Genesis 18
Beibl William Morgan
18 A’r Arglwydd a ymddangosodd iddo ef yng ngwastadedd Mamre, ac efe yn eistedd wrth ddrws y babell, yng ngwres y dydd. 2 Ac efe a gododd ei lygaid, ac a edrychodd, ac wele driwyr yn sefyll ger ei fron: a phan eu gwelodd, efe a redodd o ddrws y babell i’w cyfarfod hwynt, ac a ymgrymodd tua’r ddaear, 3 Ac a ddywedodd, Fy Arglwydd, os cefais yn awr ffafr yn dy olwg di, na ddos heibio, atolwg, oddi wrth dy was. 4 Cymerer, atolwg, ychydig ddwfr, a golchwch eich traed, a gorffwyswch dan y pren; 5 Ac mi a ddygaf damaid o fara, a chryfhewch eich calon; wedi hynny y cewch fyned ymaith: oherwydd i hynny y daethoch at eich gwas. A hwy a ddywedasant, Gwna felly, fel y dywedaist. 6 Ac Abraham a frysiodd i’r babell at Sara, ac a ddywedodd, Paratoa ar frys dair ffiolaid o flawd peilliaid, tylina, a gwna yn deisennau. 7 Ac Abraham a redodd at y gwartheg, ac a gymerodd lo tyner a da, ac a’i rhoddodd at y llanc, yr hwn a frysiodd i’w baratoi ef. 8 Ac efe a gymerodd ymenyn, a llaeth, a’r llo a baratoesai efe, ac a’i rhoddes o’u blaen hwynt: ac efe a safodd gyda hwynt tan y pren; a hwy a fwytasant.
9 A hwy a ddywedasant wrtho ef, Mae Sara dy wraig? Ac efe a ddywedodd, Wele hi yn y babell. 10 Ac un a ddywedodd, Gan ddychwelyd y dychwelaf atat ynghylch amser bywoliaeth; ac wele fab i Sara dy wraig. A Sara oedd yn clywed wrth ddrws y babell, yr hwn oedd o’i ôl ef. 11 Abraham hefyd a Sara oedd hen, wedi myned mewn oedran; a pheidiasai fod i Sara yn ôl arfer gwragedd. 12 Am hynny y chwarddodd Sara rhyngddi a hi ei hun, gan ddywedyd, Ai gwedi fy heneiddio y bydd i mi drythyllwch, a’m harglwydd yn hen hefyd? 13 A dywedodd yr Arglwydd wrth Abraham, Paham y chwarddodd Sara fel hyn, gan ddywedyd, A blantaf finnau yn wir, wedi fy heneiddio? 14 A fydd dim yn anodd i’r Arglwydd? Ar yr amser nodedig y dychwelaf atat, ynghylch amser bywoliaeth, a mab fydd i Sara. 15 A Sara a wadodd, gan ddywedyd, Ni chwerddais i: oherwydd hi a ofnodd. Yntau a ddywedodd, Nage, oblegid ti a chwerddaist.
16 A’r gwŷr a godasant oddi yno, ac a edrychasant tua Sodom: ac Abraham a aeth gyda hwynt, i’w hanfon hwynt. 17 A’r Arglwydd a ddywedodd, A gelaf fi rhag Abraham yr hyn a wnaf? 18 Canys Abraham yn ddiau a fydd yn genhedlaeth fawr a chref, ac ynddo ef y bendithir holl genhedloedd y ddaear. 19 Canys mi a’i hadwaen ef, y gorchymyn efe i’w blant, ac i’w dylwyth ar ei ôl, gadw ohonynt ffordd yr Arglwydd, gan wneuthur cyfiawnder a barn; fel y dygo’r Arglwydd ar Abraham yr hyn a lefarodd efe amdano. 20 Yr Arglwydd hefyd a ddywedodd, Am fod gwaedd Sodom a Gomorra yn ddirfawr, a’u pechod hwynt yn drwm iawn; 21 Disgynnaf yn awr, ac edrychaf, ai yn ôl eu gwaedd a ddaeth ataf fi, y gwnaethant yn hollol: ac onid e, mynnaf wybod. 22 A’r gwŷr a droesant oddi yno, ac a aethant tua Sodom: ac Abraham yn sefyll eto gerbron yr Arglwydd.
23 Abraham hefyd a nesaodd, ac a ddywedodd, A ddifethi di y cyfiawn hefyd ynghyd â’r annuwiol? 24 Ond odid y mae deg a deugain o rai cyfiawn yn y ddinas: a ddifethi di hwynt hefyd, ac nid arbedi y lle er mwyn y deg a deugain cyfiawn sydd o’i mewn hi? 25 Na byddo i ti wneuthur y cyfryw beth, gan ladd y cyfiawn gyda’r annuwiol, fel y byddo’r cyfiawn megis yr annuwiol: na byddo hynny i ti: oni wna Barnydd yr holl ddaear farn? 26 A dywedodd yr Arglwydd, Os caf fi yn Sodom ddeg a deugain yn gyfiawn o fewn y ddinas, mi a arbedaf yr holl fangre er eu mwyn hwynt. 27 Ac Abraham a atebodd, ac a ddywedodd, Wele yn awr y dechreuais lefaru wrth fy Arglwydd, a mi yn llwch ac yn lludw. 28 Ond odid bydd pump yn eisiau o’r deg a deugain cyfiawn: a ddifethi di yr holl ddinas er pump? Yntau a ddywedodd, Na ddifethaf, os caf yno bump a deugain. 29 Ac efe a chwanegodd lefaru wrtho ef eto, ac a ddywedodd, Ond odid ceir yno ddeugain. Yntau a ddywedodd, Nis gwnaf er mwyn y deugain. 30 Ac efe a ddywedodd, O na ddigied fy Arglwydd os llefaraf: Ceir yno ond odid ddeg ar hugain. Yntau a ddywedodd, Nis gwnaf os caf yno ddeg ar hugain. 31 Yna y dywedodd efe, Wele yn awr y dechreuais lefaru wrth fy Arglwydd: Ond odid ceir yno ugain. Yntau a ddywedodd, Nis difethaf er mwyn ugain. 32 Yna y dywedodd, O na ddigied fy Arglwydd, a llefaraf y waith hon yn unig: Ond odid ceir yno ddeg. Yntau a ddywedodd, Nis difethaf er mwyn deg. 33 A’r Arglwydd a aeth ymaith pan ddarfu iddo ymddiddan ag Abraham: ac Abraham a ddychwelodd i’w le ei hun.

The Three Visitors
18 The Lord appeared to Abraham(A) near the great trees of Mamre(B) while he was sitting at the entrance to his tent(C) in the heat of the day. 2 Abraham looked up(D) and saw three men(E) standing nearby. When he saw them, he hurried from the entrance of his tent to meet them and bowed low to the ground.(F)
3 He said, “If I have found favor in your eyes,(G) my lord,[a] do not pass your servant(H) by. 4 Let a little water be brought, and then you may all wash your feet(I) and rest under this tree. 5 Let me get you something to eat,(J) so you can be refreshed and then go on your way—now that you have come to your servant.”
“Very well,” they answered, “do as you say.”
6 So Abraham hurried into the tent to Sarah. “Quick,” he said, “get three seahs[b] of the finest flour and knead it and bake some bread.”(K)
7 Then he ran to the herd and selected a choice, tender calf(L) and gave it to a servant, who hurried to prepare it. 8 He then brought some curds(M) and milk(N) and the calf that had been prepared, and set these before them.(O) While they ate, he stood near them under a tree.
9 “Where is your wife Sarah?”(P) they asked him.
“There, in the tent,(Q)” he said.
10 Then one of them said, “I will surely return to you about this time next year,(R) and Sarah your wife will have a son.”(S)
Now Sarah was listening at the entrance to the tent, which was behind him. 11 Abraham and Sarah were already very old,(T) and Sarah was past the age of childbearing.(U) 12 So Sarah laughed(V) to herself as she thought, “After I am worn out and my lord(W) is old, will I now have this pleasure?”
13 Then the Lord said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh and say, ‘Will I really have a child, now that I am old?’(X) 14 Is anything too hard for the Lord?(Y) I will return to you at the appointed time next year,(Z) and Sarah will have a son.”(AA)
15 Sarah was afraid, so she lied and said, “I did not laugh.”
But he said, “Yes, you did laugh.”
Abraham Pleads for Sodom
16 When the men(AB) got up to leave, they looked down toward Sodom, and Abraham walked along with them to see them on their way. 17 Then the Lord said, “Shall I hide from Abraham(AC) what I am about to do?(AD) 18 Abraham will surely become a great and powerful nation,(AE) and all nations on earth will be blessed through him.[c] 19 For I have chosen him(AF), so that he will direct his children(AG) and his household after him to keep the way of the Lord(AH) by doing what is right and just,(AI) so that the Lord will bring about for Abraham what he has promised him.”(AJ)
20 Then the Lord said, “The outcry against Sodom(AK) and Gomorrah is so great(AL) and their sin so grievous(AM) 21 that I will go down(AN) and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know.”
22 The men(AO) turned away and went toward Sodom,(AP) but Abraham remained standing before the Lord.[d](AQ) 23 Then Abraham approached him and said: “Will you sweep away the righteous with the wicked?(AR) 24 What if there are fifty righteous people in the city? Will you really sweep it away and not spare[e] the place for the sake of the fifty righteous people in it?(AS) 25 Far be it from you to do such a thing(AT)—to kill the righteous with the wicked, treating the righteous(AU) and the wicked alike.(AV) Far be it from you! Will not the Judge(AW) of all the earth do right?”(AX)
26 The Lord said, “If I find fifty righteous people in the city of Sodom, I will spare the whole place for their sake.(AY)”
27 Then Abraham spoke up again: “Now that I have been so bold as to speak to the Lord, though I am nothing but dust and ashes,(AZ) 28 what if the number of the righteous is five less than fifty? Will you destroy the whole city for lack of five people?”
“If I find forty-five there,” he said, “I will not destroy it.”
29 Once again he spoke to him, “What if only forty are found there?”
He said, “For the sake of forty, I will not do it.”
30 Then he said, “May the Lord not be angry,(BA) but let me speak. What if only thirty can be found there?”
He answered, “I will not do it if I find thirty there.”
31 Abraham said, “Now that I have been so bold as to speak to the Lord, what if only twenty can be found there?”
He said, “For the sake of twenty, I will not destroy it.”
32 Then he said, “May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak just once more.(BB) What if only ten can be found there?”
He answered, “For the sake of ten,(BC) I will not destroy it.”
33 When the Lord had finished speaking(BD) with Abraham, he left,(BE) and Abraham returned home.(BF)
