¹ "Gwna alarnad am dywysogion Israel,

¹Moreover, take up a lamentation for the princes of Israel,

² a dywed: 'Y fath lewes oedd dy fam ymhlith y llewod! Gorweddodd ymysg y llewod ifainc a magu ei chenawon.

²and say, What was your mother? A lioness: she couched among lions, in the midst of the young lions she nourished her cubs.

³ Meithrinodd un o'i chenawon, a thyfodd yn llew ifanc; dysgodd larpio ysglyfaeth a bwyta pobl.

³She brought up one of her cubs: he became a young lion, and he learned to catch the prey; he devoured men.

⁴ Clywodd y cenhedloedd amdano, ac fe'i daliwyd yn eu pwll; aethant ag ef � bachau i wlad yr Aifft.

⁴The nations also heard of him; he was taken in their pit; and they brought him with hooks to the land of Egypt.

⁵ Pan welodd hi ei siomi a dinistrio ei gobaith, cymerodd un arall o'i chenawon a gwneud llew ifanc ohono.

⁵Now when she saw that she had waited, and her hope was lost, then she took another of her cubs, and made him a young lion.

⁶ Yr oedd yn prowla ymhlith y llewod, a thyfodd yn llew ifanc; dysgodd larpio ysglyfaeth a bwyta pobl.

⁶He went up and down among the lions; he became a young lion, and he learned to catch the prey; he devoured men.

⁷ Tynnodd i lawr eu ceyrydd, a dinistrio eu dinasoedd; daeth ofn ar y wlad a phopeth ynddi oherwydd su373?n ei ruo.

⁷He knew their palaces, and laid waste their cities; and the land was desolate, and its fullness, because of the noise of his roaring.

⁸ Yna daeth y cenhedloedd yn ei erbyn o'r taleithiau o amgylch; taenasant eu rhwyd drosto, ac fe'i daliwyd yn eu pwll.

⁸Then the nations set against him on every side from the provinces; and they spread their net over him; he was taken in their pit.

⁹ Tynasant ef i gawell � bachau, a mynd ag ef at frenin Babilon; rhoddwyd ef mewn carchar, fel na chlywyd ei su373?n mwyach ar fynyddoedd Israel.

⁹They put him in a cage with hooks, and brought him to the king of Babylon; they brought him into strongholds, that his voice should no more be heard on the mountains of Israel.

¹⁰ "'Yr oedd dy fam fel gwinwydden mewn gwinllan, wedi ei phlannu yn ymyl dyfroedd; yr oedd yn ffrwythlon a brigog am fod digon o ddu373?r.

¹⁰Your mother was like a vine, in your blood, planted by the waters: it was fruitful and full of branches by reason of many waters.

¹¹ Yr oedd ei changhennau yn gryfion, yn addas i deyrnwialen llywodraethwyr. Tyfodd yn uchel iawn, uwchlaw'r prysgwydd; yr oedd yn amlwg oherwydd ei huchder a nifer ei changau.

¹¹It had strong rods for the scepters of those who bore rule, and their stature was exalted among the thick boughs, and they were seen in their height with the multitude of their branches.

¹² Ond fe'i diwreiddiwyd mewn dicter, fe'i bwriwyd hi i'r llawr; deifiodd gwynt y dwyrain hi, dinoethwyd hi o'i ffrwythau; gwywodd ei changau cryfion, ac yswyd hwy gan d�n.

¹²But it was plucked up in fury, it was cast down to the ground, and the east wind dried up its fruit: its strong rods were broken off and withered; the fire consumed them.

¹³ Yn awr, y mae wedi ei thrawsblannu mewn diffeithwch, mewn tir cras a sychedig.

¹³Now it is planted in the wilderness, in a dry and thirsty land.

¹⁴ Lledodd t�n o un o'i changhennau ac ysu ei blagur; ni adawyd arni yr un gangen gref, yn addas i deyrnwialen llywodraethwr.' Galarnad yw hon, ac y mae i'w defnyddio'n alarnad."

¹⁴Fire is gone out of the rods of its branches, it has devoured its fruit, so that there is in it no strong rod to be a scepter to rule. This is a lamentation, and shall be for a lamentation.
