²He comes forth like a flower, and is cut down. He also flees like a shadow, and doesn’t continue.

³ A roi di sylw i un fel hyn, a'i ddwyn ef i farn gyda thi?

³Do you open your eyes on such a one, and bring me into judgment with you?

⁴ Pwy a gaiff lendid allan o aflendid? Neb!

⁴Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? Not one.

⁵ Gan fod terfyn i'w ddyddiau, a chan iti rifo'i fisoedd, a gosod iddo ffin nas croesir,

⁵Seeing his days are determined, the number of his months is with you, and you have appointed his bounds that he can’t pass;

⁸ Er i'w gwraidd heneiddio yn y ddaear, ac i'w boncyff farweiddio yn y pridd,

⁸Though its root grows old in the earth, and its stock dies in the ground,

⁹ pan synhwyra ddu373?r fe adfywia, ac fe flagura fel planhigyn ifanc.

⁹yet through the scent of water it will bud, and put forth boughs like a plant.

¹⁰ Ond pan fydd rhywun farw, �'n ddi-nerth, a phan rydd ei anadl olaf, nid yw'n bod mwyach.

¹⁰But man dies, and is laid low. Yes, man gives up the spirit, and where is he?

¹¹ Derfydd y du373?r o'r llyn; disbyddir a sychir yr afon;

¹¹As the waters fail from the sea, and the river wastes and dries up,

¹² felly'r meidrol, fe orwedd ac ni chyfyd, ni ddeffry tra pery'r nefoedd, ac nis cynhyrfir o'i gwsg.

¹³ O na bait yn fy nghuddio yn Sheol, ac yn fy nghadw o'r golwg nes i'th lid gilio, a phennu amser arbennig imi, a'm dwyn i gof!

¹³“Oh that you would hide me in Sheol Sheol is the place of the dead. , that you would keep me secret, until your wrath is past, that you would appoint me a set time, and remember me!

¹⁴If a man dies, shall he live again? All the days of my warfare would I wait, until my release should come.

¹⁵ Gelwit arnaf, ac atebwn innau; hiraethit am waith dy ddwylo.

¹⁵You would call, and I would answer you. You would have a desire to the work of your hands.

¹⁶ Yna cedwit gyfrif o'm camre, heb wylio fy mhechod;
