O'm genau na ddwg dy air gwir, I'th farnau hir yw 'ngobaith; Minnau'n wastadol cadwaf byth Dy lân wehelyth gyfraith. Cofia i'th was dy air a'th raith, Lle rhois fy ngobaith arno, Yn d'air mae 'nghysur i i gyd, Yr hwn mae 'mywyd ynddo. Ti, Arglwydd, wyt i mi yn rhan, Ar d'air mae f'amcan innau; Gweddïais am nawdd ger dy fron, O'm calon 'nol dy eiriau. Cyn fy nghystuddio awn ar gam, Yn awr wyf ddinam eilwaith; Da iawn a graslawn ydwyt ti, O! dysg i mi dy gyfraith!Edmwnd Prys 1544-1623
Tonau [MS 8787]:
gwelir: |
From my mouth take not thy true word, For thy judgments long is my hope; I will constantly keep forever Thy holy lineage of law. Remember for thy servant thy word and thy judgment, Upon which I put my hope, In thy word is all my comfort, That in which is my life. Thou, Lord, art to me a portion, On thy word is my purpose; I prayed for protection before thee, From my heart according to thy words. Before my afflition I would go wrong, Now I am innocent again; Very good and gracious art thou, O teach me thy law!tr. 2016 Richard B Gillion |
43 Then let not quite the word of truth be from my mouth removed; Since still my ground of steadfast hope thy just decrees have proved. 44 So I to keep thy righteous laws will all my study bend; From age to age my time to come in their observance spend. 49 According to thy promised grace, thy favour, Lord, extend: Make good to me the word, on which thy servant's hopes depend. 50 That only comfort in distress did all my griefs control; Thy word, when troubles hemmed me round, revived my fainting soul. 57 O Lord, my God, my portion thou and sure possession art; Thy words I steadfastly resolve to treasure in my heart. 58 With all the strength of warm desires I did thy grace implore; Disclose, according to thy word, thy mercy's boundless store. 67 Before affliction stopped my course, my footsteps went astray; But I have since been disciplined thy precepts to obey. 68 Thou art, O Lord, supremely good, and all thou dost is so; On me, thy statutes to discern, thy saving skill bestow.N Tate & N Brady A New Version of the Psalms of David in Metre 1696 |
