¹Festus therefore, being come into the eparchy, after three days went up to Jerusalem from Caesarea.

¹ Felly, dridiau wedi i Ffestus gyrraedd ei dalaith, aeth i fyny i Jerwsalem o Gesarea,

²And the chief priests and the chief of the Jews laid informations before him against Paul, and besought him,

² a gosododd y prif offeiriaid ac arweinwyr yr Iddewon eu hachos yn erbyn Paul ger ei fron.

³asking as a grace against him that he would send for him to Jerusalem, laying people in wait to kill him on the way.

³ Yr oeddent yn ceisio gan Ffestus eu ffafrio hwy yn ei erbyn ef, yn deisyf am iddo anfon amdano i Jerwsalem, ac ar yr un pryd yn gwneud cynllwyn i'w ladd ar y ffordd.

⁴Festus therefore answered that Paul should be kept at Caesarea, and that he himself was about to set out shortly.

⁴ Atebodd Ffestus, fodd bynnag, fod Paul dan warchodaeth yng Nghesarea, a'i fod ef ei hun yn bwriadu cychwyn i ffwrdd yn fuan.

⁵Let therefore the persons of authority among you, says he, going down too, if there be anything in this man, accuse him.

⁵ "Felly," meddai, "gadewch i'r gwu375?r sydd ag awdurdod yn eich plith ddod i lawr gyda mi a'i gyhuddo ef, os yw'r dyn wedi gwneud rhywbeth o'i le."

⁶And having remained among them not more than eight or ten days, he went down to Caesarea; and on the next day, having sat down on the judgment-seat, commanded Paul to be brought.

⁶ Arhosodd Ffestus gyda hwy am wyth neu ddeg diwrnod ar y mwyaf. Yna aeth i lawr i Gesarea, a thrannoeth cymerodd ei le yn y llys a gorchymyn dod � Paul gerbron.

⁷And when he was come, the Jews who were come down from Jerusalem stood round, bringing many and grievous charges which they were not able to prove:

⁷ Pan ymddangosodd Paul, safodd yr Iddewon oedd wedi dod i lawr o Jerwsalem o'i amgylch, gan ddwyn llawer o gyhuddiadau difrifol yn ei erbyn.

⁸Paul answering for himself, Neither against the law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar, have I offended [in] anything.

⁸ Ond ni allent eu profi yn wyneb yr hyn a ddywedodd Paul yn ei amddiffyniad: "Nid wyf fi wedi troseddu o gwbl, nac yn erbyn Cyfraith yr Iddewon, nac yn erbyn y deml, nac yn erbyn Cesar."

⁹But Festus, desirous of obliging the Jews, to acquire their favour, answering Paul, said, Art thou willing to go up to Jerusalem, there to be judged before me concerning these things?

⁹ Ond gan fod Ffestus yn awyddus i ennill ffafr yr Iddewon, gofynnodd i Paul, "A wyt ti'n fodlon mynd i fyny i Jerwsalem a chael dy farnu yno ger fy mron i am y pethau hyn?"

¹⁰But Paul said, I am standing before the judgment-seat of Caesar, where I ought to be judged. To the Jews have I done no wrong, as *thou* also very well knowest.

¹⁰ Dywedodd Paul, "Yr wyf fi'n sefyll gerbron llys Cesar, lle y dylid fy marnu. Ni throseddais o gwbl yn erbyn yr Iddewon, fel y gwyddost ti yn eithaf da.

¹¹If then I have done any wrong and committed anything worthy of death, I do not deprecate dying; but if there is nothing of those things of which they accuse me, no man can give me up to them. I appeal to Caesar.

¹¹ Fodd bynnag, os wyf yn droseddwr, ac os wyf wedi gwneud rhywbeth sy'n haeddu marwolaeth, nid wyf yn ceisio osgoi dedfryd marwolaeth. Ond os yw cyhuddiadau'r bobl hyn yn fy erbyn yn ddi-sail, ni all neb fy nhrosglwyddo iddynt fel ffafr. Yr wyf yn apelio at Gesar."

¹²Then Festus, having conferred with the council, answered, Thou hast appealed to Caesar. To Caesar shalt thou go.

¹² Yna, wedi iddo drafod y mater �'i gynghorwyr, atebodd Ffestus: "At Gesar yr wyt wedi apelio; at Gesar y cei fynd."

¹³And when certain days had elapsed, Agrippa the king and Bernice arrived at Caesarea to salute Festus.

¹³ Ymhen rhai dyddiau daeth y Brenin Agripa a Bernice i lawr i Gesarea i groesawu Ffestus.

¹⁴And when they had spent many days there, Festus laid before the king the matters relating to Paul, saying, There is a certain man left prisoner by Felix,

¹⁴ A chan eu bod yn treulio dyddiau lawer yno, cyflwynodd Ffestus achos Paul i sylw'r brenin. "Y mae yma ddyn," meddai, "wedi ei adael gan Ffelix yn garcharor,

¹⁵concerning whom, when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews laid informations, requiring judgment against him:

¹⁵ a phan oeddwn yn Jerwsalem gosododd y prif offeiriaid a henuriaid yr Iddewon ei achos ef ger fy mron, a gofyn am ei gondemnio.

¹⁶to whom I answered, It is not [the] custom of the Romans to give up any man before that the accused have the accusers face to face, and he have got opportunity of defence touching the charge.

¹⁶ Atebais hwy nad oedd yn arfer gan Rufeinwyr drosglwyddo unrhyw un fel ffafr cyn bod y cyhuddedig yn dod wyneb yn wyneb �'i gyhuddwyr, ac yn cael cyfle i'w amddiffyn ei hun yn erbyn y cyhuddiad.

¹⁷When therefore they had come together here, without putting it off, I sat the next day on the judgment-seat and commanded the man to be brought:

¹⁷ Felly, pan ddaethant ynghyd yma, heb oedi dim cymerais fy lle drannoeth yn y llys, a gorchymyn dod �'r dyn gerbron.

¹⁸concerning whom the accusers, standing up, brought no such accusation of guilt as *I* supposed;

¹⁸ Pan gododd ei gyhuddwyr i'w erlyn, nid oeddent yn ei gyhuddo o'r un o'r troseddau a ddisgwyliwn i.

¹⁹but had against him certain questions of their own system of worship, and concerning a certain Jesus who is dead, whom Paul affirmed to be living.

¹⁹ Ond rhyw ddadleuon oedd ganddynt ag ef ynghylch eu crefydd eu hunain, ac ynghylch rhyw Iesu oedd wedi marw, ond y mynnai Paul ei fod yn fyw.

²⁰And as I myself was at a loss as to an inquiry into these things, I said, Was he willing to go to Jerusalem and there to be judged concerning these things?

²⁰ A chan fy mod mewn penbleth ynglu375?n �'r ddadl ar y pethau hyn, gofynnais iddo a oedd yn dymuno mynd i Jerwsalem, a chael ei farnu amdanynt yno.

²¹But Paul having appealed to be kept for the cognisance of Augustus, I commanded him to be kept till I shall send him to Caesar.

²¹ Ond gan i Paul apelio am gael ei gadw dan warchodaeth, i gael dyfarniad gan yr Ymerawdwr, gorchmynnais ei gadw felly nes imi ei anfon at Gesar."

²²And Agrippa [said] to Festus, I myself also would desire to hear the man. To-morrow, said he, thou shalt hear him.

²² Meddai Agripa wrth Ffestus, "Mi hoffwn innau glywed y dyn." Meddai yntau, "Fe gei ei glywed yfory."

²³On the morrow therefore, Agrippa being come, and Bernice, with great pomp, and having entered into the hall of audience, with the chiliarchs and the men of distinction of the city, and Festus having given command, Paul was brought.

²³ Trannoeth, felly, daeth Agripa a Bernice, yn fawr eu rhwysg, a mynd i mewn i'r llys ynghyd � chapteiniaid a gwu375?r amlwg y ddinas; ac ar orchymyn Ffestus, daethpwyd � Paul gerbron.

²⁴And Festus said, King Agrippa, and all men who are here present with us, ye see this person, concerning whom all the multitude of the Jews applied to me both in Jerusalem and here, crying out against [him] that he ought not to live any longer.

²⁴ Ac meddai Ffestus, "Y Brenin Agripa, a chwi oll sydd yma gyda ni, yr ydych yn gweld y dyn hwn, y gwnaeth holl liaws yr Iddewon gais gennyf yn ei gylch, yn Jerwsalem ac yma, gan weiddi na ddylai gael byw ddim mwy.

²⁵But I, having found that he had done nothing worthy of death, and this [man] himself having appealed to Augustus, I have decided to send him;

²⁵ Ond gwelais i nad oedd wedi gwneud dim yn haeddu marwolaeth; a chan i'r dyn ei hun apelio at yr Ymerawdwr, penderfynais ei anfon ato.

²⁶concerning whom I have nothing certain to write to my lord. Wherefore I have brought him before you, and specially before thee, king Agrippa, so that an examination having been gone into I may have something to write:

²⁶ Ond nid oes gennyf ddim byd pendant i'w ysgrifennu amdano at ein Harglwydd. Gan hynny, yr wyf wedi dod ag ef ymlaen ger eich bron chwi, ac yn enwedig ger dy fron di, y Brenin Agripa, er mwyn gwneud archwiliad, a chael rhywbeth i'w ysgrifennu.

²⁷for it seems to me senseless, sending a prisoner, not also to signify the charges against him.

²⁷ Oherwydd, yn fy marn i, peth afresymol yw anfon carcharor ymlaen heb hyd yn oed egluro'r cyhuddiadau yn ei erbyn."
