Gwerth y Gair

Mae gair Iachawdwr mawr y byd

Gwerth y Gair

Mae gair Iachawdwr mawr y byd
  Yn dda i gyd yn ddiau,
I gynnal f'enaid wrth ei borth,
  Mewn dyrus orthrymderau.

Edward Jones 1761-1836

The Worth of the Word

The word of the great Saviour of the world
  Is altogether good without doubt,
To uphold my soul at his gate,
  In thorny oppressions.

tr. 2021 Richard B Gillion
