'r bobl."

¹¹The king said to Haman, “The silver is given to you, the people also, to do with them as it seems good to you.”

¹² Yna ar y trydydd dydd ar ddeg o'r mis cyntaf, galwyd ar ysgrifenyddion y brenin, ac ar orchymyn Haman ysgrifennwyd at bendefigion y brenin, rheolwyr pob talaith a thywysogion pob cenedl, i bob talaith yn ei hysgrifen ei hun a phob cenedl yn ei hiaith ei hun. Yr oedd y wu375?s wedi ei hysgrifennu yn enw'r Brenin Ahasferus ac wedi ei selio �'r fodrwy frenhinol.

¹²Then the king’s scribes were called in on the first month, on the thirteenth day of the month; and all that Haman commanded was written to the king’s satraps, and to the governors who were over every province, and to the princes of every people, to every province according its writing, and to every people in their language. It was written in the name of King Ahasuerus, and it was sealed with the king’s ring.

¹³ Yna anfonwyd negeswyr gyda llythyrau i holl daleithiau'r brenin yn gorchymyn dinistrio, lladd a difa pob Iddew, yn llanc a hynafgwr, plant a gwragedd, ac ysbeilio'u heiddo, ar yr un diwrnod, sef y trydydd dydd ar ddeg o'r deuddegfed mis, hynny yw, Adar.

¹³Letters were sent by couriers into all the king’s provinces, to destroy, to kill, and to cause to perish, all Jews, both young and old, little children and women, in one day, even on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar, and to plunder their possessions.

¹⁴ Yr oedd copi o'r wu375?s i'w anfon yn gyfraith i bob talaith, a'i ddangos i'r holl bobl er mwyn iddynt fod yn barod erbyn y diwrnod hwnnw.

¹⁴A copy of the letter, that the decree should be given out in every province, was published to all the peoples, that they should be ready against that day.

¹⁵ Aeth y negeswyr allan ar frys yn �l gorchymyn y brenin, a chyhoeddwyd y gorchymyn yn Susan y brifddinas. Yna eisteddodd y brenin a Haman i yfed; ond yr oedd dinas Susan yn drist.

¹⁵The couriers went forth in haste by the king’s commandment, and the decree was given out in the citadel of Susa. The king and Haman sat down to drink; but the city of Shushan was perplexed.
