1If it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, let Israel now say,
1 1 C�n Esgyniad. I Ddafydd.0 Oni bai i'r ARGLWYDD fod o'n tu � dyweded Israel hynny �
2if it had not been Yahweh who was on our side, when men rose up against us;
2 oni bai i'r ARGLWYDD fod o'n tu pan gododd rhai yn ein herbyn,
3then they would have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us;
3 byddent wedi'n llyncu'n fyw wrth i'w llid losgi tuag atom;
4then the waters would have overwhelmed us, the stream would have gone over our soul;
4 byddai'r dyfroedd wedi'n cario ymaith a'r llif wedi mynd dros ein pennau;
5then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.
5 ie, drosom yr �i dygyfor y tonnau.
6Blessed be Yahweh, who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.
6 Bendigedig fyddo'r ARGLWYDD am iddo beidio �'n rhoi yn ysglyfaeth i'w dannedd.
7Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler’s snare. The snare is broken, and we have escaped.
7 Yr ydym wedi dianc fel aderyn o fagl yr heliwr; torrodd y fagl, yr ydym ninnau'n rhydd.
8Our help is in the name of Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.
8 Ein cymorth sydd yn enw'r ARGLWYDD, creawdwr nefoedd a daear.
