1 Ar �l hyn, yn nheyrnasiad Artaxerxes brenin Persia, daeth Esra i fyny o Fabilon; hwn oedd Esra fab Seraia, fab Asareia, fab Hilceia,
1Now after these things, in the reign of Artaxerxes king of Persia, Ezra the son of Seraiah, the son of Azariah, the son of Hilkiah,
2 fab Salum, fab Sadoc, fab Ahitub,
2the son of Shallum, the son of Zadok, the son of Ahitub,
3 fab Amareia, fab Asareia, fab Meraioth,
3the son of Amariah, the son of Azariah, the son of Meraioth,
4 fab Seraheia, fab Ussi, fab Bucci,
4the son of Zerahiah, the son of Uzzi, the son of Bukki,
5 fab Abisua, fab Phinees, fab Eleasar, fab Aaron yr archoffeiriad.
5the son of Abishua, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the chief priest;
6 Yr oedd Esra yn ysgrifennydd hyddysg yng nghyfraith Moses, a roddwyd gan ARGLWYDD Dduw Israel; ac am ei fod yn derbyn ffafr gan yr ARGLWYDD ei Dduw, cafodd y cwbl a ddymunai gan y brenin.
6this Ezra went up from Babylon: and he was a ready scribe in the law of Moses, which Yahweh, the God of Israel, had given; and the king granted him all his request, according to the hand of Yahweh his God on him.
7 Yn y seithfed flwyddyn i'r Brenin Artaxerxes, dychwelodd i Jerwsalem gyda rhai o'r Israeliaid ac o'r offeiriaid a'r Lefiaid a'r cantorion a'r porthorion a gweision y deml;
7There went up some of the children of Israel, and of the priests, and the Levites, and the singers, and the porters, and the Nethinim, to Jerusalem, in the seventh year of Artaxerxes the king.
8 a chyrhaeddodd Jerwsalem yn y pumed mis yn seithfed flwyddyn y brenin.
8He came to Jerusalem in the fifth month, which was in the seventh year of the king.
9 Yr oedd wedi cychwyn ar y daith o Fabilon ar y dydd cyntaf o'r mis cyntaf, a chyrraedd Jerwsalem ar y dydd cyntaf o'r pumed mis; yr oedd Esra wedi cael ffafr gan ei Dduw,
9For on the first day of the first month began he to go up from Babylon; and on the first day of the fifth month came he to Jerusalem, according to the good hand of his God on him.
10 oherwydd iddo ymroi i chwilio cyfraith yr ARGLWYDD a'i chadw, ac i ddysgu deddfau a chyfreithiau yn Israel.
10For Ezra had set his heart to seek the law of Yahweh, and to do it, and to teach in Israel statutes and ordinances.
11 Dyma gopi o'r llythyr a roes y Brenin Artaxerxes i Esra'r offeiriad a'r ysgrifennydd, un cyfarwydd � chynnwys gorchmynion yr ARGLWYDD a'i ddeddfau i Israel:
11Now this is the copy of the letter that the king Artaxerxes gave to Ezra the priest, the scribe, even the scribe of the words of the commandments of Yahweh, and of his statutes to Israel:
12 "Artaxerxes brenin y brenhinoedd at Esra'r offeiriad, ysgrifennydd cyfraith Duw'r nefoedd, cyfarchion!
12Artaxerxes, king of kings, to Ezra the priest, the scribe of the law of the God of heaven, perfect and so forth.
13 Yn awr dyma fy ngorchmynion i bwy bynnag yn fy nheyrnas o bobl Israel a'u hoffeiriaid a'u Lefiaid sy'n dymuno mynd gyda thi i Jerwsalem: caiff fynd.
13I make a decree, that all those of the people of Israel, and their priests and the Levites, in my realm, who are minded of their own free will to go to Jerusalem, go with you.
14 Oherwydd fe'th anfonir gan y brenin a'i saith gynghorwr i wneud arolwg o Jwda a Jerwsalem ynglu375?n � chyfraith dy Dduw, sydd dan dy ofal.
14Because you are sent of the king and his seven counselors, to inquire concerning Judah and Jerusalem, according to the law of your God which is in your hand,
15 Dygi'r arian a'r aur a roddwyd yn wirfoddol gan y brenin a'i gynghorwyr i Dduw Israel, sydd �'i drigfan yn Jerwsalem,
15and to carry the silver and gold, which the king and his counselors have freely offered to the God of Israel, whose habitation is in Jerusalem,
16 a hefyd yr holl arian a'r aur a gei di trwy holl dalaith Babilon, ac offrymau gwirfoddol y bobl a'r offeiriaid a roddwyd at du375? eu Duw yn Jerwsalem.
16and all the silver and gold that you shall find in all the province of Babylon, with the freewill offering of the people, and of the priests, offering willingly for the house of their God which is in Jerusalem;
17 �'r arian yma gofala brynu teirw, hyrddod ac u373?yn, gyda'u bwydoffrwm a'u diodoffrwm, a'u haberthu ar allor tu375? eich Duw yn Jerwsalem.
17therefore you shall with all diligence buy with this money bulls, rams, lambs, with their meal offerings and their drink offerings, and shall offer them on the altar of the house of your God which is in Jerusalem.
18 � gweddill yr arian a'r aur cei di a'th gymrodyr wneud fel y gwelwch orau, yn �l ewyllys eich Duw.
18Whatever shall seem good to you and to your brothers to do with the rest of the silver and the gold, do that after the will of your God.
19 Am y llestri a roddwyd i ti at wasanaeth tu375? dy Dduw, gosod hwy o'i flaen yn Jerwsalem.
19The vessels that are given to you for the service of the house of your God, deliver before the God of Jerusalem.
20 A pha beth bynnag arall sy'n angenrheidiol i du375? dy Dduw, ac y disgwylir i ti ei roi, rho ef o storfa'r brenin.
20Whatever more shall be needful for the house of your God, which you shall have occasion to bestow, bestow it out of the king’s treasure house.
21 Ac yr wyf fi, y Brenin Artaxerxes, yn rhoi'r gorchymyn hwn i holl drysoryddion talaith Tu-hwnt-i'r-Ewffrates: Rhowch yn ddiymdroi bob peth a ofynnir ichwi gan Esra'r offeiriad, ysgrifennydd cyfraith Duw'r nefoedd,
21I, even I Artaxerxes the king, do make a decree to all the treasurers who are beyond the River, that whatever Ezra the priest, the scribe of the law of the God of heaven, shall require of you, it be done with all diligence,
22 hyd at gan talent o arian, can mesur yr un o wenith, gwin ac olew, a halen heb fesur.
22to one hundred talents of silver, and to one hundred measures of wheat, and to one hundred baths of wine, and to one hundred baths of oil, and salt without prescribing how much.
23 Gwnewch bopeth ar gyfer tu375? Duw'r nefoedd yn union fel y mae Duw'r nefoedd wedi ei orchymyn, rhag iddo lidio yn erbyn teyrnas y brenin a'i feibion.
23Whatever is commanded by the God of heaven, let it be done exactly for the house of the God of heaven; for why should there be wrath against the realm of the king and his sons?
24 Yr ydym hefyd yn eich hysbysu nad yw'n gyfreithlon gosod treth, teyrnged na tholl ar neb o offeiriaid, Lefiaid, cantorion, porthorion, gweision na gweinidogion tu375? Dduw.
24Also we inform you, that touching any of the priests and Levites, the singers, porters, Nethinim, or servants of this house of God, it shall not be lawful to impose tribute, custom, or toll, on them.
25 A thithau, Esra, yn unol �'r ddoethineb ddwyfol sydd gennyt, ethol swyddogion a barnwyr i farnu pawb yn Tu-hwnt-i'r-Ewffrates sy'n gwybod cyfraith dy Dduw, ac i ddysgu pawb sydd heb ei gwybod.
25You, Ezra, after the wisdom of your God who is in your hand, appoint magistrates and judges, who may judge all the people who are beyond the River, all such as know the laws of your God; and teach him who doesn’t know them.
26 Pob un nad yw'n cadw cyfraith dy Dduw a chyfraith y brenin, dyger ef yn ddi-oed i farn, a'i ddedfrydu naill ai i farwolaeth neu i alltudiaeth neu ddirwy neu garchar."
26Whoever will not do the law of your God, and the law of the king, let judgment be executed on him with all diligence, whether it be to death, or to banishment, or to confiscation of goods, or to imprisonment.
27 Yna dywedodd Esra: "Bendigedig fyddo ARGLWYDD Dduw ein hynafiaid, a symbylodd y brenin i harddu tu375?'r ARGLWYDD yn Jerwsalem,
27Blessed be Yahweh, the God of our fathers, who has put such a thing as this in the king’s heart, to beautify the house of Yahweh which is in Jerusalem;
28 ac a barodd i mi gael ffafr gan y brenin a'i gynghorwyr a'i bendefigion. Am fod yr ARGLWYDD fy Nuw yn fy nerthu, ymwrolais a chasglu rhai blaenllaw o blith yr Israeliaid i fynd gyda mi."
28and has extended loving kindness to me before the king, and his counselors, and before all the king’s mighty princes. I was strengthened according to the hand of Yahweh my God on me, and I gathered together out of Israel chief men to go up with me.
