¹ Preswyliodd Jacob yng ngwlad Canaan, y wlad yr ymdeithiodd ei dad ynddi.

¹Jacob lived in the land of his father’s travels, in the land of Canaan.

² Dyma hanes tylwyth Jacob. Yr oedd Joseff yn ddwy ar bymtheg oed, ac yn bugeilio'r praidd gyda'i frodyr, gan helpu meibion Bilha a Silpa, gwragedd ei dad; a chariodd Joseff straeon drwg amdanynt i'w tad.

²This is the history of the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brothers. He was a boy with the sons of Bilhah and Zilpah, his father’s wives. Joseph brought an evil report of them to their father.

³ Yr oedd Israel yn caru Joseff yn fwy na'i holl blant, gan mai mab ei henaint ydoedd; a gwnaeth wisg laes iddo.

³Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, because he was the son of his old age, and he made him a coat of many colors.

⁴ Pan welodd ei frodyr fod eu tad yn ei garu yn fwy na'r un ohonynt, rhoesant eu cas arno fel na fedrent ddweud gair caredig wrtho.

⁴His brothers saw that their father loved him more than all his brothers, and they hated him, and couldn’t speak peaceably to him.

⁵ Cafodd Joseff freuddwyd, a phan ddywedodd wrth ei frodyr amdani, aethant i'w gas�u yn fwy fyth.

⁵Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it to his brothers, and they hated him all the more.

⁶ Dywedodd wrthynt, "Gwrandewch, dyma'r freuddwyd a gefais:

⁶He said to them, “Please hear this dream which I have dreamed:

⁷ yr oeddem yn rhwymo ysgubau yn y maes, a dyma f'ysgub i yn codi ar ei sefyll, a daeth eich ysgubau chwi yn gylch o'i chwmpas ac ymgrymu i'm hysgub i."

⁷for behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and behold, my sheaf arose and also stood upright; and behold, your sheaves came around, and bowed down to my sheaf.”

⁸ Yna gofynnodd ei frodyr iddo, "Ai ti sydd i deyrnasu arnom? A fyddi di'n arglwydd arnom ni?" Ac aethant i'w gas�u ef yn fwy eto o achos ei freuddwydion a'i eiriau.

⁸His brothers said to him, “Will you indeed reign over us? Or will you indeed have dominion over us?” They hated him all the more for his dreams and for his words.

⁹ Yna cafodd freuddwyd arall, ac adroddodd amdani wrth ei frodyr a dweud, "Cefais freuddwyd arall: dyna lle'r oedd yr haul a'r lleuad ac un seren ar ddeg yn ymgrymu i mi."

⁹He dreamed yet another dream, and told it to his brothers, and said, “Behold, I have dreamed yet another dream: and behold, the sun and the moon and eleven stars bowed down to me.”

¹⁰ Wedi iddo ei hadrodd wrth ei dad a'i frodyr, ceryddodd ei dad ef, a dweud, "Beth yw'r freuddwyd hon a gefaist? A ddown ni, myfi a'th fam a'th frodyr, i ymgrymu i'r llawr i ti?"

¹⁰He told it to his father and to his brothers. His father rebuked him, and said to him, “What is this dream that you have dreamed? Will I and your mother and your brothers indeed come to bow ourselves down to you to the earth?”

¹¹ A chenfigennodd ei frodyr wrtho, ond cadwodd ei dad y peth yn ei gof.

¹¹His brothers envied him, but his father kept this saying in mind.

¹² Yr oedd ei frodyr wedi mynd i fugeilio praidd eu tad ger Sichem.

¹²His brothers went to feed their father’s flock in Shechem.

¹³ A dywedodd Israel wrth Joseff, "Onid yw dy frodyr yn bugeilio ger Sichem? Tyrd, fe'th anfonaf di atynt." Atebodd yntau, "o'r gorau."

¹³Israel said to Joseph, “Aren’t your brothers feeding the flock in Shechem? Come, and I will send you to them.” He said to him, “Here I am.”

¹⁴ Yna dywedodd wrtho, "Dos i weld sut y mae dy frodyr a'r praidd, a thyrd � gair yn �l i mi." Felly anfonodd ef o ddyffryn Hebron, ac aeth tua Sichem.

¹⁴He said to him, “Go now, see whether it is well with your brothers, and well with the flock; and bring me word again.” So he sent him out of the valley of Hebron, and he came to Shechem.

¹⁵ Cyfarfu gu373?r ag ef pan oedd yn crwydro yn y fro, a gofyn iddo, "Beth wyt ti'n ei geisio?"

¹⁵A certain man found him, and behold, he was wandering in the field. The man asked him, “What are you looking for?”

¹⁶ Atebodd yntau, "Rwy'n ceisio fy mrodyr; dywed wrthyf ble maent yn bugeilio."

¹⁶He said, “I am looking for my brothers. Tell me, please, where they are feeding the flock.”

¹⁷ A dywedodd y gu373?r, "Y maent wedi mynd oddi yma, oherwydd clywais hwy'n dweud, 'Awn i Dothan.'" Felly aeth Joseff ar �l ei frodyr, a chafodd hyd iddynt yn Dothan.

¹⁷The man said, “They have left here, for I heard them say, ‘Let us go to Dothan.’” Joseph went after his brothers, and found them in Dothan.

¹⁸ Gwelsant ef o bell, a chyn iddo gyrraedd atynt gwnaethant gynllwyn i'w ladd,

¹⁸They saw him afar off, and before he came near to them, they conspired against him to kill him.

¹⁹ a dweud wrth ei gilydd, "Dacw'r breuddwydiwr hwnnw'n dod.

¹⁹They said one to another, “Behold, this dreamer comes.

²⁰ Dewch, gadewch inni ei ladd a'i daflu i ryw bydew, a dweud fod anifail gwyllt wedi ei ddifa; yna cawn weld beth a ddaw o'i freuddwydion."

²⁰Come now therefore, and let’s kill him, and cast him into one of the pits, and we will say, ‘An evil animal has devoured him.’ We will see what will become of his dreams.”

²¹ Ond pan glywodd Reuben, achubodd ef o'u gafael a dweud, "Peidiwn �'i ladd."

²¹Reuben heard it, and delivered him out of their hand, and said, “Let’s not take his life.”

²² Dywedodd Reuben wrthynt, "Peidiwch � thywallt gwaed; taflwch ef i'r pydew hwn sydd yn y diffeithwch, ond peidiwch � gwneud niwed iddo." Dywedodd hyn er mwyn ei achub o'u gafael a'i ddwyn yn �l at ei dad.

²²Reuben said to them, “Shed no blood. Throw him into this pit that is in the wilderness, but lay no hand on him”—that he might deliver him out of their hand, to restore him to his father.

²³ A phan ddaeth Joseff at ei frodyr, tynasant ei wisg oddi arno, y wisg laes yr oedd yn ei gwisgo,

²³It happened, when Joseph came to his brothers, that they stripped Joseph of his coat, the coat of many colors that was on him;

²⁴ a'i gymryd a'i daflu i'r pydew. Yr oedd y pydew yn wag, heb ddu373?r ynddo.

²⁴and they took him, and threw him into the pit. The pit was empty. There was no water in it.

²⁵ Tra oeddent yn eistedd i fwyta, codasant eu golwg a gweld cwmni o Ismaeliaid yn dod ar eu taith o Gilead, a'u camelod yn dwyn glud p�r, balm a myrr, i'w cludo i lawr i'r Aifft.

²⁵They sat down to eat bread, and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and saw a caravan of Ishmaelites was coming from Gilead, with their camels bearing spices and balm and myrrh, going to carry it down to Egypt.

²⁶ A dywedodd Jwda wrth ei frodyr, "Faint gwell fyddwn o ladd ein brawd a chelu ei waed?

²⁶Judah said to his brothers, “What profit is it if we kill our brother and conceal his blood?

²⁷ Dewch, gadewch inni ei werthu i'r Ismaeliaid; peidiwn � gwneud niwed iddo, oherwydd ein brawd ni a'n cnawd ydyw." Cytunodd ei frodyr.

²⁷Come, and let’s sell him to the Ishmaelites, and not let our hand be on him; for he is our brother, our flesh.” His brothers listened to him.

²⁸ Yna, pan ddaeth marchnatwyr o Midian heibio, codasant Joseff o'r pydew, a'i werthu i'r Ismaeliaid am ugain sicl o arian. Aethant hwythau � Joseff i'r Aifft.

²⁸Midianites who were merchants passed by, and they drew and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmaelites for twenty pieces of silver. They brought Joseph into Egypt.

²⁹ Pan aeth Reuben yn �l at y pydew a gweld nad oedd Joseff ynddo, rhwygodd ei ddillad

²⁹Reuben returned to the pit; and saw that Joseph wasn’t in the pit; and he tore his clothes.

³⁰ a mynd at ei frodyr a dweud, "Nid yw'r bachgen yno; a minnau, i ble'r af?"

³⁰He returned to his brothers, and said, “The child is no more; and I, where will I go?”

³¹ Cymerasant wisg Joseff, a lladd gafr, a throchi'r wisg yn y gwaed.

³¹They took Joseph’s coat, and killed a male goat, and dipped the coat in the blood.

³² Yna aethant �'r wisg laes yn �l at eu tad, a dweud, "Daethom o hyd i hon; edrych di ai gwisg dy fab ydyw."

³²They took the coat of many colors, and they brought it to their father, and said, “We have found this. Examine it, now, whether it is your son’s coat or not.”

³³ Fe'i hadnabu a dywedodd, "Gwisg fy mab yw hi; anifail gwyllt sydd wedi ei ddifa. Yn wir, y mae Joseff wedi ei larpio."

³³He recognized it, and said, “It is my son’s coat. An evil animal has devoured him. Joseph is without doubt torn in pieces.”

³⁴ Yna rhwygodd Jacob ei ddillad a gwisgo sachliain am ei lwynau, a galarodd am ei fab am amser hir.

³⁴Jacob tore his clothes, and put sackcloth on his waist, and mourned for his son many days.

³⁵ A daeth pob un o'i feibion a'i ferched i'w gysuro, ond gwrthododd dderbyn cysur, a dywedodd, "Mewn galar yr af finnau i lawr i'r bedd at fy mab." Ac wylodd ei dad amdano.

³⁵All his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted. He said, “For I will go down to Sheol Sheol is the place of the dead. to my son mourning.” His father wept for him.

³⁶ Gwerthodd y Midianiaid ef yn yr Aifft i Potiffar, swyddog Pharo, pennaeth y gwarchodwyr.

³⁶The Midianites sold him into Egypt to Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh’s, the captain of the guard.
